The Cincinnati Commercial wonders
why the names upon the Pension

ton in the newspapers, and thinks it
would have good effect to publish
them. So do we. If the names Of
the pensioners were published, we are
Of opinion that many who are drawing

reside.
Let us give, as a specimen case. an
application now being made for pen
sion. The writer Of this served in
Capt. Barton's Sharp-shooters during
the war. While in Portsmouth few
days ago, the Capt. informed US that a
man well known to us had applied to
him for assistance in procuring a pen
sion, for injuries received by a cannon
recoiling and striking him in the hip,
at the battle Of Nashville. On that
day we were at the headquarters of
"Old Pap Thomas" the nearest cannon
being at Fort Negley, and if this man
was struck by cannon, the gun must
haye recoiled at least EIGHTEEN HUN

worse than hundreds now on the rolls.

To the Editors of the Standard:
As a subscriber to your paper, I
must tell you something about Colo
rado, and it's crops. Crops are good
generally. The principal products
are potatoes, cabbages, hay, &c. 1t is
a good country for cattle, and other
stock. It is the greatest country in
the world for minerals, the principal
ones being coal, gold, silver, lead and
copper. The mountains are a good
place for health. We get the cool
breezes here from the mountains all
summer, and it is quite pleasant. l
have been in this country quite a
while, and l like it real well.
Wages are good out here. Men get
from $1.50 to $500 per day--common
laborers $1.50, and stone masons $500.
Girls wages from 500 to $40 per
month. Girls who do cooking get
$40, and we cannot get any kind of a
girl for less than 500 per month.
There is good deal of money made
raising cattle and sheep, the range is
so good: There is good deal of rain,
but it makes the range good.

Random Thoughts.
BY D. MACKLEY.

Some things I know, and great
many things l know 1 do not know.
One of the things that know some
thing about, is the topography Of some
portions Of Jackson county. I have
lived in the county oyer go years, and
large portion Of that time I have
spent passing and re-passing over the
county, and l have been close OBJ
server, and topography and geology
have been two Of my. hobbies.
About forty-five years ago was
cutting cord wood at Jackson Furnace,
and l frequently passed the place
where Monroe Furnace was built, in
the year 1854. pointed out the ex-
act spot where the Furnace now
stands, as the finest location for fur
mace that [ had ever seen. There was
also any amount of ore and timber,
but it was so far from the Ohio River,
that no one supposed a furnace would
ever be built there; but the railroad
came in 1852, and the furnace in 1854.
Thirty-five years ago a charter was
granted for the Scioto and Hooking
Valley Railroad, to run up the Scioto
Valley. Then there was scheme to
turn the road up through the mineral
region of Jackson and Vinton coun-
ties, but the movers in the matter
were not acquainted with the topogra-
ply of the county. They saw on the
map that they could come up Hale's
Greek, but how to cross from that
creek to the Black Fork Of Symmes
Creek was the question. Prof. W. w.
Mather asked me about it, and l
pointed out to him the very low gap
between the head Of Hale's Creek and
the head Of the Flat Hollow, the very
route adopted, and where the railroad
has been in operation for thirty years.
Some years ago party of survey
ors and engineers were surveying
route for a railroad from Ironton to
Columbus. When they reached the

BY DEACON SLASHER.
Come Martha DEAR while from the hills the shining
brooklet springs,
And in the tall nodding pine the red birds music
rings.
While overhead the sky is blue and bright the sun
beams fall,
And sharply from the tangled hedge the cat
bird call
Come, let us wander forth to-day and breathe the
bamy air,
And view the smile on Natures face, that blooms
sweetly fair,
And while we wander, let us learn, from bird, and
tree, and brook,
long-enduring lesson, from Natures open book.
I've thought, dear Marth., down the stream my
bark has 1oated on
While far behind 1 see the night, before see the
dawn,
That everything in Natures plan-each flower, and
stream, and bird,
Each song among the forest trees, so Oft sweety
heard,
Is but the picture, magnifed, every human life
Where grief gives way to pleasure and JOY gives
to strife,
Where cloud and sunshine alternate, and rapture
smothers pain,
And hearts that bow in anguish soon are filed with
joy again.
How strangely intermingled, rush, the stream
along,
Are the walls of crushing sorrow and the notes of
happy song!
We may praise the sun at morning, and bless his
presence bright.
Yet may clouds of gloomy darkness hang on our way
by night.
How like the running brooklet, in youth dash
and play,
And gather in the tender flowers that bloom along
our way!
Our hearts filed with songs of birds, but
beauty's beam,
And singing to the edying waves we dance along the
stream
But soon too soon, will gathring floods disturb the
ripping tide,
And then lives be borne along in torrents deer
and wide;
Yet, while ride the sun-lit waves, plunge the
| rapid fall,

Though the waters dash about us, and dreadful bill
And our ral vessels ride the waves or dash against

If we but trust the mariner, and watch his beaute-

Dear Marth., this biowy, roaring sea, which bear

Will heave and murmur just the same when you AM
are gone;
These rolling waves which the sun his light AM

| roaring sea,
Mid all the rush and turmoil there's work for yo
and me.

and willing hands,
And leave to those who follow us a wealth of golde

The toughest sea is smooth enough If but our heart
are right,
And we keep our eyes fixed steadily upon the sacre
light.
What though the drift-wood strike us, and danger
GUS reefs appear?
That light will shine above them all, and make on
pathway clear.
Though Deaths cold damp may dim our light, an
shut us from the land,

injunction case Of W. HI. Monahan VS.
the Commissioners of Jackson Coun-
ty, and E. w. Mitchell and W. w.
Mccoy, contractors. The Judge gave
his decision at nine o'clock on
Wednesday morning, occupying an
hour and half. It was most ex-
ceedingly able, well prepared decision,
every point raised being taken up sep
arately, and discussed in the most log
ical manner.
We give synopsis Of the principal
points in the case:
The Statute requires notice Of in
tention to build Jail to be published
four weeks. This was done in Febru-
ary, according to law. The Commits
sioners had plans and specifications
and estimates made, and the estimates
fixed the cost at $4,000. These plans
and estimates were submitted to a
Board, composed Of the County Com
missioners, Auditor, Sheriff. Probate
Judge and Judge Longbon, appointed
by the Court of Common Pleas. This
Board approved the specifications and
estimates, according to the Statutes.
The Commissioners then proceeded
according to law to advertise for pro-
posals to take the contract for build
ing the jail, and when the time arrived
to open the bids, it was found that the
lowest bid was $4,000, while the
estimate was only $4,000, and the
bids had to be rejected. Then the
Commissioners had estimates made for
jail and Sheriff's residence, which
only amounted to $4,000, or $1,000
more than the bids for the jail alone,
under the former notice. They then
advertised for contracts, and the pres
ent contracts were awarded. The OBJ
lection raised was, that no notice Of
intention to bnild a jail and residence
had been published, the only notice of
intention being that published in Feb
ruary, and that only gave notice Of
intention to build jail. The Judge
held that the word ''jail" included a
jailer's residence, as he must be there
all the time, day and night. All over
the State the Sheriff, or jailer, had a
residence provided, and it was the case
with the present jail, in this county.
