farming lands west of us, and that many of the influential farmers objected to it, but would favor the project, provided the old State road was used. This turnpike fever has again broken out, (in a mild form) this time among the farmers themselves the proper persons to act hi the premises and they still adhere to the belief that the State road line is the best. A wealthy and liberal farmer, who lives west of town, stated, one day last week, that he would willingly subscribe one

thousand dollars to this road, and, if necessary, even a larger sum. The State road route, is not so direct as the one projected two years ago; yet, if it can be McAdamized if the people will unite on this route, and build one road we feel assured that the benefits derived, will soon induce the building of others. Of one thing we are positive: If vhe town people will fall in with the views of the farmers, in this matter, six. or eight thousand dollars more can be raised, than if the route through the farms is insisted upon. Why cannot our wealthy and influential farmers hold & meeting, and organize a Turnpike Company? Do irot wait for the people who reside in Bloomingtou to take the initiatory steps, but organize the

movement for once yourselves, and the citizens of Bloomington will not be s';Ow to follow your lead. Who will be the first man to go to work in earnest? The bridge over Bean Blossom Creek, five miles north of Bloomir gtoir, is in a dangerous condition the stringers are cracked, and the entire structure swings with every step of a horse. We will get an "accident item" from that bridge, if it is not soon repaired Tliie wheat crop promises to be large, everywhere, and the impression prevails that the market for new wheat will open at 75c. por bushel Oak bark brings 11

Agricultural .Society, A meeting of the Monroe County Agricultural Societywas held at the Court House, on Saturday last, and it was determined to change the time of holding the Fair to the 31st of August, Sept. 1st, 2nd, and 3d. The Morgan County Fair having selected the time heretofore: set by our Society, this change was made necessary. All the officers ware re-elceted with the following exceptions : Directors Wm. A. Johnson, Wm. Kirby, and C. F. Snodgrass. P. G. Pauley was appointed Assistant Superintendent. It was decided that the books should be opened for further subscription to tae stock of the Society. Persons desirous of subscribing, can do no by applying to the Secretary. More money is needed, to make necessary additions and improvements upon the Fair grounds. The Treasurer was also instructed to ca.l upon those who subscribed, and have never paid in any portion of the stock so subscribed, and endeavor to collect the same. The vacancy which will occur upon the State Board of Agriculture, by the removal of Col. McCrea to Illinois, must be filled soon, and the Socictv reeom nended that Hon. Geo. A.

John P. Smith lias removed his stock of Jewelry to the room formerly accupied by M. J. Smith, on the west side of the public

spared neither tune nor money in the decoration of his score, and has made large additions to his stock, since his removal. He keeps none but the most reliable makes of Watches and Clocks, because he is determined to earn the friendship and indorsement of his customers; and in Jewelry, etc., he only asks a trial to prove that his goods are just as represented, Remember that John P. Smith is now located on the west side 01 the public square. myJfe?" By an advertisement in to-day s paper, it will be seen that Wm. A. Lego and J. C. Worlky, have again gone into partnership in the Livery business. These gentlemen keep as good stock as can be purchased in this part of the State, and their buggies aud carriages are new and stylish. You will find them accommodating and honorable in their dealings, and anxious to please their patrons. The stable is just south of the depot. Tlhc "Climax." There are soveral good Harvesting Machines offered to our farmers, but the "Clirn&x" Mower has many points of excellence. It is a late invention, and this is the first season it has been fairly in market, and it has already taken several first premiums this season at the Mowing Matches. At the late great Mowing Match, on James River, near Richmond, it was in competition with twenty of the best Machines in the countrv, and came out No. 1, as it did at the late Match at Nashville, Teun. We shall expect a similar report from it at our Mowing Match, to-day. The machine is made entirely of iron and steel, with the machinery ell enclosed in an iron box, secure from dirt or grass, all very simple and compact. It is certainly a well made and desirable machine. Farmers should see the "Climax" before they buy. These machines are manufactured by the Cory Manufacturing Co., at Cory, Penn. They are this season testing their Reaping attachment, in the field, which will, they think, be a complete success. It will be attached to the Climax Mower at a smell additional cost, and cuts, rakes and binds, at the same operation. M. W. Helton, is the Agent. Whkn you pass A Stobe door twenty times in one day, and see the counters each time crowded with people, you May feel assured that there is business being done by that firm. This is true of Wm. O. Fee tfc Co., who are doing a No. 1 business at present, notwithstanding the dullness of trade in many stores. This firm havt a large, choice stock of goods, and r.re pleasing their customers both in the matter of prices and quality. Go and see. 1 mm il Baccalaueeate Sermon.

CASH CAPITAL, - - $150,000 OO Stockholders' Responsibility to Assured, - $300,000 00 THE DE SOTO MUTUAL Takes the position that money being worth more in the West than in the East enables a well managed Western company to declare a better dividend than any Eastern one can. Then why should our citizens send their money East to be loaned at 7 per cent, to build up rival interests, when our own peopl s want the niouey at 10 per cent, interest, and will furnish just us pood security ? To concentrate capital at home, to develop the resource's of OUR OWN COUNTRY, is a matter: n which everv Western eitizen has an interest. THE DESOTO MUTUAL In maturing it:i plans and peculiar features, and in getting up tho Policy the company issues, secured the aid of the highest mathematical ability they could obtain, and the experience and wisdom of those who have for years made Lilt: Insurance a business and a study. No life Insurance Company now before '.he public stands on a more solid and substantial bash, than the Do Soto Mutu il. The company stmds pledged to its policy holdera for 3300,000 a sum double ha cash capital. Tbe stringent law under which it was organized makes each stockholder Hable for do ub!e the amount of His stoek Every company organized under the new E.nd rigid laws of Missouri have to mske a deposit with the Treasurer cf State of gi 100,000, subject to the inspection and under the supervision of the Superintendent of Insurance, wboso doty it is to make an annnal report to the Legislature, shewing the condition of all companies o:ganh:od or doing business in said State. The De Soto Mutual We believe issues a BETTER POLICY than any company iu the United States. It is a plain, simple, siort, yet comprehensive contract, not liable to the doubtful construction which ( hamcterizes many Life Policies, and does not. make the usual restrictions on travel. THE DE SO'.X) MUTUAL makes all policies non forfeitable; divides surplus t,mong policyholders; lakes only first class risks. Bates as low as leading cash companies. No extra charge for insuring the lives of females.
