The people of the Buckeye State

The people Of the Buckeye State
Are not at ali blind with local pride
And there are those who know how great
The crime about whiIh Garfield lied.
And they have raised Hancock pole,
And on its top a rooster set,
At Gartield's home. This cheers the soul
There's hope for old Ohio, yet
TO whate'er party one belongs
The honest heart can not oer!ook
A life all stained with shameless wrongs
Buckeyes will help to bring to book
The man who boldly taunts his shame,
And whom the biggest rogueB abet
a True men abhor Jim Garfield name
There's hope for old Ohio, yet
What sayest thou, Deacon Richard smith
WHAT dost thou think, 0 Sherman bold
Are Garfeld's errors bat myth.
Or is it awful truth that's told
Behold your fair States periured son,
And ace the tide against him set,
And how he hath himself undore

General Trade.

Business for the past three days
has been greatly impeded by heavy
snow and freeze, and the closing ofthe
river by ice below St. Louis causes
some articles to be excited. Sales of
meal we're made yesterday all the way
from 81 1902 65 per barrel, and the
demand was urgent with none in first
hands. The sugar crop has been
greatly damaged by the freeze which
swept over Louisiana last night and
the night before. 1t is now about
half gathered, perhaps a little more,
and the cane still in the folds will be
likely to supply us with a big stock Of
dark colored molasses. Our poultry
market has been overstocked for sew
eral days and sales are slow at any
price, all classes being abundant anc
eheap.with many in poor order. Egg
are scarce, and sold yesterday all the
