SKTTLKD. Some time ago. We mentioned the
case OF q oolored woman, Caroline Moore, who
six yesrs ago gave her Legitimate hid into the
charge OF John knox and wife, colored, who kept
it until n day or two ago. Recently, Caroline
marI1ed VIM. Penn, living near MIddletown, and
then claimed herchild. Knox and his wife refused
to give it up, and the result was suit betor Es-
qniie Frazer. The child was much attached TO
his adopted parents, and did not wish to leave
them but the law on the subject Is as plain as
day, and squire had TO decide that the mother
was the legal custodian OF her child. AS some
compensation for the trouble end expense incurred
in raising the child, Penn paid the costs of the
case, aud gave Knox his note for Sl0O

THE COUNTY MATTERS.

During the past week our new Audi
tor has been very busy trying to ex-
plain matters to his friends and the
people. In the mean time the work in
the Office is far behind, and Robert
Justice ESQ.,, has been appointed Asst.
Auditor, and Mr.. James Hamilton OF
Wooster, has been employed as Clerk,
to assist in getting the levy and tram
script made. We understand that the
Commissioners have signed a paper,
stating that Newton had never said that
che would not resign unless they ap-
pointed Sullivan in his place )" or words
to that effect. We have not seen this
paper, and cannot say positive whether
they have done so or not. One thing is
certain they don't dare to swear to such
a statement, as there is too much direct
proof to the contrary. Such a state
ment, If made, will only tend to make
matters worse. Arrangements are be-
ing made for demanding a thorough in
yestigatien of the other Offices Of the
county.
A call Is being made by the Democrats
who are opposed to the r ing, and wish
to have change in the management Of
the county affairs, TO meet in conven-
tion on the sth Of August, to take steps
toward making new ticket. The peo-
pie are determined to have change in
the affairs of our county, and the Ring
will see that their day is past, that their
sun has set.

~. N" AT NEwARK.-The Newark
American thus alludes to J. N's. posi-
tion as a Philosopher: a.
In the midst of wicked and per-
verse generation, powerless to extri-
cate themselves from the evils which
are the results alone of ignorance and
prejudice, there still remains one pliilo-
sopher who calmly surveys the scene
without prejudice, and who is serene in
the consciousness that the truth which
lie alone holds, or understands, will ul-
timately triumph. Having seen the
triumph of his principles in the great
national struggle, he once more comes
like a true philosopher, patient to wait
but ready to assume all the pressure Oh
the great temperance question. 1t |:
hardly necessary to say that we refer
to the "Immortal j. N" who it is /;
pleasure to add, asks no one to beal
anything for him, but is ever ready tC
assume the pressure, but canyet afford t.
wait till the scales fall from the eyes o
his misguided countrymen. Modes
and unpretending, he alone holds thu
true theory. 10 him all must sooner
or later come. He wields the weapons
of truth, and they are always ready
lie is fully master of the situation, ant
this certainly can be said of no othe
living man. He alone can lit the veil
81. N" will philosophize the Crusad,
business from standpoint peculiarl,
his own, and 60 right on in his worl
conquering and fearless of suppression
superstition, vice and immortality, In
manner and force that will finally quel
everything crossing the great philoso
piers path. HIS majestic and digni
fled appearance upon the stage at one
commands silence and all attention, 70
the reason that his great moral force o
character does necessarily illuminat
! where darkness has reigned for ages.

ANTI-LIcENsE MEErING.-A An anti
license meeting was held in the Court
House last Saturday evening, which
was addressed by Miss Jane Weeden, of
Joliet, Ill. The meeting was adver-
tised to be held in the Court House
Square, but as it began to ram about
the time of opening the meeting, the
Sheriff threw open the Court House,
and invited the ladies in. The house
was well filled in few minutes. The
meeting was opened with prayer by
Rev. Chapman, after which Miss Wee
den addressed the meeting for nearly
an hour. Her manner Of speaking is
pleasant, her voice clear and distinct
She talks rapidly, and has no loss for
language. Her ideas are good, her ar
guments clear and well put. She showed
up many of the evils of lntemperance,
and some of the evils resulting froin
the license system. This lady addressed
meeting in Holmesyille, on Wednes-
day evening of last week, which wa.
we'll attended, and one also in Oxford
Friday evening.

MIsTAKEs.-Why is it, that in every
case where mistake has been made in
the tax duplicates that the party in
variably pays too much instead of toe
little tax? Several parties have taker
their receipts to the Auditor and COM
pared them with his books, and found
that they had been over paid, in somt
cases quite considerable sum. Again
we say, preserve your receipts, and &c
to the Auditor and get the valuation Of
your property, and the number of mills
assessed, and make your own computa.
ton, and then compare it with your re-
ceipt and see If they correspond. In
our opinion thousands of dollars have
thus been over-paid, which surplus can.
not be found in the treasury.

The SHow.-Warner & HendersOn's
Great Circus and Menagerie brought q
large crowd of people to town on Tues
day. About II O'Clock the procession
arrived and passed down Main street to
the show grounds beyond the bridge.
The animal part of the show was small.
Two or three fine lions, and several
baby lions were the most attractive of
this part. The circus performance was
generally good, the trapeze perform
ance of Madam Jutau was exceedingly
well done. She made a flying leap
through the air of sixty feet and lit up
on another trapeze. During the even
ing she also walked on smooth sur
surface with her head down, without
anything to support her. This was done
by suction valves, on the same principle
that fly walks on the ceiling. The air
is exhausted from under her feet by
means of some apparatus. To a person
looking on it seems that she has spikes
in her shoes which she strikes into the
surface, but such is not the case. She
could walk just as well upon marble
slab rs upon wood. We saw it stated
in the Beaver (Pa.j papers last week,
that the Ring Master said, while exhibit
ing in New Brighton, Pa, that Madam
Jatau was native of that county. He
stated here Tuesday night that she was
born in the city of Lyons, France, about
twenty-one years ago. She is Il sample
Of a very remarkably healthy woman.
