Some wag reported on our streets one
morning that friend Magee, in conse
quence of his continued ill health, had
determined to resign the office of Au
ditor, during the late session of Com
missioners. A meeting of th Know

held in our town; and we are inform

eleven days in balloting, at the rate of

any blame upon the Democratic mem

published in another column, shows
that this .is a perfect "stall;" and if the

have ever contended that two great par

slow as we are, we will own up, when

when we confess our belief that Ayer's

wuhin the range of our acquaintance
hitherto. For those who are not cog

We copy tha followinc coramuniot-
lion in regard to tbe opening busidets
of tbe M. & C. R. R. and the prospect
of gieat mineral wealth in Vinton Co.
from the Daily Scioto OazcUt of the
i;h insi:
As every thing ronnecltd with the
tfubjrct of Minerals is deserving atten
tion, I would state briefly, toot the pro
duction of Iron at the several Furnace
on and near the line of the M. qr C.
R, R. in Vinton County, is in stsady
progress. Tbe excellent qualty of this i.
ron has already secured for it a prefer
ence in the surrouuding markets, lea
ding to an active demand for it, and
stimulating to new enterprises in this
importrnl Dranih of domestic manufac
tures. Other "Furnace Sites"are in con
leinplalioii, in Vinton county, by which
the production of iron is s con to be
greatly augmented.
At Hainden, where several of tbe Fur
naces will have their connection with
the Railroad, there is at present a large
amount of freight accunmlated.io which
daily accessions will be made.
The opening of the M.& C. R. R. to
Hamdeo. and its speedy extension to
Judge Murdock s, "Big Sand Furnace,"
and Alheus, is afordiug the desired la
cility for tu transportation of the Iron
arid Coal of Vinton county to the most
favorable markets. The train of to-day,
upon which the writer came from Ham
den to this city iucluded five car loads
of Iron, 3 of lumber, 2 of Coal, and ' ol
Wheat. I learned that the Iron was des
tined for Cleveland, now becomeingan
important market for that article.
The rilizeus of Chillicothe, as well
as tbe fr.ends.of the M. & C. R. R., are
indebted to S. W, Ely, Esq., for the
first Viutoo county coal brought upon
the Railroad to this place. The favorable
situation of bis coal lands, aad tbe am
ple preparation he baa made for opera
ting extensively, to say nothing of the
superior quolity of his coal, will soon
lead to a more familiar ; acquaintance
with Mr. Ely's demonstrates in this
busmtss.
Other enterprises of the same kind on
the line of the R. B. east of Hamden,
are in a state of forwardness and give
promise of exteasive operations i.i the
coal business.
Tbe great Mineral wealth of Vinton
county iiasyetbut partially uuderslood
aud will require many years fully to de
vei op. Since the location of tbe M. &
C. R. R. through the Miueral region the
attention of capitalists has been and
continues to be directed to Vintou coun
ty as the most inviting field for profita
ble investment in Southern Ohio.

"The last counsel we received from bim

still in boyhood just commencing years
of wandering a od hardship, received a
parting grasp of his pure hand with these
