Talk of Cotton as King, or "any other

eratives of our manufacturing shops are
he diamonds in the kings crown; the
.ife-blood Of his nation.
We take special pleasure in record
ng universally expressed worn ofap

ire not much on anything but the fair
sex, but our people are really delight
I'd with the attractions offered, th,.
kindly spirit of accommodation mani
tested bv the Managers, and the gener-
al courtesy Of the whole business of the
Fair. We have heard from numbers
oi lips very warm encOmiuins passed
upon the Fair, and determination
expressed to give it in the future n
hearty support. We take occasion to
thank Mrj Ntisvanger and his corps
If assistants Tor general courtesies.
Much praise is awarded the CHRoN-
ICLE by our business community fer it,
successful enterprise during the Fair
in publishing such racy little daily
full of spice and suap, a. well as s rv-
ing "a correct and cheerful portrai-
ture of the exhibition Our people ap-
preciate properly the effort thus to keep
their interests before the public, and

The many friends of Ewing Turner'S

protracted and serious illness of Mrs.

nicely convslescing.

A chapter of accidents might also
have been recorde d, in which We would
state the fall of Mr.. Alex. Crossan

BRIDGEPORT.

AT meeting of the Board of Eluca.
tion OF Pease township, at Maiti..' i
Ferry, Oh Menday, the question of set.
Ting the veXed boundary line between
Martins Ferry and Bridgeport was de.
cided. Each party was Zealously af-
fected, in view of the Importance the
issue had assumed, since Elnavile,
with its immense interests, hai sprung
into existence. The decision of the
Board was that the division should
be the section line, which gives to
Bridgeport and Etnaville their desired
change. Now let this be finale of this
unhappy controversy, and heneefOrth
may Wedwell together in unity-seek-
ing only each others as well as our in
dividusl prosperity and advancement.

endorsement. Such man rs Vallan-

ince at the CCnvt ntiOn which noini-
mated him Was extremely characteristic,
when he twice Thanked the Convex
ton for his nomination, and stated
that if elected to Congress ne WoulG
vote against the bill granting civil
rights to the cOlored people in the
South. He has always been an active
md bitter partizan, and We suspect
will think now that he has chs nee
of an election, and will work hard IT,
secure it.
The policy of the Democratic party,
AS already indicated, is TO speak Of
Boyles as "the farmers candidate"
But this will not win. Wren the
farmers of the District want to send
an actual farmer Ia Con ,ress, they will
select one with SOM" n'ailectual fitness
for the position. Tilcr.- are very few
farmers in Harrison county, and few
we think in the District, that would
like TO have To own Henry Boyles as
their representative, anywhere. That
plea will drive more votes away from
him than it will gain for him.
If there is ANY virtue at all in him,
il is found in the one wor,i-Democrat.
His party had better call him that, and
stick to it. for as Candidate there is
nothing else in him, whatever.-C Cddiz

OUR Bourbon friend of the Gazette
seems to be in an unsettled state OF
mind, for fear of the direful results that
might occur upon the passage of the
Civil Rights Bill, bill by the way,
whatever its provisions, which is not a
law. He forgets probably that the par
ty to which he belongs and the pope,
through which he sounds the tocsin OF
alarm, sustained man for the high
Office of President of the United States
no longer ago than 1872, who in q
speech made to the colored people al
Poughkeepsie, n. Y, in July of that
year, said:

when their (the black men's) common

cases to say that black children shall
not go TO school with white children, is
to say they shall have no school what
ever.

him to continue to harp about "niggel

Marriage OfGen. Shernan's Sher
mans Dagkiter.

Lizzie, of Bridgeport, are the honored
recipients of cards of invitation to the
marriage-October 1sl-of Miss Maria
Ewing, daughter of Gen. Sherman
and Thomas William Fitch, U. S. n
1t is said, unlike the Grant-Sartoris
wedding, there will be at this no pre-
tensions to exclusiveness. All of the
old friends Of the General and his fam
lily will be invited to the Church tt
witness the ceremony; and fall ars
not hidden to the house, il will be fol
the reason that Mrs. Sherman's hOust
is not as big as her great womanly
heart. There will be eighteen hundred
invitations issued-at least two-thirds
going from the city. The invitations
are very beautifully executed on Pri.
ce's finest tinted note paper, with cards
and envelopes from the same celebrated
house, to match in shade and quality
On a long, narrow sheet of note-paP pei
are these words in this wise:

Mrs. Sherman

Which will be solemnized by

Most Rev. Archbishop of Cincinnati,
in st. Aloysiu's Church,
Washington, ID. g.,
On Thursday, October l, 1874.
On a small obIong card are these
words:
Present this at the Church door.
Without this card no one will be adj
mitted, the orders to that effect being
most stringent. On large, almost
square card we read:
The General and Mrs. Sherman
AtHome,
Thursday, Oct. !, from until 4 clock
207 Street.
The Church of St. Aloysins, which
is well calculated for IN affair of this
kind, will be beautifully decorated,
and the flowers ordered for the occa.
sion from the florists of the East, for
Church and house, will be in greatast
profusion, and embrace everything that
is rare and sw eet in the floral world.
The music will be of the most eXqui-
site quality. There will be eight
bridesmaids. The brides dress, i'm
ported from Paris. is white GrOs-graiD
silk, with Grape finish, VIII ch gives it a
most velvety appeo rance. This is
trimmed with white satin and point
lace, looped with orange flowers and
clematis. The attendants will wear
dresses of some white diaphanous ma
terial, relieved by cOlors. The nuptual
mass will last one hour: that is from II
until 12, but no one will lie received al
the house until o'clock, SO that du-
ring the last hour guests may linger
within the sacred editice. Gentlemen
will appear in morning reception dress,
The ladies in full carriage visiting cos
tunes, with light opera bonnels. The
pres nts will be numerous and valua.
