The AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY is an
epitOme of newspaper history. 1t is also re-
garded as an official register of crrculations.
This feature requires the closest scrutiny to
prevent it from leading to abuses. The plan
adopted by the publishers of the DIRECTORY to
secure correct and trustworthy reports is rigid
in its requirements, and is adhered TO with
impartiality. Successful publishers, who have
something to gain by comparison, are gener-
ally prompt, not only TO send reports in con-
formity, but give Messrs. Geo. P. RoweII & Co.
such information as enables them to weed out
unsubstantiated statements of pretenders in
journalism. The popularity of the book, and
the general confidence in its accuracy and good
faith, are attested by the immense body of ad-
vertisements it receives. 426

RECENT EVENTS.

Tilden was nominated by theSt Louis
Convention on the third ballot.
Weather in Washington is excessively
warm. Many cases of sun-stroke re-
ported.
An enthusiastic Hayes and Wheeler
meeting was held at Cincinnati on the
night of the 9th.
Rev. H. w. Beecher has engaged to
lecture eighty nights during the season,
for which he is to receive the sum of
$4,000.
Leading Republicans urge Blaine not
to accept the Senatorship, but remain
in the House, where his leadship is in
valuable.
The Secretary of the Treasury has di-
rected the payment of the July interest
to be commenced on the 9th inst,
without rebate.
Oliver Wendell Holmes has COM
pleted his "Hymn of Welcome to all
Nations" which is to be sung at the
Centennial ceremonies at Philadelphia
on July 4th.
The story that the wife of Captain
Sawyer, of the "Orpheus," is insane, is
denied by the friends of that lady, she
having left San Francisco in her usual
health in a ship commanded by her
husband, bound for Calcutta.
The National Democratic Convention
assembled at st. Louis on the 9th.
John A. McClernand, of Illinois, was
chosen Chairman. The delegation was
fdlI. The crowd was less than at Gin
cinnati, but was the largest ever seen al

Mexican silver coin, the Chamber o.
Commerce, San Francisco, passed reso.
lutiOns that the members would only
receive Mexican dollars for 9Oc, half
dollars for 45c, quarters for zoe. Thi.

The programme for the celebration at
Ashland, as published in the Tsdin0s,
shows that the Declaration of Inde-
pendence will be read by Miss Kate
Thornton, Grafton delivered by Mrs. c.
Goodchild, and Centennial poem read
by Miss F. Myer, while the various
committees are composed largely of
ladies. 1t has not been long since
woman's part in Fourth of July festivi-
ties consisted solely in preparing the
dinner. This latter is not now neg
lected, as the grand array of names on
the "Table Committee" shows, while
the patriotic and intellectual part OF
the feast is presided over by them as
well. Another proof that "this also
they can do, aud not leave the other
undone."

A VALUABLE DISCoVERY.-Dr. j. p. Miller,
practicing physician at 327 Spruce street, Phila-
delphia, has discovered that the extract of cram
berries and hemp combined cures headache,
either bilious, dyspeptic, nervous, or sick head
ache, neuralgia and nervousness. This is a tri-
umph in medical chemistry and sufferers all
over the country are ordering by mail. He
prepares it in pills, at 50 cents box. The Doc

Oily substances always aggravate skin dis

than beneficial. GLENN's SULPHUR SOAP,

Small Pox.

Don't be alarmed, gentle reader, there
is no small pox in Findlay. Such re-
port has prevailed, and has alarmed
many persons throughout the county,
but it il wholly without foundation.
The story grew out of the fact that
n young daughter of George Crossley,
who lives about four miles from Findlay
was taken with the disease and died on
Saturday last. She had been visiting in
Wood county, report says, some time
before, and was taken sick while in
School, AS soon az the nature Of the
disease was discovered, the school was
dismissed, and 1t can scare, ly lie said
that any of the scholars were even 'ex-
posed" to the disease.

Installation Services.

In making the changes in this paper,
last week, we overlooked speaking of
the installation of Rev. r. K. Suther-
land, as pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church of this place, on Thursday even
ing, May 4th. The church was filed
almost to its utmost capacity with one
of the most attentive and intelligent
audiences that Findlay can produce.
The ladies OF the church had decorated
the pulpit and space around and behind
it with wild flowers and evergreens in a
beautiful manner, showing good taste
and at the same time an appreciation of
Rev. Sutherland, which must be very
gratifying to him. Rev. EcCaslin, of
Sidney, preached tha sermon, and asked
the necessary questions. Rev. Bushnell.
of Fremont, gave the charge to the pas
tor, and Rev. johnson, OF Lima, to the
congregation. Nearly all the ministers
of Findlay were present, and took part
in the services. Altogether the affair
was both pleasant and profitable.

A Widely Applicable Remedy.

Few remedies are applicable TO such q
wide range of disorders as Hostetter's Stom
ach Bitters, and this not because it has
special properties adapted to the cure of

absurd, but on account of its wonderfully
improving effect upon the general tone of
the system, and its Alternative action upon
the organs of nutrition, secretion and dis
charge Besides its well known properties
as Il remedy for intermittent and remittent
fevers, dyspepsia, constipation, torpidity OF
the liver, general debility. urinary and utter
inc difficulties, it invariably proves to be
highly seryiceable in overcoming an9mia

Clean Up.

The Board of Health of Findlay hava
issued posters urging parents and guar
dians, to attend to the vaccination of
ali children under their care, and also
urging upon property owners and rent
ers the proper cleansing and deodorizing
of cess pools, pig pens, sewers and alleys
about their premises. IL not done with
in reasonable time. the matter will be
attended to by the Board at the expense
of the parties. The advice of the Board
is good and should be followed. After
ter so long a winter there must have ac-
cumulated on lots, and in back alleys
much garbage and refuse matter which
should be removed. Let it be done 1T
once, and the Sanitary condition Of the
city improved.

The following facts in relation to the
progress of the construction Of this road
cost, eta., is FROM the Cincinnati Com
mercidl::
Frost, Stearns & Co., the Railroad
contractors, of this city, are now engage
ed in completing the Columbus & Toledo
railroad. Mr.. Stearns informed our
reporter that most of the grading is COM
pleted, aud that steam excavators will
be put on the road within week or
two to finish the balasting. The road
12a miIes long; is a direct route between
Columbus and Toledo, and passes
through Delaware, Marion Fostoria, and
other small towns. 1t will cost about
SIS, 200 per mile, furnished with steel
rails, including twelve miles OF side
track. The principal importane' of
the road will be its connection with the
Hooking Valley, which Is operated by
the same Board of Directors.
This road will give Findlay direct
route via Carey to Columbus.

conspicuous and honorable a place in
this as in other departments. The re-

Shall We Celebrate Q

The Fourth Of July is approaching.
and as yet no steps have been taken in
this place for celebration beiitting the
occasion. If, under ordinary eircum-
stances, the day has been allowed to
pass without any special effort to digni-
fly it, this year should prove an eAcep-
ton, and every public-spirited citizen
should feel it privilege to join in
public rejoicing that he has been per-
mitted to see the day that marks cen
tury of eXistance since the Declaration
of Independence. If We wonld have IL
celebration, honorable alike TO our town
and the occasion, steps should be taken
Mt once to organize the matter
