At a recent meeting of the stockholders of the Cleveland and Mahoning Railway Company a resolution was adopted look ing towards forfeiture of the lease with the Atlantic and Great Western Ruilwav wiuuw. ine tauer is in arrears ior rental, on account of the unfortunate dition of its finances, and as the lease re- ierrea to is very valuable property, oro- ceedings were commenced before Judge McClure, at chambers yes- veruay, wuere au mi unction was applied for and granted restraining the saiu Cleveland and Mahonine Yal evR way Company from forfeiting or attempt ing 10 iorieit said lease. There was an unusual activi'y at the Court-house this morning by reason of these proceedings, and a prominent attorney left by special locomotive to Ravenna, to meet the train for Cleveland, where important, consulta tions were to be held this afternoon. "WHEW!" Hw the ''Cold Wave" Struck ti -fttld Wentti- er aad So Mistake. he most attentive and appreciative audiences yesterday were those that gath ered around and consulted the thermom elers.

These mercurial public educators took tor their morning texts the sugges tive theme of "Sixteen Bjlow," and the sermons which they preached were, in pulpit parlance, deeply impressive and soundly searching, that It was cold, no one with a projecting proboscis or elon gated auricu'ar appendages had the forti tude- to deny. Few ventured into the open air, and depleted congregations were the rule rather than the exception As is apt to be the case wit public ed ucators, the sermons which the weather. indicators preached varied considerably as to the exact data. Of the (probably) five hundred patri familitu that shivering- ly couieuipiaieu their thermometers yes terday morning probably one hundred agreed as to the precise notch at which the mercury registered: the remainder varied all the way from elev en to twenty-five. How ard street reports eleven at sunrise Wooster avenue, sixteen; Sixth Ward, eighteen; West Market street, twenty; Fir street, twenty nve; and so on.

We have not as yet interviewed the "Oldest Inhabitant, but venture to locate the av erage at about sixteen. Below are given the observations taken by a reliable resi dent on Wooster avenue from Saturday to Monday morning: Saturday, all day 5 degrees below, 9 p. Sunday, sunrise 9 P. Ii Monday, sunrise IU At Cleveland the mercury raneed as tollows: At nail-past seven o'clock it stood seven degrees below; at two in the alter- nonn eight degrees; at seventeen minutes past four, ten degrees, at nine in the even ing, thirteen degrees; at forty-two minutes past ten, Saturday night, thirteen degrees; seven, Sunday morning.it was eleven degrees and live-tenths, and thus it re mained until seventeen minutes after sev en, when It commenced to go up, owing the influence ot a bright sou, and at twelve o'clock yesterday it was only ten decrees below zero. Now that we have lived through it all, possibly it may ba interesting as well as instructive, to ascertain, like the Irish man, "what sthrnck us." This is the way the Cleveland carter graphically de scribes it: The active and energetic signal officers who are responsible tor all the eccentric ities of the weather are authority for the statement tbat the cold wave arose away in Wyoming Territory on Friday night and came sweeping down to the southeast with a swinging gait, snapping whips over the rivers and congealing them to sheets of ice, waving a wand over lakes here and ponds there until all were locked in an icy armor, sending the mercury in the tube with breakneck speed toward the bottom, striking terror the hearts ot the poor in city and coun try, and sending death to those unfort unates who were left shelterless and in its power.

At seven minutes after seven o'clock it struck Cleveland and sent the thermometer down to zero at the first shot. Becent Cosiness Changes In Ntirihern (Kilo. Fron the Cleveland Commo-cial Review. Cleveland Shipherd fc Barnes, fancy goods, assigned. W.S.

Front Nebraska Return of Mrs, Josselyn. Mrs. E. A Josselyn returnee from Fill more County, Nebraska, on Friday last intends remaining here for a time at least. She recites the same old story of destitution and want, and takes exceptions to a letter written from Nebraska, Mr.

Del 8 Bosworth, ot Copley, who paid a visit there a short time ago. Re garding Mr. statement that there was abundance of wheat in Fillmore County, Mrs. Josselyn is authorized by the President ot the local aid society to say, that the average amount of wheat is fifteen bushels to the man, and, in a great many cases, this has to be sold to secure funds for the payment of taxes. Some families are entirely destitute, as far as their own means are concerned, and are dependant upon the assistance of others.

Notwithstanding all this tbe people are hopeful cultivate a spirit of cheerfulness in their sulferings. The settlers are mostly from this section are generally sober, in- dustrious, and if it had not been for the unfortunate raid ot the grasshoppers, would now be enjoying the first truits of their toils and privations. Mrs. Josselyn is authorized by the Fres identand Secretary of the Fillmore County, (Nebraska) Aid Society, to receive all donations which may be offered by our citizens. Coming so recently from the scene of devastation she can give informa that is, indeed, heart-rending, and-we trust, she will be heartily seconded in efforts for the ili-f ited people of the far West.

She has brought from Nebraska a queer specimen of the "Jack rabbit," a quadru peculiar to and numerous in Nebraska. It measures over two feet from nose tail, and is quite a curiosity in other respects. Heetlng uf the Ohio Board Centennial Man agers. The Columbus Dispatch says tbat Judge R. P.

We do not ofien men tion specially any man's bussnes-s in our reports, but until some five years ago the masculine inhabitants of Middlebury could never, with certainty, calculate on a "clean shave," unless they scraped their countenances at walked to the city to nave it done, naroer shops there were sometimes and sometimes not. About that time, however, Mr. John Yeoman started here an establishment devoted to the art tonsorial, and by close attention to business soon received encouragement enough to make the business permanent.

Comment on such conduct is no more necessary than it would be beneficial to those engaged in it, not one per cent, of whom, we will war rant, ever read the papers.

The Tranipv- As an instance of the de pravity ot "iramp" human nature, Mr. lluse, living on liroad street, tells us that a few days ago two men of the genus mentioned call at his house and represented them selves to be in "a starving condition," "no work to be had," tfcc the old, old story, with which our citizens are already familiar. There being no "cold-bake! meats" In the house, Mrs. in the kindness of her about the preparation food for them. Before, however, the meal was ready a neighbor eame, and calling Mr.

Whei Mr. Huse informed them ot the tacts he had learned they swore it to be a lie, and left with curses on their lips. But a tew uays previous to this, two men were, at the same house, given a line lunch of sweet light bread and cold beef, and soon as they turnea tne corner of the house, out of sight as tbey thought, the bread and meat were dashed into the gutter, with imprecations, and the poor starving fellows dragged their weak and weary limbs to the next house, with a story of intense suffering upon their lips.

SPRINGFIELD. Election The Sabbath Qoollon Missionary Anniversary Ae. Corrof pondence of Tub Beacojt.J Springfii.d, January 1875. Last bbath was a busy day in North Springfield for church-goers.

At ten o'clock the Sabbath-school met and, at the close of the class exercises.was an election officers for the ensuing year, with the following result: William Hilbish Supcrin tendent; Mrs. John Ewart, Assistant Superintendent j'Harvey Schrop, Secretary; F. Yerrick, Librarian; J. M. Schrop, Treasurer; Miss Angie Hilbish, Organist; Harvey Schrop, Assistant Organist; W.

Schrop, Chorister. The school is alive aad interesting, and supplied with working officers and teachers. The library consists of nearly five hundred volumes; but the modern appliances for object teaching are meagre and need be supplied. The schoil use the Westminster Lfssons upon the International Series, prepared by J. Bennet Tyler, and published by the Presbyterian Board of Publication.

At half past eleven Rev. Carlos Smith delivered an excellent discourse on the Sabbath question, before a large and appreciative audience. The speaker proceeded to prove by a legitimate course of reisoning, that the Sabbath is an universal and perpetual institution; that when God had finished the creation, he set apart the seventh day and blessed and rested from all his work. The truth ot these premises he fully established in the mind of every candid hearer. Mr.

Smith is serving the church as a stated supply, to the entire acceptance of the congregation. In the evening at six o'clock, the monthly meeting ot the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society was held, at which Mrs. John Kwart, the President of the Society, presided. Among the numerons items of interest presented at the meeting was the reading, by Mrs Eliza Boyd, of a letter writted by the Rev. J.

M. Shaw, who wilh his bride recently left tbeirhomeat Wind ham, Portage Countv, to devote their lives to missionary labors in China. The letter was dated Shanghai, China, Septem ber IU. 1874. At seven o'clock Rev.

Ghapin, of Lane Seminary, preached a very able ser mon, subject: "The Humanity of Christ." Mr. Uhapin is a young man or nne abili ties, and a good sermonizer. During his stay of three months here last summor he made a host of triends, who were all glad to see and hear him again. of at the ed in a on of the out did ing of of to ent the old to of A Tour ef the City Yesterday A Few the Many Erldeoers Local Patertr and Wretch edsess a Reqaest which Sheald be Beeded, That there is great destitution prevail ing among the poor of the city there can not be the least doubt. We have nu ruerous aid socilies that are doing a good work in relieving pressing demand especially in furnishing food and clothing to many, many suffering little ones, who, in the midst of the cold and hunger, wonder with a child like simplicity, wliv their lives should be cast so unpleasantly and unfortunately.

Una Beacon has re ferred to this subject frequently of late, not tor the purpose ot raising an unnecessary hue and cry over an existing state ot cir cumstances, but simply to bring the mat ter home to a large number, who, in the midst of plenty thoughtlessly forget the miseries and privations of the victims of adversity. At the suggestion of a number ot mem. bers of two or three of our different relief societies, a representative of this paper made a tour ot the city yesterday, bume half a dozen families were called upon. and what m'very, wretchedness, destitu tion, and suQering was there unfolded. Heads of families, able bridled, and aax ious for work, are unwilling eye-witnesses to the intense suffering of their own flesh and blood.

One honest-hearted man said that he had been without work for two months; he had a wife and three children to care for; for the rent of two miserable rooms he was paying' tour dollars per month. It took every cent to purchase the actual necessaries for his household With a hard winter before him he was at a loss to know what to do, At one house, occupied by a German family, there were four persons in very indigent cirenmstances. The father was blind, and a little girl, about ten years old, was deaf and dumb. The ladies of the aid societies have taken ereat interest in this unfortunate little creature, and are making the necessary arrangements to send her to the State Deaf and Dumb Institute. These people were actually snilering for the want of food, saying nothing regarding their need ot clothing and tut-1.

At another place were man, wife and two children, the latter bare footed, and their clothing was so scanty that it was indeed a mystery, with the extreme cold ol yesterday, how their suttering, could be endured. The woman was engaged at the washtub, the room, hardly ht to be occu pied by a human being, was choked with steam from the drying clothes. A few questions elicited the same old story ol want ana misery. In the same building, but in an adjoin ing room, were quartered an unfortunate woman, with four children, the youngest babe ot six months. The husband had gone to loungstown inquest ot work his poor woman and children were cold and tarnishing.

1 he babe was asleep in crib, and the mother symptbetlcally re marked, "Thank God, when he is sleep ing, he is out ot his misery." Two bright little boys, in spite of their wretchedness, were smiling and happy, and were ex tremely delighted when the good ladies brought into the room a quantity ot prov ender ana clothing. At another place were found a bevy ot bright and intelligent children, the mother being very disconsolate over their wretched condition as to clothing and other wants. She had kept her impoverished condition from the ladies of the aid societies, but the driving cold and cries tor bread from the children, had compelled her to do away with a natural pride, and ask for the necessary assistance. She had improvis clo'h shoes for the children, but these had given away with wear and tear. The o'dest boy, about six years old, was ex tremely anxious tor a pair ot shoes, so that he could attend school.

When he was told that he would realize bia expect ations in a few days, he fairly pranced and lanebed with joy. We could go on with the list, but it would be simply reciting the same tale of poverty and extreme want. There are al- ways some cases where the charitable are imposed upon, but such is the system and faithful inquiry with which the different societies pursue their good work that none but the deserving are cared for and assisted. The county furnishes tuel for great many of these families, and Mr. iv lownsend, of the infirmary a ard, faithful and persistent in the distribution of the same.

There are numbers of generous hearted people, not connected with these aid soci eties, who would like lo do their part, however slight, in aid of these poor peo To such we would say; declare vour inteitions, and you will be called upon. Cnst off clothing and contributions of all kinds will be gladly received, lour re ward will be in the knowledge that you have done your part in aid of distressed fellow beings. G. A. R.

They also propose, ins'ead of the regular monthly receptions, to give six grand con certs during the year, iutroducing at each very best talent ol the club, and be stowing great care on their prep ira- tion: their obj-ct beinir to keep their fiatterine reputation and to elevate the standard of music in our city. the close ot last year the club lotind themselves in debt, and instead of com plaining about their lack of patronage. they have adopted anew and economic tl course for next year hoping to free them selves from their financial embarassment make the institution self-supporting.

H. Wetmore, la Cuyahoga Falls Reporter. In the Historical Atlas of Summit County recently issued, it is stated, in the history of the several townships, th tt Cop ley had the honor of organizing and presenting on the 29th of January, 1829, the first temperance society in the Slate of Ohio. This is a mistake; Cuyahoga Falls rightfully claims that next the town of Stow, both before Copley. The first temperance society in the State oi Ohio was organized in the spring of 1828, Cuyahoga Falls, by Dr.

Wilcox, then a school teacher, and myself; seven persons only could be induced to sign the pledge besides ourselves. it stood without further increase until December of the same year, when Joshua Stow came out from Middlestown, Connecticut, and en couraged the little society thus formed ani proposed calling a meeting of all the citizens of Stow township to meet with this society at Stow Corners. A meeting was appointed and an unexpected revival took Dlace. Sixty-five persons came for ward and signed the pledge in aaauion to nine from the Falls. A new constitu tion was formed, and the two socities unit The society continued to increase iu numbers and influence until by their ex ample and precept they caused four dis tilleries to discontinue their business.

Many interesting in cidents could be narrated ot the dithcul ties in establishing the first society at ihe Fails, the discouraging circumstances, of those peculiar tun- when it was custo mary for merchants to keep whisky on their counters for their customers to drink, and all workmen, and especially mill wrights, were accustomed to have their bottles replentsaed daily, The firm of Stow te Wetmore then em ployed thirty workmen building their mills, all of whom used from one pint to ouart each day of whisky.

1 he work men struck not for higher wages, but for continuance ot their whisKy. it was refused, and they all left; after a time a part only returned. Then in raising their Paper Mill the firm were obliged to call the Church of Tallmadge, and a large body ot the male members headed by their Minister came over and worked one day with a will. Before night, the advocates whisky Called on the firm and informed them that they need not take trouble to ask any further favors of Tallmadge Church; that they would turn and finish raisine the building. They so.

and the firm conquered. But it was accomplished with many difficulties and embarrassments. Hence Cuyahoga Falls is entitled to the Jionor of establish the first temperance society in the State of The ball set in motion at this place was so'm after repeated in Cop ley, Hudson and other adjoining towns Questions for the fnrlom. The Cincinnati papers are just now en gaged in a little discussion which, involving as it does several questions of a novel and interesting nature, may be the source some amusement and study on the part curiosity-seekers in our own midst. The Commercial having, in its New Year's editorial, referred to the fact that with the commenc -ment of 1875 was also com- mced the last quarter of the ceuturv, a respondent, "Knight," ctlls the editor account with tne correction mat we shall not have reached oiy- last quarter until January, 1876.

Not in the least -dismayed by this ava lanche of conundrums, "Knight" "talks back" as follows: The editor of the Commercial is invited divide an apple, a pumpkin, or any other entity he may prefer, into 100 parts, and having appropriated the first seventy. hve of them, to report whethei JNo. lo is found in the lot.

From the Toledo Blude. The oldest inhabitant was sitting by a red hot stove this morning, so close to it that his veuerable old shins must have been toasted black long ago. As people would come dancing the room all bundled up and shouting out: ain't this a bliglerer. Who's seen a thermometer?" The old man's eyes would fill up, and his nether lip would quiver. Dirsclly, he said this ain't nothing to be bellowing around about I never in my life saw such tender skinned creatures as the young men of this day are.
