Stock EGenlss

From the Pittsburg Price Current, Oct. Q, 1879.
The prices which hogs are now bring
ing at East Liberty are relatively higher
than at any other market in the United
States.
The following shipments were made
from New York last week: Live cattle,
66 head; dressed beef, 1 $50 quarters; no
live sheep; l $50 carcasses of mutton.
The American StocknaR reports the fol-
lowing receipts of live stock ut Chicago
for the month of September: Cattle, I20,-
23S head; hogs, 392, ,089 head; sheep, 24,-
040 head.
From July 10 to September 20, period
of two months, the live stock exports from
! New York reached the following totals ::
Live cattle, IA, ,94l head; live sheep, 7,2S2
head; quarters of beef, 96,S ,S37; carcasses
of mutton, lO,ll3.
The amount of local stock received at
this market for the three months ending
September 80, footed up 20, ,73G head more
than for the corresponding period in 1875
Ia gain of 80 per cent. East Liberty's
prospects are much better than they have
been for years.
A fact worthy of note in connection
with the advance in cattle is that the mos
marked improvement is on the common
shipping grades. This only makes it tn,
more certain that a heavy run and a re
action will follow, as there are vast herd
of common stuff lying back for 4 gOOt
| market. Good cattle had not declined s.
much, and their advance is correspond
2 ingly less.

Died Game

Guetig, the scOundrel who murdered
Young girl in indianapolis, and who re-
Gently hanged for the crime, has been
made the subject of mock and morbid
sympathy in some quarters, and has been
written about in characteristic and maud
lin lrivel, as ''the unfortunate boy VINO
died game" To which the Attica (lnd,)
Ledger thus replies:
Yes, he died game. True, he was cow
ard enough to kill an innocent and de-
fenseless girl, who piteOuSly begged for
mercy that he did not feel. But he died
game. He was whisky guzzler and a
regular patron of houses of prostitution.
But he died game. He was mean enough
to feign insanity so long rs it gave him
hope of escaping the gallOws, and only
abandoned the sueaking subterfuge when
it was scared out of him by the faller.
But didn't he die game? He was a sneak,
| Il coward, and woman slayer, and then
had the audacity to claim credit for dy-
! ing game! How prepOsterous, how mon
! stroIis the idea Of there being any atom
of manliness or heTOism about such 1
! travesty of humanity. There can be nc
| credit in boldly or defiantly meeting
! death under such conditions. He was
mean fellow living, and died like the dog
| he was. The world is better for his tax
ing off, whether he died game or wen
| trembling and sObhing to the hell tina
| hlushed to admit him. The fewer gamey
| fellows like him we have, the safer will b.
| wives, sisters and daughters. We believ
| in hanging them without mercy and with
out delay Let them die game.
To all which we say bully for til,
Attica Ledger! 1t is a great pity tha
the maudlin sympathizeTs with guilt
murderers could not be made to take til
place of those murderers' victims. SOCl
city would lose nothing by their absence
and the world would be rid of just tina
many fools-C Columbus Herald.

NEIeHRORHOOD NEWS.

Mr.. Gimperling, of the Dayton and
Southeastern Railroad, informs us that
his road has just completed the laying of
a switch at the east end of the road to a
recently-Opened mine of camel coal, said
to be very extensive and of rare excel
lence in quality. A couple of tons were
sent over to Dayton last week, and it was
pronounced better than any camel coal
ever before seen. The owner of the mine
has about twenty-eight acres of ground
in that Immediate locality, which has
suddenly advanced in value to a very
comfortable Chilljcothe Register.
The biggest law suit that has ever been
instituted by parties, residents of this
place, was the one commenced on Tues
day of last week by G. /. Rucker 81 Son
against the Springfield, Jackson and
Pomeroy Railroad Company. 1t will be
remembered that they were heavy con-
tractors and builders of this road, and
are now suing for the balance due on
their bill, which is $74, ,O24.57, with inter
est for one year. The petition covers
over one hundred pages of legal cap pa
per. The attorneys for the plaintiffs are
W. H. Irwin, of this place, and Judge
w. H. Stafford, of Chillcothe. On Tues
day evening Deputy Harris served the
summons on the company's agent at thi:
place, A. N. Hurd, who appeared to bt
greatly astonished, thinking that he wal
being sued for this amount, and frankly
confessed he could never pay it. 1t wal
then explained to Greenfield Cor
HiLIsborO NelCs.

The NeRrOExOdus.

The colored people of the South still
have their eye on Kansas, and it is eX-
pected that as soon as the crop season is
over, there will be further emigration to
that State. 1t is not easy to predict what
will come of this, either to the Southern
people or to the negroes. The SOnth can
not very we'll afford to lose the labor
which is going from them, and how they
are to replace it, is impossible to see. The
negro is accustomed to the climate and
accustomed to the work in that section
If others-the Chinamen, for instance
are brought in to occupy the vacant place,
it must necessarily be some time before
they can be used as profitably as the col
Ored people can be used.
The effect upon the negro himself must
be adverse in some degree. He must be-
come acquainted with his new home and
his new surroundings, and it will take
some time to do this. Winter is coming
on, and those who now emigrate can do
nothing until Spring for there own sup
port. 1t would seem like a bad state Ot
affairs all around.

Insurance Companies.

Ohio Life Insurance Companies can
now only invest their funds in first mort
gage upon real estate, worth double the
amount loaned thereon, exclusive of
buildings, in Government Bonds, and in
lans upon their own policies not exceed
ing the reserve value thereof, and must
possess a sufficient amount of resources,
with the low rate of four Der cent. inter
est, to meet their obligations when they
mature. The superintendent must an
nually examine every Ohio Life Insur-
ance Company, and see that they possess
the necessary investments, and that they
are legally made. The laws of Ohio also
provide that after three annual payments
have been paid upon life policy, in case
of death the Company shall be estOpped
from defending itself by reason of any
errors, omissions or misstatements in the
application except as to age or fraud
which in effect makes Ohio policies incOn-
testable after three annual payments
have been made. No other State is so
strict in regard to the safety of it's policy
holders. The Union Central Life Insur-
ance Company of Cincinnati is the larg-
est Ohio insurance company, and confines
its loans to pOlicy-hOlders and largely
among farmers. Its an institution which
is entirely trustworthy, and managed by
| gentleman of high standing and large
| business experience. E. 4. Ramsey
general agent, Washington c. H., o., rep
| resents this Company.
