Nobby suits, neat-fitting and handsome, are turned out daily by Ben. MeGee, the Artist Tailor,, at his emporium of fashion, on the south side of the public square. A peculiarity of McGee's suits is that while they fit snugly to the form, as if moulded, they are perfectly easy bo binding or sensation of drawing. In fact, they have the peculiarity of all proper-fitting clothes : you are unconscious of the fact that you have them on your person, and so don't feel constrained and uncomfortable as is the case with the clothes cut by many Tailors. MeGee has the best piece goods the market afiords and trims with only first-class trimmings, buttons, etc. A spring suit should be ordered now, so that it may take its place early in the list. -;

an original poem by a student of I. S. U. and declamation by a member of the Band of Hope. The following preambles and resolution were unanimously adopted by Paul E. Slocnm, Post 35 Department of Intl. G. A. R. and afterwards unanimously adopted by citizens and soldiers generally, assembled for the purpose of decorating soldiers' graves, at the city of Bloomington, Ind., May 31, 1S86 : Whereas, In a recent lecture entitled, "The Now South," by one Patton, Prof, of Indiana State University, to tho children of tho public schools of this city, in which he attempted to vindicate tho "Old South'' by uttering substantially the following : ' "That such men as Loo and Stonewall Jackson were heroes, and would stand in history side by side with such patriots us Washington, Jefferson. Patrick Henry and others (omitting Abraham Lincoln). That tho surrender of Gen. Lee was not forced at Appomattox, but was in eift-ct voluntary on his. part, and upon conditions only; That tho wgroe of tho South were better off as slaves than as freedmer ; that they, tho negroe, were well treated, contented, and as slaves tho

happiest people on earth.

And wlioreas. We as Ex-Soldiers of tho

extinction of human slavery, nnd the restoration and perpetuity of the Union.

tion or ty any true patriot ana wvor oi

his who e country.

Therefore. Resolved, That wo hereby

condemn the utterances and sentiments of said Ytklxm, on tho oc.casion of his said lecture to the chi idren of the public schools as false, misleading, unpatriotic and not sustained by tho truth of history. That

while he (Patton) has an undoubted right to entorluin his own private opinions at. to the justice and sacredness of tho south

ern cause in the late Rebellion, just as an Anarchist or Socialist may have bis on social or financial questions, tho expression and utleranco of such opinions in

public atisemblies of any kind, and espec

ially to .ho youth or our land, is an outrage anc an' insult to tho Union soldiers, and cannot be too severely condemned by all truo patriots. That we hereby censure the conciuct of whoovor may hava been responsible for allowing snoti'disloyal and falso utterances to be made to and in tho presence of our children.

Hon. Wm. B. Seward, State House Commissioner ,has been quite sick, during the past two or three weeks, and came home Saturday for a brief effort et recuperation.

Hoping to be admitted to the grand sisterhood of States by the

present Congress, the Territory of

been chosen to deliver the annual address before the Alumni of Indiana University, on Tuesdry night next. We refer to Hon. A. C.Melette, of Watertown, Dak., a former student of Ind. University, and son-

in-law of Prof. T. A. Wvlie. His

address will be worth hearing, and he will have a large audience. By the following item which

we find in tbe Bedford Mail, it will

be seen that Bob Marshall, a well

kuown bachelor farmer who resided

for many years south of town, but has been for some time learning the watch-making business with Tobe Smith, was married yesterday in

Bedford :

Cards aro out announcing the marriage

of Robert Marshal and Dovie Dean, at the

M. E. Church in Bedford, June 1st, 1830. By the bye, the printing of these cards, as

a specimen of job work, is the worst we wo have scon lately. The cards woro evi dently not printed in Bedford. Wo hope tho printing in this case, is not a sample of the "poor impression" which married

lifo is to make on tne loving pair, ana mat their happiness will bo of a "type" more satisfactory than that used in the an

nouncement of thoir marriage. That's a joke on the Courier job printing office. It has been suggested by a

gentleman who is good authority on j such matters, that there is danger of injuring the town clock by placing an electric wire upon the tower .to ruu the proposed electric lights above. The clock is of more value to the people than a light On the tower could possibly be, and this question should be thoroughly investigated b.'fore final action is taken.
