EDWABD8, Chairman. rMflinctf Kcloroi-^peflmfii j jlaiiplct oi Uralu. Our grjuiger friend Samuel Smith, the well known ex-jailor of Ohio county, hu laid on oar table three specimen earn* plea pi grain raised. on his farm near Clinton, in tk|ta county, one of Barley, one ot Wheat and one of Oata. The Wheat ia of 1he Fahte Variety, the Oata of the Poland variety and the Barley of the kind commonly grown in thta section of county. The Wheat is said by our mi'lleri to be a very aujwrior growth, the heads are long, heavy and decidedly well filtfd 4i^1iUfe?^>ldmp grains. TheOata are just splendid, the heads being as much as fen inches long and very full of good nixed grains. We should judge that about ten sheaves would yield a bushel, and give as much as fifty bushels to the acre. The Barldjn-ia of large growth abd well filled with fine plump grains. We hare not aeen.any where finer specimens of the leading creals than the samples before us. Our friend Smith ia one of the grangers who does not hanker after large landed estates;Tia rather believea in a little fartn well'tilled. He has some eighty acrea of our fertile Ohio county land with a solid limestone base, which insures a strength and durability of soil equal to thf heaviest drafts which intelligent cultiva tion can make on it. This farm he man ages with the band of a master, always procuring the most fruitful varieties of grains, which give the best returns the character of the seasons will allow. The specimens before us are remarka ble fdr the aeaaon, for be it remembered that although the growing season of this year has been exceptional in some re npecta, yet on the whole it haa not fulfilled tbe^expectationaof the farmer*. Speaking of this, we are reminded that titer* is now a perfect dearth of pasture*, they are literally dried up. There is complaint that the showers have been ao fitful in many portiona of the country that the corn crop and the potatoes Lave I euflfered severely. j Southward, below Matamoras, on the river, we are told that the corn will not average ten bushels to the acre, no matter what the remainder of the season maybe. Though the deficiency may be more than made up by the abundant yield of more favored localities, it will not put money in the pocketa of the luck lea* grangers in the districts where the heavens have been as a sheet of brase over their lan guishing crops. The season, as we have said, haa been peculiar, there has been a superabundance of water, there haa been drouth, there have been storms of wind, hail aud rain, forming for the whole country a climatic moeaic which is phe nomenal in character above the average of past sewona. " Still our enormous breadth of coun try, our great variety of soil and climate, our immense range of products, with tbe vastly Increased acreage of plant ing, have made the year in the aggregate of productiveness, one which Is fully represented by the magnificent harveet samples which our granger friend haa laid before us. Fifteen GlrlN Foleoned ? One Dead Mod Another i?j*nK Cl?Vilawd,vO., July^.?-A peculiar cue of poisoning came to light here this evening. Lut Wednesday fifteeu girls employed in Madame Homers' dressmak ing establishment bad milk for dinner. AU of them drank of it, sod during the afternoon they were alt more or leas nick, including the Madame. None of them, howerer, was so ill u not to be able to return to work the next day except two aisters named Marv and Nottie Divitt. Thursday both of these were dangerously ill. Physicians were summoned and prononnced tbem cases of poisoning. Each of the girls lingered till ibis afternoon, when Marv died in great misery. The other is still alive, but in a precarious condition. Both are believed to be cae^e of arsenic poisoning. Cor oner Isom baa taken the casts in charge and ordered an analysis of the milk to be made. Bzllairx Locaub.?The Board of Ed ncation has purchased a lot adjoining the M. E. Church, upon which a school house for the colored population will be built next month. Farmers in this near vicinity are busy (>utting up their oats, which are beiog loused in splendid order and condition, aa is also the hay. The 8treet Railwav Company during this month just made expenses. This month has been the dulleat for travel over thia road since the enterprise went into operation. Mr. Robert Neal, a man of experience in horse-flesh, is erecting a first-class livery stable in the vicinity of the C. A P. K. K. depot. Michael Tucker, of this city, an em ployee of the blast furnace here, wu dis covered yesterday morning Iving dead in close proximity to the C. A P. R. R. track about one mile above here, considerably rut and bruised about the head and body, wbich.coD&ruu the supposition that he was killed by the pAssenger train which arrived here from Pittsburgh at 8:3-5 Monday evening. It seem* that Tucker, about 7 o'clock that evening, crosaed over on Benson's ferry, much intoxicated, and carrying with him a half gallon of the ?'fluid," which was found yeeterday morn ing near the ferrv containing yet a small portion of the "kill me quick." About 8:15 p. m., and only about eighteen min utes before the arrival of the down train, one of the street car conductora perceived Tucker windiog hta way staggering to ward Bellaire along the track of the C.a P. Railroad, which was the last seen of Tucker alive. Neither the engineer or fireman have any knowledge of the accident, but it la supposed bv every one that Tucker, being considerably atupified, eat down and perhape fell asleep on a cross-tie, when be wu struck by the passing train, unnoticed by the engineer, on account of the darkneu and misty weiuher lut even ing, and thereby met his untimely end. The coroner's jury which wu sum moned about 9 o'clock yeeterday morn ing, rendered a verdict that Michael Tucker came to hla death by coming in contact with a train of care. The de* oeaaed leaves a wife and four children in very moderate circumstances. PEK*0!?? AHB.THWU*;. ,u<pectlt wu the witneaaea. jsr. sktc esses? have M h?lldot?n tom?lo? lf jooajn^ Haiti* Smith."

What la called the American colony >n Paris oonaista of aboqt, 2.000 '??'???? large proportion of them frs^tbeHouth A great many of them mjgbt*Ce regarded almost a. permanent resident. A good 1, number ol them are people ol limited means, who find that they can much cheaper here than in an American cit, that they have concluded to stay. One ol these remarked to me to-daj "i can live better in Paris on $3,000 per annum than 1 could in New Jork on 000 " He then proceeded to detail the difference. In New Vork he would be regarded as nobody unless be owned or rented a brown-stone bouse ?' f'? $4,000 to $6,000 per ?????? ^ could obtain a suite of elegant aparte menu*, in a fashionable neighborhood, at from $800 to $1,000 per annum and make u good an appearance as any one elre in his sphere. In New York he would have to pay $10 per week for a coachman, whilst here he conld engage a landau, with a fine pair of horses, and a1 liveried footman thrown in? to be always at the reasonable call of his family, for $12 to $15 per week. Then be aaid be could clothe himself and family at one half the expenae, and much better, than he could in New York; that servant hire waa not half the coat, and the service bet ter ; that there were always amusements here at moderate coat, and a cab at call to take him and family home at all b'oura of the night for two franca; whilat in New York aucb a luxury would coat $5. Then there waa. little or none of the troubles of housekeeping in Paris, as a family can be fed cheaper than it can feed itself,* if satisfied with French living. But, he remarked, an American can never feel contented or comfortable in Paris until he goea to houaekeeping and orders bis own food, snd prescribes the mode ol cooking it. A Frenchman loves the table d'hote, but it is an abomination to the American. As soon aa they get under their own roofa they all fall back to the American mode of living, and luxuriate in griddle cakes, muffins, hot rolls and buckwheat cakes, all of which a Parisian would regard as poison. They ezorciae the horrible French pattiea. roast and stuff their chickens instead of broiling or frying them, serve up their salad without oil, and let those who love oil oil it; they eat their peas and beans and potatoea with their meat, and mix things generally just as they did at home. Ther know exactly what they are eating, and no longer abut their eves and swal low whatever la given them, without knowing very often whether it is fish, flesh or fowl. When an American gets under bis own roof he is happy in Paris, and the ladies especially become attached to it. In abort, he maintained that an income of $3,000 per annum would enable a man here to keep hia family in as good a poaition in polite society as could be done at a cost of $10,000 in New York ; that there were certain expenses neces sary to position that were not required here, and that a fine showing can be made ofl of a limited puree.

Chancellor Haven, who was'a. pas senger on the ateamer City of, Chester, from New York, and waa not sea-si ek^ has written a paper on the subject of sea sickness for the Byraouiq^orfkrv Chiiii-. tian Adiucale, in which he says: "My theory of sea sickness requires first that you should know the cause.

H. McVicker is not an unlooked for event among bis friends, although it is a well known fact that he has had good paying seasons at his theatre since 1861^ and that latterly he haa been doing ex cellently. The real cause of the catastrophe is the fact that in 1872 he went on the bond of David A. Gage, then City Treasurer, Jjiat in 1874 Gage turned .out a defaulter to the aiuonnt of over half a million dollars, and that the lapse of time has buried or ruined all.the other bondsmen except one, and left McVicker to bear the heavy load almost alone. A judgment was recently obtained in the CoU?ja,against the bondsmen, and the matter was ap pealed and is now in Court at heavy costa to the defendants. The legacy of half a million of debt to his descendants was not to be thought of, ao the manager gave way to the pressure and joined the innu merable caravau whose names figure in the books of the Register in Bankruptcy. The theatre will, it ia understood, be run by a provisional assignee, under the direction of McVicker, and with Edwin Booth and Mrs. McVicker, who haa a large fortune of her own, to furnish the sinews. McVicker will not retire into the deptha of poverty, but will avoid paying any amount of the heavy judg ment, aa that ia bis only unsecured lia bility. Hllefltonenon the Komi to Health The recovery of digestion and the re sumption of activity by the liver, bowels and kidneys are milestones which mark our progress on the road to health. They speedily become perceptible when IJostet tar's Stomach Bitters is used by the inva lid. Nothing so sorely aud expeditiously consumes the distance to the desired goal. As no bodily fnnction can suffer interrup tion without impairing the general health of the system, so the system can never ac quire perfect vigor, health's synonym, un til that fnnction be actively resumed. Take, for instance, digestion, a suspension of which is invariably rectified by the Bit ter*. If the organs upon which it devolves grow weak, biliousness, constipation, head ache, poverty of the blood, and a hundred other symptoms supervene, which indicate unmiiudcably the baneful general influ ence of dyspepsia; The disappearance of all these symptoms through the use of the Bitters shows with what> thoroughness -it removes their cause. eodiw DIED.
