Let Us Have a Re-Union.

The 126th o. V. /. was organized at
Camp Mingo, near ST. ubenyille, Ohio,
ON August 22d, 1862. 1t WAS composed
of companies raised in different pOr-
tions of the State, and but few military
organizations participated in more en-
pageInents during fhe rebellion, but
few lost more men in battle, and none
returned from the field of strife with a
better record for discipline and courage
than it. When, however, the conflict
was ended, and the regiment mustered
cut of the service, these companies, (Or
rather the surviving members Of them, }
returned to their respective counties,
re-engaged in peaceful avocations, and
since that time a large portion OF the
officers and men have not seen and but
seldom heard from each other. Near
ly all other regiments have had their
reunions, but the 126th o. vi. has
had none. This should have been 9TH
erwise... The undersigned have there
fore thought it net improper on their
part to make an effort to have q re-
union of the regiment. They accord
ingly urge as many members OF the
I26th @. V. l. rs can conveniently do
90. to meet with them in Cadiz, Ohio,
on Wednesday, December 10th, 1874,
at P. NJ, for the purpose of forming
an organization and making prelimi-
nary arrangements for a reunion of
the whole regiment In August or Sep
tember of next year. Comrades! /! let
us meet again, and talk over the stir
ring event. of ten or twelve years ago.

REV. MCFARLAND, fourteen years a
missionary at Siam, delivered a very
interesting discourse to a large and
attentive audience in Crabapple Church
on Sabbath the 10Th inst. His accuin-
plished wife also spoke briefly to ths
ladies of the Congregation at the close
of the sermon explaining to them the
nature of the mission work and urging
the formation of ladies' missionary
society. Mrs. Mcfarland is a sister oi
George P. Hays Esq. who delivered
such an interesting and popular lecture
to the Crabapple Sabbath School ie"
months since.
THE MARRIAGE of Miss Carrie Cos
set was very quiet affair. and there
fore we have no large wedding party
to write up. We can only shed two
or three of our large tears of regret
that such handsome, talented little
lady as Carrie, should be carried of
by Baruesville boy, and to wish the
happy couple many pleasant years in
the enjoyment of welded prosperity
and bliss.

A PROCLAMATION.
We are reminded by the changing
Seasons that 1t is time to pause i'm our
daily ayocatiOns and offer thanks to
the Almighty God for the mercies and
abundance of the year which is draw
ing to close. The blessings of free
government continue to be vOuchsafed
to US, the earth has responded to the
labor of the hushandmen, the land has
been free from pestilence, internal order
is being maintained, and peace with
other powers has prevailed. 1t is fitting
that at stated periods we should cease
from our accustomed pursuits, and from
tbe turmoil of our daily lives, aud
unite i'm thankfulness for the blessings
of the past, and in the cultivation OF
kindly feelings toward each other.
Now, therefore, recognizing these con-
siderations, /, Ulysses s. Grant, Presi-
dent of the United States, do recon-
mend to all citizens to assemble In
their respective places of worship on
Thursday, the twenty-sixth day OF
November next, and express their
thanks, laying aside all political con-
tentions and all secular occupations, TO
observe such day as day of rest
thanksgiving and praise. -
In witness whereof, have hereunto
set my hand, and caused the seal Of the
United States TO be affixed. Done at
the city of Washington, this twenty
seventh day of October, in the year

Sneaker of the House Of Representa-
tives since the Thirty-Fifth Congress,
which organized in December, 1857, by
the election of Hon. James l.. Orr, OF

Congress will be organized, unless some
extraordinary necessity should require
q special session, in December, 1870, oy
the election of Democratic Speaker.
1t seems evident that the Hon. Sam
Cox, ;of New York, is coming forward
as the most formidable candidate, and
his defeat last session by Mr. Wood is
claimed py his friends will materially

Every year increases the popplari-
Ly of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can &sure our old patrons that it is
kept fllly up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making i. soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clsa. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-gkads. By its use, the hair
grows thinker and stronger. In
badness, It restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, ard care
fully selected fs excellent quality;
and 1 consider it the BEST PREpA-
RATION for its intnAsd purposes"
