A Mean Theft. One day last week young farmer and his' wife, from lthe northern pirt of Adams county, came to town to buy a little stock of groceries and dry goo Is, and having completed their purchases, which took nearly every cent they had, the man set the containing the dry goods in the store of Messrs.

Scott Rhoads, while he went to hitch up his team. He was gone only 5 or 10 minutes, and on returning to get his' basket, found that some one had taken it in his absence. He supposed at first that it must have been taken by mistake, but after waiting patiently for two or three hours, hopes that it would be returned, the unfortunate pair were compelled go home without it The goods they had bought were for clothing greitly needed, and they had no means to buy more. It was a hard case, and excited the sympathy of all who saw the victims of the mean and shabby theft 1 -Washington Dec. 18, 1873.

Dio Lewis's Lecture Dec. 22d. On next Monday evening our citizens will have the rare opportunity of hearing the celebrated Dr. Dio Lewis. Tbe Lecture he delivers here is the one which has received such high praises in all the cities of our country.

The- subject is "Our Girls," and the Lecture abounds in amusement and instruction. The Hall should be crowded on the occasion. Don't forget the College Entertainment, Thursday evening. Rev. W.

McCune's Lecture on "Christian Unity." Rev. W. McCune, of Cincinnati, Lectured, accordingly to announcement, in the Presbyterian Church last Saturday evening, and in the M. E. Church on Sunday The house was crowded on the last and the Lecture was listened, to with great interest The subject was "Christian Unity," or the union of all evangelical Protestant denominations into one visible church." Mr.

Mc Cune argued that Christ intended to establish but one church, and that Christians had." departed from Jus teachings in dividing themselves into so many different churches. He be lieved that the spirit of unity is rap- idly increasing in all the churches, and that the way is being prepared for their union in body as Well as in spirit Until this complete and per fect union, in one grand and all-em bracing church, is realized, he thinks the world will never be converted, nor the MiHenial age Mr. McCune is a forcible reasoner, and at times was quite eloquent, and his views evidently made a deep impres sion upon his audience. The pulpit was occupied by Revs Cowden and Bolton, of the M. E.

church, and Rev. McCune and Mc- Surelyof the Presbyterian church After the Lecture, Mr. McSurely said he endorsed the views of Mr. McCune in the main, and had for years held similar opinions in regard to the necessity of Christian Union- He also announced that Mr. McCune is publishing a weekly paper in advoca of his views, called "The Christian Unity, and thaf; "he would be glad to receive subscriptions, -at a year, or $1.50 in clubs of ten, or $1.40 in lubs of 20.

Persons wishing to subscribe can hand their names and money to Mr. McSurely, or forward them direct to Rev. W. McCune, Cincinnati. 1 Baptist Chubch.

The new windows for the church are of ground and stained glass, and are- from the establishment of Win.

They cost considerably less than outside shutters and inside blinds, and will answer the purpose of both.

ly of be of Home Correspondence. From Mourytown. Items of news are scarce. Health of township good; schools flourishing; churches in peace and harmony, but rather deficient in religious vitality; weather changeable, warm, wet and cold alternately. We had a heavy rain last Wednesday night, causing very high water and overflow in the creeks, doing some damage.

Wheat looks moderately well. Hogs are about all sold, at from $3 to $4 per hundred, gross. Farmers commenced selling early. The price did not suit, and hogs were not as fat as usual, but the crop of corn was short, and they were compelled to sell whether the price suited or not A great many think they will not raise any next year. Now a word to my brother Grangers.

Our lodge is flourishing and on the increase. We are not in proper working condition as yet, but expect to derive great benefit from the order, morally, socially and financially. Financially in this way. I noticed a difference of from 50 cts. to $1 in the price of hogs in the city and here; always one or two middlemen between the packers and us.

This we might have saved, had we been properly or ganized. Again, a man showed me a great pile of potatoes in his cellar at Hillsboro the other day, that he expected to get two dollars per bushel for in the spring. Why can't we keep onr potatoes just load, a car in the spring and ship them, shar ing expense and profit? And so on to the end of the chapter. There is no mistake, we can do better in this direction than we have been Then, on the other hand, I notice that every winter, when work is a little slack, there is any amount of farmers and farmers' sons, who take an agency for this, that or the other patent, or some medical humbug, that We don't need and would be bet ter without; and travel around among us, picking up an uncertain profit and doing ns no good. Had we not better stay at home and attend to our farms, straighten our creeks, repair the fences, stables, sheds, barns, dig up the briers, haul up the leaves and rich dirt from the waste places, and thus increase our manure heap, and by these means increase our crops? We would thus certainly make more money in the end.

We complain of hard times and low prices. Let us quit growling and peddling humbugs, and go to work. The fact is, we are getting pretty fair prices for our produce. We are not making money, simply because we are not farming as we should. I would not say this to outsiders, but among ourselves the fact should be frankly admitted, and the remedy sought for.

Take all our crops together, prices are high enough for the consumer to pay. Wheat, barley, potatoes, are, a fair price; apples scarce and high; corn cheap, but a good farmer rarely sells his corn; hay is dear, pork is too low, beef and mutton cheap, but dear enough for quality. Really good beef and mutton commands a fair price. Yet we complain of hard times. Why? Simply because toe do not farm tcell enough to insure good crops.

We raise produce enough, but our average crops are so low that they afford little profit So of our live stock; we pay too little attention to the breeding of choice animals; the market is flooded with inferior meat, which costs the farmer more than it is worth to consumers. Now, may advance prices sometimes, but we often will have to take what we can get Fortunately, there are a good many men willing to try to make a living by buying and selling. There competition enough, as a rule, to secure us, taking one year with another, all our articles are worth. Our business is, to raise the best at the least cost Take the article of pota toes, for instance. Some say no money can be made raising potatoes at 50 cts.

per bushel Suppose, instead of raising 75 bushels, we raise 175 or 200 bushels per acre. So of wheat or corn. I saw last harvest wheat that yielded from 5 to 10 bushels per acre on poor land, and with poor tillage, while on good land and with proper cultivation, 20 and 25 bushels were raised. Don't you see? So it is with other crops. Now let us stick together; culti vate our farms better, and thus secure better crops and more money for them; also cultivate our moral, religious and social natures.

God's first command in the morning of creation, was to till the land. There fore let us quit ourselves like men. Tours truly, C. F. B.

From Sinking Springs. Two Temperance meetings have recently been held, the first on the night of Nov. 20, at which Mr. W. M.

C. Elliott was Chairman, and Rev. C. Ambrose Secretary. Resolutions were drawn, which, after a live discussion, (quickened especially, by the casual entrance of the subject Masonry, and of the influence it exerts in subsidizing or neutralizing prominent advocates of temperance,) were passed, and are as follows: 1.

Resolved, That we look with alarm upon the increase of intemperance in our vicinity, and believe it to du9 to the illegal sale of intoxicating liquors in our midst 2. That we, the citizens of Sinking Springs and vicinity, will earnestly endeavor to learn of any infringment the law in regard to the sale of in toxicating drinks, and will encourage and assist in the prosecution of any and all violations thereof. 3. That if any person shall con tinue the sale of liquor in violation of law, in our villige, we will withold all patronage from such person, and wtll use our influence with others, to do likewise. 7 One week thereafter was held an other meeting.

In the absence of Mr. Elliott, Hon. P.N. Wickerham was called to preside. The committee appointed to obtain speakers from abroad, reported failure.

Upon call of the audience, Mr. D. Copeland, "taken on surprise," surprised it with an excellent 6peech- P. N. Wickerham and Rev.

Cole, also delivered sterling and stirring addresses. The beautiful song, "What shall the Harvest be?" (Miss Mary East at the organ) was sung. Adjournment, tomeet again in two weeks, was the final conclusion. Council Proceedings. Council met in adjourned meeting.

Present Mayor, Clerk, Councilmen Doggett, Gardner, Morrow and Tormg. Absent Bumgarner. Reports of committees received. Leave granted to Committee on Scales for further time in which to prepare ordinance. Committee on Light presented an ordinance, which was read, and under the rule laid upon the table.

A petition from N. Rockhold and others was presented and referred to the Mayor. The Mayor appointed Ed Mullenix as Night Watchman, and on motion said appointment was confirmed. The Mayor appointed EL S. Ful-lertion as member of Council, to fill vacancy occasioned by the resignation of D.

Murphy. Appointment confirmed. On motion, adjourned. County Papers. The Washington Republic thus truthfully speaks of the value of a good home paper: The newspaper which announces the state of the markets, and gives information of drouths and floods, so that the farmer may be enabled to secure the full advantage of the time, is essential.

A family paper, which is the berald of both joy and sorrow, and which, by instructing the youth, kef-ps them out of bad society, is paying its way a thousand fold. We venture to assert that no family can either become or remain prosperous that is deprived of its newspaper. Rejil estate, and all otaer property would depreciate if an organized county should permit its local papers to languish or to die. In fact, we know of class of men who pay their way so fully as the conductors of the five thousand local weekly journals in tho United States. for 1874.

The other day, away down in Dover, New Hampshire, a one hundred dollar bill actually paid debts amounting to $1,000, and within dght hours returned to the man who first paid it out in the morning. It happened that A owed $100. He paid it owed $100, so he paid the bill over to him. Thus it went, and the ninth gentleman to whom it was paid happening to owe A $100 paid it over to him, so that it paid all these debts and came back to its original owner.

This is a fact If money could be kept moving in this way the times would soon be easier. The law concerning legal measures inspires the Warren Chronicle to make the following sensible remarks: In the matter of weighing grain, an exchange has the following, which we believe to be the true plan: "If people would act sensibly and count all grain by the pound, as they actually buy and sell, this nonsense of weighing it and then translating it up into bushels, would be got rid of. Why not sell oats at a cent and aquirter or a centand a half a pound; or sell wheat at two and a half or three cents a pound or corn at a cent? Why must we bother ourselves with so much old trumpery in trade? We have almost quit counting money by shillings, and now let us count everything else by units and hundredths."

After the crash of '57, when everybody was almost scared to death and the croakers predict ed.that the country had gone to smash, a dry goods house was opened in Chicago, which proceeded on the principle that in order to reach the hoarded money in the pockets of the people, the' proprietors must Bell at very reasonable prices, and advertise very largely.

They worked vigorously npon this principle. Their brother merchants who did not advertise predicted that the i new-comers would be ruined, as they paid too much for advertising. Nevertheless they persisted. In a single year they paid five hundred dollars in gold to one daily paper for advertising, and at the end of seven years they-retired from the business with a fortune of one hundred thousand dollars, while the merchants on the same- street, some of them opposite their store, had failed. The lesson of '57 should not be forgotten in '73.

There is money In the pockets of the people. It is being hoarded. The merchants must draw it out. That can be done only by low prices and extended advertising in established journals Commercial travelers bring plenty of credit business to the merchants, but comparatively little cash. It is as clear as the noonday sun that the more credits the merchant has on" his books the worse he will be off.

He wants the solid cash, and that can be best obtained by judicious advertising. A Beautiful Fiend; or, Through The Fire, is the startling name of Mis. Emma D. E. N.

Cincinnati is the most central of the large cities of tl Nation, and on all sides Is supported by thriiry and prosperous communities, in which for bant, reds of miles in every direction, the Commer cial is the favorite newspaper. In a political sense the Commercial is thoroughly inde iendcnt. It recognizes no obligations to party orgs ligations. Its sincerity in this position is popularly understood, and so largely appreciated that its subscriber and habitual purchasers in either political party outnumber those of the party or-ans, and its aggregate circulation is greater than that if its competitors combined. It takes hearty interest In the politics of Europe, whic i telegraphic communication has brought into very intimate relations with us, and, earnestly vin- licating and sustaining the development of nation ality in Germany and Italy, it cordially sympathizes with the Republican cause in France and Spain.

Tbe specialty of the Commercial Is the news of the ray. We spare no effort and no expense at uonv; or abroad, to obtain by telegraph, by mail and 'iy express, the latest intelligence, and to present it in the most attractive and anthenUC form. Onr Editorial remarks upon events, and discussions of the uestions of tbe day, are according to our independent judgment, having always in view the effi cacy of the truth in the Interests of the people. We do not seek official favors or partisan patronage, but rely wholly upon the business that grows out of the aspect and good will of the public at large. Tie current history of the world win possess.

The complications in our foreign relations, even threatening war, must command constantly our se-riouh consideration, and the session of the American Congress about commencing, win absorb in an mutual degree the attention of the country, for the 3ioet vital and searching issues, financial and polit ical, await practical solution. Tbe daily newspaper at such time becomes al most a necessity of life, and it is not hazardous to claim for the Cincinnati Commercial that it ia at race the most complete and trustworthy journal is sued in the Ohio Valley the center of the popula tion ind the scat of the political power of ihe Nation.
