 CELEBRATED s W N 5L IG 5{5P OIL '


 Costs bnt Twenty cents per gallon to Manufac- ture, and can be made anywhere in the United States.
 This wonderful Oil, which is about to take the place of Kerosene and other burning fluids, is composed of materials which can be obtained in any country village. Can be made without the aid of machinery. by simply mixing the ingredients together. It has no offensive smell whatever, and is Warranted to be emOn-explOSive. It burns without any smoke, and gives softer and far more brilliant light than any other oil now in use, and is only equaled in brlliancy by gas light The ingredients which compose it are simple and cheap, costing but twenty cents per gallon at the highest, and can be procured in any city or country village in the United States A gallon of the Oil can be made in five minutes, and a whole barrel in less than half an hour. Wherever it has been introduced it takes the place of Kerosene and other burning fluids,

The public are requested to give their attention to the above circular of S J. GOLD, who has been so long engaged in the business of Heating, and manufacturing apparatus for it.
 The plan upon which this new ap- paratus is made and operated is entirely new and novel.
 It is constructed upon the most sim pie and yet the most eHeetual principle of Heating yet discovered. There are a number of them now in operation in different parts of the coun- try, and the results of the trial have been very gratifying to both the invent l or and manufacturer.
 The economy in the use of fuel and its heating capacity is truly wonderful, no such results having ever before been achieved by any previous invention.
 It is only designed in this notice to call the attention of the public or any who may wish to secure what the in- ventor says in his circular above,- "ample warmth without injury to health, ,"-to this new invention which probably will come into general use in all our country homes, as well as in the homes of the wealthy who live iu the large cities and towns. It is subject of interest to all who have homes where health, comfort and pleasure are sought after.
 EAny person who may wish par ticulars about the size, price or descrip- tion of the apparatus, or any informa. tion whatever, are requested to call and see one in operation, or address

\ NEW 8TSTEM
Warming Buildings,
 INVENTED BY STEPHEN J. GOLD. Patent dated Aug. 1, 1sTl.1

YESHE INVENTOR, who has been actively engag- A ed for the past twenty years In introducing to ! the public his several systems of Warming Build ings with Steam and Hot Water. by methods well known throughout the United States and Canadas, has, at the solicitation of numerous friends finally produced . more economical Heater, which en- bodies all the excellent qualities of Steam and Hot Water heat, with the simplicity of Hot Air Furnace construction.
 Notwithstanding the large sale and universal approval of "Gold's Steam and Water Heating Apparatus" It's responsiveness has impeded it's general introduction and use. To remedy this de feet has long been the study of the inventor, who is now satiehed that in this new Heater, he has secured the only plan whereby persons of moder- ate means can enjoy in their homes, the comfort of ample warmth without injury to health :: and that his new method mee.s demand long felt and must when well known, aeuperseds al. other Heaters. No one desires if it can be avoid ed, to put into his home heater which will cer- tainly impair the health of those who inhale the sir vitiated by contact with highly heated surfaces All other Hot Air Furnaces DO heat the air too hot because Of the very limited amount of superficial surface exposed to the Are, 60 that much of the surface is ofeA heated te rsdness; the proportion of surface to the aaRs sise of Are h this new System, is RER TIMES sR&A11s than the coAnoa Hot Air Furnace and nc part is ovsrheatsd; in. deed 1t ia adjusted sucA correct scientific prin- ciples, that every part of the sarfaee is equally warmed.
 In the new Furnace the valuable resaN is secured of an apparatus with all the merits of . Steam Heater, with the simple construction of the Hot Air Furnace avoiding all the deleterOus effects of that kind of heat.

Is it Right?

We are informed that it is castoma-
ry for the Grant boys in bronze to
take the fine lanterns belonging to the
steam fire engine of this village to be
carried in their ranks while on parade,
and that ON Friday evening last they
were taken by these bummers and
carried to Rootstown. By what right
or authority this is done we are at q
loss to know. All the appnrtanences
of the fire engine are the property of
the corporation, paid for by the taxes
of the whole people, and no one has
any right whatever to appropriate
them to any other use than that for
which they were purchased. 1t was
regarded as great wrong to employ
the engine to fill the exhausted reser-
voir of the Etna House short time
ago, although the proprietor was rea-
dy and willing to pay literally there
for and nobody was inconvenienced
thereby, but these GRANTEES think it
is quite proper to use this public prop
erty in their party parades and even
to take it away from town for that
pucpose. 1t win probably be of little
use to protest against this wrong, for
these GRANTEES have the power and
mean to run the concern to suit them
selves regardless of the rights or in
terests of the people.

If the Grant-Duncan. side-show
which commenced its performances in
Louisville, on Tuesday, don't nomi-
nate Grant it will be because they
think they can do him more service
by nominating Q third candidate
Will honest, patriotic men be deluded
into continuing in power the present
corrupt and despotic dynasty by any
such shallow pretext? Will any DEM
ocrat allow his personal prejudices
and hates to so far control his action
as to in any way, aid in perpetuating
the tyrannical rule of the present Ad-
ministration? Will any one who pro-
poses thus to act give us single rea-
son to justify his courses single OBJ
ject he expects to gain thereby2 Can
any man who has for years denounced
the nepotism, the gift-taking, the pub
lie plundering, the carpet-bag robber-
les. t Q usurpations and tyranny, the
centralizing schemes of the party in
power, find any justification in his
narrow personal prejudices for aiding
in continuing these great wrongs?-
Let us throw our prejudices and past
differences to the winds, and like men
acting for the best interests of our
whole country present united front
TO the authors of these wrongs and
march forward to a glorious victory.

The Grant stumpers denounce Mr.
Greeley as traitor, declaring that he
was in favor of a surrender in the
midst of the war and of paying for the
slaves of the rebels. They parade as
proof of these grave charges his let
ter to President Lincoln, in July, 1854.
That letter embraced these proposi-
tions:
Ist. That the Union be restored and
declared perpetual.
End. That slavery be utterly and
forever abolished throughout the Uni
ted States.
Sd. A complete amnesty for all po-
litical offenses. with restoration of all
the inhabitants of each State, to all the
privileges of citizens of the United
States.
4th. The Union (North and Soufh)
to pay four hundred million dollars
In compensation for the losses of 10y
al citizens by the abolition of slavery.
9Th. The Slave States to be entitled
to representation in the. House on the
basis of their total, instead of Federal
population.
9th. That National Convention be
assembled as soon as may be, to rati-
fy this adjustment and make such
changes in the Constitution as may be
deemed advisable.
Now, all these facts were as well
kdown to these virtuous patriots in
1864, when he was chosen to head
their Electorali ticket. and. made by
them President of the Electoral Col
lege by which the vote of the Empire
State was cast for Mr.. Lincoln. They
wers. aware of all this when in 1867
they elected him member of the
Constitutional Convention of New
York, and they were not ignorant of
it W hen they placed him on their Ma
tional Republican Committee. Oh,
no none of these things were laid
upzgMnst him then. ss
But suppose Mr.. Greeley's sugges-
lions had been adopted in 1854, what
would have been the result? Mine
months of terrible war avoided q
hundred thousand brave soldiers nm
sacrificed a thousand million Of treas
ure and debt saved; the Union re-
stored and made perpetual; slavery
abolished forever; universal amnesty
and universal suffrage established.
That would, indeed, have been q ter
rible thing for the Grant patriots to
cont emplate

What Grant has done.

The Chicago Tribune gives the fol-
lowing schedule of Grants official acts
which we commend to the careful
consideration of candid and intelligent
readers. 1t says: f:sr,isfl-
He has accepted gifts, and reward-
ed the givers with office. 2s
He has tampered with the indepen-
dence aud integrity of Congress, by
personally soliciting members to fa-
vor his San Domingo scheme.
He has employed the army to do
the work of a constable, and has sus-
pended the writ of habeas corpus in
time of profound peace.
He has upheld the infamous carpet
bag-rule in the Southern States, and
thereby impoverished the white pet !.
pie of that section. q
He has mepaced the independence
of Havti, while protesting to be the
especial friend of the colored race.
He has shamefully abused the ap-
pointing power, by selecting for his
cabinet the commonest of men, whose
names-spelt by the unlettered muse
had else remained unknown. II
He has set himself up for second
term in an Office which he must know
and which he half confesses, that he is
unsuited for.
He has ostracised every public man
who has had the independence and
the manliness to differ from him.

Respectfully Declines.

ID. G. Bush, leading Democrat OF
Center county, Pa, having received
an invitation to attend the Grant,
Duncan. 81 Co., side-show at Louis
vile, in a very sensible letter declines
to train in that crowd, and, after no.
ticing that the invitation is rendered
by no one having authority inthe Dem
ocratic party, and of whom he had
ever heard before, he goes ON to say !:
No person outside of lunatic
asylum can imagine that the nominees
OF the Louisville Convention, could,
by any possibility, be elected. The
only object, therefore, in holding that
convention, is to distract our party,
direct votes from Greeley, and there
by directly assist in the reelection of
Grant. But two classes of men will
take part in such a programme-the
one, natural fanatics adhering to our
party, who are always dissatisfied with
what the majority does i; the other, a
class of cOrruptible men, who are be-
ing purchased by the money stolen by
Grants Administration from the peo-
pie. / therefore think you are mista-
ken in saying the honor of no DEM
ocrat can be assailed by participating
In such national assemblage." / see
no particular objection in you GENTLE

abandonment of principles and the
"disgracefu1 abandonment of political

kest. In conclusion, you ask me to

what We Vote Against.


In long and able article Tilton's
Golden Age thus briefly and tersely
sums up the reasons and objects for
voting against continuance of Grants
Administration
President Grant expressed q natural
curiosity to learn what the country
thinks of his Administration. He
must be partially blind indeed, if he
does not see that nothing but gratitude
for his military services could possibly
keep the people from protesting in 8
body against the manifold corruptions
and miscarrisges of his Administra-
tion- In voting against him we pro-
test against q financial policy which
keeps one hundred and fifty millions
of gold locked and useless In the Ma
tional Treasury, defranufng the people
out of eight millions . year, at the
least, while officials and their friends
grow unaccountably rich in . atwelve-
month. We vote against the insult to
International law and the comfy OF
nations as well IS the upurpation of
power in his dealing with San Do
miugo and HaytiS We vote against
the whole policy of ,desposism which
has been enforced in dealing with the
Southern States, treating them as con-
quered provinces, establishing govern
ments essentially foreign over them.
and sustaining these earpet-bag gov
ernments in q system Of robbery and
oppression which has no parallel in
modern times. We vote against the
systematic attempt to array the colored
people of the South as . race against
the native white population, making
them regard the latter IS their enemies
and exciting them to acts of antago-
nism while inspiring them with q
spirit of hatred and revenge. We
vote against degrading the civil ser
vice Of the country into . matter OF
personal fealty and fayoriteism, and
the systematic prostitution of the vast
powers and almost unlimited patron
age Of the government to secure the
re-election of . President whose Ad-
ministration 10 one vast tissue of mis-
takes, frauds and usurpations. whose
foreign policy has made ms laughing
stock among the nations, whose do
nestle policy has well nigh driven
our commerce from the ocean, and
whose extrayagance is unexampled in
our history. And with these eogent
reasons for voting against the re-elec-
ton of President who thinks more
of his dogs than his duties, and who
cares more for his cigar and boon
companions than for the interests of
the nation whose genius, wants, and
possibilities he cannot comprehend,
there is no need Of our instituting in
quiries into his personal habits and
private speculations. i

THE Grant malignants had grand
fizzle at Akron, ON Friday last. Thev
had pap-red Summit county with
large posters announcing that Gov.
Noyes, Ex-Governor Walker, Hon
Simon Wolf, of Washington city, and
Hon. James Monroe would hold forth
on that day. The meeting was adyer-
tised to be held in the grove. At AN
early hour in the morning the cannon
was drawn out upon Court house hill

come the anticipated monster process
sions. After anxiously waiting an
hour or two, and no professions maxi
ing their appearance, the meeting adj
Journed without firing gun, to a hall
where the orators shot off their
mouthssto pretty slim audience for
q mass meeting held in a city of over
ten thousand Inhabitants.

What Carpet Bag Rule has
done in the S0uth-Read the
Infamous Record

In speech recently delivered in
Columbia City, Whitley county Indi-
ana, by Hon. NJ. c. Kerr, candidate
for Congressman at large in that State,
that gentleman showed up the wick
edness of carpet-bag rule in the South
ern States, which has been set up and
maintained over the people of ten
States of the Union by the party in
power-oppressing an already impov-
erished people with unparalleled tax
alton and tyrannical laws, and burdeI-
ing their future industry and resour-
ces by public debts, cruel and disheart-
ening in amount. Read the infamous
record, and remember that the ad-
ministrafion which is asking con-
tinuance of power is responsible for
these acts oftyranny and oppression.
Look at the record of civil robbery,
eaualled only in magnitude by the de-
vastations of war, but ifpossible worse
than the latter, because it will endure
to disturb the hearts, and tax the toll,
and retard the progress Of the people
of those States for many lives. Let
me read the brief but infamous record
nf their debit.

ASSESSED VALUATION.
Anything to Beat Greeley.
The Holmes County Farmer relates

the following:
A prominent Republican in this
town, whose head is slightly TUNED
in devising ways and means to defeat
Greeley, went to Church last Sab
bath. On coming out he overlook q
member of the same religious and po-
litical faith as himself, when the fol-
lowing conversation ensued:
"T1 never go inside that meeting
house again, our minister does moth
ing but preach politics"
"Why. my dear man, he did not
name politics, as well as lean remem-
Der in his Sermon"
''No, but his prayer was full of it,
and he prayed against our party point
blank"
"Why, what do you mean? I did
not notice il"
didn't notice It'll Why, didn't he
pray that corrupt men might be de-
feated and honest men and godly men
be chosen to rule over us 2"
Our ministers should be careful
how they thus pray against the Grant
administration.
