ssRlue Jeans.v

Tall, slim, angularly built. with a
suit Of blue jeans and linen waist
coat, q smooth shaven face, except a
short stubby growth of dark whiskers
under the chin, dull grey eyes, deeply
sunken, and a almost expressionless
face, with dark stiff hair slightly
sprinkled with grey-such was the
Democratic candidate for Governor
Of this State. as he stood before the
peopleof Marshall county on Wednes--
day last. OF his manner Of dress or
style of speaking we have nothing de-
rogatory to say-that is purely per-
sonal matter; but ofwhat he said crit
icismis allowable, The refrain of his
song was Economy" Stationery"
Lemonade" and appropriations"
One would think to hear him talk
that there never was any attempt
made at economy in congress
until he got there, that there never
was, thoroughly honest man there
until your "Uncle Jimmy" came to
the front as Chairman of the Commit
tee, on, Accounts, His speech was a
reiterated play on. these themes, in
dicative Of housing parsimony and
sitytofellwhere every cent went
to, . which, thou8h commendable in its
way, must be joined to some noble
qualities before it can call forth the
respect or the enthusiasm Of the peo-
pie. ~" t'lsuii ''' s'ii iA5r '-a ~.
s The man claims to be honest, but
he has some damaging charges yet to
be answered.; ne may be economical,
but heis also parsifnonious. But as
against these probabilities there are
certaintieso to which he can lay no
claim. He is not educated; he is not
refined he is not we'll informed man
even for a Congressman: he Is not
gifted with any executive ability; he
IS not above mediocrity in the grasp
OF his mind; he is neither magnani-
nous, phiIanthropfc; generous or self
respecting. hSpeIij nus spoI s-'i'R
sa These things he is not, but there
are other things he ,cds not and did
not. He was not a warm, nor even
open, supporter OF the Union; he
was not friend of The soldier; he
was not in favor OF arming the ne
groes; he was not believer in put
ting down the rebellion. He has been
charged with bribery, and never de-
MED It: he has said that "a mule and
a niger could never get tired" he
has always paidhis ahelp' from TWEEN
ty TO twenty five per cent. less than
his neighbors. He did work his men
16 hours a day; he did say that if

The Hon. James ID. Williams, Dem

of economy and reform in national
and state affairs. AS Chairman of
the Committee on Accounts he is
said to have saved thousands of dol

Hon. Thos. b. Cox,

And family, o. Lancaster, spent few
days recently in visiting their relatives
and numerous friends in this place.
Mr.. Cox WAS at one time one of the
most active and conspicuous friends OF
Somerset. and his services in behalf of
the town are held in grateful Temem-
brance by all its citizens who are familiar
with them; and of course he is cordial
" welcomed by all when he pays the
village visit While citizen Of the
place, he was more extensively
engaged in merca ntile persuits than
perhaps, any other person who was ever
engaged in business in the place. He
used TO "carry" an immense stock OF
groceries for a country dealer. Some
times he would have in stock as high
az twenty-five and thirty hogsheads Of
sngar,.a hundred barrels of molasses and
syrupa, hundred and twenty five to a
hundred and fifty barrels of whiskey, gin,
wines, ETC., and TO store these large stocks,
he used the cellar of the building he oc-
cupied with his grocery, and the large
cellar .under the johnson block. Be-
sides all this, he carried a proportion
ate stock of other goods His patron
age was large Of course, and extended
to many Of the neighboring villages
which now go elsewhere for their sup
plies. He was popular business man,
because he dealt strictly on the square;
and successful one because he knew
how, when, and what to buy.
He was desirable citizen in all re-
spects-pubIis spifited, liberal, and So
ciable; and in the struggles which the
citizens of the town made to maintain
their rights, he WAS among the most
resolute and efficient who participated
in the glorious but unsuccessful contest
He was also among the last to discover
that further effort was useless.

The Teachers Institute which con-
vened in this place on Monday last. will
close its session this evening. 1t is
largely attended by teachers, and others
interested in educational matters, from
all parts Off county, and an unusual
interest generally, seems to..be taken in
its proceedings.
Interesting lectures were delivered on
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday
evening", by Dr. Paul, Of Muskingum
College; Revs. Van Law and Weisman,
Of this place, and Profs. Dilts and
Acker.
Prof. Wolf, Of Lancaster, lectured
during the day sessions upon topics
bearing upon school government, &c.
The Institute will close with grand
reunion and good time, socially, at the
Hall this evening.
Throughout the session, the large
Town Hall has been well filled with
spectators, and the nature of the pro-
ceedings has been such as TO not only
benefit teachers but to deligbtand bene-
ft their auditory. We believe the pres
ent Institute is pronounced by the teach
ers in attendance to be one Of the mos,
profitable and enjoyable occasions of the
kind that has ever been held in the
county.

After the Fire,

The ruins in the burnt district begin
to show signs Of resurrection life. The
foundation of Mr.. Mautz's new house is
already laid and Mr.. Russell has
thrown down the walls and is clearing
away for the purpose of rebuilding his
hotel. Mrs. Cody's house has been, re-
rooted and repaired. Contribution in
money, material and labor have been
literally given to assist in this, while
the more immediate and pressing wants
of the sufferers have been relieved. Con-
tributions from County and town have
flowed into the hands of the Executive
Committee and have been distributed
by them only after personal examina-
tion of the wants of the different fami-
lies and due delIberation as to the sup
ply. The Ladies Relief Society as or
ganized consisted Of the following Off
GERS: President-Mrs. DR.. Skinner;
Secretary-Mrs. William Weir; Execu-
tive Committee-Mrs. Rev. Louckes,
Mrs. NJ. F. Scott, Mrs. r. F. Van Law i.
They have found their work arduous
and burdened by responsibility, but sus-
tained by the most perfect agreement in
the Committee in making all the dis
tributions. and especially have they
been grateful for the liberalty that en-
abled them to bring comparative COM
fort to those families made desolate by
the fire. There is still room for liberal
ity, and especially to the building Com
mittee that may be handed to Messrs.
Leavitt, Ashbrook d Russell, but the
women's work is done and has been
faithfully, patiently, impartially done.
1t will be long time before this ghast
/ ly wound to our village is healed and
the Losses to many families will never
be made good, many percious things
swallowed up in the roaring, terrible
conhagration; but with this memory
there will ever be the grateful remem-
brance of the sympathy of friends and
strangers, expressed in this substantial
form and going into every family where
it was believed aid was needed or would
be welcome. j.. v.
