Treasurer of State Welch has filed
his reioinder to the contest of elect
ion made by George Weymer, Dem
ocratic candidate last fall, some time
ago. From a summary of the docu-
ment published, we learn that Mr..
Welch valves all legal formalities of
notice and claims that he was le-
gally elected in October last, and
that be was declared as having re-
ceived a majority of votes cast, by
the Legislature in joint session the
Sth Of January, receiving his COM
mission thereafter, and holding the
Office since. Furthermore, he bases
his claims to the Office on the fact
shat in Ashtabula, Champaign and
Paulding counties he received 863
votes, which, owing to errors of the
Election Judges or mistakes of
clerks of the Court, never entered
into the count which was reported
to the Secretary of State. Fur
ther than this, he claims that if ir-
regularities claimed to have discov-
cred by Weimer in the Cuyahogavote
are admitted, he will lay claim to ir-
regularities in Monroe, Crawford,
Holmes, Butler, Muskingum, Han
cock, Jackson, Miami, Noble, Frank
lin and Licking counties, and in six
or seven wards Of Cincinnati. Be
sides this, he lays claim to the Re
publican vote in Stark, Clark and
Darke counties, where many Repub-
lican State tickets were printed with
out his name being upon them.
Admitting only the mistake claimed
in the first instance, he claims to hold
office by majority of S63, or taking
all together, he claims to have re-
ceived a majority of over 600.

Sowing Timothy.

The RUral Ne1O Yorker says: We
prefer fall sowing in this latitude,
Would SOW the seed from the 18th Of
September: not later if we could
avoid it. Where well rotted barn
yard manure can be had, we would
scatter it over the surface literally
after plowing and would then harrow
it in thoroughly. If such manure
cannot be obtained, then it would
be well to scatter coarser manure
over the ground as soon as winter
sets in. This plan would not only
enrich the soil, but protect the
plants. One bushel, or 45lbs. of
seed will be sufficient for three acres.
We omitted saying that after the
sowing, the seed should be well
brushed in with a harrow. Be cale-
full about using the roller, if the use
oft will be likely to make the soil
bake. In the spring the roller
should be passed over the field at
the proper time.

An Old Fashioned Mother and a Re-

An Old Fashioned Mother and a Re-
formed Boy.
Some time ago, a Mrs. Buckelby,
who lives over in Berrrin county,
Michigan, directed her son Samuel,
a lad of IA years, to take turn at
The churn. AS Samuel had set his
heart on going a fishing at that very
time, he "got his back up' and fiat
ly refused to agiGate the cream. The
curvature was promptly taken out of
his spine by a slipper, and, with
"tears in his eyes" he went on duty
with the dasher. In about half an
hour, and during the brief absence
of his mother, his eyes fell upon a
plate Of fy-poison, and a bright,
smart thought struck him. Just be-
fore Mrs. B. came in, Samuel lifted
the fatal platter to his face, and as
she entered he put the "poison" from
his lips with the exclamation
"There, mother, 1 guess you won't
lick me no morer' Now what did
this Spartan dame do2 Did she
shrek for a doctor and fall into hys-
terics? Net much. She simply took
Samuel by the nape of the neck, lift
ed him deity into the pantry, beat
the whites of six eggs together, and
told him to engulf the same instan-
ter; and he refusing, she called the
hired girl, and in a twinkling Sam
found himself outside the albumen.
Then Mrs B. began preparing mus
tard emetic. Seeing this, Sans
pluck dissolved, and he commenced
begging, crying, "I was only tryin'
to skeer ye." But the stern mother
was not to be softened, and Samuel
had to swallow the mustard. He was
then forced to take a dose Of pain
killer, and had his back rubbed with
"Vigor of Life" and his stomach
with the SOil of Gladness. Then
he vomited up everything but his
boots and socks. This being over,
he took seven Ayers pills, two
spoonful of castor oil, teaspoonful
Of salts, and blue pill. And now,
if you want to behold the maddest
boy in Michigan, just say, "fy-poi-
son" to Sam Buckelby..

THE OUTSIDE OF THE WINDOW
BY JOHN JAMES PIATT.
They stand at the window, peering,
And pressing against the pane
Their beautiful childish faces;
Without are the night and rain.
They stand at the window, peering:
What see they, the children, there?
A room full of happy faces,
room full of shining air,
A room full Of warmth and brightness,
A room full of pleasant sights
OF pictures and statues and vases,
And shadows at play with the lights.
But sweetest of all, to their gazing
$50 near, they seem part of them thereD
Is the room full of happy faces
In the room full of shining air.
All mel my precious observers,
Another sight ! shall find.
What is it? dread to tell you,
And, oh! it were sweet to be blindi
From the lighted room, through the window,
see, and have seen them of old,
A world full of wretched faces,
A world full Of darkness and cold,
A world full Of cold and darkness,
A world full of dreary sights.
No pictures, nor statues, nor vases,
But shadows that put out the lights.
All, saddest of all, through the window
CThey seem with US so nearD behold
A world full of wretched faces
In q world full of darkness and cold!

COAL AT MANSFIELD.

The main subject of conversation amons
our citizens, yesterday, was, as it might well
be, the discovery of vein of about 6 10 feet
of coal mile north Of this city at depth o.
/ ll6 feet below the level of Rocky Fork VIZ
confess that from some knowledge of geology
as developed by the best American scientists
we have been very incredulous about the find
ing vein of coal below here. The No. vein
known to geologists is that found at MassiIIou
nsarly hundred feet below drainage. That
has been traced to Napoleon, Holmes county.
south west, where it appears above drainage,
being a rise Of about 300 feet in 33 miles. The
same rise from Napoleon to Mansfield, 80
II lies, would carry it 200 feet above our sur
face Therefore, vein of coal at the depth
claimed here, should be 300 feet below the
vein No. now used at Massillon.
A man whose name we do not remember.
but who claims, and doubtless has experience,
was prospecting about here for several weeks.
He was very poor, but SO far as we can learn,
has never received much, if any money from
our citizens. He finally selected site on Mr..
Longs farm about half mile north of the
State Fair Ground and clearing out the ground
to the rock, some fifteen feet, began boring.
BE passed through vein of q few inches,
then at the depth of l02 feet went through
foot vein. On Monday he claimed to have
struck what he believes to be a thicker vein
ana stopped, 10 invite some OF our cit1ZenS to
witness the boring through. On Tuesday,
some of our citizens went over and remained
all day. When they arrived the water was at
the top of the rock. The sandpump was put
down and a debris of sand and specks of coal
cleared from the hole. Boring was commenc-
ed, the chisel giving sort of muffied thdd in
sted of ring as in rock, and coal was brought
up until they had passed through rs inches or
IL feet. In half an hour the water fell 46
feet. This would indicate coal fractures pref
ty clearly.
We have had specimens of the bearings,
which appear to us Of lighter brown and dull
Ter color than most coal. We have tested it,
it burns well, coke easily, and has but slight
trace of sulphur.
If there has been no deception, and we do
not see how there can be, we have. at lI6 feet
depth, voin of at least Z l-2 feet of the best
coal. Ifso, Mansfield should, with reasonable
discretion and care on the part of our proper
y holders in and near the city, have
n five years, an active population of 25,000. |
Our citizens will naturally feel excited about |
his. We advise them to keep cool and await |
vents.

An occasional feed of one table

On the subject of handling wet
soil and exchange says-Better not
do it, because it is an injury to do it;
an injury that years of careful cul-
ture cannot remedy. Heavy soil,
once puddled and packed when wet,
remains so for long time. Every
step the horses take on wet soil
peaches it. The plow turns it over
pulverising it, and leaves a
stiff glaze on the furrows. Better
it lie idle few days, or even sow the
grain without ploWing, and scratch
It in when the surface dries off, than
'uin or seriously injure the ground
,y puddle-plowing. Better pay your
lired man to let it alone, than plow
he soil when too wet.
