Grove & Wolcott are putting
down another we'll on their old stamp,
ing ground, on this side Of the river,
opposite Trunkeyville. If they get
five hundred barrel we'll we shall not
feel badly about it. They have great
confidence in this territory, and as
they are old operators, we would not
be much surprised if they made good
strike.
Donaldson, tho mronaut, and
Grimwood, the journalist. who made
the ascent with him from Chicago,
have never been heard from, and there
exists no doubt but that both persisted
in Lake Michigan. Mr.. Barnum, not
stopping to mourn over poor Donald
son, has engaged Prof. King to run
the balloon hereafter, or at least un.
til he is killed.
Ohio has surplus of demagogues.
Allen, a hard money Democrat, is
running on n soft money platform, and
Carey, temperance lecturer, asks the
whiskey men to make him Lieutenant
Governor. Allen has gone over to
Carey for his money, and Carey has

it flew up, striking the horse and pen

Judge Williams, in recent case
in Elk county, decided that a pur-
chaser of land at a tax sale took no
title at the time; that the owner re-
tained his legal title, and that the
purchaser had no right under his tax
deed until the expiration of the term
for redemption, and no remedy in law
or equity, although the owner might
remove all the timber and everything
else of value on the land before the
two years expired, and thus. if the
land was of no value except for tim
Der, compel the unlucky purchaser at
tax sale to lose the money he had paid
the County Treasurer for the lands.
The Detroit Post, after a calm
outlook through the West, remarks
that unless there is a decided change
in the situation within a short time,
the Republicans will be sure to carry
Ohio, Wisconsin and Minnesota. We
think the Post is correct in its opinion,
while at the same time we have the
fullest confidence that instead of a
change in favor of the Democracy,
the current which has been flowing so
strongly in favor of the Republicans
during the last sixty days will con-
tinue to increase in power until the
day of election, and that it will then
oyerWhelm the Democracy with ineY.
