Died on shipboard.

The schooner Eliza Garlieh, of Chicago,
left Buffalo last Monday night for Chicago,
having among her crew sailor by the
name of John Stafford. When last seen
alive he was in the forecastle, in good spir-
its, and playing on mouth-organ. Tues
day morning he was found dead in bunk,
having died during tie night without the
knowledge of any one on board. Yester-
day noon the Garlich anchored off this
harbor and hoisted signal for tug,
which was answered by the Dexter, which
brought the remains ashore, and were tax
en- charge of and buried by the township
Trustees. Owing to light winds the
vessel was from Monday night until Thurs
day noon in running from Buffalo to this
harbor, and the corpse was in an advanced
stage Of decomposition.

No, We Thank You.

Secretary Pinney of the County Agri-
cultural Society, informs us that contract
has been entered into with Prof. King, to
make an ascension from the fair grounds,
in balloon OF 1900 cubic feet capacity.
This is sufficient to carry two persons,
with plenty of ballast, for voyage of
several hours. The editorial corps of the
county are notified of this fact, and the
seat in the car will be at the disposal of
him who will come down the heaviest for
the enjoyment of the aerial voyage. As
The Senior prefers to take his translation
in the natural way, he would leave to
those who need sxtraneous means in go
ing up, his chance in the balloon ascent.
Those fellows who catch their brain pabu-
lum on the seventh day of the week, may
need just this kind of assistance in mount
ing heavenward, and they have our good
wishes for favorable arrangement with
the Secretary, in securing it.

Broke His Neck.

A Swede by the name Of John Anderson
met sudden and unexpected death at the
HarbOr last Wednesday morning. He, to-
gether with number of other coal heav-
ers, was sitting on coal car that they had.
just unlosded, when Anderson was seen to
fall backwards to the dock; as he seemed
to be dangerously injured, medical aid was
summoned, but he died in less than five
minutes. A coroner's jury was summoned,
composed of W. o. Nettleton, Henry Isra-
Ell, D. D. Mstteson, c, Thayer, P. Roach,
and Wilson Galloway, by Acting Coroner
Bugbee, who with DR.. F. D. Case held a
post mortem examination, which, with the
testimony, showed the deceased came to
his death by afracture of the neck, caused
by fall from a car.
Anderson was about % years of age,
married and leaves two children. He was
one of the first party of Swedes to find
employment at the HarbOr.

That Encampment.

1t seems that Col. Robbins of the 10th
Regt. has occasion to feel little dissatis-
fed with the arrangements that have been
made for the encampment of his regiment
at Painesville, and he probably wishes now
that he had ordered the encampment at
Ashtsbula instead of that hamlet. 1t is
said the Painesville & Youngstown R. R.
had offered to carry the regiment to Paines-
vile for 45 cents per man from Niles and
go cents per man from Youngstown, and
the guns and equipments of the Youngs-
town and Niles batteries free; it was also
said that Painesville had subscribed 800,
when in fact she had raised only $500, with
a promise, that if possible, 800 more would
be added. 1t is now reported the P. & Y.
railroad refuses to transport the regiment
on the terms agreed upon and demands a
rate which is nearly equal to regular fare.
Ashtabula reported $3.50 subscribed and
promised even more; transportation was
offered over the A, Y & P. road at lower
rates than the Painesville's narrow fgougs"
railroad. In fact the transportation would
have been done for nothing by the A. Y. &
P. road had the matter of locating the en-
campment been fairly done.
Col. Robbins has issued his orders for
the encampment to be held at Painesville
and it probably will be held there, but the
Col. has learned lesson that he should re-
member.

of whose ability and fitness there can be
no question whatever. These gentlemen
are practical and scientific ship-builders,

ROCK CREEK.

Friend Reed:-Your town is not as
successful under the leadership Of Gen.
Ihorp in reaping official honors as might
have been expected. The good people
in this quarter, begin to admit the
truth OF what was stated by the TELEGRAPH
concerning "Poor Yorick" last fall, and
especially these gentlemen who leaned up-
on that arm Of straw, must feel that some
thing has dropped. The purpose of thin
ming out county officers from Geneva, and
at the same time placing the people of
Ashtabula under lasting obligations has
been left by the Convention rather bald
and palpable. In the defeatof Lamb, and
the placing of candidate for Sheriff in the
very locality where the "young man de-
sired vacancy. was a development not
put down in the programme. The Con-
vention was rather rough in thus sitting
down with its whole weight upon him so
suddenly. After making the proffer Of
his services as Jones delegate, it was not
meet that he should have advised or en-
couraged an Independent candidate for
Sheriff. If, however, that nomination for
Congress should have its desired effect,
such little Vexatious tri1es that are here
alluded to, will be Of light weight. The
gait of official preferment, like that Of
and reform, is apt to be halting
and unsteady, but assurance and persever-
ance will accomplish much, and though its
ways are sometimes a little devious, not
unfrequently wins in the end. PLUCK.
