LUDLOW.
TIE season for the holiday of fairs being
hard by, we see that the farmers and me-
chancs' union is again 10 the field with q
| good looking poster, advertising its eighth
annual exhibition. The premium list and
various committees appear in pamphlet
form from the job press of r. S Warner,
o, also the posters, and the whole aprears
in last weeks issue of the Ludlow Tribune
From what We cas- learn, we camo tC
the conclusion that if there have been any
screws Loose IN any departments heretofore
| fhara 10 to hp n n rpnntinn nf tho
hereafter.
Everything tends TO strengthen the con
victon that the coming fair to be held a
the soce,y's grounds, m dway between thi
place and Proctorsville, September 11tl
and 18th, will be second 10 no previou
and like occasion.
Accidents aud casualties have been quit
frequent in this section and its immediate
surroundings the present season, as tn
columns OF THE GLOBE have witnessed
from time to time.
Silas Lawrence, formerly Of this town
now of Cavendish, lost son by death
short time since, the procuring cause o
which was over working and then gon
into the water when in an improper con
dltion, the consequence that which shout
be warning to all Others, especially boys
a sudden and premature death.
? The legal fraternity here are about q
, busy class apparently as we have. b
sides milling home grsts they are quit
frequently called to towns anywhere frUr
q ten to fifteen miles away, and in the cas-
1 of Hon. w. II. Walker, who is employc
quito extensively as auditor and referee,
much greater distance. At this Writing
Goth inst-the above named attorney is IL
e gagged IN behalf of the state in trying cas-
J. of assault and battery. which occurred ;
A Weston Monday the 2Sth.
The assaulting party is understood to |
=, one Jackson, who has raised some cons
derable dust in the samo line on one
o more previous occasions. The victim G
y the present occasion, is one VIM. 5. II
berts. 1t would seem that Roberts hs
appeared as a witness against jackson c
o a former trial when he, jackson, was I
= tor a similar offense. Meeting Roberts c
n Monday, in pasture, Jackson, it wou
seem, tho ght it favorable opportuni
to get even with Roberts on the score
d his having testified against him in the ca
f alluded to. And go from hard words
70 harder blows being but step, it ia So
that Jackson improved the opportunit
r. utilizing a stake for the purpose; and o;
II report is to the effect that not being ful
E. satisfied with stalking his victim, he W
on the point of raising his knife, but q
IN distance appearing on the scene at I'll
~ critical moment, further demonstrato
te were stayed. We hope for the credit
common humanity that the facts
NJ brought out at the examination will have
less murderous aspect than as at first I
presented. OF course allowance NUT {
ways be mad fore the liability Of exsgger
tion, in the first reports, of cases of Il
u character.
" Weston has as reliable and wealthy clG
al of Inhabitants as any other town of
,o same population, but certain untoward Ct
Q cumstances have led to large amount
litigation for few years past, much 10 t
regret, no doubt, of the best portion of
G. reliable citizens.
