Sunday SehOOls.-The State Sab
bath School Union, in convention at
Lancaster, June 9Th, in order to push
forward, vigorously, its work, and
secure to every county in the state
such an organization as our own, Sen
eca, now has, resolved to ask each
Sabbath School in the State to con-
tribute one dollar. Tie amount is so
small as not to be felt by the donors,
and yet, if promptly paid, will enable
the State s. S. Union to do much
more good than ever before.
Now let every Sabbath School in
this county on the 21st of July, take a
collection for this purpose and for
ward the amount, whether large or
small, to D. G. Wilson, Treasurer,
Tifiin, who will publish theresult and
tell what has been done by each Town
ship and School.
Remember that each school giving
one dollar will be entitled to the pub
lished minutes of the State Conven-
ton and to a delegate to the next one.
Now friends, to the front all along
the line let the word be passed.
Who'll get the banner?-
d. F. KELLER, Secretary.

New Fifty Cent COunteFfeIts.-We
clip the following description Of new
counterfeit from an Eastern paper,
where they have found quite a gen.
eraI circulation. They seem to be a
close imitation of the genuine. Look
out for them:
The fiber paper has been inflated
by scratchy lines engraved on the
plate. Some Of the points of differ
ence, given in PetersOn's Counterfeit
DetectOr, are that in counterfeit the
head Of Stanton has a different express
sion, the beard is hard and stiff, and
the background somewhat irregular
In the words "United States" the
blank spaces between the body OF the
letter and ruled shading are narrow
and irregular. On the back of the
counterfeit, the hair-lines forming the
turns at the top and bottom Of the
italic letters are heavy; on the gen.
uine they are light and delicate. Ex-
animation with a glass reveals MINER
Gus other points Of difference.

OUR oONYOs SCHOOLS.


Some time since the writer hereof,
advocated, through the columns OF
the TRIBUNE, the propriety Of our
common schools commencing their
regular session about the 1st OF Sep
tember, and continuing under the
same teacher, through the six or
eight months allowed by law, or the
time justified by the condition of the
I treasury. He finds this view 10 be
held by many Of our most intelii-
/ gent school officers and friends Of ed
ucation in the country.
Says Mr.. White, IN the July num-
Der Of the Ohio Educational Monthly,
in commenting on the conflict be-
tween several township boards Of ed
ucation and their examiners in Sum
NIT county, relative TO the granting
OF certificates to incompetent teach
ers: 'Tbe real difficulty evidently
lies back of the examinations. The
abandoning of the New England
plan Of winter and summer schools,
with two sets of teachers, would do
much to remove the present scarcity
Of teachers in the country. A school
opened in the fall and taught six to
eight months by one teacher, is worth
twice as much rs two terms taught
by different teachers. When country
teachers are employed for six to eight
months in the year, there will be
more competent teachers eontinu-
ing in the business"
Would it not be a judiciOus plan to
have a general convention Of OF school
boards, directors, examiners, and
teachers in the county, and have a
clear and definite understanding in
reference TO these important matters
If the hopes of our country depend
upon our common schools, which is
most emphatically the case, why
should not as much importance be
attached to such a convention as to a
stock fair?
The stock fair is needed none the
less, but the educational the more.

Sudden Death.-Mr. David Bowlus,
aged about seventy years, who has
been residing for some time past with
his son at Kansas Station, on Tues
day last came to town on the Find
lay train to visit his daughter and SON.
in-law, Mr.. and Mrs. James Hiett-
living near Muscalunge, and walked
out to their residence, about two and
half miles. Mr.. and Mrs. Hiett
were in town at the time, not aware
that he had intended visiting them.
Soon the children noticed that he
seemed sleeping, and tried to wake
him but could not, and a neighbol
coming along was told by them that
they could not wake their grandfath-
er, when he stepped in to see him, and
found him dead. Fremont Journal.
Mr.. Bowlus was known to many o.
our citizens, having resided for some
time with his son, Mr.. II. A. Bowlusi
in this city. An examination proved
that the cause of his death was disease
of the heart. His age was seventy,
five years.

( Railroad MalteFs.-We give in full
what We know about raiiroads-this
I week.
The Mansfield Herald Of last week
had the following:
"The laying Of the iron on the
T Mansfield, COidwater and Lake Mich
I igan Railroad has been commenced
/ here, at Toledo, and in Michigan, and
I viii be continued as rapidly as pOssi-
I ble. It viii not be commenced at TIf-
+ fin, at present, on account Of the ex-
+ traOndinary price atwhich ties are held
The Company Will carry the ties along
with them ss they lay the rail"
: As the ties in this section are all on
. the ground, the latter part Of the
above article sounds singular. The
Herald probably meant that the
freight on the iron over other roads
was 50 high Is 10 prevent the ship
meDt Of it 10 this city.
The BJadc Of Friday last has this in
regard 10 the bridge across the Mau-
NEE FOR the r., T. & E. Railroad:
yesterday, the Pennsylvania Cen
tral Company awarded the contract
for building the bridge for the Toledo
& WOodvilie road across the Maumee
river at the foot of Elm street. It is
understood that the bids were made
by two firms in Toledo, one in De-
troit, one in Chicago, and others. The
award was made to the Smith Bridge
Company, OF this city, for the erection
OF a Howe Truss bridge TO cross the
river at the foot of Elm street, at an
angle of G5 degrees, with the line of
the current. The bridge will be an
unusually heavy first-class structure,
on heavy stone piers. 1t will consist
of u spans of 100 feet each, and draw
span Of 800 feet; total l, 800 feet. The
bridge, by the terms of the contract,
is to be ready for the iron by the 1st of

1t is expected that during the pres
ent week the work of grading the
