The election passsd Off quietly, both
parties polling large vote. The Dem
ocrats elected their. r.Assessor-Wm. II.
Pierce-by twelve majority, though in
this case there was no electioneering
done on the part Of the Democrats, the
advice being given to vote for the best
man. OF course we got scooped !"
on the general result, but had every
County in the State been as we'll or
ganized as old Portage, it might have
been different Que thing seems to be
pretty well settled in the minds of
those who voted for a continuation of
the Radical regime, viz that the un.
ion is NO more. Said an influential
Republican after election: "The
States be id! This is Nation ~
So that despicable catchword is already
becoming part of their creed. it.
The coolest piece of trampism we
have heard of occurred recently at
Jimmy King's,..west of the Station.
Recently some men called at Mr.. KS,
whose house is close to the track, and
were served with water. Taking a
freight train up some time after, the
men got off just above Kings, and
waited for freight down. When the
engine was opposite the door, the
sneaks entered an out of door cellar
just across the track, in plain view OF
Mrs. King, who was powerless to pre-
vent them, and carried off two or three
pies, q loaf of nice cake just baked,
and two cans of fruit.
A little four years old recently said
to his mother: Ma, I do like you
berry bad" ,hg
The place to get good, square, clean
meal in Ravenna, for small money, is
at the COMMERCIAL HOUSE, enlarged
and improved, and we'll kept by our
friend, Will. A. Horr. The proprietor
ought to pick In flesh ItfmSelf, on
such fare - heproviales fosAkpsatrons.
Why is the Democratic party like q
faithful policeman p Because it sticks
to its beat! "a
When calico and molasses win the
day against distinguished services and
ability in the preservation of our Un.
ion, it Is but another evidence that this
is q natiOal A nation bound together
by the enduring ties of calico. and ce-
meDted strongly with the strongest
mOlasses. For people with SO much
chaff in their eyes that they cannot
tell the taste of wheat in the mouth,
we shall ever be q MOURNER. :
