[From the chronological Journal.l
The School Girl of the Period.

One evening lately l put Mrs. S. in my
debt by one of those desultory calls,
which, as near and dear neighbors, we
are accustomed to pay each other, with
only shred of crocheted Berlin over
our hoary looks. The family was assem-
bled in the sitting room. Nellie, the
youngest daughter, in the second year of
her normal course, was wrestling with
to-morrow's lessons, her eyes brilliant,
her cheeks flushed with some keen ex-
citement.
my dear child, you looks like fever
patient" l said in commiseration not
wholly pretended.

the student in ellipsis, laughing in clip
sis likewise $50 have to gain the time.
She struck the spurs into her jaded
steed, and was over the hills in the study
race.
Across the table from Nellie, by the
light of the same lamp, sat her brother
Will, hunting through the evening paper,
and now and then, whenever he brought
down any game worth the while. regaling
the ears of the circle with the same.
Rather frequently such item provoked
laughter and discussion, no one dream

dulged, that they were levying still heav
ier tax on the girls powers of apphca-
ton.
By and by, her mother having left the
room for brief space, Nellie suddenly
closed the book on her finger to keep the
place, and slipped over to the sofa and
me, revealing the fact that she had more
burdens on her mind than yet appeared.
She began by informing me that she had
attended the theatre the evening before;
that the performance was perfectly
splendid" and that Mollie and Sue
Griggs, and Lou Mason and-I have for
gotten who besides of her party-were
going again tonight. But, she added,
sigh fluttering on her lips, then sudden

mother was so different from other moth
ers as seldom to approve of her attending
those places To which l replied that
my judgment was with her mothers, and
there would be time for society when
school-days were past With a swaying
of her head, like a boat in danger of
being swamped, Nellie muttered that one
couldn't keep at books forever And
still perceived that this was not pre-
cisely what had brought the child to my
side. After opening and shutting her

Last week we sent bills to number of
our subscribers. The responses are an
interesting study. One man owed for
fourteen months, and the Postmaster
writes that he is gone, and the woman
with whom he boarded takes the paper
out of the Office. Several who reside
outside of the county have sent the
money for next year, without any COM
ment. One man, in Springfield, Ohio,
who has taken the paper six or eight
years, becomes offended at our rule for
advance payment, and writes as follows ::
"Was not aware that you had any trouble
in getting remittances from me, and
therefore can't imagine why you should
write such note in your bill. Am
very sorry, for 1 intended taking the
paper always, or as long as 1 could re-
member anything of Jackson comfy.
But now you may take my name from
your list
We will drop his name the first of next
month, unless he in the mean time shall
take the correct view of the matter, and
send the money in advance. If he is
afraid to trust US, we have right to be
afraid to trust him.
Another, in a neighboring city writes :
Il like your paper very much, and
think you print one of the best, if not the
best in this part of the country. 1 would
continue taking it, but do not feel able
to do so in these'close times.

future time be prospered enough to war

who owed us since July, 1872. He and
his father came in and paid UP and stop
ped their papers. We were not in the
office, but we learn that they were very
much out of humor.
Now suppose all our subscribers would
make us wait two years and half and
then get mad if we gently limited that
our creditors wanted money. How long
could we carry on the publication of a
paper?
A number to whom we have sent bills
have paid no attention whatever to the
matter yet. If they do not do so during
the present month, they will hear from
US next time in another way as we do
not propose to waste any more postage

THE COUNTY INFIRMARY
BY THE EDITOR.

Last Thursday afternoon l went out to
the 1nhrmary. Business about the depot
and Fulton Furnace appeared to be
brisk, and l noticed a new brick resi-
dence recently put up near the new
foundry of Gray Il Washam, short dis
tance beyond Fulton Furnace A mile
beyond the depot met freight train
with seven cars loaded with iron ore, and
three with limestone. The packing in
the box of one of the cars was on fire,
caused by the friction of the rapid turn
ing of the axle. The smoke and flame
were bursting out at every crevice.
l crossed the wide bottom of Salt
creek towards the Infrmary Here was
an old salt well, and for long distance
around it were mounds and ridges of
ashes from the old salt furn aces
Arriving at the Infrmary 1 saw a
young woman sweeping the pavement,
and inquired for Mr.. Hildenbrand, the
Superintendent He soon came down
stairs, and inquired how many inmates
he now had. He said he had received
27, but one girl had been bound out, and
one woman feared her child would also
be bound out, and she had taken it and
gone. He then got his book, and found
the names of the following inmates en-

WELLSTON.
BY THE EDITOR.

Invent to Wellston last Friday. As
the train passed Berlin l noticed a very
large quantity of pig iron. There were
also piles of hoop poles, and car was
being loaded with them. There was also
a large quantity of camel coal, which
ment and it was thrown upon the ground,
and scattered along for some distance.
Arrived at Wellston I found considera-
BILE excitement A man had been shot
the previous night and it was thought he
would die. As is usual there were con-
ficting accounts. Taking all the stories,
it was probably about as follows: A man
named Miller had some difficulty about
the possession of horse. He undertook
to get the horse he claimed, but took a
him as soon as he could. Some eight
or ten men came from Meigs county to
arrest Miller. At Hamden they were
very drunk. and swore they would cap
ture Wellston. There was dance in a
little frame house some fifteen feet square,

The inmates who had revolvers also COM

the room twice, and l saw where num-
Der of shots had struck the plastering of
the room, and one had gone through the
window. l was told that fourteen shots
could be found upon the walls. 1t is
almost a miracle that more of them were
not hit. The wounded man g name is

unconscious. The ball entered the up

but the ball had not been reached. His

all the good luck that l can,- for it will

men, one and all, friend or foe, l suppose
that you want to know what sold the

to do it. Now gentlemen, one and all, L

What cam the Cincinnati Times mean ?


1t says:
THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL.
Ben Butler, the bets noire of the Repub-
lican party, is preparing for a last desper-
ate effort. Like Sampson, blinded and
shorn of his locks, he apparently harbors
sweet thoughts of revenge which will in
volve the Republican party in the ruin
which has overtaken himself. 1t is given
out that he intends, at an early day of
the session, to bring up the Civil Rights
Bill, which stands second on the calen-
der, and force it to an issue. He knows
there are many Republicans too far com
mitted TO this measure to recede, and he
knows equally well that its passage can
only be productive of mischief. On a
sober, second thought, this scheme OF
the late lamented Sumner Is seen to be
impracticable-as in fact 1t was always re-
garded while he lived-and sure to result
in no possible good to the class 1t seeks
to benefit Senator Frelingnuysen has
much to answer for in reviving this
measure, under the sentimental motive
of carrying out the dying request of a
distinguished associate. The same ten
derness of personal regard, instead OF
the personal considerations which should
control all legislation, Influenced a ma
iority of Senators to vote for the bill, and
thus it came before the House, and was
pending before that body at the close OF
the last session. This is the situation
which gives Butler his opportunity.
| if the Civil Rights Bill is pressed to a
vote a large number of Republican mem
| bers will certainly vote against it. Its
defeat is probable, and we believe even
| those who feel constrained to support 1T
will, in that event, prudently acquiesce
in the rejection as final. Should it pass
the House, and go to the President for
his signature. it is at least very doubtful
whether it will be approved" 1t can
never be passed over a veto.
! We incline to think that Butler will
not find this undertaking, in any event,
as agreeable as he anticipates. His fierce
championship of the measure will proba-
bly, only tend to make its defeat the
more easy.
And in the same column it says:
Not one unnecessary moment should
be lost in getting the opinion of the Su
preme Court of the United States in the
matter of the Indiana school decision.
Judge Buskirk needs shutting up once
and forever. The great danger is that
Indiana's action may spur up Republi
cans in Congress to going further than
either ethics or political wisdom will
justify.
Here the Times urges the enforcement
of the only part of the Civil Rights Bill
which is Objectionable, and that before
the Bill is passed, and it opposes the pas
sage of the Bill itself
