HAMMOND.-At her home near East Rich
land, Belmont Co., Ohio, on the morning of
the oath of Jan. 1875, Maggie G., wife of
Alex. c. Hammond and daughter of Thos.
B. Thompson, decd, aged 80 years.
Early in life she publicly professed her
faith in Christ by uniting with the U. P.
Church of High Ridge where she remained
until her marriage which occurred in Mar 70
She was then connected with the L. P. Church
of this place, which privilege she enjoyed un-
til called away. When the dark clouds of dis
ease were lowering around, threatening almost
sure destruction to her good health, (Which she
has always enjoyed and appreciated so highly,
and even life itself, it agitated her consider
ably for a time, for life is dear to one who has
but lately entered on its most sacred duties
with the present bright and prospective, cheer
ing and doubly dear did it seem to her as she
gazed with fearful eyes on her darling boy and
thought of the childish troubles and sorrows
and real dangers and temptations of later years,
that were doubtless before him, when he would
so much need a mothers tender love and SYM
pathy and restraining, holy influence. Yet,
finally through the grace of God, she was en-
abled to cast all her care upon him who careth
for her, saying, SIT is the Lord: let him do
what seemeth good in his sight" Being an
earnest conscientious Christian from childhood
believing the blood of Jesus allsufficient for
her atonement; and feeling its mission had
been performed in her heart, when death
came it had no terror for her-calmly, peace
fully, almost joyfully, she passed away. Nearly
her last words were, as she looked around with
a bright srnile-'T do feel SO happy. Thanks
be unto God who giveth us his victory through
our Lord, Jesus Christ husband, little
son and aiarge circle of friends mourn her
early departure

Mrs. ELIZA ANN MOORE, widow of
the late Gillespie Moore, decd, living
on Wheeling Creek, near the st. Clairs-

both bones of her leg just below the
knee, on Saturday last. She was in the
barn at the time, gathering eggs, and
i'll attempting to get out of the way of
a horse, that she feared was about to
kick her, she fell over trough, with
the above result. Drs. Thompson and
Close reduced the fracture, and she is
as comfortable as could be expected
under the circumstances.

The Spelling Epidemic.

The Presbyterian Banner says: II
any class of the community can con-
graduate itself on the mania for spell
ing that has recently, and so unaccount-
ably, invaded our adult population,
that class is the. whole fraternity OF
aewspaperdom-editors, compositors,
proot-readers and all. If it be madness,
there is a method in it that promises
most refreshing results for the long
suffering brotherhood to whom we
have referred. Spell on, kind friends,
spell on. Our only fear is that the
generouse impulse toward self-improve-
ment will not be permanent. 1t is

Another Hiatoga Going North


The celebrated Hoge horse, "Forest
Hiatoga." better known as "Young
Gold-Dust," has been purchased by Mr..
Edwin Bassett, of Milan, Erie County,
this State, and was shipped on Tuesday.
Forest Hiatoga is beautiful dun, with
black name and tail, 16! hands high,
weighing 1400. He is fast and stylish,
and by horsemen is considered as Sec
ond to none of the renowned stock of
Hiatoga's, and by large odds the finest
animal of his kind in Eastern Ohio.
His turf record is an enviable one. We
can safely say that he has carried away
more ribbons (deservedly too) both
from State and County Fairs than any
other horse in all our knowledge of
horsedom. He has received over forty
first premiums at the various Fairs
where he has been exhibited, including
the first premium for General Purposes
at the Ohio State Fair 1870; first premi-
um for the best and fastest Trotting
Stallion at Ohio State Fair i'm 1872, and
three first premiums as Best horse OF
any age or Breed at County Fairs.
We are glad to note that this stock OF
horses win favor about Cleveland,
where they are posted as to what good
horses are. MIR. Bassett, the purchaser
of Forest Hiatoga,' purchased three
years since his sire, Couch, or Flying
Hiatoga,' from Jacob A. Holloway
near Flushing, and was the owner o
him when he died in October, 1872
Farmers and horse fanciers of our coun
ty will regret to learn that such stocl

only cost dollar-lined at that. There

in the right place for cheap Goods. My

FRANK has succeeded in receiving his
customers in the usual manner, with
politeness and courtesy, for which he
is noted by all who deal there. Inva-
riably only the ONE PRICE is asked and
taken-no deviation is permitted at
