LOCAL NOTICES. LOCAL NOTICES. Public Attention! Is called to the fact that Mr. Lazarus has been for some time past largely engaged in the manufacture of Clothing, for both Wholesale and Retail trade a new enterprise in Hillsboro, for which Mr. Lazarus deserves the patronage and credit of the public, and which further enables him and gives him the leadership in the Clothing trade in this part of the State He says he got tired of paying the manufactories in the city their profit, and making the consumers pay two profits.

He alone has done away with one profit. The Clothing Manufacture has also given Mr. Lazarus the opportunity of establishing large Wholesale as well as Retail trade, and he is now engaged in both branches. Labor and expense being less here than in cities, he can compete with any Wholesale or Retail business in his line in the State. He claims now to be able to save the publio from 10 to 25 per cent, in the sale of goods in his line.

His stock now on hand cannot be excelled in any manner. He occupies up stairs for Wholesaling and the lower Room for his Retail trade, both of which are filled with choice goods.

The voters of Liberty Tp. are hereby notified, that under a law passed by the last Legislature, there will hereafter be two voting places in the tp. Tho voting place for the Northern precinct, including all that part of the township lying north of the Milford and Chillicothe turn pike, will be at the usual room in the Court House.

The voting place for the Southern precinct, including all that part of the township lying south of the same road, will be at Esq. Doggett's office, on High street, south of the new Town HalL By order of Township Trustees. We regret to learn that Prof. Ec G. Smith, of our Union Schools, is confined to his house by sickness, Mr.

This is the third death from the same disease that has occurred in the same house (the old Mattill corner) within a few months past. The County Fair. The attendance on the first two days of the Fair (Taesday and Wednesday) was quite small, bat on the third day, there was a large crowd of pcop'e on the irroands. Unfortunately, however, the last day, (Friday) was wet and disagreeably cold, and the attendance was probably not half as large as it would have been had the weather been pleasant. As the managers depended chiefly on the last day to bring them ont financially, we fear the result was not encouraging, bat hope the receipts were sufficient to pay all expenses, and leave a small balance on the right side of the leger.

The display of Cattle was pronounced by good judges the best ever made at any of our County Fairs. There were five fine herds of Short Horns exhibited, two from Robs county and three from Highland. The two first premiums on herds were taken by the Ross county cattle, owned by Messrs. Jones and Anderson. Messrs.

H. H. and 8. E. Bedkey, R.

R. West, and J. H. Edinfleld, of this county, also had some very fine Short Horns, and divided the remaining premiums among them. The show of Horses and Mules was not near equal to that of last year.

There were some very good Hogs and Sheep, bat the number was small. We saw no Poultry. Of Agricultural Implements the display was unusually large. Among them we noticed a new Plow, called the "Forest King," exhibited by Mr. Jenkins Manker, of Clay City, Ills, formerly of Hillsboro, which attracted much attention.

It is designed for plowing timber land, and the inventor claims it entirely does away with the necessity of using the mattock to dig np roots. Mr. Manker sold a number of his Plows during the Fair. Floral Hall made a poor display, compared with former years, owing principally to the almost complete failure of the fruit crop, and the absence of the nsual fine display of flowers by the ladies of Hillsboro, who for some reason did not take as much interest in the Fair as in former years. Messrs.

Cloxton Bender, of this place, exhibited a very fine-toned Organ, of their manufacture, which was well played by Miss Norah Cloxton and was generally surrounded by a crowd of admiring listeners. We learn that Messrs. C. B. are turning out all the Organs they can make, and have orders ahead to keep busy for some time.

They are certainly making a very superior instrument, and we advise all who want organs to patronize home Industry, instead of sending their money abroad. The Baby Show came off on the last day. Only two babies were entered, and they were so nearly matched that the judges were unable to decide which was the prettiest, so they concluded to divide the premiums between them, giving each $3. The names of the premium babies are Josie Snyder, aged months, and Jessie Whitehead, aged 5 months. Both are residents of this place, and both are really very pretty children.

Gov. Allen and Ex-Gov. Hayes both attended the Fair, according to invitation, but In consequence of missing a railroad connection, Gov. Allen did not reach here until Wednesday night, and therefore could not visit the Fair nntil Thursday. Ex-Gov.

Hayes arrived on Thursday morning, and immediately after dinner, the two distinguished gentlemen, accompanied by the editors of the Gazette and News, were driven ont to the grounds in an open carriage, preceded by the Leesburg band. Gov. Allen was Introduced to the people by the editor of the News, and spoke from the carriage about five minutes, expressing his hearty sympathy with the farming interests and returning thanks for this kind reception. He closed by introducing Ex-Gov. Hayes, who spoke about the same length of time.

The brief remarks of both gentlemen were received with great favor. Many of the people pressed np to the carriage, to shake hands with the two Governors, and after a few minutes they were driven back to town, where they arrived just as the rain commenced filling. Grand Master Ellis, of the State Grange, was expected to speak on Friday, but was prevented from coming, by sickness. Unclaimed Letters remaining in Hillsboro Post Office, Oct 6, 1875. Baldwin, A.

Hog Cholera. We copy the following from the Fayette County Herald of last week Editors Hebald Mr. James Elliott, a wealthy farmer, from near New Petersburg, in Highland county, out of 180 hogs had, when in our neighborhood last week, S3 left from cholera. He says the disease has spread far and wide through that country first by importation and then by the buzzards. These birds carry it all over their range.

To prevent this all hogs dying with this disease should be immediately deeply buried. There are many fine hogs throughout that county, mm! imwty farmer are nnrrying to sell otf their hogs, at reduced prices, before they get sick. Mr. father states that there are parties from this county, buying those hogs, and one from near Washington.

Mb. Editor I have been sadly grieved, to notice oft-repeated doses of slang In the "Democratic papers," concerning Gen. E. F. Noyes' wooden limb.

It 01 becomes them at this late day to thns make sport of one of Ohio's best and most patriotic men, and yet it is a fitting tribute to a brave man, from them who have cansed enough blood to flow to float the Great Eastern, to speak as they do. They dont forget the many favors we soldiers Bent them in 1861 and '65. I well remember the day, that Gen. Noyes lost bis leg, as he then commanded oar regiment, the 3th O. V.

V. I. It was on the 4th day of July, 1864, at Nickajack Creek. We had marched S3 miles the day before, and were on the march again by daylight on the morning of the 4th. We had marched perhaps fonr miles, when we formed line of battle, and advanced upon the enemy, our regiment and the 27th Ohio having the advance, the 43d and 63d Ohio supporting.

We struck the enemy after about fifteen minntcs' advance, and from that time until IS M. we drove them at the point of the bayonet, nntil they had reached their intrencuments, which occupied an elevated hill, in the center of a field, In form of an apex. From 18 M. till P. M.

we lay under their fire. We had not tasted water nor bread, since before daylight that morning. At F. M. we received orders to assault the works.

Gen. (then Col.) Noyes passed along the regimental front, and said, "Boys, we have to assault those works In ten minutes. Keep yonr line. March steadily, shoulder to shoulder, until yoa reach the Held. Then I win give the command, Forward Everyman for himself, and the best man there first.

Never come back, boys Go over them, and yell like the very devil The time arrived the bugle sounded forward and rcsolntely did those two devoted regiments advance into that Maelstrom of death. We passed the woods received their first fire, and then, in clarion notes, rang out the sharp command, thnt was heard above the crash of musketry, "Forward, 39Ui 1 Charge bayonett." It was the last command he ever uttered to his old regiment. Just as the last word left his lips, a minnie ball pierced his leg, and he sank upon that bloody field. Two of the boys stopped to carry him off, but be said, "Leave me alone, boys. Take those works." Gallantly did his noble regiment obey bis last command.

With a cheer that was heard above the roar of battle, they sprang to their work. Through the abattis, np the hill, across the ditch, over the works, amongst the dead and dying, through that firery shower of shot, shell, and minnie balls, they forced their way, and carried the works at the point of the bayonet. Nobly was it done, and as cheer after cheer rolled over the field it was the proudest moment of our lives. Alas It was nobly done, but our gallant Col. lay weltering in his blood, and scores of oar brave boys lay here and there on that bloody field.

They had given their lives on the "glorious 4th," and a fitting baptism of that day was the blood of our brave men. Thus it was that that leg was lost, that appears to fret our Democratic friends. Shame on such manhood 1 Shame on sach loyalty! bnt thank God, the boys in blue will vote the way they shot, Mr. Editor, please to publish, and confer a favor on many members of the old 39th Ohio.

were by the Supreme Court only on the ground of the mili tary necessity at that time pressing upon the Government. The Conrt were careful to go no further. The Democracy then claimed and still claim, that notwithstanding the terrible exigency of the times, the issuance of greenbacks was unauthorized. When asked bow an issue of greenbacks can be jnstified now In time of peace, when the revenue of the Government is amply sufficient for its pur poses; and when asked why the Supreme Court should not decide such an issue unconstitutional, Democrats reply that as great a necessity exists now as then that we are still in trouble incident to the war. But Democrats and Liberals have denounced Grant for his interference in the affairs of the Southern States, because the war was veer; because reconstruction was accomplished, and the Southern States were again in the Union, clothed in their rights.

How can the Democracy, for one purpose, say the country is at rest, and no necessity existing for the exercise of extraordinary powers, and then, lor another purpose, say that the country is still in confusion, and the exercise of extraordinary powers warranted H. M. H. The Board of Examiners and Teachers' Certificates. and Teachers' Certificates.

CARMEL, Ohio, Sept. 24, 1875. KpiTon News There seems to be considerable feeling in regard to our Board of School Examiners, or perhaps, more properly speaking, in regard to the examinations prepared by said Board, to test the ability of applieants for certificates. We have obtained the information that onr worthy Probate Judge has received requests to remove Prof. Mc-Kibben from the Board.

We believe it is claimed that the examinations in Arithmetic are too rigid. Prof. McKibben has charge of Arithmetic Hence the demand for his removal. We presume the complainants overlook one fact, and that is. Prof.

McKibben was onctof the School Examiners of this county for a stated time. He accepted the position. He cannot be re-' moved, except for incapacity'or misdemeanor in office. No one would think for a moment of charg- -ing Prof. McKibben with either offense.

Therefore, as teachers, or persons wishing to teach, we mast submit to the examinations, if they are rigid. Now a word as to the examinations in Arithme-' tic Your correspondent had the pleasure of being present at the last examination, (Sept. 18th) and had a conversation with Prof. McKibben on this very subject, (and I beg his pardon for reproducing a portion of it here). In that conversation he said, out of ten problems given at an examination, enough of them were comparatively easy, so that any personjwith sufficient knowledge to teach Arithmetic, could pass.

Then he puts one or two problems on the board, to give applicants something new to think about. That he did not expect or even require every applicant to solve all the problems. Now, who can object to this Certainly no person who has the interest of the schools of Highland County at heart. Again we say, without fear of successful contradiction, the present Board of Examiners is the most efficient and practical Board we have ever had. That the Schools of Highland County have attained as much efficiency as they have, is due in a great measure to our Examining Board.

And we should regard it as disastrous to the schools of the county, to have a lessfncicnt Board. "Again, Prof. Doggett informed ns that the State Commissioner of Schools had instructed the Board I to raise the standard of examinations that too many certificates were being issued. To all of which we heartily subscribe and endorse. We have been told that some parties ore making, or trying to make, political capital out of this mat- tcr, with a view to the defeat of Judge Norton.

Now we ask these people to remember that Judge Norton is not responsible for the examinations being rigid. We wish Democrats to remember that their own School Commissioner advised It. And to oar own efficient Board of Examiners we say, never lover the standard of examination, and the real, true teacher will support yon. And we call upon the people, regardless of political proclivities, who take an interest in school matters, never to let the standard be lowered. A TEACHER.

Penn Township. The "click" of the corn-cotter is again heard in the land. "Jack Frost" nipped green corn and now it Is dry. "Very dry," says the cntter, as he bathes his scratched hands In the evening. The wheat is not all sown yet, on account of the soil being so dry and hard.

All quiet in politics, too quiet, I fear. Mr. D. A. Ockerman and Miss Laura Davis were married on the 22d.

No cards. The Dnnkards will hold their Communion at their church in this township, on Saturday, Oct. 9, meetings continuing two or three days. Regular preaching at the church on the second and fourth Sundays of each month. Methodists have preaching at Auburn Chapel on Sunday, Oct, 3, at 3 P.

M. and at Samantha at night, and at each place every two weeks thereaf ter at the same time. The Friends hold meetings at their meeting house near Samantha, on Thursdays and Sundays, at 11 A.M. The Union Sabbath School held at the Dunkard church will hold a kind of a reunion, soon. The work is in the hands of a committee, and the meeting will probably be held about the fourth Sunday in October.

SCKIPTOB, A Card From W. P. Hughey, Esq. Editor News A communication appeared in the Hillsboro Gazette of Sept 23d, signed "North Precinct of Paint," the writer of which professed to be a Republican, who intended to vote for Allen. Having understood that the authorship of said communication has been attributed to me, by some persons, I take this method of saying that had no knowledge of it whatever until I saw it in print, and furthermore that I regard the financial views of Gov.

Allen as dangerous to the prosperity of the country, and therefore I shall vote for Hayes and the whole Republican ticket. Eespectfully yours, W. P. HUGHEY. Facts for Voters to Consider.

It is hardly necessary to produce acts and figures to prove the vast amount of crime, misery, loss of time and money by the use of intoxicating liquors. It is said that at least sixty thousand persons die annually from this cause that 200,000 children aro made orphans that more than half of the crime is caused by it and that the nation pays per aDnum for litigation caused directly by the use of liquors as a beverage We can all see and know enough about it from observation and reading the papers. There is scarcely a paper we see but has something in it like this Deaths murders suicides fights broils parting of man and wife all produced by the use of liquors. The heart-rending sorrow this causes to our race no tongue can tell or pencil picture in its true light. Now who is responsible Direct ly, the liquor-seller indirectly, every person who gives his influence on the side of drinking liquor as a beverage every person who gives his influence to those who either directly or indirectly are holding up the hands of those engaged in the traffic.

I have often felt sorry to hear of old men (and perhaps their names are in some church book) stepping into cne of those sinks of iniquity a shame Misleading, by their bad example, our sons down to shame and ruin and a drunkard's grave, after we have spent our time and money to make them useful citizens, and comforts to us in our declining years Tea, they are dragging their own sons down to dishonor and perhaps a felon's grave. My own opinion is, that no person who believes intemperance to be an evil and who is working to rid our nation of it, should either directly or indirectly do anything that would encourage the liquor traffic. But, says some one, "tho drunkards are tho most to blame, and ought to be severely punished for it" Stop, my friend, don't be too fast Perhaps some of our old and steady citizens have not been guiltless in this matter. We have heard old men, in the presence of boys, say, "It is no harm to take a dram;" "good persons used to drink liquor "I sell my grain to the dmim "God don't prohibit us from dealing in liquors "no sumptuary laws "God commands us to use wine and strong drink." Thus, by precept and esampie, ttieJ cause the down- iau and ruin of some of our best young men. uThon art the man." How a dram-drinker can ask a Temperance man to vote for him, nas always been a mystery to me, wnen we know that everv vote in creases his influence, and that perhaps he may use that influence to drag our sons or friends down to ruin and disgrace.

FLORA. A False Accusation. In order to divert public attention from the nro- claimed and shameful alliance between the Democratic party of Ohio and the Roman Catholic priest- nooa, the Democratic papers are raising a great hue-and-cry about "religions charging me itcpuuucans with trying to stir up "religious prejudices," 4c, because they oppose the attacks of the priesthood upon oar Common School sys tem. There is not a word of truth in the charge. No Republican paper or speaker has attacked the Catholic religion.

Catholics have the some right to their religious belief as Protestants, and no one proposes to Interfere with that right. But when the Catholic press and priesthood openly declare war upon onr Common School system, as they have done, and thus attempt to unite Church and State, tn violation of the fundamental principles of our Gov ernment, it is high time that every patriot should take the alarm, and cry out against the audacious aggression. We Bay to these officious, meddling priests, we make no war against your religion. You are welcome to believe that the Pope is infallible, If yoa choose, and that yours is the only true faith. Yoa have the same right to your religions belief that Protectants claim to theirs but when you assail and attempt to destroy oar School sys tern, we say to yoa "Hands off You are attack ing one of the cherished institutions of our State, with which no church or sect has any right to interfere.

On this subject, the Detroit Post makes the fol- owi ng just remarks Every sensible man knows, and every intelligent Roman Catholic knows, that the Republican party is not "at war" with the "holy religion" of the Romish Church, or any other church. The Republican party has nothing to do with chnrch questions, or church religions. It meddles with no church anywhere. But it does stand firmly in support ot the American cnm'non school system. If anything is "at war," it is that part of the church which hat made war upon the common schools, and not the Republican party.

The Republican party did not begin tho trouble in Ohio over the Geghan law. That law was introduced in the Legislature by a Roman Catholic, in the interest of that Chnrch. No Republican ever thought of doing anything to bring on the discussion which the introduction and fiassage of that ill-advised law has provoked. So New York. The Republicans certain lv did nut begin the agitation of the school question.

And so every where. Those who disturb the public peace by assailing the most cherished American Institutions can not lay the blame of the agitation which follows upon those who simply stand in defense of the institutions which arc assniled. And those who thrnst a church into politics, and ally it with a political party, con not claim that it he treated with forlieariug reverence when it acts as a political organization. HENRIE HOUSE.

Chafee, Cluy City, By neing this Plow the roughest, nngrnbhed timber land can be plowed as thoroughly, as speedily, and with nearly the same ease that the Prairie con be plowed with the ordinary plow.

IDBSCRIPTION. These Plows are made of the best German Plow Steel; the monldhoard and share of one piece, with the welded np the entire front thereof, so as to obtain the greatest poMiblc strenetn. The upright to of good wrought iron, and made double; one proug eitending down the inner sine 01 the bar, where it receives two inch holts, and also the brace supporting the rwir end of the beam, ana the handle. The other prong turns under the mould where it receive one Ji inch bolt passing 'hrougn the mould, and having its outer end bent to an angle, so as to receive the monldhoard handle, tnereoy forming a very neat and substantial frame for the support of the plow. The cutters arc made of THE KEST SOLID CAST STEEL, and are constructed with ratchet teeth on the rear edge, which engngea the beam plate in such a mon uer as to prevent the cutter from sliding up when coruine in contact with a grnh or stump, wnicn, in combination with two beam holts and clasp, forms a substantial fastening, which can be let down by degrees as it becomes worn off at the point by use.

INSTRUCTIONS It will be observed that when this plow in in running position, the point end of the beam stands elevated about three iuches above the level the heel of the share also stands about one inch, (the point of the plow of conrse resting npon the ground,) when held in this position will rnn sufficiently deep for ordinary plowing.
