Great Forum es.

We have long thought that volume of
authentic and well written sketches of the
most eminent self-made men of America,
telling in what way and by what efforts
this success was attained, could not fail to
prove an exceedingly popular and sue
cesssul book. Such volume now lies
on our table, from the press OF E. HANNA
FORD & Co., publishers of FIRST CLASS
subscription books, Cincinna ii and Chi
cago, under the title of "Great Fortunes
and How They were Made; or, The
Struggles and Triumphs of our Self
made Men," by JAMES D. McCABE, Jr.
"Great. Fortunes" is really elegant
octave OF 633 pages, illustrated with 80
originsl and remarkably well executed
wood engravings, mostly full page. 1t
describes the careers not only of our mer-
chant princes and heavy capitalists, but
also of leading inventors, publishers, ed
itors, lawyers, artists, preachers, authors,
actors, physicians, etc.
1t shows how poor boys, without
friends or influence, have risen to the
front ranks of American capitalists how
fortune Of forty millions was won by
poor schoolmaster; how thirty millions
sprang from one Thousand dollars saved
by determined young boatman; how a
newspaper that was first published in a
cellar has become the wealthiest journal
in the land; how a cabinet makers ap-
prentice made the world his debtor, and
built up an immense manufacturing busi
ness, which is now conducted in the lar
gest building in the United States; how
the invention ofs poor schoolmaster Gre
ated one of our m ost important nation al
industries, and made many States rich
and powerful how a printers apprentice
made his way in the world, and became
the head of the largest publishing house
| in America.

Mr.. S. L. MOONEY, of this place, has a
petition which asks the Ohio Legislature
to repeal SO much of the law passed in
1870, as places the railroad between Ma
rietta and Wheeling under the control of
any other Company; or the passage of a
Law compelling the Company, under
whose control the road has passed, to
open the road.
This matter Is important to the citizens
Of this county, and We hope they will sign
the petitions without hesitation.
