A raid was made upon the cellars of
the farmers living along the head
waters of Bull creek, in Clinton town
ship, last week. The thief took a big
supply of canned fruit, pork, bread and
butter, eggs, jellies, cream, &c, and to
ease his guilty conscience took good
stock of tobacco from Mr.. Mahaffey,
and a tino horse blanket to cover up and
hide from view his stolen plunder or
his shame, and after diving into ten
cellars in his route disappeared as mys-
teriously as he came He surely had q
full load of all the delicacies the most
fastidious epicure could desire The
dogs all seem to have been hypnotized
as there was none to molest or make
him afraid.

WE think we have some politics in
PENNSYLVANIA, but ours is small dose
compared to what the people of Ohio
are getting.
The reason is IN our tremendous Re
publican majority, while Ohio is liable
to 90 either way, and the returns from
that State will probably be scrutinized
by the Nation closer than those of any
other state in the Union. Judge Nash
is the Republican candidate for Govern
or, and John r. Mclean the Democrat
ic: while Mayor Jones of Toledo heads
an independent ticket.
The canvass has been conducted on
National issues, and the result will
have an influence on the National nom
nations, next year.
Next after Ohio the most interesting
| fight is in Kentucky where the Demo
Gratis are trying to G eft rid of their state
boss, Pennsylvania dutchman named
Goebel, who has been ruling their par
| ty with rod of iron.
