Harvest Home.

On Friday last the Grangers of this
county, joined by many other citizens of
the county and town had splendid picnic
at Wendeps grove adjoining town. The
substantial farmers of the county, with
their wives and children, came in from
all parts Of the county in great numbers.
and a most happy and profitable annual
reunion of the industrial portion of the
county was enjoyed; and hundreds of
weIl-flled baskets were materially light
ened before the repast was over. The
day was spent in social conversation and
interchanges of views on subjects connect
ed with the great agricultural interests Of
the county.
We did not reach the grounds in time
to hear the speech in the forenoon; but
we listened with much interest to the
speeches of Mr.. West of Wilmington,
Capt. Keeler Of Fairfield county, and Gen
Piatt of Logan county. The speeches wer'
attentively listened to by the audience
and duly appreciated. We trust that mucl
good may result from these annual reun
ions Of the Fayette county farmers; anC
we hope to witness many Harvest Hom
picnics by our Grange friends in thi
county, especially if they afford us a
much pleasure as did that on Friday last

rna NEW County AtIns.


We received call yesterday from Mr..
w. B. Donald, who is advance agent, ad-
vertising the delivery of the new Fayette
County Atlas, published by Messrs. L. H.
Everts & Co. We have examined the
work and can assure eur readers that is all
AND MORE than was promised. 1t contains
an excellent and very near perfect history
of Fayette county from its earliest settle
ment and in addition complete maps of the
several townships, of Washington c. H.
by wards, of towns and villages in the
county, large map of Ohio, and next Of
the counties in groups of three and four in
the minutest detail. A map of the Uni
ted States, also of the grand divisions
some book which will be not only orna-
mental but of great use and value in every
| household in the county. The eRgravings
of public buildings and dwellings, farm
residences, ETC. have been tastefully execu-
ted, as also the portraits of many of our
prominent men and pioneers. The Atlas
is in fact, a perfect encyclopedia of the
county and puts it before the reader more
fully and vividly than he would behold it
by many days travel and examination. No
one pecuniarily able so to do should fail tc
possess a copy of this work. To all, it
persual will be a source of pleasure anG
profit The delivery will commence in
few days by corps OF gentlemen VIII
will prosecute the work with vigor, until tn
lists in all towns of the county are deliv.
cred. We hope the publishers (and thos
who represent them,) will meet a kin
and prompt response.

The Republican Meeting held in this
town on Tuesday last was called to order
by James Pursell, when Col. Il. B. May
nard was chosen President of the meeting
and Mills Gardner Secretary. After few
Introductory and appropriate remarks by
the President Gen. Hayes was introduce ced
to the audience, and made one of the ablest
speeches on the great questions of interest
in this campaign that we have listened TO
in many a day. The Currency question
and the School question were fairly pre-
sented, and his arguments SO thoroughly
planned and matured that it seems to US
that not a doubt as to the correct
ness Of the Republican party on these
questions could be left. The position of
the opposite party in the advocacy of
abolishing the National Ban system and
substituting in their place a flood Of ire
deemable greenbacks, and their ready
yielding to the power of the Catholic
Priesthood, was defined in courteous and
gentlemanly manner, but terribly condem-
natory and convincing of the fallacy and
danger of placing party in power pledg-
ed to the policy enacted and advocated by
the Democratic party.
" hist the attendance at the NEE tin e
did not reach to the thousands, it was ell
attended, and all parts of the county we're
represented by an intelligent and appre-
ciative class of our farmers. There are
none more so in the county than those
who attended the meeting on Tuesday
All seemed to be highly pleased, and thor
oughly determined to go home and do all
in their power that can be done honestly
to bring out every Republican voter to
the polls, and to carry the Republican
ticket by an old-fashioned rousing maiori-
ty on the second Tuesday in October next.
A meeting was announced to take place
on the street in the evening, to be address
ed by our Ex-Member of Congress, Hon.
John Q. Smith, and at the proper time an
immense number of people gathered in
| front of R. Millikan's book store, when Mr..
| Smith took the rostrum and made, we
think, the best speech we eyer heard him
deliver. He thoroughly ventilated the
Democratic humbug of Greenback ..Infa-
ton and the proposed overthrow of our
banking and financial system, as proposed
by the Democratic party if they can get
control so as to carry their currency tink-
ering policy into effect. Mr.. Smith was at
tentively listened to, and the force of his
arguments duly approved by every intilli-
gent hearer.
