Overscer of the Poor.

To the Citizens Of the 1o,on Of RutIand
By vote OF the last March meeting the
transactions of the poor department should
beclosed the LIST of February, 1875, for the
year. herewith lay before you full
statement of the expenses of the poor from
the LIST of Feb, 1874, to the LIST of Feb,
1875. The expenses for the month of
Feb, 1874, was ordered by your former
overseer, amounting to $3l4.1S from the
1st of March, 1874, to the LIST of Feb,
1875, the expenses have been S3,SS954
Total amount for the year ending the LIST of
Feb, 1875, not including the overseer's
salary, So, 202.72, for which have drawn
orders to the amount of $3,751.11. Re-
ceived from other sources, $451.6l. You
are all aware of the situation of business
affairs, that many are out of employment,
hence the necessity of calling for assistance
from the town, and here let me say the dis
erection of the overseer has to determine
many difficult cases, and that impositons
are often practiced it leaves the overseer
to see that he has been occasionally i'm
posed upon, but it better be so than neglect
the suffering poor. Outside the poor house
| have rendered aid to over $50 persons,
Many of them are widows with families
You will herewith find a list of persons
who have received such aid and the amount
to each name annexed, amounting to
S2,9l6.92.
There have been admitted to the poor
house during the year 80 different persons
There are now at the house 10, all adults
No deaths at the house during the year and
but little sickness. There have been 10
buried outside the poor house, at the ex-
pen:e of the town.

Senator William Sharon.

sketch Of the new Senator from Nevada can
not but prove interesting. He is native of Ohio,
where he was born in January, 1921, of Quaker
parents. His boyhood was spent in alternately
attending the village school and working on his
fathers farm. Before he was tWenty-one years
old he had made his first business venture, the
purchase ofan interest in fiat-boat. This proved
unsuccessful; his boat was wrecked, his partners
cheated him, and he soon got back to his fathers
roof. After this he spent two years at Athens
College and then took up the study Of law, diver
styling It with farm work, and six months of his
time were spent in the office Of Edwin NJ. STAN
ton. Later still, he went TO st. Louis, where he
was admitted to the bar. Poor health soon after
compelled him to give up his profession, and he
formed o mercantile partnership with his brother
at Carrollton, ILL.,, where he remained until the
gold excitement In 1S49, when he crossed the
plains to California.
His early experience there was chequered
one. He began as merchant in Sacramento, but
lost nearly all his goods by the flood OF 1852
Then he moved to San Francisco, where real es-
tate attracted his attention and in that business
he laid the foundation Of his fortune. In 1884 he
lost most Of his money by Specializing in mining
stocks and was then sent to Nevada BY the Bank
Of California to adjust some claims there.
his business foresight manifested itself in pro
position to establish an agency Of the banR In
that Territory-a scheme which was carried out
with great success. Ever since that time Mr..
Sharon has been dealing in mines, until by his
business daring and his sharpness he has OBJ
tanned the control Of some Of the best-paying
silver mines Of the State. As an instance Of his
''sharpness"i It is related that seeing the advan-
tage to be derived from railroad from Reno to
Virginia City, he secured subsidy OF $500, 900 In
aid Of the project from the people along the line
built as much Of 1t as the S5O0,0O0 would permit,
and then raised enough to complete It by mort
gaginK the whole Of it. His interest 10 the road
on which he did not spend cent, is estimated to
be worth q, 5O0.0 900.
Mr.. Sharon has not been prominent in politics.
He has always been Republican since the or
QanfZQft0n IN ha A. md
Il is said that he bouR ht the first seven per cent
United States bonds offered IN California although
advised not to do SO. He viii have IN opportunity
to make . hKe reputation in his new position, and
with colossal fortune already secured, he ought
to be above the reach OF one form Of temptation
OF which we nowadays so Often see examples.

FROM the new i OFk derald.J
From Havana we learn the important news that
the insurgents are moving steadily westward.
Spanish accounts admit that q force Of thou
sand men have forced their way across the troehG
which was erected to coniine the insurgents to
the Central and Eastern departments, and are
now on the way to join their comrades in the
Oinco villas district. We are informed that they
will be followed and annihilated, but as the
Spaniards have been engaged killing the Cuban
insurgents-on paper-for the last six years, We
may be pardoned If we do not accord implicit faith
to the assurances Of the authorities. It Is evil
dent that the Cubans are resolved 10 begin their
long-contemplated campaign against the sugar
estates Of the Western department We may
expect news Of burning plantations and whole
safe destruction Of property unless the Spaniards
succeed in driving the Insurgents once more
aeroFs thetTochc or completely dispensing them.
II is to he regretted that the war for independ-
enee should involve the destruction Of 30 much
valuable property; but as the Spanish party did
not hesitate 10 destroy the property Of the Oubans
they have no right 70 complain Of the retallatory
measures which may be adopted against them.
IL the insurgents succeed in passing through the
Cneo Villas and falling on the rich plantations Of
the Western department We may expect Q re-
