party is entitled to the credit of thi.
noble oonouct; it was through its eff,

The objector may say, these Vast

but their benefit s cannot be estimat.

Business Prospects.

The most gratifying intelligence
the people can have is the universal
expression of confidence and assur-
ance of returning prosperity in ev-
cry line of trade and industry. In
deed,we see no reason whatever why
these expectations should not be
realized. If the finance bill be what
it has been represented to be and
will give the country an additional
amount of currency, with the well
known fact of immense grain crops
now ready to be harvested, there is
no reason why we should not soon
be in better condition than before
the panic. The New York Bulletin
has a strong article of this tone and
in conclusion says:
s'It requires more than an ordinary degree
of Iugubrious research to discover any reason
why the business Of the country should not
henceforth increase and prosper. One of the
best. st.eVidences that the merchants of this city
coincide with US in these conclusions is found
in the marked Improvement in the spirit and
transactions Of trade apparent within the last
two days. A great recovery in confidence is
traeeabIe in all departments of business, and
the recovery of confidence is all that is need
full to q revival of trade. OF course, those
branches of trade which are dependent upon
the seasons demand, show no marked change,
as the spring and summer business is almost
ended in those departments, but, in these ev-
en-, the better feeling shows itself in specu-
lative demand for staple articles, based upon
the expectation that prices will improve, as
well as in more liberal preparations for the
fall trade than have been contemplated !;
while in those trades less dependent on the
seasons, buyers who have been tiundly sup
plying themselves from hand to mouth show
much more courage in their purchases"

LAKE SIDE CAMP GROUND

EDITOR FREMONT JoURNAL-Dear SIR: we
are asked many questions about the Lake Side
Camp Meeting-such as; when will it beP
where &c, and by your permission would
answer once and for all.
Over year ago beautiful site of some
thirty acres was given to the Northern Ohio
and Central Ohio Conferences Of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, for camp meeting
purposes. The first camp meeting was held a
year ago, the second will begin Tuesday, July
2sth, 1874, and continue eight days.
Lake Side is situated near the extreme point
of the Peninsula between Sandusky Bay and
Lake Erie, about twelve miles from Sandusky
City, ten miles from Put-in-Bay, four miles
from Kelley's Island. 1t fronts the north and
affords an excellent view of the surrounding
islands.
How to get thereby steamer Ferris, which
makes two trips daily during the meeting,
from Sandusky City; fare only 25 cents. Or
go on L. S. & NJ. S. R. R. to Port Clinton and
take the hack.
What you need there-You can furnish
your own tent or rent board tent containing
two rooms, an upper and a lower story, cost
ing at the rate of three dollars apiece if two
persons only occupy them; Sl.50 for four per-
sons; sl.00 tor six; IS cents for eight persons.
Eight to twelve can be accommodated in these
rooms. Bedsteads and chairs can also be
rented; or can be bought on the ground at
Sandusky retail prices for such purposes
Several families together might make arrange
ments to have the use of the same cook stove
or good furnace can be made out of the
stones which are as plenty and as cheap as
dirt. And if you don't know how to manage
in these things call on some old soldier there
will be hundreds of them there.
Straw you can get on the grounds, also
wood, bread, beef, &C., all family groceries fol
about the same prices as at home, and it will
cost you no mora at Lake Side than at home
unless you eat more and have more to helr
you; but it is expected that everybody
preachers included-will come prepared to
take care of himself, as the days of Methodist
hotels have passed by and sponging is at a
u4SCOuAts Dub pIONlS4OH Is mdQ6 IOE Ln6 I'M
provident if they bring the stamps; at so cts
meal, 125 cts. a day, or eight dollars for the
eight days.
Don't forget your straw tick or mattrass
also wooden blankets, and wooden undergar.
ments, because of the lake breeze, the excel.
lent shade. Ice water is furnirhed tc
every part of the grounds in abundance, free
of charge.
Be sure to secure your tent early, by writing
to S. R. Gill, Port Clinton, Ottawa County
Ohio.
a large gathering and soul refreshing
time is quite certain. Bishop Peck, Drs. Ed.
dy, Hoyt and many other eminent men art
expected to be present. And infinitely above
all it is hoped and prayed that the Lord oi
Hosts be with us in mighty power.
The invitation is to ALL. Comel It MAY
do you good soul and body; and such will nc
doubt be the case if you desire it as earnestly
as

The Tilton-Beecher Scandal

And now comes Mr.. Ovington, a
whose house Mrs. Tilton is staving
and Mr.. Ovington says:
Now it is but justice to Mrs. Til
ton that should say that neithe.
this subject nor the coming before
the Committee was introduced by
one of the Ovingtons to her, but OF
the contrary she sought for counse
of friends, and having already de
eided upon the steps she subse
quently took, naturally advised will
any of the church with whom she
came in contact. In view of the
above, it devolves upon me to de
clare most emphatically that the ap
pearing of Mrs. Tilton before the
Committee was an act pressed upon
her by no one, but entirely volunta.
ry on her part; and further, that it
requires no persuasion from any
quarter to induce her now to stand
upon the side of truth, honor, and
justice. l wish to state also, from
my knowledge of the facts, that Mrs.
Tilton informed Mr.. Tilton on Sat
urday morning last, that in conss-
quence of the course he had taken,
hencefortn their paths were awart.' y
I desire further to add that, though
disappearing of the stand Mr.. Tilton
has taken in this matter, he has been
and is frequent visitor atmy house.
The New York Herald says:
The question of the legal separa,
tion of Mr.. and Mrs. Tilton is now
in the hands of Mr.. N. B. Morse, the
stepfather of Mrs. Tilton, and who
has been her husbands intimate
friend for many years. Mr.. Tilton
left the whole matter toJudge Morse,
to act as Mrs. Tilton's counsel. Mr..
Tilton declines to employ an at
torney of his own, saying that his
wife shall possess the house and all
its contents, that the children NAV
reside with her in some semblance
of the old home. Mr.. Tilton will re-
side at home, and his house will be
managed by his eldest daughter. Miss
Florence Tilton, until the papers of
separation are executed in legal
form.
The Brooklyn Eagle says:
Friday morning Mrs. .Tilton gently
communicated her proposed with
drawal from Mr.. T.'s ROOT, and soon
after they quietly separated. Mrs.
Tilton declines to make any public
statement of the reasons which have
induced her to take this step. but she
is understood to say privately, that
life with man who kept dragging
her name through the mire Of
controversy became intolerabIe
She was prepared to suffer
at the hands of strangers but
when her husband joined the band
of defamers she felt constrained to
move in her own interest. She
deems it not less a duty to herself
than to her children to show in what
estimation she holds those who
have been trying to make her name
a by-Word In the world.
