Decoration day was pretty generally
observed throughout the north, and our
exchanges bring to us some very patriotic
and eloquent speeches delivered on this
occasion. The poem written by Mrs.
KATE NJ. SHERWOOD, which appeared i'm
the proceedings OF the observance OF the
day in Toledo, was ereditable alike to her
self and the occasion.
On Wednesday OF last week a span of
the Cherry stree: bridge, Toledo, fell into
the River, precipitating one of eraser &
BRANDS beer wagons, 24 kegs of beer, two
horses and two men into the water. The
men succeeded in reaching shore, but the
horses aud wagon went to the bottom. The
horses were valued at $400, and the total
loss is estimated at between S700 and $500.
The JOURNAL makes a fine show of
local correspondence this week, and yet
there are two communications on the copy
hook which arrived little too late for
insertion this week. While there is moth
ing startling to relate from the respective
localities from which they emenale, all
will be found interesting.
Without fear of lionizing or martyr
izing any one, another experienced teacher
steps to the front this week and testi6es to
the worth OF Mr., TRoUP as z sch hool exam
iner. 1t is evident that the mass Of the
teacherso of the county, while they recog-
nize the right of making changes in our
school examiners, are decidedly opposed
to having il accomplished by "the single
rule of three" and By malice afore,
thought. B
The Women's Foreign Missionary So
ciety OF the Maumee Presbytery, held
session in Centennial Hall, on Tuesday
afternoon. The session was largely at
tended, full delegation coming up from
Toledo ON the Ruby Ry the rafting of
saucers and spoons, it might be inferred by
those holding reserved eurbstone seats,
that after the business was transacted il
had been converted into an ice-cream aud
strawberry festival. No heather, of the
male persuasion, was admitted, and the
JOURNAL had no representative from the
other sex.
