Bobo, 1,158. There was no opposition. JtyThoso subscribers who promised us wood all winter and failed to bring it, are informed that the cash will answer our purpose quite as well now. This is not intended as a dun—only; well come aud see ns and we will ex plain. X3T Monday was as cold blustering and snowy a day as the past winter could boast of. The snow fell four inches deep. Tuesday morning several parties indulged in the luxury of a sleighride ; toward evening they returned home looking for buggies. £3TTbe following is the financial report of donation and supper held in this place on ths 18th, inst, for Rev.

He is making good progress in learning to manage the machine,juid in due time will have it under perfect control. /UTThe residence of Samuel Moses, of Root township, was burned on last Sunday night, together with its entire contents, including furniture, wearing apparrel, and their meat and grain for rammer use, besides various other articles. The loss is about 81,200and was not insured. It is mat known how the house took fire, as the family were absent at church at the time and returned only to find everything in ashes.---A subscription is being circulated in his favor which is being liberally respon led to by our citizens. <3TWc have not yet received the official returns of the special elections in this county, but enongh to indicate that Messrs. Bird and Bobo will have a majority of 1,100. We shall endeavor A to give the official return, but may j not receive it in time. There was no opposition ticket here, consequently the Democratic vote was not all out Had there been the ■ majorities of these gentlemen would have been greater than they now are. Scattering Republicans who*fnil to approve of negro suffrage voted with us, and had there been opposition, upon this issue, many others who remained away from the polls, would, had they voted, opposed the measure. Tho people of Indiana are not ready to embrace the gentlemen from Africa clothed in civil, political •ad social equality, if it is an old : fogy notion. Mrs. Jeremiah Ash, the wife of a wealthy farmer living ten miles north of Fort Wayne* was accidentally killed Thursday morning. She was doing her morning work in the house, and in some manner I discharged a loaded gun, the con- 1 tents entering her breast, and, it j la supposed, caused Instant death. She was found on the floor dead by her husband, who was on the farm at the tfroe ofthc accident.

? ' State Items. Marion county is to have a new asylum at a cost of 840,000. The small-pox is rapidly disappearing in New Albany. Fruit in Decatur comity was badly injured by the recent cold spell. Fifteen hundred persons have been vaccinated at Richmond in the past two weeks. A man 67 years old has been arrested in Harrison county for attempting to commit a rape. In Salem, recently, the Methodist received, at a protracted meeting, 110 additions to their church. . William Monitor, a German, living in Barkley township, Jasper county, became insane a short time since, owing to religious excitement. ) " A Vanderburgh county man planted 24 bushels of potatoes in three acres of ground, and raised 633 bushels. The work of grading the North Vernon and Jefferson railroad is I b progressing rapidly. The labor ers are working as far down as Charleston. There are thousands of wild geese in Jasper county feeding on tho unshucked corn in the fields. Sportsmen are having splendid sport shooting them. i Mrs. Fancy Railsback, who recently died at Richmond, aged 63, was the oldest native born citizen of Wayne county, having been born in 1806, 40 rods west of the state line. The teacher of Princeton college was severely stabbed by a pupil, on Monday afternoon, while lie was punishing him for some violation of the rules. The wound will prove fatal. John McArthur, a son of Councilman McArthur, of Indianapolis, I accidentally shot himself in climbI ing over a fence, about a mile • north of that city, last Thursday i afternoon. The wound was a fai tai one, the victim living but a ; moment. He was about 14 years I old, and was a page in the house 1 j of representatives at the late ses--1 ' sion of the legislature. Last Saturday afternoon a child * i five years old, son of Mr. John ' | Stoll, of Wabash, got hold of a pistol bclonging’to his father, and ; was trying to crack a walnut with ' it. and in doing so discharged its ! contents, the ball passing in just ' above the hip and coming out at [ the back. The little sufferer sur- ' vived until Sunday morning at 4 . i o'clock. ■I On Wednesday evening, about, five o'clock, while Thomas Easton was engaged in burning down a 1 tree on his farm, two miles south , ; of Clinton, on the west side of the , | Wabash, it unexpectedly fell upon | him, fracturing his skull, from : which injury be died soon after being removed to the house. He ■ leaves a wife and several children with a farm about half paid for. At Rockville, on Sundhy evening Inst, while the venerable Rev. W. A. Smith was preaching in the Methodist church, a small bird was seen flitting around the room, when suddenly it began to circle above the minister's head, and ■ rested on his right shoulder. Remaining perched for a minute, it again arose,-made the circuit of the room, when it alighted on a gentleman in the audience, who took it in hand and restrained the little intruder of its liberty until the conclusion of the service. A couple of young colored bucks, Win. Mclntosh and John Keller, in puppy 1c ve, and residing ; outside of New Albany, on Wednesday night got into an altercation about a bronze damsel. The former made for Keller with a razor, who beat a hasty retreat and was I caught while climbing a fence, and held by Mclntosh’s brother until he hacked his rival over the face and neck, and disfigured biin so badly as not to bo presentable to Dinah.

A Malarious Month. March, that givens us a .new President, is also the inaugural month of many hJitrassing disorders. Eatangled in its fogs are the seeds of coughs, colds, and of that alternation of frigidity and tiro, more widely known than admired, called fever and ague. The only way to avoid these “little unploasantnescs,” is to render the system strong enough to fight off the atmospheric poison that produces them, and the best way to en dow at with this repellent power is to 'tone it with HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS. If a wayfarer were credibly .informed that a ruffian was waiting at the next corner, he would doubtless turn in his tracks, and take a safer route to his destination. With just about the same amount of trouble, tire attacks of diseases prevalent at this season may be evaded. Nay, the trouble will be less, for drug stores lie in every one's route, and every respectable druggist in the Union keeps on hand HOSTETER'S BITTERS. The article is a staple of trade, and it would be as iasy to find a grocery without sugar, as the store of an apothecary without this popular tonic remedy. In view of the experience of the nation with regard to the article, during the space of twenty years, it seems almost unnecessary to recapitulate its merits to Americans. But as our population is increasing at the rate of a couple ■ of millions a year, in the natural way and by emigration, it may be as well to hint to the rising generation and new arrivals, (the old settlers know all about it,) that HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS is the most wholesome and and potent vegetable tonic ever manufactured; that it is a specific for debility, dyspepsia, biliousness, aud misasmatic fevers; that it prevents, as well as cures, these complaints and their complications; that it is not “bad to take,” and is absolutely harmless. rjpO PHYSICIANS. New York, August 15th, 1867? Allow me to call your attention to my ; PREPARATION OF COMPOUND EXTRACT BUCHU. The component parts] are BUCHU, Long Leaf, CUBEBS, I JUNIPER BERRIES, Mode of Preparation.—Bucbu, in vacuo. Juniper Berries, by distillation, j io form a fine gin. Cubebs extracted by ' displacement by liquor obtained from i I Tuniper Berries, containing verv little ' sugar, a small proportion of spirit, and ; i more palatable than any now. The ac- ‘ j tive properties are by this mode ex- ! traded. Bucbu, as prsparedby Druggists gen- ! orally, is of a dark color. It is a plant j that emits its fragrance; the action of a ! flame destroys this (its active principle) ■ leaving a dark and glutinous decoci ion. I Mine is tho color of ingredients. The i Buchuin tuy preparation predominates; | the smallest quantity of the other in- ! gradients are added, to prevent, fermen i tation; upon inspection, it will be found • not to boa Tincture, as made in Phar- i i tnacooee, nor is it a Syrup—and there- | j fore can be used in eases where fever or I | iuflaination exists.. In this, you have; i the knowledge of the ingredients and the mode of preparation. Hoping that you will favor it with a i trial, and that upon inspection it will I meet with your approbation, - -With a feeling of confidence, I in, very respectfully. H. T. HELM BOLD.
