The firm of Melvin, Silcott and Co. is
composed of men of long experience in
trade, having been broughtup in the bus
iness in which they are now engaged
from their youth to the present time, they
are, therefore, well qualified to conduct

In the purchase of their present stock,
they have used their utmost care and
best Judgment in selecting such goods as
will suit the masses
In addition to their large aud varied
stock of nice dress goods, which Is nnsur-
passed in style and beauty, they have an
immense stock of all the styles in the
market, which they are selling at the old
prices, although in the article of cotton
alone the raw material has advanced AZ
per cent. within the last 30 days, with 6
corresponding advance in the manufae
tured article.
They offer no bats to induce purchaser
to call-such as best prints at 4c., which
every person that can read knows cos
&c. by the case; or, best muslin at sac
which costs 91ac. in quantity and so on
and make up the loss thus sustained thre,
times over in the balance of the goods
they sell the customer, but every articI
is aimed to be sold at the closest margin
possible and no advantage taken of tn
unsuspecting.
They cordially invite every one in neet
of goods to call and examine their stock
and compare prices generally.

Gentlemen of the convention, again
thank you for the honor you have con-
ferred upon me, and bid you good day.
Mr.. Mfllikan next addressed the con-
vention briefly as follows:
Nr. President and Gentlemen OF this large and
respectable Republican Coareation
Your committee have informed me that
you have hOnOred me with the nomination
as the Republican candidate for Repre-
sentative to the State legislature of Ohio.
For this mark of your kindness, gentle
men, please accept my heartfelt thanks.
1t shall be my effort, as it ever has been,
to secure the election of the entire Repub-
lfcan ticket. / hope the Republicans of
the county will march in solid phalanx
to the polls and deposit their ballots for
the entire ticket. Do this, and the vic
tory is ours.
/ know we have vigilant opponents to
meet-oppOnents who will use every
means in their power to defeat us; oppo-
nents whose State rights principles, if
carried out, must destroy the govern
ment. | know they have placed at the
head of their ticket two Generals of the
| army, who made good, loyal records for
the Union; but, gentlemen, these Gener-
ais have gone back on the good record
they made, and have gone over to the enc
my. They have made record in the late
congress that we must hold them to; and
having gone back on their army record,
their friends have now no right to claim
| any credit for them on the score of loyal
| deeds, in this campaign.
Should you elect me as your Repre-
sentative to the State legislature, it shall
be my constant aim and effort to advance
| your interest faithfully and honestly to
the extent of my ability. Gentlemen,
| have no interest to subserve in legisla-
| tive capacity separate from yours. What
| is best for your interest is best for mine.
But shall be compelled to resume my
seat. Again | thank you for the honor
| you have inferred upon me, and also re-
new my thanks for former favors.
| Mr.. Carpenter rendered his thanks to
the convention for the honor conferred
upon him in neat and pleasant little
speech, which was well received, after
which the convention adjourned.

Since the bust up of the Won Blumen
pedestrian party at Hillsboro last week,
Mr.. A.-F. Raveret, agent of the party,
has written a letter to the Springfield
Republic, in which he charges Mr.. Burt.
Miller, the manager and trainer, with all
manner of badness. The party reorgan-
lied at Hillsboro, Mr.. Raveret and wife
and mother being left out of it, and Miss
Won. Blumen going with Miller and
wife. Mr.. Raveret, starts out by stating
that Miller's real name is WIN. H. Roose-
welt, and Elza's name is Carrie Kiner.-
He charges that Miller has been practfc-
ing frauds upon the people. He says
that in her 100 mile walks Miss Won Blu
men never actually walked more than 80
or 60 miles, the balance being given her
by 'him-Raveret-a timekeeper, and
says that Miller gets "beastly drunk''
and appropriates money belonging to
Miss Won B. He states that she is under
contract to Miller, and gets $25 for every
100 mile walk, and a benefit in every
city. Mr.. Raveret's charges should be
taken with some allowance, under the
IL tlCfC was Il SWlHtllC
as to the number of miles walked he ac-
knowledges himself to have been party
to it. As to Miller's conduct, there was
nothing ont Of place in it while here, so
far as known, and the entire party con-
dncted themselves properly, and their
entertainments gave satisfaction.

In the last issue of the HERALD there
was published card over the signature
of f. c. Allen, in which he propounds
certain insulting and nonsensical ques-
tions, and charges, in substance, that the
Mayor, on the 4th day of July last, au-
thorized. the violation of law.
In reference to this charge and the i'm
pudent questions, we regard it our duty
to say, in defense of Mr.. Barclay, that
from what we knowof the charges of
Mr.. Allen, that the Mayor did not au-
thOrize the violation of any law on that
day.
Considering how honestly, faithfully
and fearlessly the Mayor has discharged
his duties, we are of the opinion that he
