L— The Carroll county Fair will begin Sept. 9th, 1879. $3,000 in premiums ure offered. »♦»-. .Tames H. Hnoddv, ex-Suporintcnd-ent of Jasper county, has been elected Principal of the Earl Park, Benton county, school. .-«♦*- The average radical is almost as furious over Dixon as he was over Lize Pinkston. Lize was a swamp angel, and Dixon was a thief, a murderer. a liar, and a had man generally. The Republican State Central Committee of Maine is demanding of the Radical National Committee more funds, even If it requires another assessment of the Government employees. Dr. Blackburn, guvernor-eleot Of Kentucky, in answer to the charges of the Republican press in relation to his spreading the yellow fever in the Northern cities during the war, says: “Tho statements are lies, and I don’t care a damn for all the Republican comments in Christendom.”

Cesanave, a saddle-colored mombei of tho perjured returning board of Lousiana, was recently in Wash Ington demanding financial relief.— To prevent a “squeal,” which he threatened, the Fraud contributed SSO-), while John Sherman and otder radicals also responded liberally'. Dixon, after firing five shots at Barksdale, at Yazoo, Mississippi, was killed by a shot from the pistol of his antagonist. And now tho radicals say the Democratic parity did it. Bali! .Suppose the radical party 7 tie held responsible for the Beecher-Til ton,Conkllng-Sprague, and DeYouugKalloeh escapades and fracases, what a lioivl would come up from Africa.

But write to the publisher, requesting a statement of the amount of arrearages, square it up, and the desire to have it. discontinued can be complied with..

OLD SETTLO RS’ MEETING By an announcement, in to-day’s paper, it will be seen that the Old Settler’s Meeting will not beheld at Mr. Benjamin’s grove as previously an-nouiu-ec. Owing to the fact that water can not be obtained in the vicinity of the grove it has been thought best to change the place of holding it to Rensselaer, where water,-shelter, and every other convenience can be provided. Every pains will tie taken to make the occasion pleasant and prolitablu to those who shall attend. The additional distance from the former place of holding the meeting to this place is inconsiderable, and it is hoped that our Newton county friends will avail themselves of the occasion to visit our town whrt© they will meet with a most cordial reception and enjoy the hospitalities of our citizens. Here is an indication of tho respect in which a brave Union soldier, who dares to think for himself, is held by a stay-at home editor of jeT stalwart Radical sheet. It is an extract from an article in the Dayton Journal con-

oerning Gen. liice: “Cti'H. Kiri' lost ;i leg under circumstances, that it is fair to presume, notwithstanding the present attitude of the general toward thos” that shot It oil, that it was a Unicii leg. The enemies of tit© country shot it off in battle, and it is entitled to the prof&undosr respect and regard of all Union soldieto; for it lies mouldering in a Union grave, but Gen. Rice has abandoned the cause for whieh it was lost, and is now assisting those who shot it off in obtaining control of the Government. We must make a distinction between Hire and his lost leg. He having gone back on his Unjon leg, Union soldiers will go back on him. II it he true that there is a mysterious connection between a man and his lost limb, by which sensations are communicated to the brain,, we have no doubt but that Union leg of Gou. Rice’s is doing some vigorou kicking about this time, at the general’s recreancy to the cause for which it was lost. It will he the verdict of the soldiers that the leg is justifiable in kicking under the circumstances.”

Gentlemen: —The committee of general arrangements for the celebration of the formal opening for business of (lie

1., D. & C. R. R. on the 4th day of September, 1879, from Rensselaer to the city of Delphi, have directed me to extend to you, and through you to the citizens of your town, a cordial invitation to be present upon that occasion and ioin in the celebration of that long looked for event which we regard as being not only of importance to us alone, but to all citizens along the line, as the completion ol this last division, now about to be celebrated, will add much to the more rapid construction of the contemplated route to Indianapolis and Chicago. l’lcaso be kind enough to extend to your citizens generally a cordial to be present on the occasion above referred to. I am, gentlemen, with respect, your humble servant, J. T. Richardson, Ch’n Com. Gen. Arrangements.

The Board of Trustees and other officials of our town have accepted the above kind invitations to be present at the formal opening of the 1., D. & C. R’y to Delphi, aud extend a cordial invitation to the citizens of Rensselaer and the county generally to join in the celebration of the important event.

DELPHI’S JUBILEE.

September 4 the Day Designated. Celebrating th Completion of the I , D. St C to this CityDelphi Times. Tho following letter will fall as a soothing balm upon the lacerated patience of the citizens of Delphi. For years we have worked, waited and dreamed for the event now definitely announced for next Thursday week. The shrill whistle of the “Rowland Hughes,” reverberating through the Wabash bottoms, will be the sweetest music that has fallen upon the ears of the people for many years: To the Mayor and Common Council of the City of Delphi: I have the honor of presenting the compliments of the Board of Directors of the 1., D. & C. railway and their thanks to the citizens of the City of Delphi and Deer Creek and Tippecanoe townships for the honest and steadfa-t financial and moral support given by them to the enterprise, and also am instructed to inform, through you, tho citizens of Delphi, Deer Creek and Tippecanoe townships, and other localities who have aided and fostered the enterprise, that the Board of Directors have ordered that the Delphi division of the road, between the city of Delphi and Monticello, be formally opened for business to the city of Delphi on the 4th of Septc-m-. ber, 1879, xnd am further directed by said board to co-opcrate with your honorable body and the citizens of Delphi in any programme that you and they may see proper to adopt for the celebration or this important event in the history of the city and Carroll county. Very truly yours, S. N. Yeoman, General Manager 1. D. & C. RR. Mayor Walker at once called a special meeting of the Council for Wednesday evening. Pursuant to the call, that body assembled at the Council Chamber, and, after a brief interchange of congratulations, adopted the following resolution by a unan-i-tnos vote:

Resolved, That the Mayor be instructed to call a mass meeting of the citizens of Delphi at the Court House on Thursday the 2lsc inst., at seven o’clock p. m., to take action on the communication of Col. 8 N. Yeoman, General Manager of the Indianapolis, Delphi and Chicago railroad, relative to the opening of the division of the road, on the 4th of September, between the city of Delphi aud Monticello. On motion of Mr. Fisher, the Mayor was requested to have printed and efreuiated posters announcing the meeting. So often has the Times congratulated the citizens us Delphi and Carroll county upon the progress of this road that anything further which we might say would almost of necessity be in the nature of repetition As Colonel Yeoman fitly says, the people of Delphi have given the enterprise honest and steadfast financial and moral support. So earnest and unwavering has been this support on the part of our citizens that the Indianapolis, Delphi and Chicago railroad has come to be considered distinctively a Delphi enterprise. Long and patiently have onr people waited, earnestly have they labored, to secure the building of this road, and now, when it has been completed to our city, we may be excused for the indulgence in what might be termed a delirium of enthusiasm. We hope every citizen of the county will heartily endorse the action of the meeting iast night, and, by united effort, make the forthcoming celebration a jubilee to be remembered for years, and made a part of the history of our beautiful city.

DELPHI AND INDIANAPOLIS.

Two TownsliDS In Clinton County Vote the Tax, The Eai'ljr Construction of the Lilie an .Assured FaotDelphi Times. Ou Wednesday morning a dispatch was received by W. F. Lytle, President of the Delphi aud Indianapolis railroa 1 containing thejgratifyiug in--t.eliigeuce that two townships in Clintou county had voted a tax iu aid of the construction of the road. These two townships an £Waiien and Michigan. The projectors or the enterprise have felt assured that they wo’d carry the former, and they were equal ly certain tiat the opposition in the latter was 100 greatto be overcome. The result is consequently an agreeable surprise.. The managers think that after their success in Michigan township they will experience butlirt e trouble throughout the line. The election in Burlington township, this e Minty. takes place on Monday, September 1, and there is not a shadow of d 'ubt that the tax will be voted. The

prospects of the Delphi and Indianapolis railroad have assumed a rosy tinge which every eitizeu of Carroll county will hope may continue until the last rail is laid and the last spike driven.

AN APPEAL FOR AID.

To the ex-Fede&rl Soldiers: Comrades—During our present calamity of a yellow fever epidemic, we appeal to you, comrades, to extend to us a ready and helping hand. Our families are suffering, either languishing with fever, or starving for the want of bread. We have formed our own relief association, known as the ex-Federal Relief Association, of Memphis. Every one of us applicants has had the yellow fever. Do you desire us to camp, aged and intirm, as the most of us are? Men who have fought on the plains of Mexico, we appeal to you. We do not indorse the way and manner in which charitable contributions sent to this blighted city are expended. Forward your contributions to our treasurer, Captain I. B. Sloan, 35th lowa Vol., office, 42 North Court street, Memphis, Tennessee. H. F. Hill, Capt. 9tL 111. Cav., Chairman. Da. A. H. B. Kuehne, Secretary. B. E. Speedy, Co. E, 33d 111. Yds., W. B.

INTERESTING TO MARRIED WOMEN.

A question of considerable interest to married women throughout the State is pending in the United States court, involving their rights in real estate owned by their husbands who have gone into bankruptcy, and held at the time of filing the petition. Until the law of 1875, a married woman was compelled to await the death before she could receive her share in his real estate. As the law now stands she takes an undivided one-third of his real estate in fee simple immediately upon a “judicial sale’’ of her huedand’s iuterest being made, and may have partition as though he were dead. The question raised is whether the bankruptcy of the husband and the sale made by the assignees are a “judicial sale” within the meaning of the law. It has been held by Judge Elliot, of the Superior Court, that the sale of the real estate by the assignee is a jddicial sale, and entitles a wife to partition. Under the bankrupt law a dead fs- executed by the judge or register in the court, of the bankrupt’s property to the assignee. It is claimed that this alone entitles the wife to partition, and it is this particular question that is under consideration by Judge Gresham. —[Indianapolis Journal.

The Chicago Tribune says: The appointment of persons from civil life to vacant second lieutenancies tu the army has caused much criticism. The law provides for the promotion of meritorious non-commissioned officers, and contemplates the appointment of civilians only in case of the failure of candidates from the former class. Yet it seems to be the practice of the War Department to ignore the non-eOmtnissioned officers altogether, and look out for young men of good families in search of a career. This usage is not only in violation of law, but very injurious to the morale of the army. In a republican army there ought to be some chance for merit in the ranks to be rewarded. The gr *atest general of modern times—Napoleon Bonaparte—believed in this principle thoroughly, and it was well known in his x army that there was no place to which a brave man aud a good soldier might not aspire.

The Maine farmers do not quite understand John Sherman’s financial conclusions. The Boston Globe tells the farmers all about it when it says “the unindebted farmer is quite as rich now, with a farm valued at $2,500, as he was ten or twelve years ago, when his farm was valued at SSOOO, mortgaged for $2,500, is to-day not worth a cent. Not that his farm has shrunk in real value till it cannot pay the debt, but that the debt has expanded in value till it absorbs the farm. It is just this for which they thank John Sherman and his party.” Tell not your secrets in a corn-field; it has a thousand ears. A judge, sentencing a man to death, observed: “Prisoner at the bar you will soon have to appear before another and a better judge,” % . Congressman De La Matyr, of this State, is delivering Greenback speeches in Maine. As he is a Methodist clergyman in good standing he was invited to preach in the First Methodist Church in Bangor last Sunday week. Republican managers, at the instigation of Senator Blaine, had the >nvitation revoked. There was much indignation at this action, and. in response to an invitation by citizens, De La Matyr preached in Norombega Hall at night. It is the largest hall in the city, and was filled to oveiflowing, notwithstanding a heavy rain storm was raging.

Taking Time by the Forelock.

Coming events cast their shadows before, and already, through the mists of months, the gladsome Holiday aeason looms cleaier day by day, filling the youthful mind with pleasing speculation, and causing materfamilias to consider in what direction she can exercise a little additional economy, whereby tha money for presents may be forthcoming when required. And just in the nick of time there comes to hand,a suggestion of how Johnny, and Mamie, and Flossie, and Charley may secure for themselves and by their own exertions, the jack knives and work boxes, and writing cases, and tool chests, for whieh their souls are loDging; of how mamma may get that book or parlor ornament she has talked about so often; and of how, by tbeir united exertions they may obtain a piesent wherewith to surprise and gladden the soul of papa. For the publishers of Ehrichs’Fashion Quarterly are in the field with the new premium list of their magazine and ail that mamma or children (or papa either for that matter) need do, is iosond name and address on a postal card to Messrs. Ehrich & Co., of 287 Eighth Avenue, New York, when a copy of the list will be mailed them free, and they can appreciate for them? selves the advantages offered. The Fashion Quarterly so exactly fills its place as a guide to economy in the household, and its subscription price, only 50 cts. a year, is so very trifling, that little difficulty should be experienced in securiug.subseriptions; and we have no doubt that thousands will gladly avail themselves of the opportunity thus presented of securing some useful article at a very moderate expeuse of time and Rouble.
