Tax regular session of tbe Coun ty Commiesioneta begins on tue 5th oi next month. Thb ad vertisc inert of (he Teach er's Institute. &s published hereto- tore in this pnper, contained a mis Ulce. Instead ot the term being only ef two week's duration, it should Lave said four weeks. A rorxo man, a Republican, was asked the other day if he would not run as a Re publican candidate for Councilman. "No, ir," he replied, "I think too much of my- su u run mr ue canuiaate oi any party a gainst Mr. Tresise, when the question i Seer or no Beer, as it is now." Such is the feeling of all right-minded men cf all Dir ties, and it is questionable if the Beerites will be able to get a respectable man to acme out astneir candidate. Tbk Court of Common Pleas, for this County, convenes again on tbe 5th of next month. Fire criminal eates and seventy-one civil caes are docketed for hearing. Tbe Conrt will last abont two weeks, and a portion ot the time will be presided over by Jude Moses M. Granger. However, Judge F. W. Woid will preside during most of the session. Teb Beerites are Laving a hard time of it, in '.heir attempt to get a respectable man to run on their ticket for .Councilman. llespecta lle men think it about as disreput able to run for Councilman, with the avowod purpose of repealing tbe ''Beer Ordinance, as it womd be to stand behind the counter and retail Beer. Tbeee are those in this common ity that are charging that the pre sent dull times are all on account of the "Beor Urdinance." In other words, they say that onr farmers won't come to town because they cannot buy Beer. Certainly these Beerites have a high idea of the farmers of Morgan County ! Think of it, farmers 1 - They would mako it appear that yon are great Beer and n nisky guzzlers ! The County Commissioners met on Tuesday last as a Board of Equalization ot the Personal Prop- f i -t i erij oi too county, uui owing to the fact that Caleb A. Williams, Assessor of Marion Township, was not up to time with bis omcial bus iness, they adjonrned, without ac complishing anything, to meet gain as raid Board on the 8ih dav of next month. TVk. C. Tresize has introdaced - mme new styles of Photographs in this community, which are worthy of any one's inspection. They are the Itembrant, Holyoke, Berlin, and, also, the Life Size Photo graphs.

The contractors for building the contemplated Baptist Church bail ding, have begun operations such as hauling the stone for the fonnda tion, A-o. The main Church build tog has been contracted for for sev en thousand dollars, and the Sab bath School and Lecture building or eight hundred dollars. The probability is, howover, that the two buildings will cost all of nine thousand dollars. Isaac Fonts, G. B. Fonts and J. B. Powell are tbe contractors. The Baptists and those connected with the Baptists by re lationship, nave subscribed abont six tLousand dollars toward this work, and the Church will be able to raise considerably more within its folds. Our citiaens generally will be called npon soon to coQtn bnle their individual mites, and it is hoped that they will respond i beraliy. Tbe buildings will be highly creditable to the town, to aay nothing of the purpose for which they are to be used. Kxv. Wk. H. WoLryof the M. E Churoh, died at his residence near Grove City, eight miles west of Co lumbus, Ohio, of consumption, on Taesday night, the 16th insU, aged thirty-five years. Mr. Wolfs first charge was at Bossean, this county, ana bis next in si ana, b:s next in Amesville, Athens county, bis next at Grove City above mentioned, his next at Midway, Madison county, and bis next and last at Milford Centre, Union county, which bis failing health caused him to give up and return to his home near Grove City, a little over one year ago.

' 1 ful swer. Tbi New Lexington Herald, tbe I8tn, cornea to ns aaicing us exchange, and evidencing its need ot a missionary of some kind would furnish it with a copy of National Prohibition Platform. The Herald is a very neatly print ed Democratic paper, and is the ge.n of tee dominant party of Perry County, and is evidently troubled at tne prospective growth of a Pro hibition party in Perry County, having probably similar feelmes inose narDorea by our McConnels ville Herald at seeing the Prohibi tion party prosper in Morgan Coun ty. But the Herald, (the New Lex ington one we mean), essays stop the growth of tho Prohibition cause in Periy County by a timely nip at the bud, and in doing spends almost a column of its most valuable space in telling the Prohi bitionists not to begin at tbe bran ches ef the great tree of destruc tion, but to commence at the roet or, in other words, not to trouble themselves by trying to force Dem ocratic officials to enforce the pres ent laws, but to strike out boldly for laws that would make it equally as criminal to sell in or bring into tbe State any kind ef alcoholic li quors as it is to steal horses or pass counterfeit money. The Herald, (the New Lexington one), has hesitancy in saying it is justaabad to degrade, rob and kill a man bv selling him liquor as it is to steal horses, commit burglary, or what our laws now stamp as murder, and it wants the 1 rohibitionists to stop their endeavors to have the present laws enforced and devote their en tire attention to tho work of hav ing laws made that will place those who sell liquor in their proper sphere in the catalogue of crimin als. We do not know what tho Prohibitionists- of Perry County are doing further than we can guess by the complaints of the Herald, but we would assure the editors of that pnner that if thev will examine tho Platform of tho National Prohibition party, found on the first column of the second page of this paper, and on which the Prohibitionists of Ohio are fighting, tht-y will find that tho Prohibitionists are fighting for the entire Prohibition of tbe sale, man ufacture or importation of all alco holic stimulants as a beverage. While we are at work at the rKt, though, wo think it well enough to put in what spare time wo have by lopping off somo of the branches, all that we are able to lop off with the natcnet too people ot Ohio have given us. Jf by this means we can stop the growth of the monster cv en a littlo, we will be doing much good. Tbe Herald's cry el "begin at me root ana wo ore with you. was in the month of every liquor vendor in McConnelsville three years ago, but they failed to be with us, forgot :beir promises when we presented them the Prohibition Platform beginning at tho root.

Mccarty, JOSEPH A. JLELLY, JAMES B. McGREW, ARZA ALDERMAN, R STANTON, PATRICK SWEENEY, JAMES BAIN, GEORGE CAMPBELL, and others. McCONNELSVILLE, O., May 18th, 1871. Messrs W. W. McCartt, and others Gentlemen : In answer to your communication of thelth. permit me to say that 1 am thank for the confidence manifested in your letter, and that I accept the candidacy tendered mo upon the WM. C. TRESIZE. All who aspire to become School Teachers in Morgan county should fail to attend the Teachers' Normal Institute to be held in Mc Connelsville, as advertised else where in this paper. For a yearor more past, a great many who want teach have thought the examin ations by the Morgan County Board Examiners too severe, when the fault has been that they were unfit- fr the positions they seek. object of this Institute is to smooth the way ferall such to come to the standard that the Board rightfully requires. Arrangements be made for all .to obtain boar ab'.lity, at reasonable rates, and it is hoped none will fail to attesd. , . of to that the or to to so, ; Ici I Al. Worley will accomo date all who desire ice brought their doors at reasonable rates. He makes a circuit of the town this business four times a week. His ice is probably . tbe best that was put up here last winter. Elsewhere in thu paper will found V. B. .Lewis & Co. s acver tisement, to which we call special attention. This firm is one of tbe live establishments uf ZnnesviIIe, and is receiving a heavy patronage from the people ot tbe Muskingum Valley; Tbey slate in their adver tisement that they are ready make it interesting to a live mar., either in McConnelsville or Malta, to take bold of the Canton Buckeye Mowor ii Reaper, for whit-h they are tbe General Agents for tbe Muskingum Valley. Here is chance lor somo enterprising man to build up a lucrative business V. B. Lewis & Co. are general dea lers in Hardware, Farm Implements, Seeds, &., Ac, and parties wbo go to Zancsville to trado, cannot do better than to call on them. One of the electioneering stories being circulated now is to the ef fect that a certain person who owns considorablo real estate in McCon nelsville will not give anything to ward building a railroad unless the "Beer Ordinance" is repealed. He then, tbe story goes, will rent his buildings for beer-shops and give the rents toward building a rail road. Is not this generous I Here is a man that wants to build a rail road off the wages of the laboring men : off the woes and wails of wives, widows and orphans ; off the moral, mental, physical, financial, and spiritual ruin of his fellow men ; and then ho wants to have it to tell that he gave so much to ward building a railroad, so much thus got ! It strikes us that if any ef our citizens want to build a railroad out of tbe money they would J fpend for Beer if the Ordinance was repealed, it would he far better for them to save their dimes tnd half, dimes themselves, and apply them to the building of a road them selves, instead of making a Beer Saloon a halr-way house for them. The New Departure We pub lishthis week tho resolutions, pre pared by C. L. Vallandigham, and passed unanimously by the Mont gomery County Democracy at their recent County Convention in Day ton , and, as the probability is thai they will bo acceptoJ as tho plat form of the Democratic party of Ohio at the coming folate conven tion, to bo held in Columbus on the 1st day of June, we may say they are of peculiar significance to the whole country. Heretofore, Mr. Vallandigham, and the Montgome ry County Democracy, have been the most ultra in their parly hold ings and demands ; and, now that they have turned a complete sum mersault, bave ceased to clamor for a "White Man's Government," hare abandoned the idea thai one or more Slates of our Union can have the right to secede, have repudiat ed the "Greenback" policy and are nrg'ng speedy return to specie payment : in short, hare swallow ed tbe lata war and all its political results, negvo anfTrago included, and have come squarely onto the Republican platform of two yearn ago under such circumstances, i it strange that there should be eon. siderable commotion ? But tlrange as it is that Mr. allandigham and bis ultra friends should make such a wholesale surr3cder of what they claimed, few years ago, to be their ever endurable principles, yet it is equally strarge thai the Democrat ic papers and leaders of Ohio sho d fall in with them in their new ideas so readily. The Ohio Statesman, of Columbus, recognizes the situation at once, and comes out boldly for the Dayton Flatform. It roes so far in its views as to bold that if the Supreme Court of the United States was thoroughly Democratic, that said Court would sustain the throe last amendments to the Ui-i-ted States Constitution as the law of the land, notwithstanding that it might be proven that they were il- legally enacted. Tho Cincmnat Enquirer endorses the Dayton flatform also, it we except its dis position to stick to its "Green back plan of paying the National debt. On this point it hesitates ittla abont following in the wake of Mr. Vallandigham, and wiil doubtless wriggle and writhe con siderably before it succumbs to tho pressure that will finally force it to capitulate. .Leading Democrats in this community, we mean tlioso who would never fortake the party no matter how often it forsakes them, are taking the platform one section al a time, and it is thought they will get it all down by the 1st of June. This action of the Dem ocracy cannot but result in good to tbe Prohibition cause. It has brought the two old parties sc near ly together that there la little or no difference in them except In the name, and they will stand before the people only as two armies of vampires fighting for the possess ion of the victim whose blood they would suck. This will force the great body of our citizens to look around for a party that has a prin ciple to carry into effect, and lhey will be naturally attracted by the cause of X'rohibition. Annual Meeting of the Morgan Co. Medical Society. Notiee is hereby given that the Annual Meeting, for 1871, of the Morgan County Medical Society will be held on TUESDAY", MAY 30th, at the office of Dr. Chaa. Rob ertson, in McConnelsville.

This merely a dodee. and will be franrhL with all the evils resultine from the free lof me poison, end will be attended with the additional evil of continual lawsuits, ic. As the Ordinance now stands, there is little prospect oi our community being harass ed with prosecutions, for the reason that no one will deal in the article when he cannot mace it prontasie but by subjecting him self to the penalties of the Ordinance. Un der such an Ordinance as the Beerites pro pose, lawsuits and prosecutions would spring up on every hand. The Vendors would violate the Ordiuance every day, ta king the chances that they could not be convicted, knowing that it "is a very diffi cult matter to convict a violator under such an Ordinance. Besides this, is it the wish of any respectable man that his neirh. bor. a sober man to-dar. should be miHn drunkard of to-morrow ? Such would be the result of such an Ordinance as the Beeritco propose. Cincinnati Live Stock Market. Cincinnati, Eve. of May 22.
