exhibited some fine specimens of Poland
China hogs, and that the Jersey cattle
of Thos. Johnson of Camden, attracted a
great deal of attention, as well as the
fine specimens OF Holstein cattle exhib-
tied by j. H. Ramsey and Smith & Gar
Der, of Preble county. Preble county
farmers are hard to beat Oh hogs, cattle
and sheep.
The town of New Paris has another
society sensation. Elder d. B. johnson,
who pounded the pulpit for the goody
good of the village in the Campbellite
congregation, eloped with en- old maid
from Palestine, O., on Sunday night last,
leaving a wife and two children in indi-
gent circumstances. All such masked
villains, when caught, should be neck
tied to the first convenient tree.

bacco merchants, shipped two weeks
ago ten car loads of leaf tobacco direct
to Bremen, Germany, on a through bill

our city. IL is but a few years ago when
only a few cases or boxes of tobacco were
purchased here, but the business is now
one OF the largest done in Eaton, and
could be easily extended as there is am-
pie room to do it.

to the right your body must move to the
left, and before your foot reaches the

the entire limb. 1t must be just too aw-
fully nice for anything, and no well reg
plated Eaton female can afford to be
without it.

The summer of 1856 is ended, and we
