MondaT, Nov. 8d.
The several courts of this comity were regular
ly opened this morning at 10 o'clock, Charles
Wharton, John Bmltb, 1. M. Cummings and
Hiram Price were appointed tipstaves. The con
stables reported tbe condition of their several
charges, and Judge Rockefeller proceeded to
charge the Grand Jury. After the usual Instruc
tions In regard to tho finding of Bills &c, the
Judge suggested to the Jury tbe propriety of ad
vising the Commissioners to have as much work
dono np tho public roads, through the winter, ns
possible, to the end that employment might bo
given to those Indigent men who suffer from tho
stringency of the money market, and thereby, to
great extent, prevent the usual amount of
crime attendant upon "hard times."

her life, nnd nlso pay tho costs of prosecution,
amounting to $60. All this, mind you, becane
Glase wouldn't live with his wife, nnd because
bis wlfu wouldn't live with Glnsc. Tho Court
also informed the parties that If Glase didn't bo
have himself with proper decorum the$i5 would
grow, and that if the kicked up any didoes It
would diminish.
In the case of Coin. vs. William Gaining, con

his course being Indicated only by the old hat
which was distinguishable upon the surface. Se
veral boats were launched from the Northumber

Wind and tide seemed to favor a watery grave
for John Ross, nnd anxious eyes watched the
cwursu of tho old hat, nnd as it approached the
shore about, n mile below town, near tho mouth
or the Mahoning creek, Mr. Jacob Uecd drove
down his wugon expecting to bring home the
lifeless body of the old fisherman. But ho w as
not brought up on tho water to die by drowning.
Ho did not appear much the worse, for his peril

sank entirely out of sight so that he could barely
keep his head above water. By carefully mani

Scrmner's Momitlv, fob NovEMnER, contin
ues to sustain the high character of this periodi
cal. The leading article, "The Great South
Old and New l.ouslanua." by Edward King, Is
richly Illustrated throughout its thiity-lhree
pages with almost twice thirty well executed en
gravings, aud is of Itself north double the cost
of the book. "The Story of the Telescope' Is il
lustrated by a portrait of Alviu Clark, tho re
nowned lelescnHi maker, of this couulry. Au
excellent portrait of Stcdiiian, the poet, aud ma
ny other excellent vugruvlngs iliuslrute this
number.
In U'ami't HuhicXM MmjutitH for November,
tbe tuble ol couleuts seems spread for a Thunks
giving feast, and gives evidence that no efforts
huvu been spared that could add to its excellence.
"A Bexiuou ou a Skimmer," is not only pleusiug
In its qiiulntuess, aud originality, but contains
sound logic. "Mrs. Pomeroy's Pin Money," is
capital. "Upon the Bluud," is another merito
rious sketch, by the popular writer Kate W.
Hamilton. "Ccdtlsh und Potatoes, "by Eleauor
Kirk, is a shart serial which oiens well. "Grow
ing Aged Together," by the Rev. Kobeit Collyer,
is well worth the price of the year's subscription
it Is full of this great man's eloquence power
ful in its veiy simplicity. There are mnuy other
interesting articles hud we space to mention
them. The poetry In this number Is unusually
good. A new feature of the magazine is the in
troductlon of pictures, aud the Illustration,
"Past, Present and Future,' bore given, Is ex
ceedingly pretty.
Price of magazine, one dollar per year with

gustus Wuld, aged about 93 years.
The deceased hud been an Invalid for some
months, and suffered excruciatingly from
the character of her disease, but she bore her
affliction with Christian fortitude. Mrs. Wuld
was widely known ns an excellent woman In all
the tea'ions of life, but more particularly In
that which embellishes the Christian character,
charity. While she had, none wanted. As kind
and umluble in life, so was she patient lu suffer
ing even unto deutb, submitting all to Him who
docth all things well. For n number of years
she was a consistent chinch member, and took
great delight in instructing her little Hock the
way to Christ, ut her Sunday School, lu her
death the poor hate lost a friend aud benefactor;
aud a husbuud experiences a vucnucy iu Ills
household that can never be re-occupied. Her
remains wcro followed to her lust resting pluce
by friends from every part of the State,
Iu whose memories her same will live,
Through long succeeding years,
Embalmed with all their hearts can give,
Their praises und their tears.
O, Tor the death of those,
Who slumber In the Lord I
O bu like hers our last repose,
Like bers our last reward. En.
