A RATTLING sHEBANG-A new dictionary, an
unabridged combination of Webster, Johnson,
and Worcester, is about to be complied and pub
lished for the especial use of the voluptuous
young man of the Repository. Being without
fgurehead and the main guy of that establish.
ment being a wooden man and agueish at that
the young pilgrim is compelled to rush up all the
heavy editorial matter under the shadow of local
dash rules. Bully for him he is immense Such
a gush, such rush. such an astounding fux of
polOsylabic mush hasn't been seen or heard in the
land since Helmbold, the crazy buchu man, used
to advertise. Whooperup my Aleck, you're
making an impression-s1ch an impression as a
fat boy makes when he sits down in a snow drift.
Just you stick to your text and don't mind Tom
saxtOn as he flies around dining BascOm for a
guttapercha man. 1t is plausible to circulate the
story now that Mr.. Bascom is sick and unable to
attend to editorial duties, when the real fact is
that Tom manipulates the shebang after proper
consultation with LoushiHer and manipuates
the glowing mind of the amateur pencil pusher
who writes editorials and published them under
the guise of local sensations. Go out and smell
up polecat story.

| UNIoNTowN,-The Union Sunday school Cele-
bration held at this pace on Saturday, the Goth
inst, proved grand success in every particular
At an early hour the people commenced to pour
in from all directions. The different Sunday
schools of Uniontown, headed by their excellent
band and the GreentOwn school preceded by the
Greentown Cornet band, formed in procession
and followed the line of march to his beautiful
grove south Of town. At 1880 a, m. the assembly
was called to order by the President, w, Freash
and the exercises opened with song and prayer
Rev. A. Ream was then introduced and made a
short and appropriate address, At II a. m. a large
delegation arrived from SUflleld, led by the Suf.
field band This swelled the numbers to about
two thousand persons, and the success of the oc-
casion was now assured. When order was again
restored, Rev. W. Bedell of Greentown, was intro
duced and made an address, in which he showed
the part the Methodist church had acted in pro-
noting the Sunday school cause. Dinner was
next in ordder, and we feel assured that this part
of the programme was highly relished by all.
There was an abundance OF good things to eat
and much credit is due the fair ladies for the am.
pie provisions they made. Order was again
called at 19O p. m, and after music by the Union
town, Greentown and suffeld bands, Mr.. Jack.
and interesting address. Music by the Green
town band was next in order, and then Major
Frank Baird of Hartville, the orator of the day
was introduced and made an address in which
he strongly advocated Union sunday-schools and
more harmony between sects. He said we should
on such occasions forget that we are Methodlsts
Lutheran, German Reformed Presbyterians or
Disciples, and only remember that we are chris.
tians; that the Sunday.school is the great feeder
of the church, and should therefore receive its
support and the hearty encouragement of all
parents; that we should ever cherish with tender
recolections the memory of our forefathers in
paving the way to this magnificent civilization,
in the midst of which we flourish, secure and
happy grateful to God for the blessings Of peace
and of civil and religious liberty that we are per-
mitted to enjoy. After music by the various
bands the vast crowd dispersed, highly pleased
with the days dOings,

AMUsEMENTs.-Mrs Chanfraus engagement in
Louisville had fitting commencement last night
in the best play Of the season parted" is at
once the most American and the best American
play written. Mrs. Chanfrau could do nothing
except we'll, but in "parted" she fairly eclipses
herself, and presents, altogether the most admi-
rable and engaging character Louisville has seen
in years. There is much more to be said of play
and actress than we now have opportunity for;
but of the company, with Mrs. Chanfrau at the
head, those who were in the attendancelast night
will unite in the assertion that 1t is the best and
most complete organization outside of New York.
Every character is we'll filled; nothing is done
badly, everything is clearly and artistically fin
ished. In London Assurance" tonight we will
see Mrs Chanfrau is quite another character, and
there will be much curiosity to witness her inter.

tinguished gentlemen went over the line Of the
Valley railroad to inspect and examine the line,
note its advantages and consider the matter Of
conjunction with the Marietta 4 Pittsburgh and
Canton q Coshocton roads, The party was COM
posed Of the following gentlemen: R. B. Dennis,
Cleveland, President Of the Canton & Coshocton
railroad; W. L.. Hylden, General Ticket Agent of

and G. W.Davies Of London, England, and L. V.
Buokius and George Cook Of this city, directors of
the Valley road. The prospects for the early
completion of the roads and the triple connec-
ton are very encouraging indeed, and although
the gentlemen Of the party, whom we mad the
pleasure Of meeting, seemed Idisinclined to say
much, or develop any particulars, they unani.
mously intimated that the completion and con-
nection was as good as settled. The gentlemen
from London are capitalists and stockholders in

AQUATIC-A large crowd gathered at the lake
last Friday afternoon to see the boat race an.
nounced to come off between R. NJ. Ballard and
Frank G. Meyer, Of the Eclipse Boat Club for the
championship cup. Marsh Campbell was chosen
referee and Louie Dumont and JEFF Koontz
posted themselves in the stake boat near the foot
of the lake. Shortly after o'clock the boys got
off with an even start with but little odds as to
the choice Of position, They pulled very closely
all the way down the course and at the stake
boat, as they were making the turn, their oars
clashed and delay was caused. After getting
settled they pulled out for the finish, Ballard
holding the lead from the start at the stake boat
and crossing the line about a length ahead Of
Meyer, who Immediately claimed a foul which
was allowed by the referee: so the race will
have to be repeated. Ballard was very sick at the
finish and got in just in time. The course was
an exact mile, and the time eight minutes and
thirty.hv seconds.
