A reputation for securing and soiling only pure , and unadulterated liquors, is worth something to a man. Such a reputation August Kreuger has earned by many years of experience, and persons who require whisky or brandy lor medicinal purposes, may rest assu.-ed that when tbey buy it of Kreuger, they get it as it comes from tbe distillery, without any doctoring.

The stock of hardware owned by N. F. Bonsai was purchased by W. J. Allen and Stuart & McPheeters Samuel G. Itoliertson and wifo of Indianapolis, were here last week. Mrs. R. came down on a visit to her father, Mr. Jacob Bunger. Already there is a great deal of inquiry for farm machinery, and several cultivators and reapers have been sold. The rain, wind, and snow storms last week, were enough to blow four or five suns over the line. It is to be hoped that the job will not have to be done over again. David Byers, one of the old pioneers of Monroe county., will leave for Belinda, Lucas co., Iowa, this week, where he will make an extended visit. Contracts for dwelling houses are being made by Biooruington builders, almost every day now. More building is being done in Bloomington now than f.t any time within the past ten years. Ou Friday a week the Robertson farm, north of town, (91 acies ot it) including the residence, was sold to Jacob N. Miller, of Portland, Jay co., for $3,367. A representative of the Indianapolis Sentinol is writing up the schools, college societies, etc. The college authorities have purchased a large number of copies of the Sentinel containing a history of tbat institution.

Mr. Buskirk was a

Lieutenant in the late war. The Lawrence coubty Republican convention nominated the following ticket : Representative, Jas. McClelland ; Treasurer, Robert Kelly ; Sheriff, James McDowell. H. J. Nichols has prepared the plans for a two-story brick building, to occupy the ground upon which stands the frame houses west of the Mullikin corner, on 6th st. One hundred and twenty-five doors have been ordered from the factory by W. J. Allen; sevcn:y-five doors were sold before the order was sent. From nineteen barrels of sap, Mr. E. H. Marshall, of Richland township, this Spring made two bnshels of sugar and nine and a half gallons of maple molasses. Dr. Juo. Turner has bought the old Stockwell house, on 5th st. of John H. Louden, paying 175, and will repair it for a residence and office. Henry Hardy was driving one of Stock well' teams, last week,

compensation for the loss of six horses killed under him in action during the Mor jan raid. Candidates for county nominations are being bled before they get on the ticket. Oue candidate was approached Jast Saturday by a man who "could influence several probable delegates," and closed his remarks with a request tbat the can-r didate should purchase him a bale of hay. Mr. R. M. Wylie, owner of the store room occupied by McCalla & Co., will .soon make some very radical changes in his building. Anew open front is to be constructed,' a plate glass sky light will be added, and the ceiling is to be raised. This will make the McCalla room one ot the most desirable dry goods rooms in the city. Parker Pearson, an old time merchant of Bloomington, who just recovered from a severe illness, is again confined to his bed. Mr. Pearson carried on the dry goods business extensively scveu or eight years aero, in the old Odd Fellow's

cases to Lawrence circuit court.

The dining room of the Or

chard House has been newly paper

ed, painted and ornamented, and

looks as fresh and tasteful as the

dining room of any hotel in the country. In fact the Orchard is

taking a renewed lease on public

patronage, and is one of the reliable houses at which the transient public delight to stop. The wedding of Wro. J. King and Miss Ella Woolley, which occurred at the home of the bri Jo's parents, on the 23d inst.,was an unusually pleasant affair. It was private, only a few of the near relatives and . friends being present. The ceremony, performed by Rev.

J. L. Pitner, was .short, beautiful, !

and impressive. At 10;15 a.m., the wedding march begun, with Miss Ida Howe at tbe organ. Tho bride and groom, preceded by Prof. H.A. Hoffman and W. P. Rogers, then marched into the parlor, which was beautifully decorated. After the ceremony the guests were invited to the dining hall, where was spread aJiounteful feast. The tab!e was truly an ornament. Many useful presents were given, and the happy couple certainly seemed to start well on their new pathway. They go from hero to the home of Mr. Kiug in Beebe, Ark., where he is successfully editing the Becbs Times. They bear with them the best wishes of their many Bloomington friends.

Tuesday night cwo sheep were killed on Esquire Adams' farm ; nine sheep were killed in John Dcarmau's flock ; D.ivid Hunter had 21 sheep killed ; cut of a flock eleven sheep owned by Sophia Rogers, eight were killed, and forty-eight sheep were torn and mangled in , Milt. Rogers' flock ; of these 16 are dead aud as many more, it is believed, will die. A dog belonging to Win. Parks killed the Rogers sheep he was discovered by James Smith while still nt his bloody work, and Sniink promptly despatched the brute. If his life had been spared and he could have escaped to the District of Columbia,he might have had a three month's trial. Under the proper heading will be found the announcement of James B. Clark, as a candidate for the Republican nomination to the office of couuty clei'k. James B. Clark has been a citizen of Bloomington some sixteen years, and has formed the acquaintance of almost every man iu Monroe couuty. He is a square, prompt business man perhaps has few equals as a business man in the couuty. If Mr, Clark should be chosen clerk of Monroe county those who have business in the offico would find that it had fallen into hands that would keep up its present high standard. Mr, Clark removes to his farm this week, and after getting fairly settled there, will endeavor to visit as many of his friends as possible before the township conventions occur in May. Tha fifth annual meeting of the Teachers o.: Southern ludiana takes place at Conuersvilic, March 29, 30 and 31. Prof. Amzi Atwater, of Iiidiauu.

the Republican nomination for

Sheriff, there wero but few people

in Bloomington who knew him.

True he had lived In Clear Creek

township, west of Smithville, all his life except wten in the army, but he seldom came to town except

on business, and so had a limited

town acquiutance. Now he is generally ktiown, ami although not a man who gets acquainted rapidly, he is one of those who improve on

acquaintance, and invariably retains

the friends he makes. No officer

is more conscientious in the discharge of his du des, and no one gets along more quietly or satisfacto

rily than Sheriff G ri oies. The Ma

jor will ask for a rrnomination at

the hands of his Republican friends, with the assuranco that he will receive it by acclamation.

Commuoicetedj To tbe Soldlorn or Monrqe County. Mr. Editor ; -As a matter of Justice to, one who has, by deeds, and not words alone, proven himself to be. a true friend to tlio soldier, I desire throueh vour paper-

to call the particular attention of my coni-

raucs to tue claims gi u. v . crowning,, the present efficient deputy clerk, to ourunited support. 1 do this without any solicitation on his part, or on tbe pnrt of any of his political friends, but because f, deem it to be our duty to reciprocate past

1 favors, and now, when the opportunity of-.

icra, w iiiun our aqjrcomuuu ui mv mersices of one who has done to much in behalf of our comrades. During the whole of his ficial careee. there has been no other officer whose tarvices in behalf of the wounded nd afflicted soldiers has been se prominent and; so marked by kindness and disinterested consideration as h w the subject of tbi communication.. No comrade can testify that ha ever went into the Clerk's offlce on business connected with his wants as ft soldior aud came "away disaatts&ed. Oa the contrary I assert that each end all of you came away with a higher appreciation of, and a warmer affliction for U, Wt Browning. He was, by many years, too young, durii.g the late war, le serve hit Government: on "ho battle field or endure the hardships of a campaign, but this has not prevented! him from appreciating fully the services of those who so willingly enlisted in ourcountry's cause. You must remember that 17 years bava passed since the warwas brought to a successful termination. Wail. Rrowning (as he is familiarly called) was then a mere child. He has now grown to manhood. How many who were children then apprtsiate your services? How many who were then even in the prime and strength of menheod who fail-, od to defend our country, appreciate ourservices? How many Justice of the, Peace or Notaries Public in Monroe county would certify to your affidavits or admin-t ister oaths to your witnesses in soldier chains, in the claims of tho soldier's widow aud bis orphans, without tbe compensation allowed by law 7 When did WalJ. Browning ever charge you one cent 7 When did be ever charge the widow or. orphan of the soldier 7 Much of his tfar3, often valuable to him, ho bas freely given to you without compenalion, preparing your pension papers,sw--rinr your witness-; es, certifying to affidavits, filling up paV pers, and performing other service connected with your Government business. Did he ever cnarge for these services? Every man of you will answer, NO. He performed the service!, gratuitously. Asl( the guardians of soldiers' orphans. Ai tho soldiers' widows. Did Wall. Browning ever chargo for services rendered in, connection witb your Government claims? The answer will come : "He charged nothing for all these services." The same cannot probably be said of any other official in the State. If Mr,

.Browning had charged for his service what the taw allowed, it would have amounted to hundreds of dollars to him. Yet h willingly Reve these services t you. Where a soldier, or one representing a soldier, or 4 saldier'a widow, or tha guardian of soldier's orphans was trans-, acting soldiers business with Wall. Browning and asked what were, the charges, thu answer was always substantially, "I charge, nothing to soldiers. Shall auch kindness, and gratuitous service pass unnoticed on unappreciated 7 Many qf you probably unheeded such kindness and thought that it was special favor conferred upon you. Such was not the case. It made no difference whothsr you were known to Mr, Browning personally or not. If ycu wer a soldier or the representative of a soldier, it was siiffioient. Many soldiers are unacquainted with the ;c facts, not having had business, transactions in such capacity with Mr. Browning, and might be indifn ferent to his claims' upon yon. To. thesw I desire to call particular attention to tha foregoing statements and beg eonsideration of tbont. Soldier. 9 otlce. Tn Affar.t March 26th Louisville Mail

No use in carry-t ing your groceries three squares fur ther when you can get as good and as cheap articles much nearer home, The Eye Indicator is an in

strume'nt purchased by Tobe Smith

in New xork trom Prat. JUigtey, the famous optician. By this ia?

strumcut the exact focus of tbe vis

ion is secured, and the eyes are not ruined by experiments with glasses, that are not suited. In most cases of defective vision one eye is

stronger than the other, and in or-r

der to give relief and aid, the weak

eye should have a stronger glass, The exact strength of this glass can thus be indicated. Persons whose glasses do not suit their eyes should

be fitted by the "Indicator," anq thus preserve their eyes. Front Lace, and buckle p)w shoes, just received at Hunter's Bazar, west side square.
