again: For the benefit Of the inhabi
tants of GaIlia county, and all other:
interested, / hereby issue my procla-
nation, that on the first day of Dec,
Ammo Domini, 1875, the bridge across
Big Kyger, about the hour of foul
O'Clock p. NJ, was made ready for
travel, and that at that time, teams
did cross said bridge, although said
structure is yet uncompleted; but it
has passed into other hands for CON-
pletion, and we hope to be able, long
before the Centennial meeting in
Philadelphia, 1876, to announce to
the world it's full completion. Bnt
never do we expect to be able to
learn all who have suffered losses,
caused by its erection. We defer
further comment until the fog raises.

LETART, MEIGs COUNTY, ONO.
Dec. 3, 1875.
EDITOR JoURNAL:-Belieyin that
Gallia is interested in her sons who
have stepped over her borders and
are battling with the ''ills of life" in
other counties, desire to speak OF
two who have gone out as educators,
and are now faithfully laboring IN
Meigs county.
Charles T. Coates has been teach
ing in this county for the last few
years. His success in the common
schools won for him quite Il reputa-
tion as teacher, so much so that he
received a call from the trustees of
the Carleton College, at Syracuse;
and to-day, he stands at the helm of
that institution. So successfully has
he steered the institution through
every voyage he has made, that many
are placing themselves under his
watchful care. He truly has shown
himself "a workman that needeth not
to be ashamed" The hopes of the
trustees have been realized. The
patronage of the institution is in
creaslng.
o. NJ. Carter is meeting with sue
cess in this place. He has proven to
the patrons of his school that he is
,ceN qualified for the position he oc-
cupies. 1t is both pleasant and in
to visi. his school. He has
won the affections of his students,
and all, both teachers and students,
are working with ''might and main.
The school building is q beautiful
erected and furnished last
year at a cost of something over
seven thousand dollars. There are
,hree departments at present. Mr..
Carter superinteHds the whole, and
caches the High School.
If these two young men are fair
specimens of the instructors that
1allia has sent out, she may well be
proud of her sons who are engaged in
his occupation beyond her borders.
The JOURNAL is 4 welcome visitor.
We could not well do without it.

CenterviIle Items.

Centerville though small, is not b,
any means an insignificant, dull
lonesome town that many imagine i
to be.
1t is true, we are not blessed Will
a Railroad or river, but we fare equal
ly as well, if not BETTER than ma
jority of the towns near us, that have
these advantages.
We have four churches-Welsh
Baptist, Calvanistic Methodist, Con
gregational and an English NJ. K.
Church. think these four churches
average as large an attendance rs the
churches of Gallipolis, not that we
have more people but less Sunday
loafers."
We have also four secret orders,
viz: Masonic, Knights of Pythias,
Red Men and Odd Fellows; all of
which are progressing finely.
Centerville, we claim, ships more
butter and eggs, and packs more
hogs than any town in the county.
Centerville Lodge of A. F. & A.
NJ, No. 81, are going to have a pub
lie installation and supper st. Johns
evening, Dec. 9th, which no doubt
will prove success.
Centerville has turned out the fol-
lowing teachers this fall, who not
only are an honor to Centerville, but
credit to the counties of Gallia and
jackson in which they are teaching,
viz: L. c. Steele, S. S. Jones, d.
L. Morgan, VIM. H. McNeal, L.
Hathaway, Misses Lille Williams,
Eliza Waddell, Annie Waddell, Mary
Morgan and Mary Thomas.
The Centerville Base Ball club
played a match game last Saturday.
Score-lst nine, nineteen, (19;) ID
nine, eighteen, (1S). I don't think
they can beat the Boston Reds yet;
"though they are not to be grinned
at" By next spring, perhaps they
will give the Pastimes 4 ''rub"
understand Mr.. j. Warren Yost
has resigned the management OF the
Centerville National Bank of Thur
man, and intends to return to CALI
polls. Centerviile and community
deeply regret the loss of one of its
best citizens. Mr.. Yost is a young
man Of fine intellect and excellent
department, in fact a model young
man. He leaves Centerville with not
an enemy and a host of friends. May
peace and prosperity go with him.

tend hearty welcome to all such men.
Rev. Chairman closed his series OF
meetings last Wednesday evening. The
Church has been revived and some six
or eight prOfessed faith as the result OF
his .abors. He has made host of warm
friends here during the short time he
has had charge of the church.
Richard Hackley, colored man who
has been in the employ of r. Coleman
for the past seven years, died last Mon-
day after short illness of only twenty
six hours. His disease was apopiexy.
The quarterly meeting at First Ky
ger Church was very well attended.
Prof. Dunn, of Hillsdale, Mich. preached
Sabbath morning and evening.
The new cooper-shop is in full blast,
and has about twenty-five hands EN-
plOyed.
They are having war again out at
First Kyger; the first battle was fought
about, two weeks ago, and the partici-
pants were all young men. Peace pre-
vailed from that time until last Friday
evening, when a more severe battle was
fought. If we are correctly informed
some young men possessed of Satan and
with a drop too much of benzine in
their shirts, attended church on the
evening above mentioned for the sole
purpose of creating disturbance, and
were quite successful. Mr.. David
Coughenour i'm attempting to make peace
had.a pair of brass knuckles planted in
his face, and then general battle took
place. Such scenes as can be witnessed
ut that church would be disgrace to IN
nation. 1t is too bad that
the church members can't put a stop to
It. Some people blame both parties,
but we all know, beyond a doubt, that
hose people that go there co worship
will disturb no one if they will go there
md behave as gentlemen. Reform, boys,
md You will be happier.
