We understand the reason of the non-convic'

The Clyde Baxk Swindl. The Detroit
Tribune says: 4 i
It tarns out that the originators of what is
known as the Clyde Bank, of Clyde, Ohio,
through which agency a large number of Cana
dians were recently swindled out of about $-:0,-000,
were Wm. Perry and George Ward. The
latter we know 'nothing of, but Perry is the in
dividual who figured with Joe. Dows in at
tempting to resuscitate the old wild cat bank or
Pontiac last year. He was detected in what
was alleged to be a terrible piece of rascality,
and was obliged to move to Canada, "so quick
as never was."
A few days ago we dropped into the Drug
Store of Dr. E. Dillon fc Son, when we were
surprised at the large and splendid stock of
goods they have on hand. ' Not that we had not
been there before, but this time we were shown
through the establishment. From celler to gar
ret, up stairs and down, the whole store is Ut
terly packed fulL Almost anything wished for
may be found at this establishment. Ten
thousand different articles are sold by this firm.
Go and see for yourself.
We observe our Congressman, General It. P.
Buckl&nd, has been placed on the important
committee of Banking and Currency. Associa
ted with him are Messrs. Pomeroy, of New York,
Hooper of Massachusetts, Culver of Pennsyl
vania, Harding of Kentucky, Lynch of Maine,
Defrees of Indiana, Randall of Pennsylvania,
Hubbard of West Virginia.
On Militia, the General is in company with
Messrs. Smith of Kentucky, Harding of Illi
nois, Hale of New York, Noell of Missouri,
Phelps of Missouri, Farquhar of Indiana, Per
ry of Michigan and Thayer of Pennsylvania.
The Sandusky Regitter, in copying the clos-
log paragraph of our item relating to the burg
ularious attempt upon our County Treasury,
makes an error. It puts "county " for "cou ntry,"
in the sentence "Our country is full of despera
does," Ac. In fact, this county is probably as
free from such characters as any other in tho
State; but it is everywhere manifest that crime
is more abundant and impudent throughout
the country than ever before. Another fact is
evident, namely, that these characters, like other
men of enterprise, will seek those localities for
their operations, where there is least vigilance
on the part of the police force, and avoid such
sections as are strongly fortified against them.
Every community ought to bear this fact in
mind, and act accordingly.

A New Safe.
We have been informed that the Commission
ers of Sandusky-County have made arrange
ments with the Detroit Safe Company for a tire
fire and burglar proof safe. This company
is composed of Mr. E. W. Nkff, a gentleman
of great experience in the Safe Manufactuer,
Mr. D. C. Page, for many years connected with
a safe manufacturing house of Cincinnati, aud
now Superintendent of the establishment at
Detroit; also Mr. . John J. Baglst and Z. R.
BaocKWAT. The company turn out three kinds
of safes, vixi fire proof, burglar proof, and a
combination of the two. It is the intention of
the Company to make a speciality of burglar
proof safes, as it seems the country is more in
need of this particular kind than of any other.
No cast iron is used on the outside of these
safes. On the inside is placed a steel chest,
which is impervious to burglars' tools. In mak
ing these safes the company use alternate lay
ers of boiler iron aud steel, and so put the en
tire safe together that it is both fire and burg
lar proof. The safe ordered is to be delivered
on the first of May next and is to cost $2,200.
We are glad to record the fact that our County
is to have a secure place for its funds. It is
hoped the new safe will prove to be all that is
claimed for it.
The funds of the County are now deposited
in our banks.
Latest New Thing in Fremont.
Mr. J. H. Moork has opened a new store at
No. 2, Tyler Block, where be sells all goods iu
his line at positively low rates. He sells at
wholesale and retail. Though he Las just open
ed, his store in filled with customers and he
finds himself doing a large business. Persons
who dtwire to trade at low figures will do well
to call ou him. He sells Flannels, Breakfast
Shawls, Calicoes, Hosiery, Bed-Spreads, Table
Spreads, Laces, Handkerchiefs, Ac, Ac.
In connection with this trade he sells Match
es and Cigart at wholesale and retail. There
U probably no matches made in the country
equal to thw e sold by Mr. Moore. They go
as well after being thoroughly wet as before.
Give this new house a call, they charge noth
ing for showing their goods.
LADIES RELIEF SOCIETY.
Tho Ladies of the Relief Society tender their
sinrera thanks to those who so liberally patron
ized their supper on the 30th nit.- 'Tbey would
also acknowledge the receipt of two dollars from
a stranger who subscribed himself a friend of the
Relief Society. This donatiou unsolicited was
refreshing,' and we felt the donor's heart was in
the right place to say nothing of the hearts of
those who were solicited, and did not attend or
send in the. needful. Thanks are due the String
Band for their efforts in connection with the en
tertainment. This society has been in existence
eleven years, and is a permanent institution.
The funds are mostly expended in cold weather,
when shoes are needtd for little bare feet, and
fires to protect from the inclement season the
su (ferine, who are poorly fed and clothed. It is
a blessed privilege to be able to give to the poor,
aud we hope always to be i funds, t :

Another Fire.
About, 12 o'clock Sunday night,. fire was
discovered between the two large wooden build
ings on State Street, owned by R. P. Buckland
and Chaa. Olrastead. In a moment after first
seen the fire suddenly shot up to the roof of
both buildings,' making it evident that the .fire
was the work of an incendiary, and that coal oil
or some other highly infiamable substance had
"been poured over the building in large quanti
ty. The flames spread with great rapidity and
in less than twenty minutes both were; wreath
ed in flames. Fire soon communicated with
the cornice of the brick block of Mr. Buckland
on the east and the wooden building of Mr.
Olmstead on the west The fire was put out
on the Bucklacd block, but the other three
buildings were consumed. The houses burned
were occupied by .three groceries, anil by one
shoe shop. A portion only of the contents were
saved. The buildings were old and of but lit
tle value with no insurance on them. About
$300 insurance on stock. The loss to some of
the occupants is severe. The damage to Buck-
land's brick block is probably about $500, in
sured, ' ' ;
The firemen turned out with their usual ac
tivity, and did good work. ' The German com
pany with their Laud engine were the first to
get water on the fire. Tho Steamer soon came
on with its flood of water, and as muscle can
never contend with steam, there was soon no
need of men at the breaks. s
The fire was confined to the three buildings
though the danger was apprehended that the
many barns and dwellings north of State Street
would beset on fire by the cloud of ftparks aud
burning shingles carried by the wind for a great
distance. -; - : '.-V' -'. ; -
-. We think the'wholejpeople of our town are
satisfied with the decision of . the Common
Coudcil in the purchase of a Steam Fire En-
glue for just such emergencies as the one passed
through laet Sunday night 4
No town in this section of the State can turn
out a better Fire Department than Fremont"

Whilst it will be seen from this general sum

when we consider the greatness of the work;
the spreading of the Word of God, not only to
our destitute at home, but to all whom the
blessed Gospel can be given, throughout the
world cannot more be done tho ensuing year ?
It must be apparent to all, that the contributions
have not been as large as they should have been.
Let ns one and all take the glorious rcsulis of
this great Christian work more closely to our
hearts; to give more freely of the abundance
with which God has blessed us; and to strive
more earnestly in the dissemination of His
Word to the destitute and the ignorant; happy
in the consolation of doing our duty, and pro
moting His Glory upon earth.

FREMONT FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Tuesday afternoon at the call of the Chief En
gineer and the Foreman of each of the three Fire
Companies, the Fire Department of our town,
turned out in full dress for parade and inspec
tion by the Common Council. The day Vas
pleasant and the turu-out was general of all
members who had procured uniform.
The procession was formed by Chief Engineer
S. Bucklasd, iu the following order:
Fremont Brass Band.
' German Company (Hand Engine and Hose
Company,) numbering 75 men, Capt. A. Youso,
Foreman.
Rescue Hook and Ladder Company, 40 men
Capt. H. W. Buckland, Foreman.
H Steam Fire Engine, General JicPierson,
drawn by a span of grey horses, preceded by its
two Hose Companies, 60 men, Col. H. W.
Bbistol, Foreman.
The line of march was from the Engine House
up Front Street to Market UP Market to Main,
and halting in front of the Court House, when
they all passed in review before their officers
and the council. They were then addressed by
his honor Mayor Evkkett, and responded by
three times three hearty cheers. i .
MR. EVERETT'S ADDRESS.
Firemen of Fremont:
-., Your Chief desires me to say a few words to
you. I cheerfully comply, and embrace this
first opportunity to say, that the Common Coun
cil and nil the people of the town are justly
proud of you; appreciate your sacrifices of time
and money, and promptness to encounter toil
and danger to protect us against the devouring
element
. Especially do we all thank you for your
promptness, skill and bravery, in extinguishing
the fire of last Sunday night, which but foryour
generous efforts, would have laid in ashes a
large portion of the business part of the town,
and ruinei financially, some of our excellent
citizens. ' , ' '
We endeavor to appreciate all your labors,
skill and courage, and thank you for them. You
surprise us all to-day by your fine appearance, -
rapia ana graceiui movements, perrect organi
zation, and discipline; all acquired in so short a
time.
Here you have a splendid Hook and Ladder
Company, with all its implements. There a
beautiful Hand Engine, ana appurtenances, all,
in excellent order, and manned all together by
nearly two hundred strong, active, resolute men.
We feel now, that we are able to fight fire, far
better than ever before in Fremont.
I know that all the accommodations yon
ought to have are not given. You need more
commodious buildings, easier access to water.
But the council have used all the means which
the law and the time permitted this year for
these purposes. I am sure it is the wish of the
present couucil, I know it is mine, that we
could have done more. No doubt the council
next year will see to it that yon are furnished
with these further facilities.
While looking at this beautiful display of
bauners, machinery and uniformed firemen, I
am impelled to a comparison of the present,
with the past and the progress in the Fire De
partment exemplifies our progress in all other
respects. To illustrate this permit me to tell a
"little story:" -
About 20 or 25 ago, I cannot now recur to the
exact year, at one of our municipal elections, the
question was made, whether the town should
buy a fire engine, or procure the building of
hay scales, for public use.
The landlords believing themselves cheated
in tho weight of the hay they bought, went with
their influence, of the hay scales, and on the
other side were arrayed those who dreaded fire
more than short weight on hay.
The contest was hot and bitter. The hay
scales party won. - Hay scales were built, and
used a year or two, and getting out of repair,
were little used. One night the cry of fire rang
through the town and everybody as usual turn
ed out, some with buckets and more without
buckets, soma fell to work and more fell to
standing still, and looking on. A barn not far
from the hay scales was well on fire and it was
soon apparent that the fire was beyond control
and barn and contents must go. While the
flames were surging up into the dark vault of
the sky, and casting wide a lurid glare, and the
cries of more water, more buckets, was mingled
in the roar and confusion. Old Judge Howland,
who had been a regular member of the fire en
gine party, erected his tall form into the lurid
glare, and in thunder tones roared out. "You
d d fools, why don't you bring on your hay
scales I"
The procession then moved on Main Street to
State, down State Street crossing the bridge to
the east side of the river. Returning passed up
Fuont to Garrison, from Garrison to Arch Street,
on Arch to the Engine House, when after a few
compliments they were dismissed.
The Fire Department of Fremont numbers
about 250 men, embracing the best men of our
town. Only about 175 men on parade, all not
yet having procured their uniform. We think
there is no town in Northern Ohio that can turn
out a more efficient Fire Department, and the
display on Tuesday did credit to the Firemen
and honor to the community. Fire is a mighty
adversary to cope with, but on many occasions
our gallant firemen have met the destroyer and
wrested from his destroying power property of
great amount We always regret the occasion
for a trial of right but when it does como, our
firemen are always victorious.

A Card. Editor of Journalla reply
to many letters and inquiries from people in this see
tion of the country, the nnderstgned take great pleasure
in saying through 'be columns of- your paper, that oar
renowned preparation known aa COK'S DYSPEPSIA
CURE, is a eertalneure for Dyspepsia, in its worst stasee.
Many cure of lnng standing, within oar own acquaint,
ance, have been completely, and we belive permanently
cured. It will stop distress after eating almoet instaw -taneoosly,
and enables the dyspeptic who has lived for
years upon Graham bread and tbe plainest diet, to eataa
heartily as be pleases, and anything he ehooses, without
danger of distress, or souring, or rising en the stomach.
It is an infallible corrector of indigestion and eonstisav.
tion, ereatea a healthy appetite, etc?a sick-headache,
heart-buru, sickness at the stomach, pains, cramps, or
eolicin either the stomach or bowels, and by enabling
the patient to take plenty of hearty food, "which is the
parent of health," produces vigor, strength and energy.
In everv trial we have known it has speedily eradicated
Dyspepsia with all its attendant saOerings, weaknesses,
debility, and loos of power, giving instead, a proper ac
tivity and tone to tbe stomach and organs ol digestion,
and aa we eonSdentry believe, and as tbe published cer
tificates la our circulars, almanac, and in many of
the leacing Journals, from eonvaleeeent patients will
eenfSm, completely, permanently, and almost mimesj
Iouaiy "cure the worst cam of Dyspepsia in existence.1
We warrant it in every instance It can be obtained at
all the Drug Stores in the United States and Canada, at
11,00 par bottle, or six bottles for $5,00.
