These are hot days. Whewl how they
take the starch out of fellow. Nary
hole in our sanctum for draft. big enough
to sling a cat through. and our landlord as
sures us that if we can stand it for two or
three weeks, we will be likelyto get safely
through the year.
Capt. Belknap-near the Harbor, on
the east side-has one of the finest three
year old heifers to be found hereabout.
She is short horn Durham, of the Henry
Bowman herd. and brings down the beam
at fifteen hundred. Her milking qualities
are decidedly good.
The continuance of passenger trains
on the A., Y. s P. Road, the interruption
of which was somewhat feared. has been
favorable to us and our subscribers. Our
list is such along that line that an inter
upton of the mails would have been a lit
tie uncomfortable.
We are authorized to say that on ac-
count of the absence of the pastor of the
Presbyterian church, that plaeeYof worship

the sailors at the Harbor last Tuesday.

and one vessel that was going to Cleveland

some grooers at the Harbor.

two appropriate pieces. 1t viii be remem-

Calls, was sleeping car conductor on the ILL
fated train, and whose remains were never
recognized.
Mr.. and Mrs. Warrington and party
reached home inimproved health and spir-
its from their Canada trip of month, on
Monday evening last. \The weather was
good, the roads-as Canada roads general
ly are-fne, the team equal to the demand
upon them, and one of the pair affording
promise, at another season, of adding to
the equine stock Of her owner a counter

"A. C. Stone, Esq, and lady reached
Ashtabula last Saturday, and are soon to
be followed BY Mr.. Walter Roe and lady,
for few weeks vacation under the paternal
roof of these sisters, now residents of Law
renee, Mass. 1t is with pleasure that we
learn of the restoration of Mrs. Stone to
full health. The fact that these visitors
find sister, Mrs. Rice, and their mother
Mrs. Hulburt-both invalids, must de-
tract from the pleasure Of their visits in
the ratio, at least, that it draws upon the
sympathy Of the community.
The present week has been rather an
exception to the general rule ofhealth with
the editor-in-chief. He found it Necessary
to absent himself entirely from his post for
one day, and the effects of the indisposition
left but little disposition for labor for a
day or two after. This, while our principal
eOmpositor was called away from her post,
to close the eyes Of friend-Mrs. John Pc
rev, who died on Tuesday afternoon-was
sufficiently hampering in the work upon
the paper to warrant the expectation of a
falling off Of interest in its general make
up.
Senator Burrows made us a call dur
ing the week to talk up affairs of State, as
he was deputed delegate to the State Con-
vention. The Doctors personal hygiene
has not, evidently, been neglected during
his seasons of legislations. Columbus
life seems to agree with him. He left with
US few copies of the statistics of Ohio.

spirit from a consciousness of having serv-
ed his country well, undoubtedly has had
something to do with this state of things,
and might well have something to do, too,
with his return.
The new wheat crop is being put upon
