EDITOR JoURNAL:--The Presidential
contest being over, so far as the advocacy
of the claims of the rival candidates are
concerned, l thought may be you could
find room for a few remarks, the result of
my observations on farming, crops, i'm
proyements, &c. In Il former communica-
ton | gave you the opinion of Mr.. s.
Jackson, a large land owner of Richield
township, Henry Co., to the effect that the
present extremely wet season would prove
great blessing to counties of Wood and
Henry, rs it would teach the farmers the
absolute necessity of thorough system of
drainage, without which they would be Ii
able to similar failure of crops at anv time.
Said opinion has certainly proved true, for
almost every road between here and Ma
poleon is rendered nearly impossible by
the dirt thrown from the large bitches
that willing hands are hurrying through
while the weather is favorable; and almost
every farmer is taking advantage of these
outlets to drain his fields, and I think |
m " safely say, that moe real improve
mentin this direction will he accomplished
this fall than has ever been done before.
In journey of - miles saw five farmers
being treated TO dose Of drain tiles, about
which have no hesitation in saving what
| know by experience, that mt ney thua
spent will prove most excellent and prof.
table investment.
The wheat crop as every one is ready to
| admit, except Mr.. .Grumblcr) never looked
better. That which was sOwn early is in
many cases higher now, than it is some
| times in May.
know of some that was sOwn ih Novem-
Der, which has already made considerable
| growth and looks we'll | think that at
least twice as many acres are in wheat this
season as were last, which is good evidence
that farmers have not lost all faith i'm the
/ profitahlenoss OF winter wheat. Mr. Miclr-
ael Smith who lives about miles enst of
! Napoleon, has forty acres that look finely;
he informed me that this crop is generally
successful with him. His fields are under
/ drained.
also noticed that turnips were largely
soYr when other crops failed, and after
oats and wheat, in most cases with success,
and there Is evidently cOnstera bic demand
for them, as | saw more than one car being
lOaded with them.
The hog cholera has somewhat nbatcd,
! though there are n large number yet sicl,
with it, and but few will get well, for here
seems to lie no remedy for il, at least that
is the opinion OF men who have been great
loosers. read in popular agricultural
paper the other day that the disease could
be kept off by proper attention 10 diet
clean illness, pasturage, &c, which thinl,
is mistake, for Mr.. Joseph Rigle of Lib
erty, Henry county, has paid special attcu-
tion to all these points, keeping hls hogs
divided in small lots with ample pasture
good, dry sleeping places, and feeding clean
healthy food, vet he has suffered as severely
il not more so. than many who have en-
tirely neglected these matters. S.

The question to he solved just now is,
GLOW shall we treat the South - The
Southerners have no interest in common
with the Yankees, ms they term the
Northerners. At the South, labor is not
honorable in the estimation Of the whites.
The planter and poor whites both despse
labor 1t is the calling OF slaves God
made noble men to rule, and slaves to
work. Hence il is the ambition OF the
South to establish an empire of slavery.
The freedom and exultation of tile slaves
is mn abomination. Now, since the North
exalts labor and has given freedom to the
slave, and, moreover, has given the slave
citizenship and the rightof franchise, the
whole South is in rebellion. Since the
negro who was once n slave now rules, the
hatred Of the South is bitter. Then to be
ruled by an "ignorant Niger" Too bad
too bad, TO be sure. The ideas Of the
South are not Republican. They have
been taughtby their ancestors to be aristo-
cratic and chivaIrous. We belong TO the
first families, and we will do the fighting
and governing; let us alone. These doc
trines are taught al the fireside and in the
schools. Gel. Lee spent his last days in
teaching his college boys how to fight and
maintain the dignity of Virginia and the
whole South. Ideas die slow The Solid
South is determined and will avenge those
who dare lay hands on her peculiar insti
tutions. How shall we pacify them
Who will tell us? PEACE-MAKER.

SHEPLER--ROACH.---On Wednesday
eve, Dee. 9th, 1876, by Rev G. A. Adams,
Mr.. CALVIN b. SHEPLER and Miss Mac
Gle, eldest daughter of A. Roach, Esq.
On the occasion of the above happy
event, there were collected quite a large
number of relatives, there being no invita-
tions extended, except to three young la
dies outside of the relatives of the bride
and groom. We understand there we're a
large numbor of handsome presents of sill
yer ware. The young couple start off in
their new relations in life amid the happy
congratulations of large circle of frierds.

brance on this occasion.

we neglected last week to call atten-
zion to the corrected time table Of the Day
ton & Michigan Road. Those wishing to
take trains at any of the Stations in Wood
county, will find correct guide in this
table. Also the time cards OF the Maumee
X Toledo Marrow Gauge and the Bowling
Green & Tontogany Roads have been cor
rected to suit their running time.
Comparing the Presidential vote this
year with the census Of 1870, the Putnam
County SentineIclaims an increase in popu-
lation in that county Of 0,862. Better
not base your figures and expectations too
high on the vote of Putnam county this
year. A bar'l o. money IN these hard times
goes a great way toward inhatin' votes and
population.
"A young man came in on the Wabash
Road on Thanksgiving day, left the train
and walked through South Toledo, paid
two cents toll to cross the bridge and en-
quired of some boys skating on the Hy-
draulic where South Toledo could be
found. He was in search OF the wedding at
Mr. MERRILL's. This is severe joke on
our neighboring village.
While on visit to Bowling Green,
on Tuesday Of last week, Judge TULLER
fell in an insensible condition while en-
gagged in conversation with Sheriff BAIRD.
lie received severe bruises in the fall, and
while being carried to the residence Of his
nephew, DIR. TULLER, had two more
spasms of an apoplectic nature. At last
accounts he was getting along we'll.
On Tuesday of last week, the residence
Of Mr.. JONAS HENLINE, living on the road
between Weston and Portage, wns con-
sumed by fire. Nothing was saved, and
the family narrowly escaped with their
lives, some of them being compelled to
jump from second story window. We
since learn that one of the daughters. about
/ g years old, has died from the effects OF
burns and bruises.
There was an unusual brilliant affair
in the matrimonial line at the residence
Of Mr. T. s. MERRILL, South Toledo, on
! Thanksgiving evening, the occasion being
the welding Of Miss KrrTIE MERRILL and
! Mr.. ALBERT o. CASE There was present
| n large circle of relatives and friends from
| Cincinnati, Chicago, Boston and the immc
diate vicinity. The presents were numerous
aud many of them valuable.
\ The proprietors of "LAwsoN's CURA-
TIVE" would be pleased to exhibit to any
one who will call at their office, the many
! testimonials received from parties wht
have been cured OF distressing diseases. II
their pamphlets, which are to be had o
the druggist, will be found a few from
leading citizens and editors, and we woulC
advise everybody to procure one and re;tC
it thoroughly.
We have heard of several family re
unions in town on Thanksgiving day
for which the fatted turkey was slaughter
ed DIR. HASuLToN's family had with then
Mr.. and Mrs. JAS. MURRAY, Of Sidney. Mr.
and Mrs. f. r. MILLER had family gnth
ering and dinner, and Mr.. and Mrs. F
HoLLENBEcK, as is their custom on ever,
Thanksgiving, had reunion Of all theii
grandchildren, which wasamusing as vel
as pleasant.

Twas vain the ocean depths to sound,
Or pierce to either pole.

The bliss for which we sigh;
'Tis no, the whole of life to live,
Nor all Of death to die.
Beyond the vale OF tears
There Is life above,
Unmeasured by the flight Of years,
Aud all that life ia love.
There Is a death whose panR

Around the second death.
