TnE RuMsEILFR AND ms CUSTOMERS
a merchant in Vermont stated, that after
dealing in ardent spirits fourteen years, and
examining his accounts and the effect of
this traffic on his customers, he found that
out of six hundred and forty customers
two hundred and four had become drunk
ards and tipplers, and that number had
died suddenly-one persisted on his way
home on a cold winter evening, twenty
farms and mechanics establishments had
been Sold mortgaged, and decided TO sons +;
and the merchants own loss, in debts on ac-
count of intemperance, was about nine hun
bred and sixty dollars. Convinced that he
was one among the number engaged in max
ing drunkards, he had abandoned the traffic,
and for one year kept wine and brandy to sell
as medicine only but found he could do this
no longer, as the drunkard would send boy
to say, ." want it for medicine" and then
get tipsy.

A NEW HIGH SCHOOL BUILDNG.-Our Board OF
Education, we are glad to learn, have concluded
to try and repair the spacious old school building
with view of having it last some years, and thus
save our taX.paying citizens an expenditure OF
fifty or more thousand dollars. The ward school
building on the old cemetery lot is rapidly ap-
preaching completion, and will contain six good
rooms, which will relieve the central building of
part of its crowd. The second ward building re-
ferred to will cost some twenty thousand dollars,
or more. The central building is not so aged an
edifce, surely, that it should be torn down on
that account and these disastrous financial times
imposes the duty upon all public authorities hav-
ing the power to impose taxes, to go slow in that
direction. Curtailment is demanded, and re-
trenchment and economy enforced. Let our bur
dens be lessened ratf er than augmented. Let the
closest scrutiny be given to all public affairs with
that view,

NEW AND BEA UTIFUL.

Not one of the citizens of Canton, especially
housekeepers, should neglect to visit the large
Carpetand Wall Paper house of ], o. Palmer, No.
80 South Market street, Besides his usually large
and excellent stock Of carpets rugs, wall papers,
mattngs, &C., &C., he has a new and beautiful de-
vice for exhibiting his goods, recently patented.
This arrangement consists of four large mirrors,
placed facing each other in the form of square,
and sample piece of carpet, or wall paper for
that matter, is placed within the square, just
filling the plane surface between the four mi rors
The visitor then gazes into any one of the four
mirrors and the sample appears in the reflection
as large carpet, and purchasers can tell just
how 1t will look as readily as though it were laid
and stretched on the floor, This arrangement is
truly fine and we advise all to call and see it,
whether they purchase or not, Go to No 30 South
Market street.

A YOUTHFUL WANDERER.-On Sunday evening
officer LOthamer found a lost child near the de-
pot whose age was apparently six or seven years
1t was evident he was astray, and the officer took
him in charge and conveyed him to the police
headquarters in the Court House About all the
child was able to make them comprehend de-
fnitely was that his name was Merell or Morell,
and that his father had whipped him. His body
gave strong evidence of having been cruelty
beaten, especially for one so young and tender,
and probably partly at least from this cause the
little fellows mind had become somewhat de-
ranged While in the police office, he ntimated
that he would like a drink and when the officer
gave him water, he drank as though he was
parched from head to foot; he was in hunger, too,
and they fed him. On Monday they took him to
the depot, feeling much brighter and he asserted
that he could tell whenhe got home, and they put
him on the cars in charge of the conductor. The
officers think he belongs somewhere in or about
Wooster.

books being allin shape and in his
hands, according to law, He de-
sires that all who can make 1t con-
venient will come along before
the end of the tax-paying term,
which is June Goth, Every tax

to call at the Treasurers Office
when the crowd is large and the

over the county will make 1t con-
venient to call and fix things In
good time and thereby aCCOmmC-

statement Of facts in regard to the schoo
troubles here would no doubt be very interesting
to many of your readers particularly those of tn,
the neighboring villages.
| Up to the year 1875, this town and surrounding
vicinity composed two sub.dstricts, having two
small houses both inadequate in size and con
venience TO the wants of the scholars. In the
| spring of 1867, Dr. Whiteleather being member
of the Board of Directors and District Clerk, sue
ceeded in obtaining a consolidation of the two
districts and the erection OF a school house, AT
that time large enough for all the scht lars but il
has failed to keep pace with the growth of Young
America, and hence is now too small being calcu.
lated to seat one hundred and fifty scholars, and
our district now enumerates about two hundred
and fifty, giving rise to the necessity of an addi-
tional house, This is the point upon which the
dissatisfaction arose, and those opposed united all
their elements and put candidate in the field to
suit their particular views.
Mr., John Kahler was run against Jacob Shengle,
Esq, and largely beat Shenge in number of votes,
Mr.. Kahler, after being elected and feeling first
rate, concluded that every Office necessarily
afforded some business; hence he went TO work
to force from John Wack few feet of ground ly.
ing adjoining Wack's barn which had been under
fence there, for the purpose of manure yard for
twenty-five or thirty years-was there in the year
1867 when the grounds were bought for the con-
sOlidated school, arranged for by the Board of
Education. Wack had peaceable possession Of
this ground, and held it by permit of the Board of
Education-the only body who had a right to dis
possess him. but Kahler ordered Wack to move
off; Wack refused, unless asked 10 do so by the
lawful authorities Kahler then, with the aid of
said to be very strong man, went to orcibly pull
do the fence belonging to Wack Wack told
them repeatedly to let his fence alone but Kahler
persisted in spite of the warnings, and kept dig
ging away. Finally Wack, having some brush
that had been recently cut from his apple trees in
the pruning season, took one and brushed Kaher
over the head till it bed some, at which time he
concluded that the better part of valOr was re-
treat and let other peoples property alone.

The shooting of brakesman Miller, some time
ago by Williams, the three-card monte and con.
fdenCe man. though severe on Miller, has proved,
to a considerable extent, benefit to the verdant
travelling public inasmuch as the railroad au-
thorities have redOubed their vigilance and
through their care and watchfulness it has become
decidedly inconvenient for that class of sharpers
to ply their trickry games on board the cars at
least on the Ft. Wayne Road. When they get an
opportunity to work on greenhorn, they are
compelled to be unusually sly and quick about it,
and to get out OF the way as soon as possible after
they have won their game The railroad authori-
ties deserve credit for their watchfulness though
the shooting of one of their employees by one of
the gamesterS was the cause of their redoubled
vigilance.
