a WELL attended meeting of farmers
and others interested in better highways,
was held at the office of Capt. Thomas
Garrett, in Bellaire on Tuesday, at which
Hon. VIM. Bundy, of Warren, presided.
The special object of the meeting seems
to have been the consideration of the
proposed road up Little McMahOn's
creek. The discussion took wide scope
and showed that scarcely two persons
held like views as to the best method to
be adopted for the betterment of our road
system. A hornets nest hangs close to
the statesman's head who proposes to in
terfere with the system now in vogue,
which operates to keep the farmer on his
own premises at least half the year.

A NEEDED IMPROVEMENT.

The ravine in the North Common, ad-
joining the Craft property, is being filled
with the dirt eXcavated at the court
house. a fair grade is already made,
which is being widened, and, with the
dirt yet to be removed at the court house,
and grading that ought to be done east
of the railroad street, good street may
be opened up on the north side. The
Street Commissioner thinks the latter
grading may be done next summer.
If this work is done as completely as it
ought to be. dozen or more desirable
building sites may be put upon the mark
et on either side of the railroad street.
This is one of the needs of st. ClairS-
vile, and very great and pressing one,

SUPT. MCMILLEN, of the Columbus

charged with burning grain stack, and
who was adjudged insane by a jury in

crowded condition of the institution is
given as reason for the refusal to ad-

from the unfavOrable nature of the his

RECENTLY quite a number of our pa
irons have sought an opportunity to set
tie their subscription and advertising ac-
counts. All such have our thanks. The
same chance is still open for others, and
there is little if any reason why it should
not be taken advantage Of by hundreds of
our subscribers. Just before the open
ing of the present year we were visited
with dire calamity, but with the future
before us, we met the hardships it entail
ed. without faltering. How well we have
succeeded in bearing the burdens it i'm
posed, our readers are left to judge. Suf-
flee it to say it has cost us time and
means. What we ask now of those who
have been reading and enjoying the paper
for the past year or years, is to PAY for
