GETTING RICH.
A Whole Bank Pull Of Onyx Pound Il
Adams County, o.


WNcuEsTER, o., Oct III, {.
Rhinehart, farmer living in jefferson
township, this county, the other day
picked up on his farm an odd-looking
stone, which he sent to Cincinnati to
have examined by experts. They pro-
nounced 1t to be onyx of the finest
variety, and expressed surprise that it
should be found in Adams county, or
even in North America, as the localities
where it abounds in this country are ex-
ceedingly rare.
The ridge from which the specimen
was obtained is fully thirty feet deep,
and apparently contains an inexhausti-
BILE quantity of the precious stone. Rhine
hart is preparing TO work his "find" for
all it is worth. and, should it hold out.
as it seems likely to do, he will without
doubt find himself in possession of al
most fabulous wealth.

witnessed the horrors of '98 and the
treachery Of SO many Of their public men
two years later, could never be formed
into compact, effective and harmoni-
Gus national organization. He resolved,
therefore, to abandon agitation tor q
time and devote himself to his profession.
This course afforded him two great ad-
vantages His fees, which were often
more numerous than he could we'll ac-
cept, secured his personal independence,
and the courts he found presented ad-
mirable scope for the indulgence OF hie
peculiar kind of rhetoric, and logic. A
courthouse in Ireland is always favor
ito place Of resort, but whenever it was
known that O'Connell, "the man Of the
people," was to be present, it would be
cfowded to suffocation. On such occa-
siens his addresses partoek as much OF
political harangues as Of law arguments,
and it was under snch circumstances
that he usually taught the rising genera
tion to stand up boldly for their rights
and the combine for mutual protection
and assistance.
SAbout twenty years were thus spent
by the great lawyer, and though his sue
cess at the bar was such that it was con-
eldered he might, for the asking, have
obtained any position on the Bench he
saw fit to select, he peither sought nor
desired promotion. He had an ulterior
object in view, higher and more holy
than mere aggrandizement. He felt
keenly the degradation OF his co~religion-
lists, and he resolved to elevate them to
the position, which none knew better
than he, they were entitled to hold, at
least in their own land. At length the
time arrived when agitation could be re-
sumed with moral probability of sue
cess. The country was aroused, such
mon as Shie] and Lawler,on tho rostrum,
and DR.. Doyle and the late Archbishop
MacHale of Tuam, through the press,
ably aided him. The struggle was short,
but vehement, the victory complete.
After nearly three hundred years Of Bit
Ter, unrelenting and unparalleled perse-
cution, the Irish Catholics were declared
as free as their afellownaen and the name
most praised throughout Christendom
for the good work was that Of Daniel
OConnell.
