DICKENS—OPERA HOUSE.

Rensselaer, March 29, *BB6.

I Dickens! The Dickens! i Go to the Dickens! \ The Dicxens! at £he Opuera House.

In the Washington general and personal of the Indianapolis News it is stated: “Hon. Thos. J. Wood, of Crown Point, has written a letter to a friend here, in which he states that he will be a candidate for congressional honors at the approximating nominating convention.”

Senator Beck the other day proceeded to wipe the floor with Edmunds, on the dispute between President and the Senate, when the Vermonter tried to plead the sanctity of the Executive session as a protection against the terrific onslaughts of the Kentuckian.— Mr. B. disclaimed being out of order, and gave notice that in Executive session he would move to to transfer the papers called for to the open session. These papers will show that the republican appointee had been passed over without confirmation, and why. — It raised a bowl.

Monticello, last week suffered a severe loss tn the death of D. D. Dale, Esq., a gent eman of great enterprise, and the energy to push to a succesful result whatever he he undertook to accomplish. Generous and open-handed, he kept himself poor by his readiness to help others. Politically, he was a Democrat, and as an organizer had no equal in the district He served two terms as Clerk of the White Circuit Court, and one term as Secretary of the State Senate. We were long and intimately acquainted wit him, and his sudden demise we deeply deplore.

The Dickens! on the 29th of March. Go to the Dickens! on the night of the 29th of March. Be sure to help the Dickens along.

The weather continues to be of the finest. 'The song of the blue-bird and the robin is heard throughout the land. The wild goose crop is ri°e, and judging from the sound of guns, hunters are reaping a rich harvest. The western fever seems to continue to rage with unabating v o lence, and is about to carry away Misses Anna and Mattie Henkle, who are contemplating emigration to Kansas. The Township Entertainment which took place last Saturday night was very good. The essays and recitations by the graduates were excellent. Music was furnished by John and Lucy Healey, of Rensselaer.

Editor Sentinel: The Republian of tqe 4th inst., c ontained an rticle from the pen of “Your Brether,” in a ver / weak way denying that the “bogus tickets” of 1884 was the work of Republicans and that in the absence of any explanatory denial it must have been a “Democratic trick.” “Your Brother” knows the form of heading of these tickets was prepared especially f r the printing of the Republican tickets, and that similarity of certain “ear-marks” in the Simon P-ure . and the ‘bogus’ gives the whole thing away, henc Q he does not very strenuously press his insinuations. “Your Brother” knows, too, that these tickets were distributed among Republicans in the townships, between midnight and daylight on the morning of the election, by Republicans who would not bow t > the dictates of the “boss” and his henchmen.

“Your Brother” further says: “If ‘You g Democrat’ will come in at the open door, we will permit him to be the progressive citizen of the nation rather than the slave of confederates; a free man rather than an apologist for trickery. In the wards of Bensselaer and the people’s colleges in Marion township, the doors will be open at 7 p. w., March “9, £BB6. Come,” etc. In answer to his invitation we will say that we are not a resident of Marion township and never have been. Our first vote was cast in Union township, in ’B2, and we have never voted at any other precinct. “Your Brother” might be well employed in casting an eye over the confederate gang with which he is allied. Ackerman, Grant’s attorney genera] ; Key, Hayes’ postmaster general, both confederate brigadiers; Moseby, the guerilla who fought under a black flag, republica . consul to Hong Kong; Orr, Holden, Longstreet, Northrup, Henderson, Settle, ’Lize Pinkston, Agnes Jenks, Billy Mahoue, and thousands of other confederates, all held positions of trust and profit under republican administrations, as well as the distribution of government patronage in their respective states. What a lovely sight to witness—these loyal(?) men who, on one side of the line denounced the flag as a “flaunting lie,” the Union “in league with hell,” the Constitution “a covenant with death,” and those on the other side who took them at their word and attempted to withdraw, now clasp hands in the desire for plunder. Loyalty, eh? It makes us smile every time we hear any of these fellows boast of their loy-

Union Township, ) March "7, JJJBB6. | Editor Sentinel: The people of Union are anxiously awaiting the coming of the fair young maiden, Spring, so that they may be relieved of the necessity of furnishing provender for their stock. There is c nsiderable talk of starting a ditching plow in this township this spring. Go in, gentlemen; no better field could be f m>d for such an -nterpfise. The migratory ducks and geese have again made their appearance on the marshes, and the reports of many guns, in early mom and late

evening serves to remind us of the fascinations of the life of a hunter.

Fair Oaks is beginning to assume a more business-like appearance as spring approaches, as considerable improvements are to be made when spring has come to stay.

Union boasts that she has two of the largest watermelons ever seen in the county and challenges competition—the two weigh 330 pounds. Daniel Watermelon and wife.

Politics, township and county, are themes of discussion at present at almost any gathering ol the people, but the township questions will not be settled until April sth. The contest for Trustee will not t e as interesting as the contest for Assessor. The candidates for Assor are Moses Cox and William Meyer , which makes a very interesting race, both being good you., g men. The Democrats think they may succeed in electing the entire ticket.

All the candidates announced for county ofliees on the Republican side of the house are earnestly at work, and aie leaving no stone .inturned to secure their point.— All insinuations of incompetency of the incumbent of the Recorder’s office who two years ago said ©ne term was all they wanted. To a disinterested person it looks as though there will be fun in the Rep .blican camp over the nominations for k uditor and Treasurer. The race between Lamborn and Washburn for the nomination will be like that of the “dog and the wolf,” with the “dog a little ahead.” Coen, for Auditor, has many friends who do not feel friendly to the man whose friends are claiming that he was brought out by a Democrat so as to secure a deputyship for four years for said Democrat. They think that the charge that Coen is is in sympathy with the Democrats, because he worked for a Democrat, is unfair. As his opponent employed a Democrat to assist him, and may do so again, one should offset the other. Coen’s friends claim that for capability, honesty and sobriety he cannot be excelled by any one.

If the new RR. is built from Fair Oaks to Wanatah it will give us a station near the Harrington school house. Both lines which have been surveyed run across 80 acres of land owned by jLeroy Sayers—one line crossing at the north end and the other at the south end of the eighty. The question of a new church is still a subject of conversation, the problem assuming as yet no tangible shape, but young and old are working hard to raise the funds, and feel confident of success.

_ There are several who have business in djoining counties while the grand jury is in session. Wonder why “Your Brother” of the Republican don’t auswer the “Young Democrat” of the Sentinel? Come, answer the article, and get down to facts. You may expect to hear from me again in the future.

Peterson’s Magazine for April opens with a very beautiful steelengraving, viz: “The Little Pilferer,” after a picture by the celebrated German artist, Meyer Von Bremen. Then come s a doublesize colored fashion-plate, which all the adies wi !1 rave over; two colored patterns; and some fifty wood-cuts of fashion, embroideries, etc. The stories, all original, are even better than usual. ‘On The Roxbury Sands” is one of great power. “Sister Dorothy,” by Edgar Fawcett, is a society novelet of very high merit. “The Burgla”-Alarm,” by Frank Lee Benedict, is intensely funny. “The Mill.onaire’s Daughter,” by Mrs. ■Ann S. Stephens, grows in interest and force w : th every number. Altogether, we do not see how any lady can do without “Peterson.”— The terms are but Two Dollars a year; and now is a good time to subscribe. Address Charles J. Peterson, 306 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, Pa.

The Dickens Entertainment will be given by the pupils of the High School, and the teachers. The money made at this Entertainment will be
