Ohio Tobacco.
BALTIMORE, December /, 1875.

DALIlMOhEj DtCollDeT " Io'"'
Editors IntOlllgGncer:
Tho total sales Of Ohio Tobacco during
the past month embrace only about b5t
hhds., bought principally by MesSrS
Bros. Boninger for their factory at Duis
burg, at a further decline in prices. Al
though Ohio Tobacco Ia now nearly two
cents lower than II was twelve month";
ago, sill our market rules dull and mac
tive, and buyers show no disposition tc
purchase. The stock In agents and spec.
rilators hands amounts to about 4,OOC
hhds, which will probably have to be car
ried over to next year.
The Tobacco trade Is suffering now I'M,
der tho general depression existing in all
branches Of business, and there Is at pres
cnt not the least indication OF an i'm
provemcnt In trade, and prices may moi
have touched bottom yet.
II Is evident that we cannot look for 4
healthy demand next year unless the new
crop Ia bought at n moderate price II
Ohio. II, however, buyers in Ohio will be
mialed BY undue excitement to pay higt
prices, the consequence will be that ship
pers here will be compelled to abandon
The Use Of this tobacco to some extent, ant
substitute cheaper kinds, and then VI
will witness another disastrous seasOn. Al
this year, owing to the high prices asked
Ohio tobacco has lost many customers, !
ia Of the utmost Importance to the tradt
that agents should be enabled next veal
to offer the tobacco at figures which viii
induce all buyers to take hold Of the ar
ticle.
We again caution our friends moi to riSj
orer 81 50 for good sound average crops
As the buying Of the So.called fancy crop
at higher pricas has always an injurious
effect on the business and stimulates
farmers to ask extravagant prices thes'
crops should not be touched until thu
bulk Of the crop is bought.

FATAL ACc1DENT.-A. j. Burlingame.
about AZ years of age, while in the employ
of the Wilson Brothers, on the 10Th inst,
was struck by short board that was
thrown from planer which he was tend
ing. He had thin board in the machine
and started another which was thicker by
its side. this raised the feed rollers from
the thin board and it was driven back with
great force by the cutters, striking him
in the bowels and knocking him down up
on his back. Being a man of tenatity and
health he at once sprang upon his feet,
supposing he was not much hurt, but he
soon felt faint and went to the house. In
n few hours he was attacked with severe
pains, and Doctors were summoned at
once, but soon found that he could not
live. He lived about 90 hours in great
agony, when death came to his relief. He
leaves a wife and also child about six
years old. The funeral from his residence
was largely attended by sympathizing
friends

A week ago last Saturday night Will
liam Spriggs, of Franklin township. was
brought to town and put in jail, charged
with having committed a rape upon a lit
tie orphan girl, between twelve and thir-
teen years of age. He had an examina-
ton before Mayor Laird on Wednesday.
The girl was living in the family of John
Gilliland, and Spriggs was blowing corn,
and the girl hoeing. She testified that
Spriggs told her to go over into a
piece of woods, and get some
hickory bark to repair his line. When
she went he followed her, and out
ragged her. He then went to plowing
and she went to hoeing, and in half
hour he came to her again, and had some
improper conduct. She said she had
told Mr.. and Mrs. Gilliland about it. Mr.
Gilliland testified that she never told
him anything about it. Mrs. Gilliland
was sick, and could not come to town
The story told by the girl was improba-
BILE and unreasonable, and the case was a
very weak one, and the Mayor had doubts
about holding the defendant to answer
but as Mrs. Gilliland was an important
witness, he would hold the defendant in
$500 bail, which he at once gave.

JACKSON COUNTY IN THE CEN
g. TENNIAL.

On Thursday night, July 18th, meet
ing of several prominent citizens of jack
son was called at the parlor of the Isham
House, when Dr. A B. Monahan was
called to the chair, and Davis Mackley
was appointed Secretary. The chairman
stated the object of the meeting to be, to
take measures to have jackson county
represented in the Centennial at Phila-
delphia, after which Prof Orton, of the
Ohio Agricultural College, made a short
speech. He said he had been in Jack
son five years ago, and now he saw such
changes as he then had no reason to ex-
pect. Great developments had been
made in the mineral resources of the
county, as we'll as in the advancement
above ground. He would leave it to the
people here to say whether the resources
of Jackson county should be represented
with the Hanging Rock region generally,
Oh as an independent locality. He spoke
very highly of the jackson coal, both as
to quality and quantity.
Prof Whitley, of Spring gfeld, was then

mode of being represented at the Cen
tenni al Exhibition. He said the plan
was to have all articles from Ohio collec-
ted and arranged at Cincinnati, and then
suggestions could be made, and the arti-
cles so classified as to have Ohio fully
and advantageously represented at the
great Centennial.
Thomas M. Jones made few remarks
favoring the idea that the iron region of
the central portion of Jackson county,
could not fairly be classified as belonging
to the Hanging Rock region, as the iron
is made of stone coal, and is known in
the market as the jackson county iron.
Alanson Robbins stated that it has
been regarded that the Hanging Rock
iron region embraces all that district
where the limestone ore is used. Re-
marks were made by H. L. Chapman and
others. when E. Crandall offered a rcso-
luton in favor of keeping jackson coun.
ty separate, &c. Remarks in favor OF
' the resolution were made by DR.. l. T.

Ophir Furnace has again blowed out,
and will probably not be put in blast
again. We suppose it may now be con-
sidered as settled that Ophir is failure.
1t is reported that the ore is not good.
And there appears to be something
wrong about the hot blast. When Ophir
was first built we were of the opinion
that from its locality it was one of the
very best furnaces in the county. And
we yet believe that furnace at that
place properly constructed, would do
good work.

Monahan. Judge Longbon and Thomas
NJ Jones, when A. Robbins and Eben
Jones spoke of the iron region of Jack
son county as being in the Hanging
Rock region.
Mr.. Chapman then offered an amend
ment, that Jackson county be represent
ed as an individuality, but as a portion
of the Hanging Rock region. Mr. Gran
dali accepted the amendment. The ques-
ton was then put, and carried, DR.. l. I.
Monahan and Judge Longbon voting in
the negative.
On motion of DR.. l. Monahan. a COM
mittee of five on organization and ar
rangement was appointed, consisting OF
E. Crandall, Thomas M. Jones, Lot Da-
Wis, A. Robbins and H. L. Chapman.
Various suggestions were made by
Prof Orton, Prof. Whitley. Andrew Roy,
State Commissioner of Mines, and Others.
On motion of E. Crandall, committee
of three, consis ting of Judge Longbon,
DIR. l. T. Monahan and D. Mackley, was
appointed to write brief history of the
minerals of jackson county for the Cen
tennial.

David Tatum. of Cleveland, preached
at the M. E. Church last Sunday fore
noon, and his discourse was a sensible
and practical one. AT night he made a
long lecture on temperance, to crowd
ed house. We suppose his discourse
was good one, but we could not under
stand more than half he said. His elo-
cution was miserable When excited,
his words all ran together, and he spoke
in high key, and made great noise.
