So business before our Justices. Peace
and quietness still hold their reign :

To-morrow evening memorial services
for "Our recent Dead" will be held at the
Methodist Episcopal Church. All are invited.
Last Saturday a one-sided load of hay
capsized on Main street, to the amuse
ment of lookers-on and the disgust of the
driver.
Three very fine specimens of the tobacco
plant can be seen growing in the window
of L. Freita's cigar store. The plants
are about four feet high and present a very
thrifty appearance. Apropos of these
plants there is a story that a certain gen
tleman of this place came along and after
looking at them for some time, stepped in
to the store to inquire if "those plants were
the kind of which they made Havana ci
gars' which is very fair if true.
Mail reaches the survey corps of the P.

field hack now rather than by the Chardon
conveyance.
Our friend Smith of the firm of Smith &
Marvin lately traded his place off for ci
gars. That's giving real estate a lift some
what unusual.
The new dwelling of Pliny Pratt Esq. is
rapidly approaching completion and will
probably be ready for occupation in the
course of a fortnight.
James Flood, one of the actors in the
fight on State street week before last,
thinks that the account of that affair, as
published in our columns, did him injus
tice. He says that on that occasion he
was not drunk, and only acted in self-
defense. He also says that he has not
drank a glass of liquor in over two years,
and was not inside of Lindsey's groggery
but once or twice in the same length of
time. This last is certainly so much to
his credit. We wish to do no injustice,
and therefore insert the above statements
as they were made to us.
Parker Pillsbury, of Concord, X. H.,
will lecture Thursday evening, Aug. 31st,
at Wilcox Hall. Subject "Why do
nations die." All are invited.
Dr. Johnson, Homeopathic Veterinary
Surgeon, of Cleveland, will be at the

THE BATTLE OF DORKINCi.
John Bull WhiBtlea to Keep Hie
Conrage l a.
I served as gunner's mate
When I was twenty-eight.
That's flftv anno dominis aaro.
And our ship, which was the Spanker,
w ere a-riaing at ner ancnor,
one Sunday mgnt in August you must snow.
II were chewia' of a quid.
Which I ordinary did
O' Sundays, fori think it's sort o' right.
I When our gunner Ben's his name
Kin quite suauemy exclaim,
Ana nis exclamation were, -mow me ugni:--
Savs he. "Mv iollv mates.
I This here Lloyd's paper states
as we're goin' to ngut mem uerman lurrm-eers.
Whereupon we tars, in spite
Of its bein' Sunday night,
Stood up and gave three nearty Kritisn cneers.
Well, we sailed away to meet
I This famous German fleet.
Consarnm' which there'd been no end 01 jaw;
For in six weeks tney nail planned.
And bi'ilt and launched and manned
The nnest fleet a nation ever saw.
We had cruised about on Sunday,
But about six bells on Monday,
When as smooth as any mirror was the water.
Right out on the horizon
Kose a cloua as Diack as pison ;
'Twas tne toe a-steamiu' uown upon our quar
ter.
'Twas all as still as death.
There was not a single breath.
But our admiral wore a smile npon his cheek;
The foe was on our larboard,
But right away out starboard
w as a very uttie tiuy narrer streax.
A-chucklin' werry sly,
Ana a winktu' oi nis eve,
Our admiral gave orders for to run :
And the enemy gave chase,
for tne uermans, as a race,
iave a preierence lor ngnung ten io one.
At seven we felt a whiff:
At eight it blew right stiff;
At nine it was blowing half a gale
But at ten the waves ran higher
Than St. Paul's Cathedral suire.
Ana my language to uescrine tne same ao iau.
We kept a 'lectric light
A-Diirnin' an tne nignt;
But on Tuesday in the morning about three
Mv arunner tin and snoke.
'Darn me if any smoke
is com in' irom tueir cnimney-pots," says ne.
Just then we heard a shout,
Ana our aumirai sang out,
"Send the signal un to wear about and close!"
Then fore and aft we ran.
To his post stood every man,
adu loutier tnan tne storm onr cneers arose.
We neared them and took aim,
Ana tne worn to lire came,
And onr volley down the line of battle roared;
But the German answered not
Not a solitary shot
But ner ensign mitterea uown Dy tne noara.
We was speechless pretty nigh.
As we couldn't make out for why
The sponge they should so quickly up'ards
chuck it:
Till Bismarck we espied .
uangin' pallia o'er tne sine,
Ana juoitxe sitting aown oesiue a Ducket.
All their gunners, all their stokers,
Lay as flat as kitchen pokers,
Ail a-groaning irom tne bottom oi tneir soul ;
For all their precious crew,
Unaccustomed to the Blue,
invalided wnen tne snips began to rou.
And thus the battle ended,
And the broken peace was mended.
And William, when at last he ceased to be,
Died a sadder and a wiser,
A more circumspect old Kaiser,
Ana a member or tne peace societee.
NOTICE. The attention of all who de
sire a good family newspaper is directed to
the follmeina facts in regard to the
PAINESVILLE JOURNAL.
1st. It is the LARGEST PAPER that is
now, or ever has been, published in Lake
county.
id. It contains EIGHT COL UMNS more
matter in each issue than any other paper
in the county.
3d. It presents each week an amount of
reading matter DOUBLE that of any other
one paper, and MORE than that given by
ALL THE OTHER PAPERS of the
county COMBINED.
4th. Its contents are always fresh, inter
esting and varied, its stories new, its arti
cles carefully prepared and its jokes and
miscellany spicy and piquant.
bth. It presents more original matter than
all the other Lake county papers put together,
and has a larger list of contributors among
the ablest writers of the country than any
other paper in Northern Ohio.
To advertisers, the JOURNAL is able to
offer greatly superior advantages,as its pres
ent edition is LARGER than that of ANY
other paper in the county.
Thursday night we had a most refresh
ing rain, and all day Friday the weeping
heavens poured forth their welcome tears
upon the parched and thirsty earth.
Yesterday (Friday) afternoon a team
which was being driven up through Main
street took fright and commenced an ex
hibition of running and kicking which
soon resulted in freeing them from the
cumbersome wagon to which they were at
tached. They ran up through the park
and were finally captured by "Patsy"
Lynch, who succeeded in surrounding
them in a most adroit manner. In the
meanwhile the owner of the horses came
solemnly riding on after bis team in the
wagon, whose impetus was sufficient to
carry it nearly a block before it stopped.
The following letters are now held for
postage at the Post Office in this place:
H. M . Williams, East Concord, X.Y. Geo.
Hargraves & Brother, Detrdit, Michigan.
Mentor avenue Is being graded near the
residence of Judge Bissel. Street Com
missioner Rogers manages to keep him
self busy in his particular line of improvements.
The various districts which have of late
been, burned over are fast being cleared of
the debris and placed in a lit state for fu
ture operations in the way of erecting new
buildings.
Messrs. Garfield and Warner have suc-
I ceeded in recovering the horse and buggy
I which was stolen from them last Friday.
It had been driven to Cleveland and there
I hitched and left by the thief:
Almost an Accidknt. One day this
week our friends E. P. Branch, Horace
Alvord and Arthur Baldwin drove to the
lake for a bath in Its cool, clear waters.
Upon their return, and while descending
a hill, some portion of the harness gave
way and allowed the buggy to come di
rectly upon the horse's heels. The result
was an exhibition of kicking and running
on the part of the horse, and of jumping on
the part of the riders that would have been
entertaining to any one looking on. Be
yond a few slight bruises none of the party
suffered any injury except the ill-effects
which naturally followed from the unac
customed and forced walk of three miles
back home.
One of those witty, slangy street vend
ers appeared on the corner of Main and
St. Clair streets last evening, where he
succeeded in attracting quite a crowd to
listen to his funnyness and to purchase
his wares.
The new reservoir at the upper end of
the Park are now almost finished. A day
or two since while the workmen were . en
gaged in bricking it up the gas post stand
ing- near by fell into the excavation but
no one was injured.
At a Sunday school pic-nic held not long
since some boys built a fire at which to
roast some corn.. Forty-eight lengths of
fence are now missing from around that
corn field and a new conundrum is being
asked "Who set the fence on fire?"
Disturbance. People who go to places
of public amusement or instruction have a
right to insist upon a free and undisturbed
enjoyment of the entertainment. But this
right is frequently ignored by those who
ought to know better. At the concert the
other evening a large portion of the au
dience were annoyed by the noise and
loud conversation of two or three little
boys who seated themselves upon the
stairs leading to the gallery and amused
tnemselves throughout the evening by
eating peanuts and making themselves a
general nuisance. One of these boys was
named Will Warner and another we be
lieve rejoiced in the patronymic of Johnson
shristain name unknown. The others
we could not recognize. Any one of these
boys are old enough to know better and if
they will not behave ought to be excluded
from any place of public entertainment.
Through one of those mistakes which
will occur in spite of all precautions, the
advertisement of Dr. Tillotson found its
way into our columns last week without
having been corrected. We regret it and
trust that no such oversight may occur
again.
Our thanks are due to Mrs. Kelly, of
Concord, for a basket of most beautiful
yellow peaehes. Such remembrances are
always welcome, and especially so when
so genial a messenger as our friend Ed.
of thefEmpire Freight Line, is chosen to
bring tbein.
As Dr. Luce, of Kirtland, was returning
home on Monday evening last, when near.
ly opposite the residence of Mr. Clapp, m
Mentor.he was run into by a carriage com.
iug from the opposite direction, and the
shafts and one of the wheels of his buggy
were badly broken.
Clarke, of the Advertiser, got bit by a
professional dead-beat, who travels under
the name of Lieut. Davis, and who pre
tends to be a temperance lecturer. Hav
ing become a martyr for the general bene
fit of the press he has a right to complain,
and he does so in his last issue.
Real Estate Transfers. Since our
last list was published the changes in the
ownership of Real Estate have been but
few. It has been too hot perhaps. The
following list comprises all that have been
placed upon record :
Amanda M. Wilder, to Watson H. Brown,
Willoughby, village lot acre, $800.
Peary Bosworth, Admin., to Helen Hul-
bert, Madison, village lot 28-100 acre,
$430.
Wm. Taylor, to C. C. Carter, LeRoy, 2
acres, $475.
Jobnatban Sprague, to Otis & J. A.fWar-
ner, LeRoy, 30 and 98-200 acres, $1000.
Theodore Martindale, to Charlotte M.
Sherwood, Painesville, village lot $1000.
S. W. Smart, to R. C. Bates, Willoughby,
village lot acre, $2400.
Leonard R. Bringham, to Lydia A. Carter,
Painesville, 80-100 acres, $1300.
S. Wire, Sheriff, to D. M. Sanborn, Kirt
land, village lot, $250.
a hearty welcome to the coming multi
tude who were to be their guests again
while they raised their lofty tops like so
many spires, reared by the hand of God
himself, ever pointing upward to the throne
of their creator. At eleven o'clock the
surrounding cliffs were awakened from
their slumbers by the opening songs of
praise until they resounded, as if giving
back an echoing answer to the choir,
"Firm as a rock Thy truth shall stand,
God of eternal power."
After prayer and thanksgiving were of
fered for the privileges of the hour, the
Ilev. Mr. Merryfield of Indiana was
introduced who delivered the morning
discourse. After the conclusion of the
morning services, all repaired to the table
standing near at hand, on which was
spread a bountiful repast, supplied from
the baskets which had been tilled by the
good wives that morning before starting.
The afternoon sermon was delivered by
the Rev. Mr. Wood, of Garrettsville, Ohio.
On Sunday a greater number were in at
tendance than on Saturday.
Rev. A. AVilson, of Kent, Ohio, preached
in the forenoon and Rev. M. Canfield, of
Xorwalk, delivered the afternoon sermon.
Mr. Wilson, in his discoursejncidentally
mentioned the work that was being ac
complished by the denomination in the
building of the Buchtel College, which is
now in process of erection at Akron, O.
He said that John R. Buchtel, from whom
the college received its name, and to
whose personal efforts we were greatly in
debted for the success of the enterprise,
was present, and gave some inter
esting facts in relation to the matter.
After the conclusion of the morning
service Mr. Buchtel was introduced, who
proceeded to explain the character, aim,
and condition of this College, expressing
his intention to devote his life and his for
tune to the success of the enterprise. The
building is located on a hill or elevated
spot of ground overlooking the city of
Akron. It will be four stories high, and
cost about $120,000. Although it is built
by the Universalists, yet it is intended to
be open to all, and free from denomina
tional bias, and it is hoped that it will be
an institution that will be useful to socie
ty and an honor to the projectors. About
$2,000 were donated to the college fund by
those present. At the elose of the after
noon service several persons were
formally received into the ehurch before
dispersing. A committee of five, consist
ing of S. P. Miller and L. D. Carver, of
Chardon; I.C. Hodges, of Concord: B. S.
Upson, of Kirtland and J. Fowlerof Wil
loughby, were appointed to make the nec-.
essary arrangements for the next annual
meeting, to be held at the same place next
year.
The office of the Advertiser had a narrow
escape from destruction by fire on last
Thursday evening. A lamp suspended
over one of the cases fell and scattered the
burning oil over the room. Fortunately
however, the flames were .extinguished be
fore any serious damage was done.
For the further accommodation of those
interested, we republish this week our
list of agricultural fairs, ' for this State,
and shall continue to do so uutil all have
been held. As the table is carefully re
vised each week those which have taken
Dlace being withdrawn it is convenient
for reference.
Otheu Unfortunates. Our crop of
burglaries does not seem to share the fate
of our agricultural products ihe drouth
don't effect the supply. Last Saturday
night a burglar was captured while af
fecting an entrance into the drug store of
Mr. Hathaway, near the Depot. While
on their way up up town, however, bis
captors were attacked by two men, and
the erring one rescued from their clutch
es. He evidently had thoroughly learned
the old adage of "try, try again," for, not
withstanding his first adventure had so
signally miscarried, he proceeded un
dauntedly on his way, and successively
entered the dwellings of Dr. E. B. Root
and M. B. Huntington, in which places he
succeeded, however, in securing nothing ot
value. Tuesday morning he was discov
ered once again, and for the second time
arrested. Justice Harris bound him
over to the Court of Common Pleas.

The drouth in this section is almost un
precedented. Wells that never before
have failed and springs that always, until
now, have bubbled over with cool, fresh
water, alike have succumbed to the con
tinued dry weather to the great incon
venience of those dependent Jipon them
for the accustomed supply of "Adam's
ale."
Someone went down to the track of the
Ashtabula Railroad and told the men at
work that the Painesville and Youngs-
town Road were paying twenty-five cents
a day more than they were receiving. The
gang whs left work and came here, only
to find that prices were the same, are now
looking with anxious care for their
friendly intormant.
Willoughby Collegiate Institue.
The Catalogue of this school for 1871 has
been laid upon our desk. We notice that
many important changes have lately been
made in its management, all of which are
marked improvements. By no means the
least of these is the return to the olden
name, which heads this article. As it now
stands no false colors are held out to those
desiring to attend, but the claim advanced
is simply for that which the school really
is, a collegiate institute. The principal
ship has been given to L. O. Lee, ot Ober-
lin.i Mr. Lee was formerly Principal of
the Union Sehools in Willoughby, where
he acquired a reputation for discipline and
thoroughness, which is an earnest of the'
work that he will do in bis present posi
tion. The next term commences on Tues
day the 29th. inst. and we have no doubt
but that the patronage extended to this
institution will be fully what its merits
entitle it to recieve.

We had always supposed our grafters
were so honorable in their deal and so
careful in their work that no-one could ev
er be found who would doubt either. Nev
ertheless one of the numerous throng that
leave here every spring and scatter over
the country seems to have got into trouble,
as may be seen by the following, which we
clip from one of our exchanges, the Wa
tertown (K. Y.) Reformer. We trust that
there is some misunderstanding about the
matter which an explanation from Mr.
Durfee will clear up :
A SLANDEROUS REPORT CORRECTED.
"Some two or three weeks past,a gentle
man whose name is 1. . Durfee, of
Painesville, Ohio, who has been grafting
apple trees in our town the past spring,
for some as yet unexplained reason, has
put in circulation a very false and slan
derous report against one of his employ
ers, Mr. Joshua S. Loomis. The neighbor
hood has been unusually agitated thereby,
and Mr. Loomis' family and friends feel
very much injured by its slanderous ten
dency. It is necessary for us (to answer
our purpose) to publish the details of the
base fabrication, for it is our design in
this communication, only to give the facts
about Mr. Loomis, "molesting" the scions"
(as the report alleges) in as brief a state
ment of facts as we possibly can. '
We were requested by Mr. Loomis to
examine the trees he had grafted, (eight in
number,) upon which Mr. Durfee had set
184 scions. Every stalk was carefully ex
amined and only three scions were found
"missing or misplaced" one of these was
in a tree where his horse was pastured,
and one was in a tree where the hens ha
bitually rooEt.
There was no appearance, as we could
discover, of Mr. Loomis' disturbing or
taking out of place, "one scion in every
stem," (that thereby he might defraud or
deceive Mr. Durfee,) as be had been ma
liciously and falsely charged.
We place the above facts before his
neighbors, who are weekly readers of the
Reformer, (of which they can satisfy
themselves by a like examination,) in
such a light as they will feel called upon
to do what justice Mr. Loomis and the
quietude of the neighborhood demands.

Universalis meeting;.
Dear Journal: At this heated season
of the year, when the burdens and worry
of business seem to fall so heavily upon
us, one would fain escape for a time the
toils and turmoils of every day life, and
seek "some happy spot" "where free from
toil and care a weary soul might rest." To
all in search of such a spot I would rec
ommend the Little Mountain. Here you
will find a sure retreat, a haven of rest.
where you can enjoy the world or the wil
derness, society or solitude. Should vou
stop at the Lake View House you will find
an hospitable and Obligingpiost and a place
where everything is ordered to your liking.
Should you wish to take up your abode at
the Stocking House, you will find the pro
prietor an agreeable and accomodating
Landlord.
The many advantages of this locality be
gin to be appreciated, not only as a quiet
and healthful retreat in which to spend
the summer months, but also as a delight-
ful place for holding pic-nics, grove meet
ings and other occasional out-door gather
ings. On Saturday, August 10th, the mem
bers of the 29th Regiment of the Ohio In
fantry held a pic-nic in the grove near the
Stocking House. It was well attended by
the 20th boys and their friends. Speeches
were made by Col. J. F. Morse and others
and everything passed off as pleasurably
as the heart could wish. The festivities
of the day wound up with a social dance
at the Stocking House in the evening.
The annual Basket Meeting ot the West
ern Reserve Association of Universalists
was also held at this Jplace on Saturday
and Sunday the 10th andjttnh ana not
withstanding the dust and heat were op
pressive n very respectable number were
present, including many from a distance.
At an early hour on Saturday the faith
tul of that persuasion bringing their loaves
and fishes with them, began to assemble
around the stand previously erected for
the occasion, beneath the sheltering old
pines on the west side of the mountain. It
was oil the spot where the society have
held their meetings the years before and
around which clustered many near and
dear associations. A most fitting spot
those grand old pines, the embodiment of
strength and uprightness, seemed to wave
The Entertainment.
The readings and concert given for the
benefit of the St. James Church Sabbath
School Library at Childs Hall on Tuesday
evening last was a decided success. The
audience was large and appreciative, and
the various parts of the programme were
well rendered by the performers. The
duet, "I know that my love," as given by
Misses Root and Barstow, was particularly
fine, as was also the song "Onward, Bon
nie Boat," by Misses Root and Fleming.
The piano duet bv Misses Palmer and
Barstow was well executed, but unfor
tunately the instrument provided was a
very poor one, and the performers could
hardly do justice to their well-known abil-
ities. The song, "O loving heart, trust
on," by Prof. Hamlin, was beautifully ren
dered so well, indeed, that an enthusi
astic encore compelled his reappearance.
A most beautiful bouquet was also thrown
as a reward.
The readings by Prof. Hall were fine
and showed not only a high power of ap
preciation for his author, but a power of
adaptation which is rarely excelled.
Prof. Hamlin and those who assisted
him may well feel pleased with the result
of their, exertions, for no pleasanter enter
tainment has taken place for a long time.
On Tuesday evening next, as will bp
seen by an advertisement in another
column, a similar entertainment will be
given in Willoughby for the benefit of the
Sabbath school library of Grace Church
in that place. Our neighbors will most
certainly have a rare treat, and, we have
no doubt, will avail themselves of so
pleasant an opportunity to pass a delight
ful evening.
which nanks.it on the east is the quarry
from which the Mormons procured the
stone for their first temple in the west a
structure which still remains in a good
state of preservation upon the highest
point in the village of Kirtland. whose lo
cation combines at once the "high hill and
the low vale" which would have delighted
the ancient mason. This quarry overlies
the shale which abounds all through this
country forming the bottom of all the
streams and of the lake itself, and runs
directly under the mountain, a quarry
having been opened on the west side.
This, then is the beginning of the emi
nence. And now we follow it back by a
very gentle ascent until the more abrupt
part of the mountain is reached. Here the
rock changes t o a conglomerate or pud
ding stone, at once beautiful and'interest-
mg, which continues nearly to the top.
The top of the mountain is composed, like
the base, of sandstone. Now the question
arises "why is this thus?" Our compan
ion says "oh, it must have been thrown
up by a convulsion of nature." But this
cannot be, because there are no indica
tions of shale above the sandsfone. Were
a mountain now to be thrown up any
where along the lake shore, it would show
on all sides, first a strata of shale over
one hundred feet thick, secondly, a strata
of fossiliferous lime stone, and then
another strata of shale, but no sandstone
and no conglomerate. I leave this point
here for wiser men to discuss. The en
tire face of the conglomerate, rising in jag
ged and huge masses, shows everywhere
that the waves have rippled and raved
against them for a long period.of time. It
is altogether a very curious formation, and
we do not wonder that gentlemen of wealth
are being attracted to it as one of the most
delightful sites for a place of public resort
during the summer to be fonnd any where
in Ohio. One of our companions to its
summit was a gentleman of wealth and
taste from Cleveland who is contempla
ting its purchase. The base of the moun
tain abounds in beautiful springs, and re
port says that some of them have a very
strong tincture of Saratoga about them.

meteorology.
NO. II.
Whether the atmosphere that surrounds
our earth is boundless or limited by space
we are not able to determine; nor is it
necessary that we should know. We can
weigh it and investigate its properties just
as well without that knowledge. Its weight
is immense. The number of pounds, or
even tons, is greater than the mind can
possibly comprehend. We have learned
that a column of mercury thirty inches
high, or a column of water thirty-three feet
high, is exactly balanced by a column of
air having the same base. So, if we wish
to calculate the weight of air we would
compute the number of cubic feet in our
globe and the number of cubic feet in
another globe having a diameter sixty
inches or sixty-six feet greater. The
difference between the solid contents of
our earth and the greater globe would be
the number of cubic feet in a sea of mer
cury thirty inches deep, or of water thirty
three feet deep, covering the whole surfac
of the earth and consequently having the
same base of the atmosphere. Now, if we
multiply the solid contents of this sea of
mercury by the weight of a cubic foot of
mercury, or the solid contents of the sea
of water by the weight of a cubic foot of
water, we shall have the weight of the at
mosphere. We leave the calculation to any
of your readers who love to deal in large
numbers. One of the properties of the air
is to press in all directions alike; and we
perceive its weight only when it is re
moved from one side of an object so that
the pressure is all on the other side. If a
person of ordinary size should prostrate
himself upon the ground and by any means
remove all the air from under him, he
would sustain a pressure of more than six
tons. If every particle of air should be
removed from within the strongest build
ing in Painesville the outside pressure
would be sufficient to crush it into a heap
of nuns; or, if the outside pressure should
all be removed the expansion of the air
within would burst its walls asunder.
The atmosphere is the great receptacle of
moisture, drinking it up from everything
over which it passes and dispensing it
again to the thirsty earth. The amount of
moisture that the air may contain depends
upon its temperature. As its temperature
increases its particles expand. Hence
the hotter the air is the more water it will
hold. When a volume of air, at any given
temperature, becomes saturated, or con
tains all the water it will hold, if by
any means it is suddenly cooled
down, it will not be capable of
holding so much, and it must part
with some of it. So if a volu me of air at a
high temperature and saturated, meet and
commingle with a cold volume of air, its
capacity for moisture would be lessened,
and a part of its moisture would be per
ceptible in the form of rain, and this is the
way rain is produced. But not so the
dew; we often hear people speak of the
falling dew. Now dew does not fall upon
vegetation as many suppose, but it is de
posited or formed right on the leaves and
grass, where it glisten's in the morning.
Everything becomes more or less heated
during the day, and when the sun sinks to
rest and everything begins to take
it cool, vegetation parts with its heat very
rapidly, and is soon cooler than the sur
rounding atmosphere, so that when the air
comes in contact with it, it is suddenly
cooled down below its capacity for retain
ing its moisture and a part of it is deposi
ted on the plant in the form of dew.
We often hear people say "the pitcher
sweats," believing that the water oozes
out through the pores of the vessel. This
is erroneous; the water on the outside of
the pitcher filled with cold water on a hot
day is dew,and formed in the same way as
the dew upon the grass at night. The same
is perceived upon bringing any cool metal
into a warm room; it is soon covered with
moisture. J. A. Wood,
such as I imagine the American Eagle
casts upon the graves of dead rebels, and
asked :
- "Where is your quartermaster? Send
for him at once."
That officer being present stepped lor
ward and saluted.
"I am the quartermaster, sir."
"How much sugar did you draw yester
day?"
Wiih a hesitating look he replied, "Three
barrels, sir."
"And how much coffee?"
'Two barrels, sir."
The General looked at him a moment, as
a doctor, lance in hand, might look at a
veteran carbuncle, and said:
"Sir, the sugar you must, give to the men,
do you understand?' (and turning to the
non-commissioned officers) "to the men.
But the coffee, quartermaster, you will
take back to the place where you got it
and say General Seigel sends this back
and says he wants good coffee or none."
Then turning to onr captain he said: "And
you, captain; ' who sent for you in this
pizziness? (He always fell bnek on his
native accent when excited.) When I send
for officers I send for officers; when I send
for men I send for men. I want no other
interference. You can go to your quarters?"
Then taking off his hat and fanning him
self a moment he said:
My men, last week there was it lot of
poor coffee sent to my command, and I
will not have my soldiers murdered mit
the d n pean (bean) stuff. Good-bye,
my men. Good-bye, my good soldiers."
And raising the reins to his little bay
mare, General Seigel with his staff dashed
off over the hills to pursue his inquiries
and issue the same orders to other quar
termasters in his command:

The year 1871 bids fair to be one of the most
important and fruitful in our political history.
In it will lie shaped the great issues on which
the Presidential election of 1S7S must turn. It
will be an era of new political energy iu the
South, which, for the nrst time in twelve years,
comes unfettered into a nat ional canvass; and an
era of cenfldent hopes to the Democratic party
everywhere. The snperiuanuated issues on
which the Radical parly have stood are pass
ing out of polit ics, ami the lilundering imbecili
ty and profligate e.vtravanauces of General
Grant s administration need only to be faithfully
exKsed to turn the tide of public feeling

AS A VfiltlCLfU Oh ..
The World (now in the elvenlh year of its ex
istence) has always held the first rank among
metropolitan journals. Its news on evcrv topic
of interest, polit ical, commercial, literarv, so
cial, domestic and foreign, is always fresh,
abundant, full of current intelligence, always
rendered with such promptitude and spirit that
the paper has a large and increasing circulation
among political opponents lor its superiority in
these respects.
AS AN ORGAN OP OPINION
he World is fearless, trenchant, indomitable:
ardent in its advocacy of sound Democratic
principles; upsparing in its denunciation of
political abuses and corruption ; and not conflii
lug its discussions to mere Hilitics, it takes a
wide ranire. touches upon a trreat variety of sub
jects, and aims to lie a safe guide of public opin
ion on un iauucs which eugage puiiiic niieiiuou.
It gives conspicuous prominence to trade, com
merce and tiuance, and on these topics invites
comparison with any other journal published at
tne commercial metropolis.

Fair View Mountain.
Jiditor .Journal i was pleased to see
your brief notice of Fair View Mountain,
because, "having been there to Bee," I
think it deserving not only a notice in
print but a very critical examination, es
pecially by geologists. It is really a very
interesting promontory. Its elevation is
not so high that it deserves the designn
tion of mountain, but rising as it does iu
the midst of a plain, with no connecting
hills on any side it becomes a subject
worthy the study of the student of nature.
The entire face of the mountain is covered
with a beautiful growth of chestnut, white
wood, ouk, etc. The ascent is by no means
diflicult, if one keeps by the track worn
by the nocks und herds that have sought
its summit. The view from the summit is
very line indeed, alike of farms and forests,
villages and the "miNulled sea" of Kile.
At the base of the uiuuuluiu, neur 1 lie mud

Dear Journal: To reach you in time
for publication this must be short and
mailed at once.
Having just rolled my blanket and
packed my blenkers (a term applied by
the boys to our cups and pans, originating
from seeing General Blenker's bummers
always using them when they should have
been using their guns), an orderly rode up
to my tent and said, "General Seigel wishes
to speak with you." I came to the position
of a soldier on seeing the General and
staff riding towards my quarters. They
halted, and the following conversation
took place:
"Young man," said the General, "I will
speak to you. How do you like soldier
ing r
"Well enough, General, when I see the
laugh come in."
"When is that, eh?"
"When I see the rebels running, sir."
"Good, good exactly. How do you like
your rations your bread is it good?"
"Yes, sir, since we came to the Iront,"
"And the pork?"
"Very good."
"What about sugar?"
"First rate, what we get; none too much
though."
Here the captain of our company and
some of the non-commissioned officers
came out to see and hear what was going
on; and upon my saying the sugar was
Bhort the captain cleared his throat (as
men usually uo wnen about to tell a
"whopper") and commenced to speak,
when a quick motion of impatience from
the General shut him off like a molasses
tap in midwinter. Then to me again:
"Your sugar, you say, is short, and your
coffee, too, I suppose?"
"No, sir; we have always had pleuty."
"And good, too, eh?"
"Yes, sir. I have been in the service
nearly two years, and until this morning
have never had reason to complain."
Here the captain could hold in no longer
(he was just like a fire-cracker, fizzling to
go off), aud said:
"General, our rutions nre all right. This
fellow is perhaps a ioor judge."
"Ahl Then you drew your coffee this
morning, eh?"
"Yes, sir," said the captain, "and I hud
no fault to find none whatever, sir."
Tiie General gave him u look of contempt
to warm the building from below the first
floor. The whole structure is to be painted
when repairs are complete. Ibid.
A lad named Newell, about thirteen
years old, was seriously and probably fa
tally injured by jumping from the accom
modation train at Amboy on Wednesday
evening last. It is said that Conductor
Witherell did not stop at the station, as be
supposed no one was aboard for that point.
The boy's father, Prof. Newell, of Green-
ville College, is somewhere in the West.
His mother at the time of the accident
was visiting relatives at Kingsville. Zoui.
