A GOOD Among tlje many business houses in our city worthy to be pronounced yood, is the well-known lirm of Dohcrty & Deighton, on Washington street. This firm is constantly turning out -some of the linest. and best work in the "shape of carriages, wagons, etc., made in the
West. Their trade in agricultural implements is immense, as a stroll through their rooms and the large amount daily taken from their shops abundantly testify. .A visit to their place of evening's will be amply repaid by a sight at their stock.

COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.—'The Council was in session last Monday evening. The Mayor and Couneilmen were all present. A report was received from the committee on public improvements in regard to the grading and graveling Pike street west of West street. They report the work completed. The Street Commissioner made his bi-weekly report, in which he reports sixteen persons as having worked upon the streets, and forty-five as having commuted, two paid by election certificates, and thirtyseven dollars and a half expended. Houston & Co. were allowed forty dollars fortyfour cents for timber for culverts. Jacob Hughes was allowed ten dollars as one years' rent for stray pen. Geo. Porter requested to be exempt from labor 011 the highway. Request refused. 3ir. Filzpatriek complained that North street, between Green and Washington, was obstructed by buildings. Complaint referred to committee 011 public improvements.
PLAXIXG MILL AXD FURNITURE FACTORY.—We had frequently heard on the street that our city could equal any other of the same size in the State, in the way of a Planing Mill and Furniture Factory since the enterprising firm of Wm. Robertson & Co. had begun operations. Having a curiosity to sec their new machinery at work, we took a stroll in that direction last week, notwithstanding the thermometer stood at 102 degrees in the shade. After making inquiry for the place, and being directed to the west end of Pike street, we soon found ourself amid the "noise and confusion" of rip saws, scroll saws, cut-ofl saws, morticing machines, boring machines, turning lathes, planing machinery, and what else more butpractical planing mill men could remember. We were shown the extensive establishment by one of the gentlemanly proprietors, Mr. Bryant, from whom we learned that the entire cost of the building and machinery will be in the neighborhood of ten thousand dollars. The building is forty by eightylour feet and two stories high, besides the engine room, twenty by thirty feet. Besides all the pharaphenalia of their factory, they have a Newbury engine and boiler, the same which carried off the first prize at the Paris Exhibition. The machinery is not quite all in running operation, but will be in a short time. It will pay any one to visit the establishment and sec for tliemselves. Visitors will find the proprietors and attaches obliging and accommodating.
TOWN TRIFLES.
"Trifles, light as air." Jj
—Hot! —Hotter! —Hottest,! v* —Ilotterest! —Hottentot —Hottentotercst! If —Ilot as an oven!

—Hot as two ovens! —Hot as Phweugh! The Trifler can't conjugate it! It's regular gridiron weather! As hot as love in August—and those who have tried that say it is "hotter than llugcns," and "Jlugcns" are said to be the most voleaniky things outside of that country where tltey don't rake up their fire of nights! It is too'hot to be out of doors too hot to stay in the house too hot to work (except to play liase Ball) too hot to play too hot to eat, to sleep, or to—110, not too hot to drink, judging from the crowds at every lager beer saloon in town. It is too hot to lie a-bed, too hot to talk, to write, to think—in short it is too hot for anything. You can't find any such thing as a breeze anywhere in town. Jo COSE went out buggv-riding with another woman two nights ago, hoping that his wife would hear of i.t and raise a "breeze" at home, but twasn't no use. His wife said she would be mad, but it was altogether too hot! —Several accidents have happened during the present heated term in this locality, among which the
Trifler notes: The mercury
went up to 102 miles above zero 137 pounds of lily white, pearl paste, cheek rouge, &e., were melted from fair faces and floated away in little 'rivulets of perspiration off from rosv checks, down to—don't know where the fattest member of the Court-House-Yard-Loafiiiir-Clul) forgot to get ice enough in the cellar of his stomach early in the morning, the sad consequence was that he dissolved all awav, and his companions have 110 comfort only the hope that he is not entirely wasted but may yet be jiscd as a sort of liquid concentrated lye several Democrats, of faith heretofore tried and true, were known to have drank water, and it is feared the "surprise" to their stomachs will prove fatal the Trifler's chum GUY S. QUTUS in an unguarded moment, while going to dinner, stopped to rest, leaned up against a hot wall, and melted almost instantly, and was dipped up in a tub to be preserved for colored hair oil and several of the properest folks in town were heard wishing to themselves that Sugar Crcelc would run through them five minutes and several other things happened too sweaty to mention. —I11 this connection (for he presumes that evervbodv is cussing or discussing the hot weather )"the Trifler recalls a parody of Byron's stanza commencing:
Oh, that the desert were ray dwelling place, With one fair spirit for ray minister, That I raisrht forget the human race,
And, hating no one, love but only her.
It is apropos to the season, and he gives it: Oti 1 that an ice-house were m.v dwelling place,
With sherry cobbler for my minister, That I might all forget my sweltering face, And hatmg
110
drink, love but only her!
Yc "elements," in whose ennobling "stir" I feel myself "exalted," can ye not Accord me such [state of] being? Do I err
In deeming that an ice-house Is not hot,
Though in one for to dwell can rarely be our lot? —During the "blow" that prefaced the rain storm on Wednesday last, the Trifler was hurrying, along Market street, when he saw a lady in full chase after a r.uit of false curls, which the wind had ungallantly taken from their fastenings, and with which the storm was "playing fantastic, tricks before high heaven." The services of a fleet-footed bov were called into requisition, and after a sharp cliase the truant ornaments were blown against the Richardson House corner, where they were captured and"returned to their excited owner.
Duplex lioops and painted faces. Patent calves and foreign curls Palpitators, costly laces,
Tell too plainly what are girls.
—Referring to girls, reminds the Trifler that the matrimonial market has been rather dull of late. Advances have not been made, and consequently there has been no declining. A bachelor friend of P. W.'s changed his lodgings last week upon learning that a young and charming widow had taken up lier abode next door with the determination to take advantage of leap year privileges. The Trifler also heard of a sentimental but nervous young man attending Wabash College (and holding over during vacation), who consulted a 'squire as to the propriety of instituting legal proceedings against two young ladies for throwing kisses at him. The- 'squire advised the young man to return tlicni, and said he must have forgotten this is leap year, and "the girls mav set their caps and braid their curls, to catch a beau. —As a general thing, babies follow matrimony, and the one reminds the Trifler of the other. He wishes it understood that he loves a baby—not one of your sour, suspicious, squalling specimens—but a bright, rosv, dimpled things full of fun and frolic, running over with glee, aud of such a confiding, unsuspecting disposition as not to refuse to go to anybody. What can be more refreshing in this busy, tiresome world, than an occasional romp with a baby—a letting down, as it were, of the cords of the mind until it vibrates in unison, and then holding a confidential chat in the real baby vernacular then to have a couple of white, chubby arms thrown around your neck, and a pair of rosy lips, fresh as rose-buds ere the dew has left them, presented for a kiss! The man who can't think of it without a softening of the heart, and a watering of the mouth, is no better than the swine before which the pearl is cast, and the Trifler hopes such a man may never beblessed with a baby or if lie is, let it be a kicking, pugilistic baby, one skilled in the art of gouging, who takes delight in running his thumbs into your eye. There now, the Trifler has said his "prettiest" in favor of the "little prattlers," and said it in the appropriate place, for babies properly come under the head of Town Trifles. —In the way of amusements,.we have had during the week a llttlcrbf the "biirjtti cork opera" by "LaRufe's' Minstrels"—legitimate artists in their line, who played two evenings to small but appreciative audiences. With the troupe is an excellent cpiartctte, as good as any quartette traveling. The "song and dance man" is good, and is a show in himself. The Trifler's hat was not chalked, and he considers he got double his money's worth—first, in the entertainment given by the Minstrels, and also in witnessing the enjoyment they afforded to a mirthloving individual who sat in his rear in fact, that was the best part of the show. P. W. wishes that individualjhad been in New York, with Jo and himself,'to have seen the "White Fawn"! —Speaking of minstrels, our town has an addition to its musical organizations in the 'Dutch Band,' as its members style it. Their serenades are unique, and will be more so when they introduce. al"8yfei Nettej" the music reminds one inuchly of the To mis Catte chorus. —The Trifler suggests to the county officials that they might with as much propriety increase the county's revenue by collecting rent, for the use of the court house yard as a eockipit, as to rent the fence lor bulletin-boards for a show. True, the showmen are not citizeus, and those who run the "chicken ring" are, but what's the difference —Our town is well supplied with barber shops, and the' tohsorial professors therein are all that BeauBrummel could ask, but it would be a good idea if some of them would fix up a bat h-house. Going to the mill-pond is a nice arrangement for the livery men, but the bath-house would be a public convenience that would pay the proprietor a handsome per centage. —It's hot! and getting hotter!

ALAMO TATTJLIXGS.
"No more regarded than passing wind, or flying clould&j'? lisetlto btf ^tckn implying indifference, but hereaway it is applicable to our state of mind 110 longer. When one's corn and vegetables are dying for want of rain and one can see good rains passing all around, "the passing wind and flying clouds'? beeopie mattcrs|pf supreme importance.' Some pol-tibns ofcmr towiship have been blessed with plenteous showers, while our town and immediate vicinity have had none at all. —Marion Watson,our Democratic Trustee,. says he tab Seymour now than ho could lieCore the New' "fork Convention. Well, Marion, vou will see See More still this fall, for we intend to Grant you leave to See More of the Salt River country than you have ever seen before. a —Joel Tucker has Sold Bis pice llttle farm, adjoining fo\vn,' to Samuel" Truax. Welcome back to Ripley, Sam, you never should have left it. —A wealthy uncle, in South America,
gave our young friend Byers a huge stock of greenbacks. After looking the great West over in search of a location, Byers purchased the splendid farm of John Britton, west of Youutsville. Sensible young man, that. —On Thursday evening, July 16th, Tom Fisliero, being weary of the cares aud buttonless shirts of single life, took 3Iiss Sarah Clark for "better or for worse." Saturday night manv disappointed lovers, whom Tom had "laid 111 the shade," gave him a serenade. "I11 other words, in boyish glee,
They gave a rustic chiviari." —What does R. J." Fink now think about Seymour, taking "a tilt at the Democracy," as Reuben expressed it, on election day last spring? —Items of Alamo gossip, addressed to Tom Tattler and dropped in the Alamo I*. O., will receive due attention. —Robert Hobnail's hors« fell into a stock well on the farm of J. A. Gilkly, breaking his neck—the horse's neck, not Gilkey's. —Mr. Dohcrty delivered a lecture 011 Modern Spiritualism, Sunday last, at Bunker Hill School House. Whether selling reapers or lecturing, Dohcrty is a brick.
TOM TATTLEU.
[TOM'S "TATTLIXGS" have induced another correspondent at Alamo to give the "gossip" of the village. The late hour at which POLLY' ANN'Sgossipy letter reached us, compelled the penciling orrt of a greater portion of it.—ED. JOURNAL.]
ALAMO GOSSIP.
—I noticed in the last number of the Jou uNAL, a few items from our town. When I read TOM'S"Tattlings," I was prone to exclaim, as did the Queen of Sheba, 011 a certain occasion, "Lo! the half has not been told." Thereupon I seized my pen and thought I would endeavor to give you the news of the town for this week's issue. —When our new Academy is finished wc intend to call together our forces and make our Literary Society the wonder of the world! Won't people wonder to see the "erst time" plain village changed into a brilliant city, replete with literary merit and abounding in resorts adapted to please the eye, ravish"the ear and elevate the taste of its" denizens —Among the improvements of Alamo our old Methodist Church has not been forgotten. It has stood here about sixteen or seventeen years and never had a bell on it, but many a one in it. This summer it has received a new bell, a new roof, new iiaint, and a new pulpit cushion the latter presented by Miss Anna Raintree. —Speaking of llaintrees, Charlie says he didn't mind their runaway being in TIIK JOURNAL, if the writer had told the truth. It was his horses, and not Wesley's, which ran away. Charlie wants to give his horses a reputation. I presume lie wants to sell them. —We arc still wanting rain. Oh, for one little shower! Gardens are needing it badly. Potato bugs are plentiful. No sooner had the locusts departed from our midst than another plague came in the shape of thoe bugs. What will destroy them't —Wc had a wedding in our town 011 Saturday evening. Mr. Thomas Fisliero was married to Miss Sallie Clark, "all of this city." Not many were guests present, only a few who just happened in. The bride looked beautiful in her ne*v dress and white ribbons. Tom looked scared. We had sueli fun at the wedding. Afe went home about eleven o'clock, as wc thought, to enjoy otir peaceful slumber but, alas, for'human hopes. About-un hour after wc had retired, night was made hideous by screnaders under the windows of the happy pair. Sleigh bells jingled, cow bells rattled, dinner horns played bass, Mn pans resounded, the chorus assisted by a violin. The entertain ment lasted about an hour, in the midst of which poor sleepy Tom went to the window and said in a pitiful voice, "Boys, what will you take, to don't?" But the boys wouldn't don't till they got ready. Tom won't marry again till "se'renadefs" go out fashion. He didn't like them. —1 must not forget to tell you what effect the 4th at your city had on some of our eiti zens. It made them hunyry. They went expecting to partake of a feast, but when they came there they were like old Mother Hubbard's renowned dog—found the cupboard (or table rather) bare! If it had been on any other day than the glorious old Fouth, I expect some of the hungry herd would have let their "angry passions risi but they didn't. POLLY AXX
P. S. (A woman must have a "P. S.," you know.) Three hours later. The rain has come at last. Everything looks refreshed and thankful. A good time to pull weeds and I'm going to the garden. POLLY.
LADOGA ITEMS.—We copy the following from the Herald of last Thursday: The wheat in this vicinity is nearly all in the shock. Threshing will begin about the middle of next week.
The Ladoga butchers dropped to 15 cents per pound for best cute yesterday mornin Mr. Benj. Fletcher, who lives a few miles west of town, was sun struck on Tuesday. Our informant says he is in a critical condition.
Dr. English has returned home from the West. We learn he bought property in Desmoine, Iowa which place he will remove to some time this fall.

excellent medicinal cutnpouiMl v.-as first prepared by Ir. J. W. l'Ol.ANf, in 3847, nd was then employed with grea!. success in xpclling Inimors from the tlood Inil in 181S a ictlical friend who was quite celebrated as a ph\\«i ian, especially in the treatment of Inimors, digested some important, improvements, which were dopted, ::nd which has made it (so the people say) lie very best remedy for all kinds of humors known 0 the faculty/'
This preparation is composed entirely of vegetates, among which arc Sarsaparilia, Yellow Dock, foble I'ine, Mandrake, aud Dloodroot.
When the originator lived in New Hampshire, at Joflstown Centre, for the space of thirty or forty ailes around, and in Manchester particularly, the Junior Doctor was well known and highly valued or the numerous and wonderful cures which it. elected. Though manufactured in large, (juantilies, he supply was frequently exhausted, and purchasers had to wait for more to be made. In that reion, some very severe cases of Erysipelas were reated with, —and tliey were cured) Erysipelas ores, or carbuncles, those ugly, painful ulcers, -were entirely removed wherever this medicine vas faithfully used. So it was with Scrofula and ialt-Rhcum. The Humor Doctor cured them.
It is free lTom any dangerous drugs, is pleasant to he taste, safe, yet sure and effective in its action.
