Literature. Art and Song.

This is the title of one of the most
interesting and beautiful books that
has been offered 10 the public for many
year. 1t is certainly rich, rare, and
handsome, combining the humor of an
ecdote, the wisdom of essay, the sweet
ness and grandeur of poetry, the won
ders OF engraving and charm Emusic.
1t is spoken Of in the highest terms by
the press throughout the country. 1t
gathers in a single, solid volume, the
highest order of literary excellence, to
which is added the rare beauty and in
terest of illustration. There are hum
dreds of beautiful illustrations that
picture almost every thought and shade
OF feeling in human experience. 1t is
only necessary to mention the name of
the author Of this critical review of the
Lyric Poets-Dr. r. Sheldon Mackenzie,
to'illustrate the character of the work.
Any one who is familiar with illustra-
tions and designs, need simply to be
told that Daniel Maclise, of the Royal
Academy Of London, is the author of
these illustrations, to convince him of
the great value Of the work. 1t is pub
lished by the International Publishing
Co. of New York. The publishers, in
order that the refining influence of this
rare volume may be felt all over the
land, and fill multitudes of hearts and
homes with pleasure, present with the
work to every subscriber copy of the
magnificent steel plate engraving
''The Happy Return" This beautiful
engraving is nearly three feet long by
over two in width. Miss Sherrod of
Wayne county, is now in town solicit
ing subscribers, and, although just ar
rived. has taken quite a number of Or
ders already. We recommend the work
highly.

Never Relinquish your Object.

Never relinquish the great object Of
your ambition; whatever it may be-
Let it be, more or less distinctly, evel
present to your mind. Let it exert d
controlling influence over all your ac-
tions. In the first place, have some def
mite aim to your life-some distinct and
leading object of your ambition; and
be ambitious to accomplish it. An aim
less, objectless life is . dull and dreary
waste. 1t lacks stimulous, zest, and en-
joyment. -it s.iF-
In choosing an object of ambition,
choose worthy one, in behalf of which
all the higher and nobler faculties of
your nature, may be enlisted. Have an
aim that you may unblushingly and
proudly exhibit to the light of the day,
and for which you may safely challenge
the respect of all. Then pursue it earn
estly and steadfastly. No matter what
Encouragement assail you, or what OBJ
stacles present themselves in your way,
keep right on in the pursuit of your OBJ
ject. If your progress be slow, still per-
severe, and make it sure.

Lock Out for Him,

We learn from the Canton Republican
that man calling himself David Mill
er, representing himself as being from
Canton, and as agent for the Aid Socie-
ty, has been in the neighborhood of
Walnut Greek and Berlin, in this coun-
ty, collecting money for the sufferers by
the Wisconsin fires. He is reported as
swindler, and not the David Miller of
Canton. Look out for him. The Aid
Society have never sent an agent into
this county. T4-sF rr4as 4

A Petition

To Congress to prevent the calling OF
any more children by the name Of
George Washington is in circulation
out West. Something like this is due
70 the memory of the great virginian.

The leaven of that ''little hatchet'

name' and in the dearth of cherry trees,
their mischief rises to the level of every
crime upon the calendar.

Plttsburg & Continental r. r..

In another column will be seen a no.
tice of meeting held in Kenton some
time since in the interest of the above
named road. 1t is the firm belief of q
good many that this road will yet come
through this county, notwithstanding
the general belief that it would be To-
Gated north of us. We have understood
that Judge Strangham,who has been ap-
pointed chief engineer of the road, gave
it as his opinion that the road would
pass through this county.

. Good Wires.

Good wives are better conservators of
the public peace and morality than po-
licemen, magistrates, prisons, statutes,
and all the terrors Of the law. Let a
man be thus home anchored, and have
an interest in house and lot, and ex-
cept that he is radically bad, he becomes
self appointed guardian of the peace
and of the public morals.

A 0ueer Shit.

The Oregon Bulletin says: Amasa
Swaringem, native Of Tippecanoe
county, Indiana, but an immigrant to
Yamhill of SO many years as TO almost
be q pioneer, is TALL gaunt, ghost-hke
looking fellow, whose small gray eyes
twinkle like two koohinoors in a mud
hole, and whose hair stands on end like
box OF tallow dips when fickering in
potato socket. He, about year and
a half ago, married a young woman
who shortly afterward was taken sick,
and has since been ''under the weather
to such degree as TO be unable TO at
tend to her household duties, and a
greater portion of her time has been
under the care of a physician, who, how
ever, has not been able to restore her to
health.
Amasa had become tired of having a
sick wife on his hands, and would
doubtless institute a suit for divorce if
the law made sickness cause; but as
he has no grounds upon which to base
a complaint for divorce, he has struck
upon the original idea of suing his
father and mother-inl law for damages.
In his complaint he AYERS that the
parents of his wife imposed upon him
by representing that their daughter was
of sound constitution and of good
health. BY reason of these fraudulent
representations he was induced TO mar,
ry her; that since the marriage he has
discovered that the representations
made to him were false /; that by reason
of the deception practised upon him he
has been put to an expense of $500 for
medical attendance and the services of
nurse, &C.. that he has been deprived
OF the society of his wife, who, because
of her sickness, has been peevish and
cross, and thereby rendered him un-
comfortable by scolding; for all of
which he thinks the court ought to
award him damages in the sum of
81 600
