A hardshell preacher had New
England family move into one Of his
circuits. AS he walked forth once at
eventide. his ear was caught by
concord of sweet sounds borne upon
the breeze. He stopped to listen,
and exclaimed with rapture: Was
ever such a set of sheep-bells heard p
He was listening to piano-forte for
the first time.

"Do you call that a veal outlet,
waiterT' said an old gentleman din
ing at a restaurant. Why, it's an
insult to every true calf in the eoun-
try" +" Well, sir, didn't mean to
insult you" returned the waiter.
No man ever sank under the bur
den Of to-day. It Is when to-mor-
rows burden is added 10 the burden
Of to-day that the weight is more
than man can bear.
A philosopher says that true man
never frets about his place In the
world. but just slides into u by the
gravitation OF his nature, and swings
there as easily as a star.

Hence, you will note that a party
at St. Louis pays but 3 cents more
per barrel on -four, l3 cents, per 100
pounds, on bacon; and 13I cents,
per 100 pounds, on corn, than the
shipper pays on the same article
from Knoxville. The distance from
St. Louis to Atlanta is 700 miles,
and 210 miles from Knoxville to At
lanta. And the shipper at Bristol
poys 25 cents more per barrel on
-four, II cents more per 100 pounds,
on bacon, and half cent more per
100 pounds on grain, than a party
shipping from st. Louis the distance
not being half as great. And the
shipper at Bristol pays more freight
on his bacon to Atlanta than if ship
ped from Baltimore. Boston, Phila-
delphia or New York, when those
cities are more than thrice as far
from Atlanta as Bristol. And I am
advised, that similar rates apply to
Augusta, Macon, Montgomery and
other Important points South. am
also advised that similar reduced
rates of freight exists from Louis
vile. KY. Cincinnati. Chicago and
other points West and East. You
may ask how does the West and
East transport their products so
much farther, and, comparatively, at
SO much less cost than you do? I an

FOREST FIRES.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 2-The citizens at
Russell, KY, yesterday, were making
eXertioDs to prevent the tlre
from the surrounding woods from burn
ing their town. The woods for thirty
miles back of them were on tire,a great
deal of damage being done.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 3-The fires in
FIVE forests in the southern part of Fair
field county sent such a dense smoke
iuto Lancaster to-day that the gas
lamps had to be lighted.
The forest fires between Bainbridge
and Bonneville, Ross county, so COM
pletely destroyed crops, fences, live
stock and houses, as to leave many far
niers destitute. Measures are being ta-
ken for their relief
FORTRESS MONROE, Nov. 2-Rafn
has not fallen in the Lower Peninsular
counties for more than month, and
vegetation is suffering.
a large fire is raging in the great
dismal swamp.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 3.-River men
report that on the banks of the Ohio
river from Ironton to Marietta, for q
distance of one hundred miles the for
ests are on fire. The smoke is so dense
on the Ohio river as to make naviga-
ton impossible. The fires in the pine
forests in Fairfield county are still rag
ing furiously. The fires in the swamp:
at Akron rage fearfully.

Correspondence OF Belmont Chronicle.
Hollow Eve was but is not 1t is

only thing that become gone at the
same time, no one would murmur, but
when garden-gateS, shoeEiaker's signs,
milliner's show cases, store boxes, hen
coops and ether valuables accompany
it to the re.,ions of the past and gone,
its going will be sadly deplored. Gas
posts were .uade to do duty as gaIlow5
for the suspension of reprobate cart
wheels, gates, c0al-scuttIes, etc. Boys
will be boys! If men were as unavoid-
ably destined to be men at all times it
would bel cause of thankfulness.
Last Sabbath was observed as a sea-

Gen. and Mrs. Cowen left here for

We regret exceedingly to chronicle

The Sunday School Jubilee at the NJ.

so much of a success that it was resol-

Miss Mellott played and sang several

Boys begin to think of sleds and

THERE has been no case in Court for
a year past that has elected more gen.
eral interest than that of Abraham Ely,
tried last week for perjury. There has
been good deal OF talk about the jury
before which the case was tried. They
were about as good a set of men as
could be procured in the county, and
certainly not prejudiced against the
prisoner. Politically, seven of them
were Democrats and five Republicans,
although that fact had nothing to do
with their selection. The case was per-
fectJy plain, and the verdict could not
be other than it was. The Court ap-
pointed Mr.. Lewton as attorney for the
defendant, and Mr.. Ely's friends raised
an outside fund and employed Mr.. j.
F. Dayton, of Steubenville, TO assist.
Mr.. Hollingsworth managed the case
on the part of the State.
There was large crowd in the Court
room on Saturday evening when the
verdict was rendered, and among 9TH
ers few who felt that they had almost
personal interest In the decision.
They were those who were guilty a.
the prisoner himself; who have repeat
edly committed perjury before the
grand jury, before the Justice of the
Peace, and before the Court, when
brought up to testify in liquor cases.
| We trust that before loug some ofthem
may hear the same verdict read out in
| i'm their individual cases as was read ont
against Abe Ely. They were loud in
their denunciations of the verdict on
Saturday night, and on Sunday. II
will be for the welfare of society if some
of them learn the meaning of perjury
soon, even though they have to go to
Columbus to learn it. An example has
been set. Let it be followed promptly

generally. The results in the large
States of New York, Pennsylvania and
Illinois, are not sufficiently clear to
warrant us in indulging in specula tions
regarding the political complexion of
the next House of Representatives.
For the present we leave our readers to
CLEAN what "crumbs of comfort" they
can from the returns.

NOTWITHSTANDING that lotteries
have been in favor from the earliest
times, and great fortunes made by
those who are willing to risk little fol
the chance of getting much, there is q
good deal to be said against-them.
And a good deal has been said against
them, so that thousands who would
| like to take chance are kept from il
by the notion that it is not moral
to make fortune at one lucky stroke.
Then there are so many bogus schemes
offered, in which the tickets are all
blanks, managed by unknown persons,
| in whom the public has no confidence,
that cautious man naturally hesitates
before investing even small sum.
Such prudent people now have a
chance try their luck in magnificent
|srheme, where everything is fair, and
the chances great. The Public Library
of Kentucky will give its fifth and last
gift concert at Louisville, on the 30th of
November, 1874. Two and a half mil
lion of dollars In cash will be distribu-
ted in twenty thousand prizes, the
highest of which is $250,0O0 cash.
Whole tickets cost only $50, and a
tenth of a ticket, or one coupon, s..
The concerts, of which this is positive
Iy the last, are under the management
of Gov. Thas. f. Bramlette, of Ken
lucky, associated with other gentleman
of the highest cbatacter and standing.
