SEEN is got up with the greatest care, and will be
a Welcome addition TO the library Of every citi'
zen Of the county. 1t contains correct aud
valuable map: Of the United States, similar
one Of the State of Ohio, another Of the county
and series of township maps illustrated with ex'
pensive engravlngs of the most prominent public
buildings, dwellings, churches, schools, &c, &c
ThO letter press contains a history Of the early
settlement of the county and Of each town, CO.
pious directory of each township city and village
with separate maps Of every incorporated munic-
ipality. 1t is, in fact, perfect encyclopedia OF
the county, and puts 1t before the reader more
fully and vividly than he would behold 1t BY
many days of travel and personal examination
It only owing to the high state Of perfection TO
which the arts OF printing and engraving have
arrived that such work Is possible TO be achieV'
Cd and It seems To US that no one will fOrego the
pleasure, 10 say nothing Of the profit OF possessing
himaOf of copy. Good portraits Of old CtiSens Of
,he county add much TO the Interest Of the work
Among the portraits we recognize eX-Judse Lout'
zenheiser and his wife.

For the past few days rumorS have been exten'
sively circulated concerning the elopement Of
married woman of this town with q produce
broker Of Pittsburgh. Though we have exertod
all possible efforts to asce facts in relation to
the case. we have been unable To learn anything
positive, though the reports are fully credited by
those who have been best acquainted with the
woman in question, as well as all others, and
there is but little room to doubt that the story is
true. The woman Is respectfully connected, and
comes from wealthy and well known family,
long residents in this township 1t ls stated that
she took with her child three or four months
old leaving an older one behind. 1t Is probable
that the affair will be more positively developed
before long, though ifhe reports be not true 1t Is
certain that circumstances point strongly and al
most conclusively TO their confirmation. ..

IT is no wonder there are more married men
than single in the insane asylums. When mar
ried man starts away from home in the morning,
with his mind full of the cares of business, its
enough to drive him crazy to hear lively female
voice call him back and say:
Dan Webster, have you got 1t all in your head
Don't you dare forget that ruchingi then there Is
one pair of Alexandria kids, pea green, two yards
of ribbon to match my new hat, that chain and
locket at the jewelers. two and halfyards rubber
cord, belt buckle, one box of lavender tint ini-
tial rep note paper and envelopes to match, my
slippers are to be done to-day, and the cook wants
some provisions; butyou can use your own judS'
ment In selecting them. Now I've told you three
times and If you forget single thing I'll tear
your whiskers out.
Then the poor wretch starts slowly of, mutter
ing something about pea green belt buckles ini
tlal tinted slippers, rep colored rubber ribbon and
embroidered beefsteak. It's enough to turn Prince
GortschakoffTs head inside out.

by his parents last Saturday evening The child
had been missing nearly all the afternoon, but
nothing was thought Of till evening, when the
parents became alarmed, and several searching
parties started out and cried lOst child" through
the streets. until nearly eleven o'clock. In the
meantime the distracted parents of the child In
wandering about the house between nine and ten
o'clock, found the little one asleep on the kitchen
floor. The child had heen seen at the Union dam
during the evening and had found his way home
50 tired and sleepy, that he dropped to the floor
and fell asleep, as soon as he reached the house
and the searchers kept on parading the streets
blowing fox horns and yelling, with conscious
ness Of being engaged In good work.

ON last Monday forenoon young man drove
horse from Fulton to Canton, then drove about
town in the hot sun till noon when he tied the
horse to hitching post and went to dinner, leaV'
ing the suffering animal without bite After
dinner he started out again, driving the jaded
beast about town at cruel rate until supper time,
when he took another meal, leaving the horse
without, as before. Twice during the after
noon the animal stumbled and fell on Its knees,
but the heroic young heathen whipped it up and
started on. After supper he started on his return
to Fulton, the horse looking as though another
mile would use it up. Such heartless cruelty de-
serves punishment.

NEW ROUTE TO BuFFALo-The completion OF
the Buffalo and Jamestown Railroad gives the
Atlantic and Great Western Railroad its long
desired outlet to Buffalo, and opens new and
pleasant route to Niagara Falls. Trains on the b.
&J Road depart from the A. & G. W. depot at
Jamestown, and deliver passengers at the Erie
Railway depot at Buffalo, thus avoiding the old
time annoyance, the omnibus transfer. Travellers
to the Falls by the way of the Atlantic and Great
Western Railroad can stop over at Lake Chautau'
qua without extra charge.

HIS phosporescent majesty, Lou schaeier is an
obllging genius and frequently develops fellow
feeling for those of his kind in distress that Is
sweet to behold This benign fraternal feeling
was beautifully and touchingly manifested BY
him last Wednesday afternoon, when he eeheld
two mules, in attempting to draw heavy load OF
bricks, stall In the alley near his skinem skinto'
rum. With his face aglow and ears erect, he has
tened to the assistance Of his friends Of the eonga
ted auriculars, and lending ready hand, and a
small but energetic muscular pressure, the three
succeeded IN starting up the wagon, They Weuld
hardly have succeeded but for the vociferous en-
couragement of the driver, assisted by Elder Bass
com, who stood in the doorway of his castle o.
wisdom, and with his hands raised, and his white
hairs standing, each at different angle from hil
scalp, shouted encouraging sentences to tht
three animated motors,
Heretical is he who diSbelieves.
That any mule, for kindness 1t receives,
From any other mule,
Will eer forget that kindness while 1t lives,
Or lose the fellow feeling that 1t gives,
v thin the breast to rule.

A TRULY sad and plhful sight was witnessed
last Monday evening on Poplar street Awoman,
rather we'll dressed, and past the middle age, was
observed to fall to the sidewalk. At Arst It was
thought she had fallen in fit. and a man who
was near hastened to her and helped her up, when
she staggered on few feet only TO fall again. 1t
was plainly evident TO those who saw the occur
renee that she was exceedingly drunk. Such sad
exhibitions should prove effectud warnings
against the use Of strong drink.
