The exceedingly nice and delicate
moral sense of the principal mouth
pieces of the Greeley movement, is
shown in the way in which they try
to account for ther overwhelming
defeat in Vermont and Maine. To
put the matter briefly, they charge
that hundreds and thousands of vo
ters in those States, whose natural
sympathies were with the Greeley
ties were bribed iuto voting for
Grant candidates. Having failed
to seduce the honest, intelligent cit
izens of those States from their
allegiance to the Republican party,
these journals now turn round and
SANDER them. Cajolery at first,
and when that fails, calumuy after
ward. This is the treatment which
the organs and orators of the 'Re-
form" party offer the sober and up
right masses, of the country, in the
name of Liberalism"

Home Reading.

One of the most pleasant and noble
duties of the head of the family is to
furnish its members with good reading.
In the times which are passed it was
considered enough to clothe and feed
and shelter a family. This was the sum
of parental duty; but lately it has been
found out that wives and children have
minds, and so it has become a necessity
to educate the children and furnish
reading for the whole household; it has
been found out that the mind wants its
food as we'll as the body, and that it
wants to be sheltered from the pitiless
storms of error and vice by the guard
ing and friendly roof of intelligence
and virtue.
An ignorant family in our day is an
antiquated institution. 1t smells of the
musty past; it is dark spot which the
light of the modern sun of intelligence
has not reached.
Let good reading go into home and
the very atmosphere of that home grad
ually changes. 1t becomes clearer,
purer, more cheerful, healthful and hap.

This is the name of a beautiful new
work published by Ziegler & McCurdy
of Cincinnati, Ohio, who are well
known. throughout the whole coun-
try, and their works are eagerly
sought after. Agents have but little
trouble introducing them, as they al
ways give perfect satisfaction. This
present work entitled "Science and the
Bible" or the Mosaic Creation and Mod
ern Discoveries, is one profound inter-
est. 1t is written in a popular and read
able style. Abstruse terms are avoided
yet the laws of science are all stated
with a clearness and exactness that
amounts almost to surprise. While it
delights the student and scholar, it is
specially adopted to the understanding
of the general reader. The author, be-
ing both learned scientist and skill
full Interpreter of the Word Of God,
clearly reconciles science to the Inspir-
ed Word, without any sacrifice to either
the truths of the former or the literal
purity and beauty of the latter. The
tendency of the day is to make science
hostile to the Bible and q revealed re-
ligion. To one who believes that God
has spoken by His prophets notless than
through His works there cannot posi-
bly, be found any conflict between the
two records. The work is very highly
recommended by host of good men
Mr. Samuel II. Tidball is now canvass
ing this county for subscribers, and we
can gladly recommend it as work well
worth the price asked for it.

Death of Mrs. Harvey Castor.

Mrs. Harvey Castor has for several
months suffered from cancer on hel
breast. For several weeks past she was
not expected to live, so intense was her
suffering, and so low had she been re-
duced. She was sister of Col. Given,
of Iowa, well known IN this and adjoin-
counties. She was woman of great
cheerfulness and resignation. 1t was
her desire to die on Sunday, and just as
that sacred day had closed, she passed
away. She died between twelve and
one O'Clock Sunday night. Her funer-
al took place on Tuesday.

Hon. A. c. Henry.

The Hon. A. C. Henry Of Oakland,
CAL, well known to most of the citizens
of Holmes county, arrived in Millers-
burg on Friday evening, to spend few
weeks with his friends and relatives in
this county. Mr.. Henry has been a res
ident of California for the past twenty
two years. He is staunch Republican,
and says the people of California will
give Grant majority of eight or ten
thousand in November. We were
pleased to make his acquaintance. If
he is sample of the generality of CAL
ifornia men, we have no fears for that
enterprising State.

1t should be borne in mind by those
who will be called upon to vote on the
question of Railroad tax that the money
so expended is not donation, but that
township will own and control por-
tion of the road until satisfactory ar
rangements are made for its sale or least
to the Railroad Co. In the event of this
sale the township will receive stock in
the road and will own and control it.
This stock will, in all probabilities, be
worth dollar for dollar. The stock in
the Hooking Valley R. R., pays an an
nual dividend to its stockholders of
ten per cent, which is high rate OF
interest, and puts the stock at pre-
MUM. 1t is but fair to presume that
this stock which the township will re-
ceive will be worth as much as the
bonds issued.

The Corn Crop.

The corn crop in this county is now
so far matured that we may safely cal
culate that it will be harvested in good
order. 1t is certainly the heaviest that
has ever been raised in the county, be-
sides large increase in the number of
acres planted. Go where you will in
the county, you will see along every
road, fields of from ten to forty acres
each OF as heavy corn as the farmer can
desire to raise or handle. The warm
sunny weather is just what is wanted
to ripen it up and make it ready for the

About the Railroad.

Several of the townships of our coun-
ty will soon be called upon to vote on
the railroad question-namely the build
ing of the Lake Erie, Wooster & Mus
kingum Valley Railroad. We hope our
people will not be found wanting when
the proper time comes for casting their
vote. We may not have another such
chance for long time. There is no
one that will deny that another road Is
greatly needed through our county. As
for getting road running east and
west, there is not the shadow OF posi-
bility as things look at present. We
are all interested in this matter, and the
sooner there is something done in this
direction the better for us. The inter-
ests, welfare and future progress Of our
county demand that we build this road,
and now is the accepted time. The in
creased price that we will be able to OBJ
tain upon our grains and other
products, by the reduction OF
freights will far more than pay the TAX
we will be required to pay for the few
years the bonds will run. The increased
value of bonds will also more than twice
over pay for what money is spent is
building the road. Property of all
kinds will be more profitable and salable
Manufactures will be established, which
are the bone and sinew of town and
country around. The demand for home
consumption will be greater, and the
facilities for shipping being easier, the
market here would hold greater induce
ments. Let the earnest men then in
each of these townships, for the short
time remaining until these elections,
work diligently and increasingly for
this project. Lay aside petty local jeal-
ousies, personal interests and all pull to-
gether in securing for our county one
of the best railroad projecss now before
the country. i''- '.'h.5 ~ ?. ?
From present indications We think
the question will carry by large ma
jority. Votes are being, and have been,
taken in many different points through
out the State, and we have to learn yet
of the first that did not carry by large
majority. This road must be built, and
there is no better and easier way than
the way proposed.

New Marble Shon.

John Getz, formerly of Shanesville,
has located in Millersburg, is opening
out a first-class marble shop. This is
something much needed as there has not
been anything OF the kind for several
months past. Getz is said to be good
workman, and we hope he may have a
good trade, not that we desire to see
our fellow-citizens die.

Be Careful.

In these days, when tight hats, hot
air, and sedendary occupations, cause
the hair to fall out, it is matter of no
little importance to know which of the
hair preparations. are of any value.
The majority, as has been frequently
proved by the first dermatolOgists or
hair-doctors, possess little or nomerit.
Such being the fact, it is consoling TO
those who are afflicted to know there is
really one good article, which is recon-
mended and used by the first medical
authority, and has stood every test,
many years. This preparation is Halls
Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer, a tru-
ly scientific compound, which is un-
questionably the best preparation ofthe
kind now before the American public.
1t will restore to gray hair its original
color, cleanse the head thoroughly, cure
all eruption OF the scalp; and will al
ways restore the hair so long as any
germs remain, as they almost inyariable
do, until extreme old age has destroyed
the roots. The original article is made
