The amount fur each inhabiant is GO cents.
The books will remain open for every person
to take stock that feels dispused. (and We hope
none that are able will feel indisposed) Tor one
hundred days, commencing ON the 2lst day Of
November, 1872.
The object of obtaining said ten millions Of
stock ID 80 so create fund % erect nn Exposi
ticn building in Fdirmnunt Park, in the-Clty Of
Philadelphia, Of sufficient capacity for the ex-
hibition Of arts, manufactures, aud products Of
tho soil and mine, OF all the States an Terri
tsries uf the Union, and of all the countries ut
the world, aud also to de(ray the incidental ex
penseS OF such exhibition where not otherwise
provided. It is expscted the structure will
cover so acres Of floor space, and b5 built in 4
style worthy Of the occasion and OF the Uhited
States. It is expected the exhibition will be
opened on the 10Th Of April, 1877, aud close on
tie 18th Of tue following October. The holding
Of this exhibition is the mode adopted for eele-
brating the one hundredth anniversary OF tho
signing OF the Declaration Of Independence. Ii
is intended to make the exhibition in every re-
spect worthy OF tho high position The United
States viii occupy on its one hundredth birth
day. Tie stock Of said Board OF Finance is d.
yded intn ton dollar shares, in order To give
every Inhnbitant Of the United States an oppor-
tunity to participate in contributing to the eel
ebrali"n fund.
Those who take stock will have an ownership
in the building and income receipts in proportion
tO the number of shares held.
1t is nOtexpected the stock will be taken for a
profitable investment, but as a patriotic cnutri-
button To aid the celebration, trusting IN the
success uf the undertaking for a return Of the
capital with profit after the close 0f the exhb-
iiiOn. We hope that every person who can con-
Veniently contribute ten dollars or more, will
take one share of stock or more, aud become
directly interested in the greatest worlds fare
that probably has ever taken place. 1t is TX
pcctsd there will be great reduction Of Rail
road fares 10 those attending the exhibition, as
an inducement for everybody to go. II can bs
visited for period Of six months All n1tions
will bo invited TO partisipate. II will be fair
at which can be seen all the excellence in the
aTts, manufactures and products Of the soil an,l
mine which tho several nations Of the world can
produce. The fact that the United States take
this method OF celebrating her ono hundredth
birthday by an exhibition OF the industrial skill
Of its people, aud natural resources Of her soil
In an invited composition with the whole world
is sufficient tn arouse the pride and patriotism Of
every citizen tn cheerfully and zSaously CON
tribute his share in making it properly illustrate
our nations greatness la comparison with the
other nations Of the earth.

The editor of the Noble county RrpnJliean has
been treasuring M these many years, as a
precious relic, an old shell from one of the bat
tie fields on tho Rappahannock. On one OF the
recent sold days roaring FIRE was kept up in
the Office stove, AMI the shell was pnt on top of
4 refractory lid to keep it to its place. 1t of
course became heated, and an explosion oc cur
rad, casting dire CONSERVATION among the EN-
ployees, but fortunately no one was hurt. They
are not likely to use shells for that purpose
again.
