i >• Goodtand Herald «ayßjtbatftba ; hogs at Beafleld are dying oft vita * throat disease. John McCarty, of Beaver City Newton county a typo in other days, Made us a pleasant visit yesterday, < <•» —— Windy Dick, of Lafayette, who some time ago robbed thePvn. T. B. Ward of $150.00, and who escaped from the jail «A Lafayette, was captured in Atlanta, Ga., on Wednesday. 1 • —». Recently a Kentucky crank teld a policeman at Washington that he aad came there to assassinate tho Pres • dent, and every Kentuckian in that city was arrested. A comet is now said to be visible by the use of glasses, and can be observed on the meridian about four o’clock and it will be visible to the naked eye in a few days, when it will be seen only in the evening near the western horizen. It is called tho comet of 1812. The Kentland correspondent of the Goodland Herald says: “It takes money to buy whisky" we are informed, and the s areity of moiic’ is doing more for*the cause of temperance than a score ol lecturers. Tho lato Republican Congress last winter did what it could to cheapen that article by taking a considerable portion of the tax from it.

On Saturday evening of week before last Dr. Grant, of Wolcott was abo it mounting his horse, the restive animal jumped aside and the Dr fell, when the horse kicked him in the back of the head inflicting a very painful and;dangerous|wound. D s Didlake, of Monticello, Small, of Woleott, and Patton, of Remington, rendered the neeessary aid. Laporte Argus: Twi dealers in snld cigars were arrested and fined by the «!ty authorities one day last week. It is said that they were playing the old game of selling a box of eig »rs by opening it and taking out t«o or three good ones and showing them for samples when ail the o'ners in the box are . i mparat.vely worth less- It uan old windle but it i 6 often suuces-fully pr-ictiu d. Fowler Er : "lb-' ” 1 ody shirt” it not waved by Republicans .-xiont. noi is it confiuvu io the North. The Yicksburg Post, a consistent Demo cratic pap> r. with nerve enough to speak its orvit lions, says; et<,. In the same manner t ese radical ed tors r-ferred to the contents ol the "States” a violent ‘‘seeesh’' paper published hi Missi«siDyi in the inter est and pay of tu«* Radical Nation©.• C >mmittee Corkius did not copy his "sweet morsel" fromthe Vicksburg Post -in i»ct we believe ue ever saw a copy of it.

Math** of Mississippi, overwbos •udlen the i.opublieau paper® are iu deep »«rrvw, had been e ngaged in an a leujpt'to stir up the blacks against the whites and bring niton* n conflict of races. In a peisonal low —n®t political—it seems he went un der, and the radidal press sorrow as those without hope. Fowler Era: “We hope the next Congress and the country wil be spared another attack of fltz—Johr Porter.” From th* tone of the recent letter of Gen. Grant, and the composition us the next Congress, the radical members of '.hat body will get. “fitz —John Porter” with a vengeance. Justice will be dene Gen. Porter, and the shallow, stay-at-home hypocritical pretenders to leyalty may as well stand from under. Commeating on the manner in which Republicans have gerryman dered the district of New York, the Sun says: "The law reorganizing the Senate districts of this State and reapportion’ng members of the Assembly was passed in 1879. It was unjust to the Democratic part# of the State, as was shown by the Sun at th<u time. For example, the «®un ties of New York and Kings ought to have been allowed eleven Seuatois and forty-two Assemblymen, instead of ten of the former and thirty-six of the latter. allJtheßtpublican Legislatuie would allow them. So it was with other Democratic counties and cities. The greedy Republicans took the lion’s share. This is one of the reasons why tde Democrats some- j times lose the Legislature when they j carry the State ticket. i
