The ladies caq now fit themselves for practice at the bar as there is no longer any legal restriction opposed to it.

We may expect that the deportment of lawyers will be very much improved. The cold snap of the last few days has brought frosty nights, varied in intensity light, as usual along the lake shore, and quite blasting in portions of the interior. But little has been noticed in this Tillage. Prof. Perkins will begin his normal school of music, in Ashtabula, July 24.

Those who wish te take advantage of this institution in our midst, will bear in mind the time, and hold themselves in readiness to step up and in. Thq Cleveland folks were in a thrill of excitement on Monday afternoon last, over the arrival of the "City of Detroit," from Detroit, in six minutes better time than ever before made. This is a large, new and fine craft, built for the Detroit line. A communication has been received from the Harbor intimatiner that the "good man at the wheel," has been overtaken by the powers of darkness, but as onr confidence in the integrity of the old man cannot be easily shaken, we must wait for further developments. Mrs.

S. C. Smith, of Bunker Hill, met with a somewhat serious accident in the rupture of some of the tissues of the stomach, the other day, while lifting an article of household furniture. Though confined to her bed and to one position of the body, the indications of recovering are favorable. Professor Howard's singing class, held Saturday evenings at the chapel of the PresDyterian church, is continually growing in interest, and youngest learners are improving their vocal organs.

The refreshing indications of life and business shown at the corner of Main and Centre streets, has been somewhat interrupted a day or so in establishing lints and agreeing upon the manner of putting up the walls, either in company, or inde pendently.

Honest differences of opinion seem to be entertained in this community, and if apt gracefully, at any rate tolerated. The last indications were that each party would adopt Tom Benton's idea "solitary and alone I put this ball in motion." Teacher's Examination.

J. N. McGiffert, May 15, 1878. Chairman fo Board. Council Proceedings.

The Council met last Wednesday evening. In absence ot Clerk. T. E. Iloyt was appointed Clerk pro tern.

All members were present except Councilman Randall. The Sidewalk Coram, reported that only one-half of the property owners on the east side of Lake street were in favor of a sidewalk on that side of said street, and therefore did not recommend the passage of an ordinance for that purpose. An ordinance to provide for the appointment, and to define the duties and powers of a Harbor Master," was read for the first time, the rules suspended and the ordinance passed. The following appointments were made by the Mayor and confirmed by the Council: Geo. Brake as Assist.

Engineer of Fire Department and E. H. Gilkey as captain of steamer Xeptune. The bonds of Wm. Rennick as night-watchman, and Chas.

L. Scoville as policeman were presented and approved. On motion adjourned. Finale. Our friend of the Timet lets himself gracefully down, from that "ridiculous" business of the "young man," and thus making a good point, and an inoffensive one, there is no ooiecuon to letting mm take the advantage of it, and then closing up a matter that was so indiscreetly opened by him and the other county papers.

Although the precept is yenerable with age, that "discretion is the better part of valor," the doughty heroes, of our county press, seem not to have achieved a mastery of the simple lesson. The generous liberality of one of these fellows, we are pleased to notice, gives him a proud prominence. He tells us tacitly, that while opposed to the election of Mr. Thorp, he is now one ef his apologist and defenders. This shows that the man is not slavishly tied up to any particular view of a subject, but is able to accommodate himself to either, or both sides of it.

There is, however, but one thing about this that seems to bother ns, and that is with a general availability and adaption of this graceful facility, the man should magnify himself over its application to this particular subject. Common Pleas Court. At the present term, which held thus by Hon. E. B.

Taylor, the Grand Jury closed their labors on Thursday, presenting the following indictments: Frank Lampman and Amelia Fassett, robbery and grand larceny. Jacob Clark, assault and battery.

Field's Little Jake was entered in the second race 2 :28, which he won in 2 :34, 2 :35 and 2 :41. The first "was a three minute race and was won by Bell H. of Detroit time 2:45, 2:45 and 2:45. At Meadville on Wednesday the three minute race was taken by a horse named Hermeg time 2:40, 2:46. At Mystic Park, Boston, the 2 8 race was won by W.

H. in three straight heats time 2 :37, 2 :33 and 2 :32. The 2:24 race was won by Thempoline, in three straight heats time 2 and 2:29. The Hambletonian stallion Risingham, shot a few days ago at Middletown, N. because of his viciousness, had killed three men and crippled twenty more.

A few days before his death he bit off the right cheek of a negro. The previous Keeper lost an ear, and his predecessor three fingers and a part of an arm. Five shots were fired in the forehead of Risingham as he stood in his stall. They seemed to have no effect upon him except to increase his attempts to get at the bystanders, and to add to the ferocity of his kicking and jumping. By strategy Dr.

Schults managed to sever his jugular vein, and he bled to death, dying as he had lived, exhibiting all the fierceness of a most vicious nature. His last effort was to seize his owner's arm in his teeth. Real Estate Transfers. is For the week ending May 11, 1878. Ashtabula Fisk and Morrison.Trustees to Geo.

The contributions have not been as full and generous as the scope of the work demands, aud it is hoped that further heip will be tendered at once. Those who expect to contribute labor should be on hand without delay, as the season is advancing, and whatever is to be done, should be made immediately available. So also, with cash subscriptions. The money shonld be handed in, so as to secure labor and teams that the work may not languish or be delayed. A little liberality now will secure a first class track, which at litt'e expense may be a source of amusement and pleasure for many years to come.

Tel: We had a terrible white frost this morning, but we have one consolation, that we have not woiricd for nothing. Our Bankrupt Auction sale from Bristol is haying an easy thing. A visit to the room long after the sale should commence, revealed, instead of the surging crowd we expected, only two boys trying to drive a bargain to ring the bell on the street, to "wake 'em up." But Saturday night the salesman, with the indifference of a reckless mau, struck off four papers of pins for five cents, this struck the right cord and the news spread like wildfire. Then came the eager, excited crowd, bidding, as usual, far above the regular prices in many cases, but it did not seem to worry the auctioneer, and we left. Tuesday eve.

ROCK CREEK. Frosts have tilled all tender vegetables and grapes in low or exposed situations. Other fruits, grain and grass appear uninjured. A new school district has been organized in the north part of the township and a school house is to be built. Prof.

Reeve has been engaged as principal of our schools for another year. The' Empire Minstrels gave their first entertainment at the Town Hall, Saturday eve last, to a full house. Meeting with such success here, we understand, that they will repeat their programme at other places. Few professionals can compete with Alf. Means in delineation of negro character.

The old Methodist parsonage has been remoyed and a new one is to be built in its place. Mrs. W. B. Cook.daughterof G.

M. Hoyt, died after a short i'lness and was buried on Saturday last. Our village school closes this week. Miss Kate Crosby has opened a select school for small children, and is meeting with good success. Tax levies for all purposes will be four or five mills on the dollar less than last OCCASIONAL.

HARTSGROVE. Eds. Tel: Nothing of special interest has transpired, recently, in our little town The fruit trees are loosing their beautiful petals. The spring crops are nearly half in, but the wheat! Who ever saw the like? Our greatest fears are that there will be a heavy flounder before the berry is fairly matured. If so, our poorest soils will bring the most wheat.

Our grass crcp is setting in very finely, and we are full of hope and loy. In financial matters also both saint and sinner are well pleased, John is working wonders, and poor Rutherford, if he is wise enough to take refuge under his shadow, will come through all safe. Sherman is the strongest man the nation can now boast of, and ought to be our next Presi dent. Only think of it, greenbacks above gold. Does this look like loosing our na tional credit? "But a word to the wise is sufficient." There is an amusing excitement, just now, in the public journals, on the ques tion as to the ability of a woman to throw a stone.

Newton and Watts are referred to but all are confounded. Physiology fails to give an answer. This reminds me of a simple anecdote that transpired when I was young. We then had no select schools to draw the surplus of our scholars. but old and young, from three to twenty-one years, were huddled together in one small log school house.

Our first effort was at Windsor Mills, with from seventy to eighty scholars in daily attendance. These varied from the blubbering brat in the alphabet up to the shrewd grammarian and mathematician. We also had all the copies to write, and pens to mend, and all this for three dollars per week, and that sometimes in worthless wild cut money. But to return to our story, there were two boys, about sixteen years old, who had mas- tered old Dabol, without asking the teach er a single question, and haying fairly ac complished this feat, they evidently felt a little proud of the yictory. We then said, "boys, I have a stumper for you." "Fetch it on," tney ootn sain.

"Well, Hi penny and a half will buy a herring and a half, how many will throe pennies buy?" The boys tried every conceivable rule and then gave it up and wished an explanation. One of these bovs is now the learned Judge William Clapp, of Indiana; the other is Mr. Edward Skinner, one of the first class business men of Jersey City. But in reference to the throwing of stones, the true answer is very simple and has been entirely everlooked by those great philosophers. The answer is clearly this, it is a matter of simple practice.

There is no reason why women may not become as skillful in wielding the various implements of husbandry as men, but she may lack a little in physical power, and it is precisely so in regard to throwing of stones. New let any man try and throw a stone with his left hand, and he will find his effort as fee ble and awkward as that of a woman, unless he has been trained to throw left handed. We once knew a boy who always threw left handed, and he was an excellent hand with a stone. Some said he was born a sending. Take the case of the ancient Benja-mites, they were all trained to use the left hand in slinging stones in war, and yet they were said to throw a stone to a hair's R.

D. N. KINGSVILLE. Eds. Tel: Though the weather of late has not been productive of thunder storms, the playful exhibition of Heaven's artil lery of something more than a week ago, made the escape of Dan Squires, of Monroe, a very narrow one.

Being but a little distance from a tree that received a bolt, and was slivered, he has had a lame knee, but is able to get about. Sorrel is more or less plentiful through out the county. The landscape is tinged with red. No complaints have been heard, or sour visages seen, however much cause them may be for such states of mind. The sail in our southern border towns, is fit for the plow the water having dried off.

The frosts of the last few nights, in Monroe and vicinity, have not done serious damage. The splendid wheat fields, are watched by their owners with jealous care, and if the transit of Mercury or any other fellow, has any designs on us in this direction, the quicker we know it the better. Our High School is now arranging for the close of the spring term, with a first class literary entertainment, On Thursday evening next. We rather deplore the necessity of our allusion to quite a number of our young men, as it is calculated to reflect upon the good name of the village. This spring seems to have deyeloped a tendency to the disturbances of the peace.

Such have been their character as to call for the exercise of the rigors of the law. A list of the names of these parties would become the Police Gazette, but no one would care to Sf them so paraded, if by a reformation, it could be avoided. Last Sabbath, Rev. Smith of the congre gational church, Kelloggsville, occupied the desk of the Presbyterian church in ex change with Rev. Bickfork.

On the subject of "vain thought," the preacher gave G. ROME. For the Telegraph by Uncle Tim. For the past two weeks we have had rain nearly every day, making it too wet on our flat lands for plowing, causing delay in finishing the sowing of oats and preparing grounds for planting. Wheat and grass has come forward rapidly.

Wheat in many cases is becoming badly lodged. Early sowed oats are looking finely. Grass seed neyer had a better catch. Potatoes are nearly all planted. Many fields are up and ready for the bug, who attack them with great ferocity, and are being picked np by the nimble fingers in large numbers.

To those who have prophesied frosts about this time, we can say that their prophesy is fulfilled to the letter. Friday opened cold with fiequent showers of hail, snow and sleet, Saturday cold with snow flakes flying. Overcoats and mittens were freely brought into use and were found comfortable. Sunday morning opened up showing us a hard black frost, Sunday cool and bracing. This Monday morning, the frost is still greater than yesterday.

Coverlids that were spread over strawberry plants, are found stiff with frost. As our garden vegetables subject to injury by frost were under cover we can't say what is the effect on those that were exposed to the frost. From many other places we learn that the Saturday night frost was far more severe than in this location. Don't yet know the effect it may have on fruit, but hope for the best. In referring back to our diary of 1853 we find first strawberry in blossom May 9.

At this time we have the green berry in large profusion and many of them as large as a fair sized hickory nut. Most kinds of vegetables far in adyance of former season. From the latest reports from other places we find that we have suffered less by frost than in many other localities. Many Ijelieye fruit badly injured if not wholly destroyed. Many of our farmers who are desirous of improving their farms and farm crops, are naturally inquiring dees it pay to buy fertilizer, and if so, what is the best kind to buy? In many cases land plaster has been freely used and in every case with no preceptible benefit to the crops.

Some we know have used as high as 3 tons in a sea sons, on different soils and different crops and proved it an entire failure. Many others have done likewise with similar re sults. There is no doubt but pure bone dust is a good fertilizer but it has risen in price above its value. Manufactured fertilizer may do for one crop but it is said by many who have used them to prove in jurious to the soil. The late Col.

Harris who is high authority, when asked his opinion as to the value of the manufac tured fertilizers of the present day, would invarible shake his head and refer you to the woods and swamps for a better article. And now comes to the front, some dealer in wheat bran and recommends it as a land fertilizer. This is only equaled as a fertil izer by sawdust which in its raw state is worthless as a manure. Wheat bran may be fed to milch cows at $10 a ton but all paid above that is money thrown away. This we know from actual experience.

We know of no fertilizer as good and cheap as to plow under the dew from Heaven. This if done a few times will bring our poor est lands to a high state of perfection, thus the old proverb, plow deep whilst the slug' gard sleeps. May 13, 1878. FROM OUR EXCHANGES. From the Geneva Times.

A sailor named Samuel Morrison was lost from the schooner Pelican, April 25, near the Straits of Mickinaw. The Buffa lo Express says Morrison was a resident Ashtabula. We are informed that Rev. Thos.

Safford, pastor of the Conureiratieniil church at Rock Creek, had left that nlaoe. We are reauosted to say that such is not the case, the rumor having been started by some irresponsible party, OUR NEW YORK LETTER. Smelling The Funding Wedding Outfit Troubles. SLUDGE ACID AND SMUDGE. If ever patience ceased to be a virtue, it was with uptown inhabitants, in regard to the odors which afflict the regions from 15lh to 59th The North River is lined with pens keeping 1000 hogs daily, slaughter houses, and fertilizer factories, hich work over refuse and carrion by the thousand tons, and these, in a west wind, blow their sickening odors iato the best neighborhoods of New York.

On the East side are the Hunter's Point Petroleum Refineries and Giant Fertilizing Works, where blood, offal and carrion are reduced by boiling and treating with sludge acid, which is oil of vitriol mixed with crude refuse petroleum, an acid of such overpow ering odor, that the blame of the stenches has been attached to it alone. Add to this the nightscows, which dump their loads after midnight in the riyer, spreading an awful, suffocating smell, which wakes the dwellers on Murray Hill out of their sleep, aud sickens the hardy crews of manure beats, and the wonder is, that decent peo ple have endured these worse than Egyp tian plagues for years, and not lynched the men whose business or whose negligence were the cause. Owners have had to leave handsome houses on account of these smells; property has depreciated along the river, till owners are unable to sell for a tenth of its value, and what is more terrible, and stamps the Board of Health with criminal indifference, is the awful fact, established by physicians, that the death rate of the city is increased 7,500 yearly, by diseases from these odors alone. With all but absolute power and ample funds to regulate such matters, the Board of Health has allowed this state of things to exist for years, and most unwillingly and tardily moves to action now, when the citizens committee has taken the matter in hand. If adequate justice were done, the commit" tee would hang the men who are guilty of the deaths of 7,500 of their fellow beings a year, out of carelessness, or from interested considerations.

COMMUNISM IN MOTION. With the want of work, and the state of semi-starvation' which has lasted another year, and the rumors of rising war in the East, there is and will be dangerous feel ing among the laborers, or rather, non-laboring classes. Men out of work, with nothing to eat, have time and temper for mischief. There is muttering of great trouble to come here the 12th jot July. The Irish element drinks and talks fight, and sits along the railroads and wharves unoccupied, and will most likely put in the time with a big riot Orangemen's The madness and wickedness of the men who threaten riot ought not to blind those better off, to the fact that the case is hard for the working man, and every sound man and true patriot will do all that in him lies, to bring about a better state of things.

No conciliating policy is advised, there was too much conciliation of rioters last year, who should have been shot at sight. But a just and humane temper observed by all good men at this point may prevent the outbreaks of last year. It is well known that there are 2,000,000 Fenian cartridges and thousands of Fenian muskets stored in Toledo, alone, where they have lain for years, and similar reserves exist in other places, and the men know where to find them in cose of labor riots. There is no occasion for getting scared, but the very best way to prevent a breath of trouble next summer is.to keep guards well equipped, and plenty of arms ready for citizens organizations. When the trouble comes, is a poor time to get ready for it.

CITY POLITICS. passage new hoped for with remarkable agreement by nearly all parties. There must be about four and a half million added to next year's city taxes to pay off bonds falling due, if this bill does not pass, its provision is to apprepriate the surplus of the sinking fund towards paying off this amount, and similar ones as they fall due. Any township in the country can sympathize with the big village over the prospect of its taxes increased by a four million debt, with the money to pay it lying idle. The temperance people are making a bold anj steadfast fight against any compromise with the liquor interest in shape of excise or license bills.

The prospect of such bills has always interfered with the enforcement of the existing stringent laws, and we mean to give these a fair trial before making a compromise with intemperance. Such a resolute attitude is necessary, when a gin-mill is the standard corner ornament of village and city blocks alike. Coffee would be a public bane were it drank to the extent and at the expense whisky is, to say nothing of the quarrelsomeness and the ruin which result from the latter. THE WOMAN'S HOTEL. woman a Stewart hotel for women, speaks highly of it as a hotel for ladies visiting the city alone, and its advantages in this way are found out rapidly by ladies all over the country and patronized accordingly.

The hotel is not a charity, nor is it designed for the lower grade of werking women, but for teachers, artists, and salaried women, as well as all ladies traveling without escort, it offers acc ommodations ef the best class at common boarding house prices. For permanent boarders, its restrictions are such as might be wisely relaxed. No one is allowed flewers, birds or sewing machine in her room, or to hang a picture, for fear of injury to the walls. Luxury for Ladies But in exchange for these conveniences, there is a luxurious library, open to all guests, parlors to receive friends of either sex, furnished in elegant modern style, a faultless table and the attendance of a first class hotel for $6 a week for boarders, and $2 a day for transient visi tors. To secure admissions, a lady out of town must write beforehand aud send the references, New York residents are pre ferred, but clergymen or business men of standing in any town are accepted.

These are communicated with, and if satisfactory the applicant notified. Arriving in New York, she finds a room reseryed for her, baggage taken care of, and every attention and convenience at her disposal. The com fort of a quiet, charming and safe hotel will be appreciated by all women who have traveled without escort. The register of the hotel alreadv shows visitors from Ohio and the West, parties of ladies, and moth ers with young daughters and gentlemen who have lady relatives traveling alone, are anxious to confide them to the care of the women's hotel. Some lady may like to know that applications are addressed to "the manager of the Woman's Hotol, Fourth avenue and 84th New York.

A TROUSSEAU EXTRAORDINARY. Cuban heiress who marries the Italian in in. ister this week, surpasses in fulness and costliness anything known here.

A TIME-HONORED SPECIFIC.
