MARRIED.-On Wednesday last, Jas. H. Leigh
ton, superintendent Of the Flint Glass House
and Aida X. Burr, Of Iowa City, Ia, were mar.
ried by Rev. Mr.. Arnold, at the residence of Mrs
HcKeel, on the Ridge. The wedding was
quiet one, and the company of witnesses no,
large. Those present were Mr.. and Mrs. W. "A
Hull, Mr.. and Mrs. c. D. Trimble, Mr.. and Mrs
j. r. Cameron, Mr.. and Mrs. Crosson, and hall
a dozen other friends of Mr.. Leighton. After the
ceremony and congratulations the company sat
down to a most elegant dinner prepared by Mrs
hcKeel and Mr.. Walther Altogether a most
pleasant two hours were enjoyed by all. The
FREE TRADER tenders its hearty con ratulations.
Mr.. L. has been too busy since his coming to OF.
tawa to make large circle of acquaintance,
though he is a most genial and intelligent gen
ueman whose acquaintance is pleasure to all
who have enjoyed it. His bride, very pleasant
lady indeed, comes from one of t first families
OF Iowa City, and we welcome her TO Ottawa-as
will undoubtedly the people of Ottawa when Mr..
Leighton has finished the heavier part Of his
work here and secured leisure for becoming &C.
quainted with Ottawa people.

GLASS.

Ameraua Nanufaetu,er, Aug. Bth; THE de.
msnd for window glass is only moderate, manu-
acturers say, but they expect 1t TO be better very
soon Building operations have been retarded
considerably by the scarcity Of material, and it
Is thought this has delayed the fall demand for
window glass. The demand for fruit jars was
good In July, but since then has been slack. The
berry and fruit crops are very light this season,
and this will injure the fruit jar trade.-The
manufacturers OF pressed glassware are receiv-
ing an unusual number of orders.-Thc New
England Glass Burial Case company's capital, at
Thompsonville Conn, is SIS, 900, and theirfscto.
ry will be ready for business in about five weeks.
The plate. glass plant which is being erected
at Hite's Station, few miles from this city, b.
Mr.. Ford, Of Albany, Ind, will be ready for bust
ness by January l. There is no good reason why
this country should not stand at the head of
the plate. glass industry, the sand here being bet.
ter than in France, England or Germany. On
this subject Mr.. Ford says: TO their or per
cent. Of impurities we can contrast our Berk-
shire (Mass.) sand which has but twenty two
hundredths of / per cent. Of impurities, aud
now there has been deposit OF sand.rock found
near Pittsburgh, in Hancock county, West Vir-
ginia, that shows but one tenth Of per cent. i'm

sand is not less than 80 or 40 miles from Pitts
burg Ottawa sand is about one mile from the
present factories, and sites are offered for fac TO-.
rlcs with raj read and canal accommodations At

tawa has her two railroads and canal, but has no
competition between the railroads, and would
have none between the railroad and canal were

his depth for we have the liveliest kind of COM

Some Duties

Love thy home and make il pleasant
And thy nearest duty do,
Sow the seeds of kindness freely,
To thysclf and all be true.
Love Thy parents, kind and tender,
Who thy youthful steps have led;
Honor, aid and comfort truly,
as yon wish when they arc dead.
Love thy brother and thy sister,
Take them gently by the hand,
Help them up lifes rugged pathway,
BE loving union band;
Give each other smiles as pleasant
As the suns ascending ray,
Changing sorrow into gladness,
And the darkness into day.
Spread the light of truth around you
Truth, rich, a prircely dover;
Lifting, purifying manhood
As with some mysterious power.
Love thy neighbor, FOR It's better
That good VIII and peace prevail;
lis in keeping with Gods teaching
And his word shall never fail.
Love is real, love is earnest.
Life has quite enough Of strife;
BE true and loving husband,
Or faithful, loving wife.

Rights Of Land Owners 20 the Road
In response 10 inquiries as TO the
rights of land owners to the road. we
give the following from Judge Ben
netts law upon the subject: III a
farm decd Is bounded by, ON. or up
on road, it usually extends to the
middle of the roadway. There are
Few exceptional cases but ordinarily
the farmer owns the soil OF halt of the
road, and may use the grass, trees.
stones, gravel, sand, or anything of
value TO him, either on the land or
beneath the surface, subject only TO
the superior rights OF the public TO
travel over the road, and that of the
highway surveyor or other similar
officer to use such materials for the
repair OF the road and these materi-
ais he may cart away and use else,
where on the road, yet he has no right
to use them for his own private pnr-
poses. No other man has right TO
feed his cattle there, or cut the grass
or trees; much less to deposit his
wood, old carts, wagons orother things
thereon. The owner of drove of
cattle which stops to feed in front of
your land, or OF drove Of pigs which
root up the soil, is responsible to you
at law as much as if they did the same
things inside the fence. No one has
legal right to pick up the apples un-
der the trees, although the same stand
wholly outside the fence. No travel !
er can hitch his horse to your trees on
the sidewalk without being liable if
he gnaws the bark o: otherwise iniures |
them. You may unite the horse and
remove him to some safe place. III
your well stands partly on your land |
and partly outside the fence, no neigh. |
Dor can use it, except by your permits
sion. No man has right to stand in
front of Your land and whttle or de- |
face your fence, throw stones at your |
dog, or insult you with abusive Ian
guage without being liable to You for
trespassing ON your land. He has a
right to pass in an orderly and be-
coming manuer-a right to use the
road but not to abuse it,
