(From the Woodstock Weekly Review of Nov. 101b, 1876,) OXFORD Armsâ€"The Atlas of Ox- ford County, which has been in prepar- ation for some time, has been finished, and has been issued from the press. The work is an extremely credible one,| and will supply a want long felt in this community. It is the most complete work of the kind ever published in this district, and reflects the highest credit upon the energy and capacity of Messrs. Walker 8; Miles, the responsible parties in the publication. It contains an'enor- mous amount of valuable statistics con- veniently arranged, and abounds with lumps of both a local and general char- acter. An excellent feature is a separ- ate map of each township. divided into lots with the farmers’ names thereon. An historical sketch of the County, preâ€" pared with a great deal of care and disâ€" crimination, by one thoroughly compe- tent for the task. will be read with interest, not only by old residents, but by the younger inhabitants who have but little knowledge of the trials of the first settlers. The sketch of the county in a word meets every expectation formed of it.

Referring to the trickery being» practiced by the Republican leaders in, order to count out Mr Tilden, who is evidently the choice of the nation fon- President, and who has poled a po ulnn majority of 175,000, the New ark Herald says.â€"â€"“ The Republican party is not made up of rogues and Tenth: lawyers. It contains agrent mass of honest, honorable, patriotic men, land these will not tolerate what would make them hang their heads with shame; they will not allow their leaders to resort to trickery, to base devices, to doubtful» means to count in their candidates Already the Republican opinion of the proceedings in the disputed States is such that it has become alngost impos- sible decently to count in goverppr Hayes. Already the wisest Republicans say'in conversation that they hope for the sake of their party for Mr Tilden‘s return. As yet the honest Republican masses are waiting in silence, but with decreasing patience. But any further appearance of- trickery, any, the least, continuation of these attempts in the disputed States to take advantage of shallow legal technicalities, to resort to un'dcrhand and unworthy means,snch~ as the recent hearing of testimony charging intimidation, on which, the Louisiana Returning Board has, it issnid, determined, will give voice to the smoth- ered indignation ot the Republican party, who cannot stand silent and sec ‘hem: selves and the good farm at their .pcrty sold in disgrace," ‘ The subscription for the Liebig monument is now closed.
