The highly exciting, novel and attractive
Roman Chariot races may be seen each day
of the Fair at New London, Ohio, next week.
Prof. Mcdonald will drive four white, and
his wife four black horses, harnessed abreast
| to two-wheeled Roman Chariots. Both drivers
will be dressed in the curious costumes OF
ancient charioteers. The horses are splendid
blooded race stock, evenly matched, and
driven under the whip at their utmost speed.
BY reason of absence from home when the
| transfer was made, we failed to mention the
sale of the Wellington Planning Mill, and
Sash and Blind Factory by d. L. Wadsworth
| to N H Huckins and Co. Mr.. Wadsworth
has been connected with the mill for several
years, until the work began to tell on his
health and for this reason and other business
enterprise with which he is engaged he de-
cided to sell. N. Huckins and Co. had some
months ago sold their building and grounds
used for the manufacture of butter tubs and
cheese boxes to the w. and L. Z. r r. Co.
and had purchased the brick-yard of G. ".
Hemenway, on which they expected to erect
q brick building for their business. The pur-
chase of Mr. Wadsworth's property obviates
the necessity. Their machinery will be trans
fered and run in connection with the planning
mill.

It is provoking to have housed an
umbrella through all the vicissitudes
OF q summers drought, and then
Just when the skies have fallen into q
state Of chronic depression, and weep at the
slightest provocation, find that some thrifty
soul who regardeth the clouds and provideth
shelter that costs him nothing, has made off
with your largest and best family parasol.
On Saturday night last, the first passenger
coaches for the new railroad. arrived here.
entirely for passengers, and two were CEN
nected with baggage apartment. Several
more coaches are en- route. We are inform
ed that the Orville Agricultural Society
bought the use Of the road for this, their Fair
week, and run free trains during the contin-
uance Of the Fair.
When you sell all your own fowls to be rid
Of their presence in your yard and grounds
1t is no sign that you are to have freedom.
Your neighbors busy scratchers will come
oyer and possess the land Just the same as
though you had an interest in the eggs and
spring chickens. You manure and mulch
your choice trees and things at great expense,
and these foreign invaders fall to before
breakfast and dig and scratch as though
there was hidden treasure wherever you
have any interest In wishing them to let the
ground alone. II an apple drops they are on
hand to sample 1t, and as to walks there is
no such thing as neatness or order where
these visitors perpetually abound.
Now and then o customer wants to get
everything he buys for less than the merchant
pays for 1t, and deals with every one as though
they would cheat him IL not watched, and he
must beat them down and treat them like
thieves and robbers through every step Of his
business transaction. II man Is himself
honest he ought also to know that there are
multitudes OF people In the world, who care
more for their own integrity than they do for
his peuniesi and that even merchants, who
buy and sell goods for living, have quite as
much claim to be trusted, as Yirtuous and
conscientious, as one who raises and sells
vegetables and fruit; and it only shows how
little he knows Of human nature, and Of the
business world, when he is so afraid to trust
another's honesty or take the word Of repu-
table dealer as a guarantee for the genuiness
of what he is selling.
The "angel with uplifted wings was
placed on the pinnacle of the pavilion In
the park at Cleveland Monday. 1t was put
up in sections, aud was somewhat of a peril
GUS undertaking; and though people were
warned of the danger of standing about, there
was an interested aud sober crowd constantly
pressing forward to gaze upon the sacred
spectacle associated with the Nations dead.
People continue to come from long distances
to see these things before they are removed.
Many telegraph for carriage and guide to
convey them to. the places Of interest, the
Park, and TO Lake View Cemetery, siEce the
funeral of the President, and his remains
being placed there. The growing plants, and
the floral devices are still in and about the
Pavilion in great profusion, and men, women
and children from all parts Of the country
view them with reYerent awe.
1t may seem like unaccountable negligence
the address OF the EsTERPRIsE for one Of our
subscribers 1t runs along for a week or two
without the change being made. But 1t does
not follow that the one to whom the order is
given has not done his or her errand. The
address is in type in galleYs, of which there
are numbers, and run by soulless mailing
machine. The order may have been given
after the msil-list has been corrected for the
week, in which case there may not be time
to hunt out the name and make the correc-
ton before mailing; and the pressure Of work
at that time Is always the excuse for not
changing it "by hand" before the township
packages are made up or the single wrapper
list sent off. The remedy for resident SUBJ
scribers who fail to get a paper by Thursday
is to come to the Office and be given q paper.
