E. church, Saturday, June sth. /grCrabbs Moses & Rice received a heavy stock of new goods last week. They are going off like hot cakes. J&rThe ladies of the M. E. church are circulating a subscription for the purpose of repairing the church. It is proposed, we understand, if the funds can be raised, to put on a new roof, repair the seats, whitewash, paper and paint the church. The repairs arc much needed ; but from what we saw ol the subscriptions in circulation, the ladies will be minus a couple of pair of shoes, each, before the .required sum is raised. IV' o hope -they will succeed, but confess we are fearful that they will fail.

£3Fk New York Radical paper, wonderful to relate, acknowledges, w “all things considered” that •“there is less cfl-iinc South Carolina, Alabama and even in Georgia than in this state, or other parts of the North.” If, as last year, there was an important election pending, and it was necessary to fire the northern heart, there would bo some merit in the admission ; as it is it amounts to nothing. The old dame’s remark .about the cow and grindstone might be told to the Times, which makes the confession. is quite as much Radical growling in regard to Secretary Boutwe 11 as Secretary Boric The former has offendedthe bondholders by soling the surplus r gold in the treasury and purchasing bonds in the market with greenbacks, which does not satisfy the bondholders, who declare the must be redeemed in gold, only. To show their dissatisfaction they have undertaken to bull the gold market, and succeeded in running gold up to 115, last week; but if Boutwell throws his millions of -Ik gold upon the market regularly they will have to finally go under. This action of Boutwell ignores the radical platform, am? is a partial adoption of the democratic theory, which of course is beneficial to the government and taxpayer ; and consequently distasteful to the bondholder. We hope Boutwell will Lave the nerve to continue on in the even tenor of his way. Or A t a regular meetng of the Trustees of the Town of Decatur, held May 19tb, the Board ordered a side walk to be built, commencing on the corner of Monroe and Fifth thence North along the West'Sido'of Sixth street as fur as the street is laid out At their meeting, May 20th, it was ordered that the Marshal proceed to notify all parties to repair their side-walks to the satisfaction of ♦he said Marshal, within sixty days from date of notice. TUe Board ordered the Town Assessor to asses the real estate” with improvements to Jan.

stranger well mounted made his appearance here Sunday, remaining over night, and offered hishorsftfor sale. On Monday, a horse answering the description of the one he rode was inquired for, which had been stolen in the neighborhood of Lagansport, but the stranger and bis horse had disappeared. » £3TThe Commissioners of Jay county have called an election, to be held under the provisions of the new Railroad law, to take the sense of the voters of the county in regard to levying a tax to aid in the construction of the Cincinnati, Richmond and Ft. Wayne railroad, through the county. Good Advice. —At the installation of a Baptist minister, in Lower Canada, quite recently, the following advice was given to the congregation. The reverend speaker said; ‘ Dear brethern, I suggest that you pray . for. your minister daily ; guard* his reputation carefully; hear him preach weekly; listen to the Word wakefully;labor with him pathetically, both individually and collectively ; support the Sabbath school heartily ; pay him promptly; give him a bit of meat and a ball of butter oc casionally; call on him frequently, but tarry briefly; greet. him cordially but not rudely—and may the God of all grace bless you abundantly, and add unto you daily such as shall be saved eternally.

Without a Good Digestion All other’temporal blessings arc com paratively worthless.- The dyspeptic millionaire who has tried all the potions of the medical profession in vain, and believes his complaint to be incurable. would give half his fortune to be freed from the horrors of indigestion, and thus enabled to employ the other half. Os course he trould. Perhaps HOSTETTER’S STOMACHBITTERS has been recommended to such a sufferer. Possibly he has turned from the friend who made the seggestion with a sneer, Intimating that he has no>faith in any “patent medicine.' If this has been the case much the worse for him. His incredulity dooms him to a life of misery. All the luxuries which wfalth cun purchase are at his command. Not one ot them can give him pleasure. His own irrational obstinacy is bis bane. The masses, happily for themselves, are less skeptical. There is such a thing as bigoted unbelief, as well as bigoted credulity and a golden mean between the two, whichmen and women who arc gitted withcommon sense adopt and profit by. These are the class that patronize and recommend HOSTETTER’S BITTERS. Why do they approve this famous antidyspepticand anti-billions preparation? Simply because they have not been too much the slaves of scnselness prejudice to give it a fair trial, and have found that when all other tonics, stimulants and stomachics failed, it produced the desired effect. “Strike, but hear,’’ said tne Roman sages, when his ignorant enemies were assailing him. “Doubt, but try, says the man who has been cured of indigession, or intermittent fever, by the Bit. ters as he relates his experience of the medicine to his invalid friends. Mho ever is so wedded to his own foregone theoretical conclusions, as to decline to test the proprieties of a medicine endorsed by the testimony of intelligent men in every walk of life, and approved by the people at larg, deserves to suffer. TAOSE W IO DESIRE BRILLIANCY OF COMPLEXION must purify and enrich the blood, which Helxbold's Cox cestrated Extract of Sarsaparilla invariably does.
