THE EAGLE. "Friday, ji ne as, is<>9. Local &~wii'gcenaneouß. New Advertisements. Auditor’s Exhibit—Wordon. Somebody, the night of Grady's show, shed one of his new boots in the neighborhood of the Clerk’s office, where it may now be found. JtgrTnE Auditor’s annual report of the financial affairs of the county will be found in another place. During its publication our rending matter will be necessarily somewhat abridged. icine manufacturer in this country advertises in twenty-five hundred newspapers, and it is almost needless to add his profits are correspondingly large. A hint to the wise is sufficient—advertise. jtw There was a large attendnnce at the Strawberry Festival Wednesday evening. The ladies deserve credit for the floral decorations ; the strawberries were voted excellent; and the receipts much greater than was expected. The report that has gone abroad that we are refusing to re ceive any more subscribers to this paper is false. We are receiving them upon the old terms, one dol lar and a half in advance. Pass up your cheeks, and give us your names. The Superintendents of the different Sabbath Schools of the county meet at Decatur, Saturday, for the purpose of making arrangements for the meeting of the Adams County Sabbath School Association, on the 12th of August next. learn from the Republican that the question submitted to the people of Jay county by the Board of Commissioners, to subscribe 350,000 to aid in building the C. 11. <fc FL W. railroad through the county, was defeated by a ma j »rity of -137. There was 1823 votes polled. /J-fV Auditor Worden is absent at Winchester attending the Congressional Board of Equalization of this district, We will be able in p. short time to give the correct appraisement of real estate in this •county as modified by the Congressional and State boards of equalization.

£-JT We have heard several complaints from advertisers that their bill are torn down almost as soon as put up; that consequently it is almost useless to post bills in town. People should remember that it costs time and money for this kind of advertising, and that parties who make a practice - of tearing down posters arc liable to line and prosecution. If our business men would make an example rs a few cases, we apprehend they would have no cause to complain in the future. Xy We have had the usual amount of rain during the week, which has retarded the operations of our farmers and further diminished the chances of a good corn crop. The wet weather is bad on wheat, being in great danger of getting struck with the rust, in fact some fields are already reported in that condition. The next week will be a critical time with wheat. Cool, dry weather will ensure a bountiful crop ; and on the contrary warm, wet weather will seriously injure the crop in quantity and quality. Some of those fellows who did the wind-work ot the rebellion two or three years after the war ceased; and who arc supremely patriotic in regard to decorating soldier's graves; who indulge in the small talk of gushing patriotism because it is cheap; aud who indulge in flings and inneudoes In regard to Democratic treason, had better “dry up.” They are “sptfall potatoes” at best. When you hear one of them “blow,” you can safely risk your last dollar that his patriotism never hurt a rebel in the field ; never would tin- j det any emergency that the gov- j ernment could be placed in; t%at< if be was so unfortunate as to be

drafted he lived to fight another day, all because he used his lifepreserver in time—his legs. We like to see enterprising men; men who talk business and mean business ; men who will pay a little more for everything you have to sell and sell you anything you wish to buy a little cheaper than anybody else ; men who will pay you cash for what you have to sell and who sells you goods for cash. They are the kind of men to deal with. We have one such in mind now; Frank Miesse. Frank is selling white fish at 86 a half barrel, warranted to be fresh an l good or money’ refunded; sugar at 14 cents ; rice, 13; prunes, 16; best Rio coffee, 25 ; tobacco 3 cents a plug, and everything else in proportion. Frank has a big stock of Groceries, and is busy fixing up our farmers with supplies for harvest.

“The Universe,” —-The Chicagoan, started over a year since by H. N. F. Lewis, (publisher of the Western Rural,) as a literary weekly, and which has distinguiehed itself for some months past by its discussions of social questions, is to be enlarged and name changed to The Universe. The Chicago Sorosis and Advance Guard have also been purchased to be merged therein. The firsrt issue under the new name, to appear June 21th, will contain a paper by lion. Robert Dale Owen, entitled “Spiritualism a Moral and Social Necessity.” Something on this subject from a man of Mr. Owen’s eminence will attract much attention among all thinkers. Mr. Owen, Epes Sargent, and others, arc to write regularly. There will also be commenced a story involving social questions, entiled -‘JZrtrried’,or A Woman's Deception,'' by Mrs. Caroline F. Corbin, authoe of “Rebecca; A Woman’s Secret, of which the Morning Star, j (the leading Baptist organ,) says: ' —“There arc power, and genius.; and art, and skill, and passion, that show it to be the work of a woman, busy with the great problems which the country cannot es cape.” Every number will also contain two or more completed stories and eketchcr and much other matter The facts given concerning social crimes are sartling. The terms of tie Tie are 82,50 per year, or three months on trial for Fifty’ Cents. Try it three months, or send ten cents for a specimen copy. Address the Publisher, 11. N. F.

Mature iS the Great I’hj sician This is now admitted by the medical profession as a fundamental principle of healing science. It is wisely provided by the human economy that whenever anything is wrong in the physical system the natural forces of the body tire brought to bear :o expel the disease.— Tlie great aim, therefore, is to strengthen the natural powers. This has been kept in view by the skilful compounders of HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS, which operates to give fresh vitality to all the organs of the body. The effect of this medicine upon the stomach, the livct 'and the kidneys, is prompt and decisive. The patient, who is wise enough to quit drugging and try the BITTERS soon feels as if he hid taken a new lease of life, and as he continues the use of the article, lie is overjoyed to find the streams of health coursing through hie frame. It is prepared with great care, and its component partsareentirely vegetable. It is free from the objections so often urged against the preparations of the kind. As a MEDICAL AGENT it has no equal, while its pleasing flavor and healthful effects have made it a general favorite. 'lt is free from all properties calculated to impair the system, and its operations are at once mild, soothing and efficient. All who have used HOSTEFTER'S STOM ACH BITTERS attest its virtues. Even those who are in the enjoyment of perfect health frequently have need to have recourse to tonics as preventives of disease. We are never too well aimed against the assaults of the ills that flesh is heir to. In health Jr sickness tliis tonic can not be taken regularly without giving vitality and elasticity to the system. — TAOSE W IT(CDESIRE BRILLIANCY OF COMPLEXION must purify and enrich the blood, which Helnhold's Cox CENTRATED EXTRACT OF SaRSAVARILLA invariably does. Ask for Ifelml/oldt.— Take no other.
