History Of Perry County.


Circumstances beyond my control have delayed
the preparation and publication of the History of
Perry County, Ohio, which have for some time
had in contemplation.
The book win be a large volume, of about six
hundred pages, well bound and printed, and pub
lished by regular book establishment on good
paper, in good style, and in workman-like man
ner. It will contain a history of the eounty--by
townships, as far praeticablefrom the period Of
the earliest white settlements, down to July 4th,
1877, the close Of the Centennial year. The work
will give the names of the early pioneers, OF each
township, far possible, introducing incidents
connected with the early settlements, and the
growth and progress of all parts of the county.
Also, as far as may be obtainable, separate and
distinct account OF each town, old and new in
eluding,., of course, oyermyertown, Somerset
Mount Hope Crossenville, WoIitown, Maxsille
Oszfeld, Porterville, Straitsville, Millertown,
sego, Mount Perry, ssItillo. Whippstown, Middle
Junction City, Glenford, Moxaha1a, Hemlock,
Ferrara, Bairds Furnace, Buckingham, and any
other old or new towns that may be dug up or made
up before the manuscript work of the book is clos
ed.
The volume will give history of the railroads of
county seat struggles, Of Perry county in connec-
ton with the war of 1872, the Mexican war, and
the war OF 1851 Also as far as information can be
procured, separate and distinct account of each
Chur ch society 10 the county.
As extra-historioal, the book will contain chap
ter upon the mineral and other wealth, and upon
the future prospects Of the county.
Enough has been said to give an idea of the gen.
eral scope and character Of the proposed volume
OF course, local work can not be furnished at so
small cost as one Of general nature. But the
price Of the History Of Perry County viii be fixed
at $500, which is not much In excess Of general
historical works, Of corresponding size and finish.
n. B. Agents are wanted to canvass each town,
ship In the county. A resident agent of the town
ship wod be preferred but this is not essential,
the person applying is a competent one. Person
unknown to me must come well recommended as to
integrity, and sbility to do this kind of work Ap.
plicstion for an agency may be made in person OF
by letter, when Information az TO terms will be
given.
The volume will be published as soon as
thorough canvass of the county be made
Meanwhile, persons residing at n distance may or

INTERESTING ASTE-BELLUM CASE DECIDED.
WASHINGTON, September S.-A case OF
peculiar interest to mail contractors has
Just been officially brought to light. The
facts are briefly these:
A certain mail contract in the State OF
Texas would have expired on the 3Oth
of June. 1861. Congress passed an act on
the 18th OF February, in the same year, cX-
tending this contract until the 30th OF June,
1865. The Texas Convention passed the
ordinance Of secession on the 1st Of Febru-
airy. 1861, and submitted it to the people
for ratification on the 22d OF that month.
On the 31st OF May, 1861, the Postmaster
General ordered mail service on said
route to be " suspended" until it could be
safely restored. This order was issued
under act of Congress OF February -, 1861.
Afterwards, on August I'd in the same year,
the Postmastcr-General issued another order
disseminating said service and annulling
the contract. This was under the express
terms OF the contract, which allowed one
months extra pay for suspension and
annulment, in pursuance OF the general
postal laws. This extra pay never hay-
ing been allowed, application was re-
Gently made for the same. but the present
Postmaster-G General having decided adverse
~ to the claim the case was referred to the
Attorney General for his opinion, and by him
decided in favor OF the claimant. The mer-
its OF the case are not affected by the act OF
Congress passed last session making an APP
preparation for Sundry civil expenses, en-
bracine claims for southern States postal
service. known rs the dnte-6etltm claims.

FRANK LESLIE MAKES AN ASSIGNMENT.
The San says: Frank Leslie has been
compelled to make an assignment. Liabii-
ties, S320.0e0. Mr.. Leslie's embarrassments
