Council Notes.

"A police force will probably be put at
the Harbor as soon as the requirements Of
the law are carried out in such cases. AT
the last meeting of the Council the matter
of building lookup was referred to the
Police comm.
The taxpayers generally will be pleas
ed to know that economy and retrench-
ment is being praeticed by our Council.
The tax levy for 1877, published elsewhere
in this paper, makes the total taxation for
this year 81 mills, which is reduction OF
nearly 20 per cent. on last years levy.
The proposed sewer on Station and
Depot streets will probably be met with ia
vor by the Council at its next meeting. A
petition signed by thirty property owners
on these Streets was presented last Wednes-
day evening, and the matter was referred
to the Comm. on Sewers and Drains, which
Comm. will investigate the matter and re-
port at next meeting.
Perhaps it is not generally known that
the Democracy Of the corporation have re-
Gently had another spasm over that poor
liberty pole standing at the lookup corner.
This is the third or fourth in the series OF
these fits of uneasinsss and trepidation,
that this poor old pole that lifts its tall
head over main street, and which, by the
way-wss brought into this world by Re-
publican accouchers-was rotten as punk,
and its fall. perhaps, upon some Democra-
tic head, was so imminent thar it must be
removed instanter. The previous spasm
got hold of the Council last year, and
Street Commissioner Starkweather was re-
quired to examine-by boring into the foot
Ito ascertain if the tooth of time had eat.
en- into it so as to warrant the laying of the
Democratic Ak at its root; unfortunately
Improved sound as brick. So after stand.
ing another year, it was moved to cut il
down anyway; but the only Republican
member of the Council, modified the mo-
tiOn 10 deputing the Mayor to make anoth-
er examination. This was done on
Wednesday, and it was again found to be
as sound as when planted. Unless this
thing takes desperate shape, we suppose
it will probably stand another year with.
out further molestation. Or perhaps, it
may be best to consider the fact, that the
boring test was made by Republican au-
ger, and therefore, the test is unsstisfacto-
ry, and come down, it must, by the.
This tantalizing evidence of persistant
and incessant soundness, year after year,
is little too much for the tranquility Of
the official mind, and if something should
have to be done, it is nothing more than
might be expected; as the cutting spirit is
rife, and its demands are so inexorable,
would it not be sufficient qualification Of
any laudable ambition, to cut either the
pole or the park?

Eds. Isl.-Your correspondent has had
the pleasure of canvaSsing some parts Of

selling Arnold's Patent Hay Carrier and
Fork, for Babcock & Baker. with good sue
Gees. He found the grass crop very favor
able, and the wheat Is more than an aver
age. 1t is looking extra well. Corn is
backward; complaint general of planting
several times over, on account of continued
cold, dry weather. The apple crop will be
short; peaches plentiful; cherries more
than for years, and Strawberries in abund-
ance.
Homer Stone-our gardener is dealing
out Strawberries at 1O@12c a quart. He
has lots of them. He has a good prospect
of fifty or sixty bushels Of blackberries
with which to supply the wants of friends
and patrons.
The wool trade is quiet. Buyers are not
anxious at 4O@45c. Farmers are looking

Spring not very fattering.
I. b, Snyder, of Bloomfield, has sold
forty head of heavy fat cattle for $72 per
head. He is still on the road. and paws
good prices for good cattle, and helping
the farmers.
In company with z. c. Parker. a sales
man of Kingdoms cheese factory. made
call at that concern, the other day and.
found things in good order-clean and cool
and cheese looking well. Forty a day
are made and mostly shipped to Chas. Hig-
ley, New York, meeting quick sales and
making satisfactory returns. The milk
book of the factory shows that q. C. Par
ker gets the -argest quantity of milk from
the same number of cows, of any of the pa
irons. The number Of pounds of milk at
each milking is 34S pounds from % cows.

Wheat and grass look equally well. z. c.
knows how to farm it, as well as talk horse
and raise good horses. Pleasant Valley
Farm is one mile west of Orwell. near Grand
River. Some sparring took place between
Oren and z. c. as to the best eow-vielding
the most milk at a milking. The bet was
decided by the steelyards in favor of Z. c.,
by half a pound. The quantity was 81
pounds and 2 ounces. Another trial is
agreed upon. Can any one beat that? Let
US hear from Old Doubter." HIG.

Raulun Post.

We learn with some pleasure that the
Post of the G. A. R. of this place has been
designated the Paulus Post-in honor of
our deceased young friend and employee Of
the TELEGRAPH Office, HENRY W. PAULUs,
who was killed in the service and his re-
mains brought home and buried in the
Chestnut Grove Cemetery. In this con-
nection it seems but proper to give brief
sketch of this worthy young man, giving
the chief points Of his connection with us
and the army, that those who have confer
red this homer may have the assuranc~ that
it was worthily conferred. After some four
years connection with the TELEGRAPH of
flee he enlisted in the service, in the early
part Of the war, connecting himself with
Battery c., First Reg. Lit. Artillery, raised
at Geneva, by Capt. Burrows. He remain
ed with the battery through the command
of Capt. Burrows, until he was wounded and
succeeded by Capt. SOuthwick, of this
place, up to the time Of his death, Dec. 81,
1868. He was shot by one of the sharp
shooters by which the battery was sur
rounded, near Rolling Forks Bridge, KY.
The center section of the battery was under
command of Acting Lieut.. Paulus. He
nad just dismounted from his horse when
struck by the fatal shot, from which he
died in twenty-tour hours.
Capt. Southwick wrote-in giving the ac-
count
Al was able to see him a few minutes
after the occurrence. On entering the
room, he extended his hand and said: Cap
tain, have done my last fighting. After
pause he again remarked, i should not
care half so much about it if could nave
got one shot at those rebels.
His loss is deeply mOurned by both the
officers and men of the command, not only
for the prompt and efficient manner in
which he always performed his duty, but
for his many private virtues"
As an evidence of this, and as a slight
token of their regard for the deceased, the
officers of the battery paid all the expense
of the removal of the body to Louisville,
purchase of the burial case, &c.
On the arrival of the body at this place,
the funeral obsequies were attended from
the Congregational church. He was fol
lowed to his last resting place by very
large procession of sympathizing friend:
and fellow citizens. His was pure and
generous heart, and none knew him but to
love him. Let his name and virtues live
together, and be honored by the organiza.
ton that has adopted the first, and may
live to initiate the last.
