are working up over 1000 feet of lumber per
day.

5000 damages from John Donhouser, owner OF

habitual drunkard for several years.
There is beautiful girl living near Montreal
who, notwithsta nding the fact that she has lost
both legs above her knees has received over a
dozen offers Of marriage during the past year,
and refused them all. One Of her lovers is a
member O the Dominion Parliment. This afflic-

everybody who comes near her.

MATTERS AT THE couNTY-sEAT.
BOWLING GRrkN. March 80. 1871.

BOWLING GREEN, March 80, 1871.
EDITOR JOURNAL; Thinking that perhaps a
word or two from the Seat Of Justice, and vicin-
ity might prove acceptable, will endeavor 70
tell you what we are doing in this city of the
rst-class, and ir fail to tell you all. it will be
partly for want Of time, and partly because
don't know. Our people, like those Of smaller
towns, are nearly all complaining Of hard times;
but we are locking for better as Spring opens
and the roads improve. Farm work is well adj
yanced; thousands Of acres are already plowed
on the prairies, and more oats sOwed than We
have seen this early in the season for years.
Our railroad prospects at present are slightly
mixed, and stock OF that kind is considerably be-
low par; but if we have to wade through the
mud hereafter 10 our communication with the
rest of the world, we have the consolation such
as 1t isl Of knowing that we have done all that
we could to secure so desirable an object, or at
least all that has been required OF us, and II we
cannot have a railroad we are determined TO do
the best we can without il, aud not clog the
wheels of progress by folding our hands and
waiting.
Our citizens, this Spring, seem more than ever
before imbued With the spirit Of improvement;
repairs and building are the order OF the day.
Quite a number of fine dwellings and several
bushes houses are either just complete or are
in process Of construction. The American House
has lately been enlarged, and mine host,
Lease, Of 'Hostetter' fame, is energetcslIy en-
deavoring to complete tie :af.,ion to his Hotel
before the next term of Court, to accommodate
his numerous guests without putting them in the
garrett Hxson's two-stnry frame near the
G ,urt-house is nearly finished; it is intended for
offices. Part of the material for Reeds new
bank building is on the ground, and the founda-
tion is being laid it will be one-stnry brick.
The Thurstn brothers have moved into their
new brick on the corner opposite Leases Hotel.
The Methodist talk Of building a church this
season. Their revival is still in progress with
but little abatement Of interest. The Sons OF
Temperance are doing good work, and have a
large org anization which is constantly increasing
in numbers and influence. Take it all in all,
Bowling Green is not such a bad place to stay.
When the roads get better come and see, Mr.. Ed
itor, il We know whereof we affirm.

Taking the Census In England.

The census of England is to be taken on the
night of the I'd of April, being Palm Sunday
An English census is very different thing
from an American. There are no Deputy Ma--
shals 10 go about at their leisure and time dur
Ing the tyU or three months occupied in the
en- uneration, and there is no quarreling with
the results. During the week proceeding the
tskiS 4 Of the census, blank is distributed to
every separate occupier of a house or OF iodg'
inRs in the United Kingdom. The receiver is
bound. under a penalty of twenty shilling, t.
fill up this blank with the name, sex, age, rank
condition TO head of family, and birth place Of
every person abiding with him on the
night Of Sunday, April 2, stating also whether
any are blind, deaf, bumb, imbecile or iunatic.
On the following day the army of enumerators
collect all these forms, aud any errors are then
Oorree:sd. The work of copying, taoulaIing'
and arrant t:2g the returns will be begun imme.
diately. and BY sSe first Of June summary OF
the whole will be reaGy !sr publication.

John Stuart Mill on Protection.

r has become quite common for those who
uphold monopOlies to question knowledge of
history on the part of those who view the syS
tenn. of Protection as a curse to the mass of peo.
pie in this country. One of our daily papers
,eceutly took occasion to tell JOHN STuART MILL
that he had better study history. We give be-
low n short article on this subject from MILL,
which will account for his knowledge Of istory
hsloR questioned !

ton, 10 he an employment Of the powers Of gov.

promoting the pocuniary gains OF few. say
the intention, because even that desired OBJECT
Is very often not obtained, and never made by
the few, and them alone for the laboring peo-
ple employed in the protected branches Of Indus
try are not benefited.
Wages do not range higher in the protected
than In other employments; they depend on the
general rate OF remuneration OF labor IN the
country, and if the demand for particular kinds
of labor is artihcially increased, the couse-
0uence is merely that labor is attracted from
other occupations so that employment is given
In The protected trades IN q greater nu mber, but
not at higher remuneration. The gain by Pro
lection, when there is gain, is for the employ
ers alone. Such legislation was worthy OF

tion, when the powers Of Legislation were in the

Indefinite Postponement.

From the Ohio State Journal we learn that Mr..
ULLERY, from the Committee on New Counties
reported II. b. B76-To attach a part Of Wood
county to Lucas county, for iad5iaite postpone
ment. Report sgreed to and bill postponed.
1t will be necessary, hereafter, for the peo-
pie Of Wood county to be on the lookout for the
next attempt in this line Of sPoation. We
would also suggest to the Sentinel man, when he
publishes another plundering advertisement, to
give notice to the taxpayers that it is done with
the intention Of plundering them.
The very silence Of the Sentinel proves il to be
accessory before the fact, in this attempt to rob
Wood county of this most valuable tax'paying
locality.

"GENIUS AGAIN ON A BENDER"

SCoTcH RIDGE, March %, 1871.
ED. JOURNAL: Your correspondent was some
what startled on yesterday morning from the
rounding to- at our quiet Corners, of gay rig
from Bowling Green, with all the etceteras, con
sis,iDg principally of two young bloods of that
village. One gave his name as Brewer, who
said he was 10 king after the Sentinel The
others name was Long, Loogfellow or some
thing like that.
After making some scientific observations, aud
determining upon the exact condition Of the
weather, the man who was looking after the
Sentinel itemized the school, business, &C., with
a note on the hotel dinner, (Which he ate vera
ciously) aud then 'had to be off,
They wired in and wired out,
Leaving the citizens still in doubt
OF what they meant by this or that,
And who and what they're driving at.
They went in the direction os Pemberv lille. as
I am told, to look up items and "a few subscri-
bers.' In this thriving village there are two
large stores, trading in butter, eggs, grain, ~, ,
the larger house of the two being that of Mr..
Rosinger. Mr.. X. happened to be in N. Y. buy
ing goods, leaving in charge Teutonic clerk
who understands the English language very
mperfectly, but had been posted in regard to
tricks that are vain.'
The news reaches me that two fast looking
men drove into p, and the man who was in
search Of items made unceremOniOus debut
into the store Of Mr.. r., and whose appearance
at once aroused the suspicious Of the clerk. In
quiry about the price Of butter, eggs &C., failed
tO elicit any reply for some time, as the clerk ev
idenlly regarded them as suspicious charaters.
From the following dialogue, which is reported
to have taken place, it will be seen that the par
ties come to a better understanding Of each 9TH

they were painfully affecting, have been radically
cured in such great numbers in almost every sec.
ton of the country, that the public scarcely need
to be informed of its virtues or uses.
Scrofuous poison is one of the most destruc.
tive enemies OF our race. Often, this unseen and
unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the con-
stituon and invites the attack of enfeeblng or IA
tai diseases, without exciting suspicion of its
presence. Again, it seems to breed infection
throughout the body, and then, on some favorable
occasion, rapidly develop into one or other Of its
hdeous forms, either on the surface or among the
yitals. In the latter, tubercles may be suddenly
in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptons
on the skin, or foul ulcerations on some part Of
the body. Hence the occasional use of bottle
of this Sarsapariud is advisable, even when no
active symptoms of disease appear. Persons af-
flicted with the following complaints generally
find immediate relief and, at length, cure, by the
use of this S1RSAP1RILLA: St. Aiitho-
ny's Fire, Rose or EyysipefaS, Tetter, Salt
