PETIT LARCENY.-On Thursday last
Mr.. John Cummins and wife, of Sha-
lersviile, came to town to do little
trading, bringing along a pail of butter.
about Is pounds. They drove up and
hitched in front of Mechanics Block
and went about town on business.
Toward night they concluded to re-
turn home without disposing of their
product of the dairy. After reaching
home they discovered that the pail of
butter was missing. The next day
they returned to commenced a search
for the missing property and soon
tracedit to the possession ofa youngman
who claimed to hail from Bedford, who
had been about town trying to dispose
1.-THE same. A warrant was placed
in the hands of officer Barber and the
young man was arrested and taxed be-
fore Justice Sperra, where he asserted
his innocence of theft, claiming. that
he had purchased the butter of
stranger. Though his story was re-
garded as rather gauzy he was allowed
to compromise the matter and go at
liberty.

The Garrettsville correspondent of
the Ravenna Press should brush up in
matters musical before he tackles an
other entertainment as Esther. The
same advice will apply to Observer"
who writes for the Portage County
Republican. The last named chap
called Esther an oratorio," and
makes A A. Weeden manager, in
stead of w 5. Weeden. King Ahas-
urerus should forthwith issue royal
mandate, and have these bunglers
strung up higher than Haman."-
GarrettsvilIe Journal.
Is not the genius of the Journal .
little hypercritical? Chambers, in his
Cyclopedia, defines an Oratorio to be
1" kind of sacred musical composition
either purely dramatic or partaking
both of the drama or the epic, in
which the text is illustrative of some
religious subject, sometimes taken di-
rectIy from the Scriptures; and the
music consists of recitatives, airs duets,
trios, quartetts. choruses, accompanied
by All orchestra and introduced by an
instrumental overture" And has not
the Cantata of Esther substantially all
these characteristics?

Correspondence.
The death Of Aiiss Arvilla Gipson,
which occurred Monday, the 10th inst,
was one of the most sad and sorrowful
events that has occurred in this place
for q long time. She had been sick
with diphtheria, and had partly recov-
cred when she was taken with lung
fever, which was III very severe form
and which caused her death. She was
only nineteen years of age, and we
think there never occurred death in
this place that caused more sOrrOw-
full impression upon the committee
than did that of Arvilla Gipson- The
funeral occurred Wednesday, the 18th,
and was largely attended, Rev. Mr..
Edwards officiating. This is the acc
ond death that has occurred in Mr.
Gipson's family this winter, not to
speak of the severe sickness which
other members of the family have en-
durod. Mr.. Gjpson and his fsmily
have the sympathy of the entire com.
munity in their sad bereavement,
The talk concerning the Youngs-
town and Akron railroad is the gener-
al conversational topic in this place.
We understand parties have passed
through this place Surveying the route
and that it is in all probabilities . sure
thing that the road will be built.

begrudged the room he occupies, for If
his complimentaries were paying tick

Port Grape Vino for sickness.

Decidedly one ofthe incest and most
creditable of any article of wine we
have ever seen, is the wine bearing
the sbove name, made from the Portu-
gal Port Grape, cultivated by Mr.. AL
fred Speer, Pas.aic, n. j. This wine,
under the hand of Mr.. Epeer, has been
brought to a state of great perfection.
Il possesses the highest medicinal vir-
tues, and certainly as an article for
medical use it is not, In our judgment,
to be surpassed in color, taste, or any
of the qualities which constitute a
pure, mild and agreeable wine for the
sick.-[ Boston Transcript.
