half of the voleis out, and out OF all tire
votes the nominees for Governor came out
thus: Noyes-171; Allen-5S; Stewart 8, and
Collins, 2 votes, making the number of electors

Last Saturday, while Mr. Jerome E. King
of our village, was with Others at work on the
| roof Of the new addition to The Nj. Z. church,
son of his WIS allowed to climb about on
the same, and missing his hold fell to the
ground, a distance OF % feet, and though sus
tanning fracture of the jaw and an obIque
fracture of one leg from the knee up, yet he is
doing well under Drs. Webster and Bard's at
tendance. His escape from instant death was
narrow one as only two or three inches eth
er way from the point where his head struck
he would have encountered a stick of timber
or stones.
The singers of our town are enthusiastic
over the forthcoming Musical Festival in Ash
tabula, and will, dou btless, turn out in large
numbers The only drawback is the extra
expense to members from old rates, as ar
ranged by the present Board of officers; and
yet, it's not the extra half dollar, really, that
hurts, rs much as the principle Of the thing.
From the extra chances Tor an increased rev
enue from concerts and large attendance OF
members, there seemed to be no occasion for
au increase of payment. This. much is said
because II is the common sentiment here.
Our merchants, though not ranking with A.
T. Stewart, are having fair run OF business.
Mr.. A. b. Luce has just got on new stock
of seasonablc gOods--sure to suit the most ias-
tidious. Geo. Campbell is another off the
same piece, and when one can't suit, the Other
will be sure to fix them. .I.t
We must call attention TO some of the re-
suits OF seed contact with the rich soil of MIR
II. j. Gillettc's place, located very pleasan lly
about half mile from our village. This place
now occupied by Mr.. w. w. Kennedy, and al
so offered for sale, Is, at the price put upon it
very reasonable, indeed, when We notice the
following among many facts: This FIVE oi
more acres, has been fitted especially for to
bacco raising, and 3 900 lbs has been, in years
past, taken from "a acres, and 800 bushels o
potatoes from one acre, and this season 22t
bushes-ihey claim-will not be any NOR
| tuhn mas COUt from One-tnlTu Vi uu uCIe
