'Messrs. Myers, of Wooster, and

We desire to resent this uncalled
for, unjust and contemplate fling of
the Farmer, and will proceed to do
so by a revelation of the facts, which
very evidently engendered the above
|insinuation. .....t $3.50. .......-,
On Tuesday, August Goth, We
were in Millersburg, in the pursuit
of our legitimate occupation. Dur
ing the day, when in the Butler
House, our customary headquarters,
a promiscuous conversation ensued,
which turned upon politics and con-
cluded by introducing the subject
of betting. An ex-sheriff of Holmes
county being present, remarked that
he would like to put up money on
Greeley's election any sum, from
one to five hundred dollars. We
suggested to him to reduce or make
the bet SO that an ordinary sum
would cover it. He however, per-
sisted in the determination to wager
no amount below a hundred dollars.
We then told him we would ..go him
$780," and pulled out the money.
The ex-sheriff then came down a
peg, saying he was out of 'kale-
seed" just then, but would go up
town and procure it. We urged
him to put up twenty dollars as a
forfeit, which he admitted he did
not have. To show our good faith
and that we "meant business" we
deposited twenty dollars with the
landlord, Joseph Butler, which re-
mained in his possession until the
next day, when we were through
with our work and returned to
Wooster. ,
They are at liberty to call this
'mouth betting if they choose, but
it was of that kind that neither the
ex-sheriff or his friends had the
''sand" to cover with greenbacks.
Don't back down, gentlemenI
Don't blow and brag about what
you will do and then crawfsh and
go 'up town. when you are
brought down to business. .a Is
Our "mouth betting" consisted
in bluffing you on a hundred dollars,
which we still have to accommodate
you with. a.lu. at. , g. 45
For the truth of these assertions,
we refer you to the gentlemanly
Democratic Landlord OF the Butler
House. ....-. ...-...--... ...

Having determined to colonize a

so great, that wholesome tonic, combining
also the properties of diffusive stimulant and
gentle exhilarant, is in many cases necessary to
health, and under no circumstances should be
dispensed with by the sickly and dilapidated
Of all the preparations intended thus to refresh

Hostetter's Stomach Bitters may be cassed as
