Cheating Americans in Paris.

Lucy Hooper describes a couple OF pc
culiar cases of cheating TO which Ameri-
can customers too often fall victims in
Paris. In one instance an American lady
sent to a fashionable drcSSmaker two
dresses to be rrmOdeled, OGe Il black vel
vet ball dress, which was simply to be re
trimmed with lace and jet, and the other
was 4 black SILK walking dress to be made
over entirely. The dresses were sent
home in due course Of time. The black
silk was handsomely remade, and was
trimmed protuscly with velvet, for which
a high price was chaaged III the bill. The
bail dress looked ali right, but when it
was tried on the skirt was found to be
strangely shrunken from its original full
dimensions. On examination it was dis
covered that by dint of ingenious pieCing
and gOring, the velvet needed for the
walking dress had been distracted from
the ball dress, which was Of course ruined
by the process. The lady, therefore, had
been forced not only to pay for her own
velvet, but to compensate the dressmaker
for spelling & costly dress. In the second
case, a young American lady ordered
some dresses of a dressnaker and took
her a quantity of rich embroidery to be
used on one of the costumes. She called
one day to give an order, and on her re-
turn to her hotel was met by a police
man, sent thither by the d~ressmakcr,
who, having lost her pet dog, accused the
young lady Of having stolen it. Vainly
did she protest her innocence; her apart
ment was searched, and after some hours
of annoyance the dressmaker sent word
that the dog had been found. Being &
sensible and spirited girl, she went to the
dreSsmakcr to revoke her orders.

Mr. EDITOR: am pleased to hear the
frequent enquiry from persons coming in
from the country: "Wbat are you doing
with the Belaire & Southwestern Rail
road ?" and some say that we are work
ing too slow. saw to them every such
enterprise has its ebb and flow; that we
are getting ready for vigorous effort
after harvest is over. There are two
things necessary for US to understand in
order to accomplish what we desire.
They are, first-In order to build the
said road we must have united effort of
the people; and, second-If such effort
is put forth, we are sure to accomplish our
object
/ will assume that in this enlightened
age,there is no one living within ten miles
of the proposed road who will not admit
that he will be benefited by it, and its
benefits will extend much farther than
that in some localities. Now il am to
be benefited by the road, and others are
subscribing stock to con 1truct it, which
will tend to raise the price of my proper
ty and add to my comfort and conven-
fence, tits my duty to do something to-
ward enhancing the value Of my neigh.
boris property and to add to his comfort
and convenience
Itwould not be acting the part Of an
honest man, to say to my neighbor, 81
want the road; it will raise the price Of
nv property but you pay your money
and build it, and I will use and enjoy it.
Hope for the sake of the enterprise,
and the reputation Of those that will be
benefited by the proposed road, that we
have no one within the bounds of the
road, who is able, but will aid in its con-
struction W.

County Correspondence.
Written for The Spirit of Democracy
From SunsbuIy T0synthip.

On Wednesday, July 2lst, 1875, a
Baptist church was organized at place
called M'Dougals Mission, about five
miles southeast of Beallsville. The
church was namei East Sunsbury. Rev.
j S Covert was moderator and Rev
G. G. Boyd, clerk of the meeting. AT
ter the adoption of the articles OF Faith
and church covenant, with the name,
Rev G G. Boyd was elected pastor an
indefinite time. Jesse McElroy and
William McDougal were elected dea-
cons. William McDougal was also
elected clerk. In May, 1867, at which
time Rev. j. S. Covert began labor here,
there were five Baptists, during his Ia
Dor up to April, 1873, period of near
six years there were added upT ard of
fifty persons by baptism During the
last two years with but little preaching
there has been small decline. Thirty,
two members entered into the organiza-
ton, others will. A recognition council
from other Baptist churches was called
to meet at their place of meeting Aug
nst 26, 1875, at 10 a. m. Several min
listers will attend this meeting and it is
hoped that there will be large attend
ance from the vicinity. All are urged
to attend. NJ. NJ.

Watching the Ohio
Struggle.
[Richmond WAY Whig. |

The campaign in Ohio is watched
with big eyes by the bullionists. They
are trembling for the result, for they
know that if Allen, the great leader oil
their opponents who is first in the field,
shall be elected, the prestige Of the vic.
tory will be the promise of the great
victory next year. We can see their
fears in the faces OF their organs They
are hoping fer help from Thurman, who
is represented to be in sympathy with
them, and who in few days, it is said,
will say what he has TO say, and take
his position. But Senator Thurman
will not help them. If, as it seems he
intends to do, he pulls an oar in the
Democratic boat but not in unison with
the other oarsmcn before him and be-
hind him, he may splash the water lit
tie and rather retard the boat in the
-ace for while, but he will soon see
that the man at the helm is directing her
course, and that if he wants a comfort
able time he had better pull as the others
pull or ask to be "set ashore"
Wall street, no doubt will wave its
golden wand in the Ohio campaign
and money tells in politics now; but the
people who are already struggling in
the coils Of the money power will hard
ly be deceived by its douceurs.
We claim majority of from twenty
to forty thousand for Governor Allen;
and, with his election on the financial
platform be stands upon,the hard money
Democrats of the country will prepare
to strike their colors, or at least come
to reasonable terms, we hope.

The Times helps to prove the truth OF
what the Enquirer actually did say yes

"The Republican press to-day will at.
tempt to show that this failure and its
results are to no extent attributable to
the financial policy Of the Government.
The Governmental policy may not be
the immediate occasion of this failure,
but it is the underlying cause. 1t is
wholly responsible for the depressing re-
suits which will follow, for great and

grand stand the flrst time, but at the fur
long Wild Idle went out, Rutherford
second; Wild Idle led for mile and 3

most exciting part Of the race took
place. At the stand both horses we're

R0nte Between Woedsfleld and
Deaiisvliie.

Upon this part Of the line for the B d
S. w. railroad, there seems TO be some
difficulty In the minds Of many, living
between those two points, as to whether
10 subscribe stock fof the road, on the
plea as to which route will be adopted
Now, as to the question OF routes, there
are but two that can be located 80 as to
become rival routes and these diverge
from each other at the most distant
points about seven miles. The two
routes on the west side, running parallel
and within a half mile of each other, are
certainly not rival routes, as either Of
them accommodate the same neighbor
hoods, and in either event cannot pass
more than three-fourths OF mile from
Ozark or Jerusalem, and constitute the
western route.
The eastern and rival route will pass
down Standing stone and Sunfsh and up
Piney Fork and Slack Run to Beallsville,
and would pass within Eve miles OF New
Castle and Cameron These .wo routes
are about the same distance to Bealls-
vile, and neither route has any advant-
age over the othe: as to cheapness of
constructing the road, and are perhaps
as nearly equal in all respects, for rail
road purposes as can be; both are good
routes, with no summits between the two
'points-both routes passing down and
up valleys with rich surrounding coun-
try, and each of these would command
the aid of two valleys to raise their sub
scriptions. Then let each route raise
their nttermost dollar, and the route that
shall raise the largest amount Of stock
to have the road In this way the peo-
pie along the routes would decide the
question themselves as to which route
will be adopted RA1LRoAD-"YEs."

The feeling Of the people of Eastern
