EprroRs REpuBLIcAN: Some of the
readers of your valuable paper may
have a desire to know something of
what is going on in this part of the
county, &c. About a month ago Messrs.
Davis q Hukill began Operations to
open up the old "Holmes Co. Coal
Banks;' and since that time work has
been pushed forward as fast as the un-
suitable state of the weather would
permit. Notwithstanding the Boss
Gushers of this section of country is
telling over the country (by the way
people here pay but little attention to
what he says that there is is''nothing
being done-mere child's play. Three
or four men picking around among the
rocks don't amount to anything" &c.
Here are the facts, the readers of the
REPUBLICAN may judge for themselves.
There are-.23O0 feet of tram-way and
an inclined plane of 800 feet graded,
ready for the ties and iron.
Ties and iron are on the ground and
will be put down Immediately, the
weather permitting. The mines which
were left in a shameful condition, have
been repaired and placed in running
order again, and coal will soon be on
the scaffcld at the bank for sale; the
facilities for shipping coal well be COM
pleted as soon as possible, when it is
thought the business will open up live
ly, &c.
Since the Holmes County Coal Com
pany has become thing of the past We
have been casting about for new
name for these coal mines and have
fixed on the name at the head of this
letter. This is done in honor of for
mer resident of this county; one of her
most noted men; none other than that
victim of this "Tyranical Government"
The "Rev. Petroleum Vesuvius Nasby. :"
Mr.. Editor, will you suggest better
one? More anon. Yours, &c.

Mixing her Errand.


A little girl was sent to the store one
day to buy yard of muslin, quart Of
of syrup, and pound of nails. For
fear she might forget her errand, she
kept repeating them over to herself as
she ran along. Arriving at the store
door, she stqbbed her toe, and fell down
completely demoralizing her ideas and
memsry, so that she made her wishes
known in this way: ''Mr. Storekeeper,
l want pound of syrup, a quart of
muslin, and yard Of nails" 1t con-
fused the storekeeper, and he said he
did not keep the place; and at last
things got SO mixed that the girls
mother had to 20 for the articles her.

Who Can Beat It.

Mr.. A. C. Lloyd, formerly, of this
place but now residing at Grand Rapids,
and who is here at present visiting his
old friends, brought to our office on
last Friday three apples, all plucked
from a tree ON the farm of the late
John Horn, near Mckay, one of which
was sweet, one sour and the other was
half sweet and half sour. The sour
and sweet in one apple seemed to be ex-
actly equally divided, which is some
thing we have never heard of before.
1t is strange amalgamation, but nev-
ertheless strue.-Loudonuille Adrocate.

How to Remove Stains and Spots from
Marble Furniture, etc.

The only stain which Sapolio will not
remove is stain upon the character"
But from marble mantels, tables, china,
table ware, carpets, furniture of every
description, or any article of household
ornament or use, the deepest dyed stain
can be instantly washed out forever by
the use of Sapolio. 1t is as cheap as or
dinary bar soap, and will always do
exactly what is claimed for it, if the
simple directions are followed. -

A Slight Accident.

Now that the hunting season has fair
ly opened, we may expect to hear of &C
cidents from shooting. One day last
week a party were out hunting, among
them the boys in the Former Office.
They were trying to see who would
kill the most game. Some one Of them,
coming upon game suddenly, discharged
his piece, and lodged part of the load
in the hands, head and back Of Mr.. d.
G. Newton. Not being very close, the
shot did not penetrate the skin except
on his hand. Parties cannot be toe
careful when separated short distance
Fatal accidents might thus occur.

Autumn,

Autumn is in nature the fullness of
life; the grain psuntil then its rich
est juice; the tree draws with the whole
force of its nature on earth and trunk
for sap to enrich its perfect fruit; the
flowers whose coloring is the deepest
unfold only at this late day; the very
sky robs the sun of tints which the sum-
ner could not borrow; the cold air is
vital with energy unknown before; it is
as though nature, having finished her
work, and being ready for death, gath
cred all her beauty and power to utter
her life in one glad triumphant hymn.

RAND0M THOUGHTS.
BY THE EDITOR.

1t is Saturday afternoon. Court had
adjourned in the forenoon until four
clock in the afternoon At the after
noon session the Court decided two or
three cases which had been previously
tried, after which the Judge said ''Sher-
if, bring out Charles <. Dcering" The
Sheriff went up to the Jail, and before his
return with the prisoner the Court Room
was pretty we'll filled with persons from
the streets, who desired to hear the sen
tence of the prisoner. Deering is a mere
boy, being perhaps about twenty years of
age. He took seat within the Bar, and
his labored breathing, almost painting
and a tremor observable about his neck
and head, showed the terrible anxiety of
his mind. The Judge told him to stand
up He could not stand still, but kept
moving his hand in nervous manner,
swinging his old hat back and forth
After few preliminary remarks, the
Judge told him that if he had anything
to say why sentence should not be passed
upon him, he now had the opportunity
to do So He spoke in a clear, fluent
voice, saying that he had nothing to say
why sentence should not be passed upon
him. but that it was his first offense, and
he hoped the Court would be as merciful
as possible with him He was then sen
fenced to the Penitentiary, to be kept at
hard labor for period of three years.
According to a statement made by Deer
| ing on his trial, he had been roaming over
the country for some time. He came to
the neighborhood of Portland, got to
drinking, then came to jackson, arriving
in the night He was half drunk, had
not cent of money, was without friend
or acquaintance in the place. Hall
starved, and plenty about him, he broke
into three business houses and stole {
few dollars in each place, being caught
in the very act.
have no excuse to offer for Deering
He deserved all he got But here was
the fat and sleek whisky seller, listening
to the sentence of the man whose crime
never would have been committed had i
not been for whisky. And then there il
the Honorable member of Congress, wht
had age and experience, and fifty dollar
per day, who will deliberately embezzle-
steal, or call it what you may, FIVE thou
sand dollars, and still manage to keel
out Of the Penitentiary. A poor, ignorant
half starved, drunken devil must pay tn
penalty of his petty crimes, but the grea
criminals go unwhipped of justice, I
has ever been thus, and will perhaps con
tinue to be so to the end But that doe
not make it right.
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1873-06-19

There is troublesome paragraph in
Article XIV of the Constitution, which
we hope to see modified:
"4. No person shall be elected or APP
pointed to any Office in this State, unless
he possesses the qualifications of an
elector."
No one would think of objecting to
this under reasonable construction As
it is construed, under precedent, it pre-
nents the appointment of females to
places which they are perfectly compe-
tent to fill. One Governor, as we happen
to know, found it very unpleasant to be
prevented from making an extremely
meritorious appointment of lady as
State Librarian, by this section. For a
while it was construed to prevent the APP
pointment of female clerks, but that has
been somewhat awkwardly avoided by
whipping the devil around the stump"
-COlltmbats journal
There is a very easy solution of this
difficulty. Let the word "male" nowhere
appear in the new, or revised Constitu-
ton. Then women cannot only be ap-
pointed as State Librarian, but they can
be elected to such suitable positions as
Recorder, Treasurer, Clerk, &c.
