The Courier reccomends a "peach and honey" celebration on the 8th of January. Dakota is too strongly Republican to get into the Union as a State during the existence of the present or the next Congress. Governor Cleveland's hands are shaken with much vim and heartiness by hundreds of admiring constituents nowadays. -A hand with a hundred thousand offices in it is worth shaking. A small amount of lime mixed with wheat that haB acquired a musty smell by having been slightly heated, will sweeten it without injuring the wheat, it is claimed. Mules are being purchased by New Albany dealers at $80 to $90 for 14-hand 4 to 7 year olds and $110 to$175 for 14i to 16 hands 4 to 7 year olds. The demand has been light, but is expected to soon improve. The turkey dosen't care a continental for political isms. It's all one to him. He would bare to be killed and eaten as a Christmas sacrifice if Blaine had got it, just sb easily as he will now that Cleveland has climbed the pole. Cron & Roseberrv, the enterprising butchers and stock eontractors, have killed and salted for their own retail trade, 200 head of fat hogs. The annual supper of the Red Men takes place to-morrow night, and all the arrangements for an occasion of extraordinary enjoyment are .complete. The large number of tickets already disposed of in sures an unnsual attendance. The preliminary exercises at the Hall of the order consist of an anniversary address, a beautiful watch and chain to be presented to tbe hand

somest lady, and a huge cake of,

many- colors and curiously ornamented to be donated to the ugliest man present. All this will create plenty of fun and merriment.

Tbe supper of a doxen kinds of

wild game, oysters, ooffee, ice cream and delicious fruits, at the Orchard House will follow immediately after, and the dance at Mendelsohn Hall

will take place about eleven o'clock. :

A ehoiee orchestra froua Indiana polis, of eight selected .instruments, Will furnish tbe music at the Hall,

Hotel and hop. There are many

visitors to be present from adjacent tribes and a score of delegates from

tbe cities, also. Those who expect

grand time, and for a small ex

penditure, will not be disappointed.

The Treaty with Spain is now the absorbing topic in city business circles, owing to the fact that Spanish tobacco and sugar are to be admitted free of duty, if the treaty is ratified. The N. Y. Sun inter-! viewed a number of business men on the subject. Among these, a merchant in the Produce Ezchange said : "The duty ou sugar has got to come off anyhow. It is not fair that the people should be taxed $52,000,000, the amount of duty 00 imported sugar, in order that Louisiana may produce barely 100,000 tons, much leas than she produced before the war, when the duty was three-quartern of a cent instead of two cents as now. It is nonsense to suppose that the repeal of the duty on Cuban sugar will not bring down the price to the consumer. The Cubans will increase their product. The other sugar countries will make concessions to us in order to get their sugars in free. Admitting that there is a temporary injustice to other countries, it will soon be rectified to our advantage. The refiners say the price won't come down and the Louisiana planters say it will. The opposition docs not seem to agree. But the main point to consider is that we must improve our foreign market and must build up our merchantmariue. Here is the first step." When Mr. James K. Ward of the Ward line of steamers was aoked how the treaty would help the American merchant marine, he aaid : "Every American vessel has hitherto paid a tonnage tax which ran from $1 to $1.35 a ton every time it went in a Cuban port. If a ship measured 2,000 ton she bad to pay at least $2,000. You can imagine the size of tbat tax in a year on a regular Mm of Havana steamers like ours. That will all be saved to American vessels, which will now nearly monopolize the trade. Then the fines for error3 in manifests, which are very annoying, are done away with. It is reasonable to suppose that the trade will require a great increase in the tonnage. We do not apprehend much opposition except from

tolmcco men and from importers of 1

sttgir from other countries." Minister Foster is now in Washington, and it is supposed that the Senate will consider the treaty immediately. Rev. J. L. Pitner, the pastor of Trinity M. E. Church, Evansvalle, is to leave his present charge, to go to Hennepin avenue M. E. Church, in the city of Minneapolis, Minn. This is the largest and most aristocratic Church in Minneapolis. It was a fortunate thing for Mr. Pitner, that when Town Prosecutor of Bloomington he became disgusted with law and turned his attention to the gospel. For while be seemed to have but few of the elements within bim that go to make up a first-class lawyer, be is certainly a phenomenal success as a preacher. A LL manner of ohoice Holiday

provisions at Robertson Bros. Go there and fill your basket for a very small sum of money. On Tuesday of last week, John Blair A Son, and Ben. I. Owens, sold to Woodard A Mathers 123 bead of fat hogs, for which they received $4 gross. Owens had 53 hogs, and 70 belonged to the Blairs, The aggregate amount paid for the hogs was

$1,520:20. Last year these gen

John C. is also an active candidate for Postmaster; On Thursday afternoon of last week, Mrs. John McCalla, of North Walnut St., gave in afternoon lunch to a oompuny of thirty-five ladies. As Mrs. McCalla's proficiency as a caterer aud housekeeper are so well known as to make remarks on this point superfluous, we will only say that a pouring rain during almost the entire day, did not prevent her guests from responding to their invitations; An innovation was the presentation' of two elegant handkerchiefs as premiums to the two ladies who should, at a certain dis

tance; toss the greatest number of beans into a box. Six beans were thrown by eaah contestant, the highest number lodged in the box by one person being four.

There was another turkey shooting match east of town, last Fridity, aud Jas. and Samuel Gilmora er.ch shot four turkeys, thus demonstrating that ia addition to being the champion wagon builders of Bloomington, they are also the crack-shots of the turkey matches.

A Council of Baptiut Preachers will be held in the church of that denomination in Bloomington, on Friday next, 19ih inst., beginning at 10 o'clock a. in., to investigate charges against Dr. Lemuel Moss.

The Baptist Church of this place calls the Council together, and will be represented by a committee of six, comprising the following named gentlemen: Pbilmer Day, Dr. John Tourner, Leroy S. Sanders, E. P. Bicknell, Chas P. Tourner and James Ryan. It has been said that Dr. Moss would be defended by Judge Wilson, but upon

inquiry of a prominent Layman of

tba church (Mr. Jas. Ryan) the: Progress is informed that Dr. Moss has stated that he would appear in his own behalf. The investigation will be strictly a church Council, and not publio. Rev. Stanley, of Orleans, be
