Circuit Court The current week has been an unusual! bos; one in Circuit Court. Various important civil suits have been decided thus far during the present term ; also various trials for violating liquor law, keeping gambling saloon, divorce, assault and battery, Ac. We are unable to procure a summary of the cases disposed of. Township Elections. Office-seekers are already announcing themselves as candidates for the various offices to be filled at the coming Township elections. Our Republican friends in tbe various Townships should be "getting a good ready" for theee elections, by casting about for proper persons to severally fill tbe positions of Trustees, Justices of the Peace, Supervisors, etc United States Internal Revenue. By the act of June 30, 1864, as amended by the first section of the act of March 2, 1867, it is made tbe duty of any person liable to annual tax, on or before the first day of March in each year, to make a return to the Assistant Assessor of the district wherein he resides, of his income, and of the articles in Schedule A, to wit: Carriages, Gold Watches, Billiard Tables, 4c, owned or kept by him on the Erst day of March. Every person failing to make such return by the day specified will tie liable to be assessed by the Assistant Assessor according to the best information whicb he cm obtain; and in such case tbe Assisiaut Assessor will add fifty per cent, to the amount of the tax, and from the valuation and enumeration so made there can be no appeal. The Annual Assessment has been commenced in this District, and returns of Income, Special Taxes, (Licenses,) Ac , should at once be made at the otlice of the Assessor. Blank forms will be furnished to all persons ou application. "Barrett's" Superior Hair Kestxrative.
State Industrial Board. A bill lias been introduced in tbe Senate
which will probably become a taw, changing the name of the State Board of Agriculture to that of Slate Industrial Hoard. This, if successful, will probably be followed by a correslonding change in the name of the County Noddies.
Removal. Messrs. Adams & Berry have removed their law otlice to the rooms in the second story of the Iii'tnocral Building. These rooms are traily furnished, pleasant and comfortable. SSirp in there and see ihetu in their new quarters.

Survey in g. Mr. E. G. Glidewell, tbe County Surveyor, requests us to state that he has given up his school and commenced surveying, which business he will attend to for any one who wishes it done. Orders should be immediately sent to him at Fairfield, giving section, town and range, Sensible Ladies. The young ladies of Dover, Wayne County, have formed a society for the redemption of young men from bad habits. Each of the members have solemnly pledged themselves not to receive the attentions of any young man who indulges in the use of liquor, tobacco, , profane or obscene language. Use "Barrett's," and grey hairs disappear. Epidemic. The Lawrenceberg Register learns that the small-pox is raging to a considerable extent in the northern part of Dearborn County. Butchering. Jacob Scbranck & Brothers have again commenced the Butchering busiusss, and will hereafter supply their customers with Fresh Meat on three mornings per week, at the lowest market prices for cash. Removed. Col. Job Stout and family have left Connersville for their new home in Eldora, Iowa. Col. Stout has been a resident of Fayette County more than thirty years. Mr. Samuel Enyart and family hare moved from Connersville to Thorntown. Mr. Enyart has for a long time occupied a prominent place in the business affairs of Connersville. Vigilance Committee. A Vigilance Committee has been organized at Florence, Switzerland County, for the purpose of suppressing a gang of eight desperadoes whose violations of law have become unbearable. The Rising Sun Recorder says: "The authorities are in sueh fear of them that they are afraid to enforce the law upon them." Sudden Deaths. The wife of Mr. James D. Uenry, living near Fayetteville, in Fayette County, was struck with the palsy on Saturday the 6th inst, and died the following Monday. She was a most estimable woman. On Monday morning of last week, Mr. Jno.
R. Irwin of Everton was found dead in bis
store room. He leaves a wife and two children. A Spiteful Sheriff on a Drunk He Destroys All the Legal Papers. The Oxford Citizen states that a resident of Oxford has received a letter from a friend in Liberty, Iud., from which we learn that the Sheriff of Union County, a couple of weeks ago, while under the influence of liquor, consigned to the stove al! of the legal papers in his possession belonging fi the County, and they were destro3"eJ. It seems that Mr. Bennett's securities refused to remain responsible
for In in any longer, on account of his drunk- j tnupss, aud in order to spite them he destroyed the documents. This leaves the business !
affairs of Union County in an unpleasant pre
dicament. We cannot find anything in reference to this matter in the Liberty Herald.
llow long will it be till the people learn the
iiipnrtance of electing ou!y sober meu to of
fice?
Two Cases of Poisoning at Miamitowa. A correspondent of the Gaxette at Miami-
town sends an account of the accidental poi
soning of Dr. R. R Strewhle aud the Hon. G.
M. Bunce. The writer states that both gentlemen drank from what they supposed to be a bottle of sarsaparilla. Instead it proved to be nitrate of silver. Medical aid which one would fancy the gentlemen would need was promptly rendered, "but both," we quote from the letter, ''lingered in intense agony for some time, but both are now in a fair way to re
cover."
Demorest's Magazine. The March number of that ever welcome
family visitant Demorest's Magazine has
just appeared iu cur sanctum, bright, beauti
ful and interesting, as an elegant display of j
the early Spring fashions and an entertaining I
collection of handsomely illustrated tales and
sketches can render it, and numberless cuts, descriptions and hints all relative to matters
important to the fair sex. This is undoubtedly one of the best, largest and most useful
journals of fashion now issued in this coun
try, whether relative tohe household or society, and every woman will find it an earnest, faithful friend. $3 yearly. Publication office, 838 Broadway, New York. Velocipedal Trip. A party of Indianapolis velocipeders have made arrangements to make a trip to Kichmond, Indiana, over the National Read. They propose to dine at Greenfield, stop at Knightstown over night, dine next day at Cambridge City, and reach Richmond at six P. M. the second day. They will show the people whether the bicycle can be made useful as well as a source of amuse
ment.
Talking Club. The State Sentinel says a "talking club" is to be established in Indianapolis. It will meet once a week, and some member will talk fifteen ruinates. apon a subject which has beea previously aseigaed to him. After he haa concluded, each member of the clab may occupy five minutes, either in questioning the speaker, who is supposed to be at home oi the subject; or ia communicating his own views. Perhaps a do sen persons may in this way find utterance in the course of the evening, and a great variety ef thought will be brought out. The talking elub is meant to combine the benefits ef the debating society and the leeture, without the defects of either system, and can be established In any village which contains half a dosen intelligent young men.
A Mammoth Blower. The heaviest piece of machinery every boilt in Connersville, is no w being constructed by Messrs. Roots at their foundry and machine shops. It is a Blower for a Pneumatic Railway in New York. The Blower, when completed, will weigh aot less than forty or fifty tons, will be twenty feet long by twenty feet high, and will have a capacity to deliver 100,000 cubie feet ef air per minute. The machine will be run by an engine of two hundred horse power, and is expected to drive heavy freight cars with a velocity of from thirty to sixty miles per hour. The Paeumatie Railway is a new invention. One was constructed in London as an experiment, not a great while since, and proved, we believe, at least a partial success. It is an underground railway through an air-tight tunnel, and the cars are ran by the pressure of the air upon them. The first section of the railway in New York will be constructed from the City Park to the Post Office, a distance of about a quarter of a mile, as an experiment. The Blower is expected to draw the cars towards it by suction, and to drive them from it by the force of its blast . If the experiment proves successful, the company in accordance with the provisions of their charter, will construct about eight miles of railroad under the city, thus connecting the various railroad freight depots, and allowing freight to be conveyed from one road to another without encumbering the streets with the large number of vehicles now engaged in carrying it. To the overcrowded streets ot New York this will be of great advantage, and of immense importance to the railroad companies. Messrs. Roots expect to finish the Blower within from thirty to sixty days. It and the Pneumatic Railway, if the latter proves a success, will be one of the "sights of the city" which every visitor of New York will be desirous to see. Messrs. Roots are also constructing a large Blower, with a capacity to furnish fifteen to twenty thousand cubic feet of air per minute, to be used in ventilating the Indiana Insane Asylum at Indianapolis. Their Blower will probably be in great demand as a ventilator for large buildings. Negotiations are now being made to furnish it to the Ohio State Prison, the Indiana State Prison at Jefferson ville, and the Capitol at Washington. Connersville Times.
cents on the hundred dollars is a levy as large as should he forced upon our taxridden people. This levy will be ample for every purpose. Here is one important item of possible .reduction, and one of which the relief will be immediately and clearly felt, and which can do no in
jury to the policy of the State or the in
terests or the people. We are not bound to pay off our bonds. Our creditors don't expect it or desire it, and we surely might do better with money worth ten per cent, than pay off bonds that draw only five. We believe reductions can also be made in other taxes, by cutting down expenses, and we may at another time discuss the matter. f Journal. New Trenton Lyceum. Editor American, The Lyceum which was organized here on the 2d inst. is proving a grand success. Society met at the school-house in this place on Saturday
evening the 13th inst. There were decla
mations and essays by the members which did credit to themselves and the Society. Professor Lake's String Rand attend regularly and furnish us with the very best of music. The gentlemen who belong to the band understand how to use the bow to ' perfection. Lovers of good music are invited to attend. Debating is one of the prominent features of the Society. Subject for debate at next meeting is, ''Resolved that female suffrage is right." A deep subject, but then we have an able corps of debaters who are equal to the emergency. -
We have a Budget connected with the
Society, and have a large number of con
tributors, but still room for more. All
who wish to contribute are at liberty to do so. Ail are invited to attend, and if they
wish to, are invited to take part in the ex
ercises. Society meets every Saturday
evening. J . V . Rabbit, Sec y. New Trenton, Ind., Feb. 14, 1SGS.

How to Kill a Town. If yon wish to kill a town, .ut np no more baildings tban you are obliged to occupy yourself. If yon should accidentally have an empty building, and any one should want to rent it, ask about three times its actual value, and thereby keep it empty about half a year. Look at every new-comer with a scowl. Turn a eold shoulder to every business man or merchant seeking a home among you. Go abroad for wares, rather tban purchase of your own merchants or manufacturers at the same price. Refuse to advertise, so that persons at a distance will not suppose any business is being done In your city. In short, do all in your power to drive trade from the town. A prompt and close observation of these rules will ruin any town in two years. Decatur Press.
Professional Jurors. We are glad te see that many papers are "going for" an interminable nuisance professional jurors. It is seldom that justice is obtained by a sound jury, let alone one composed of courtroom loafers and soatlawags who put on faces long enough to eat oats from a churn, look dignified as though they had forgotten more law tban Blaekstone ever knew. The Lebanon Patriot says of them: "With the opening of every court in this place, a set of professional jurors fall in line, and with wonderful tenacity hang about the court room the entire term. They always understand lav thoroughly, and no lawyer or judge can affect their opinions. We are inclined to think the whole jury system a humbug, and we know professional jurers are." ".Decatur Tress.
Reduction of Taxes. How can taxes be reduced? This is a question worthy of more attention than has yet been given it, and it seems to us that what attention it has received has been directed to flight or indifferent results, rather than the vital one of reducing the burthens of the people. A meeting was held, a few days since, ia this city, at which it was proposed to cut down the fees and salaries of certain officers and abolish others. This might be well enough if it were enough. But it is not. How much will all the proposed reductions lessen our
tax btate, county and cityf iNot more than three or four cents on the hundred dollars, all told. The average of the tax in the cities of this State, including State and county tax, is not less than two per cent. A small reduction of this heavy load, like other "small favors," may be thankfully accepted; but real gratitude is only due to large ones. It will be an inappreciable relief to reduce our tax from two dollars on the hundred to one dollar and ninety-six cents on the hundred. Is there not something more that can be as
easily done with greater results.' we can reduce taxation as well as fees, and lift
something off the shoulders of every taxpayer in the State. The people demand it the condition of the country requires it and it is practicable. It is more, it is easy, and it can work no evil to counterbalance its benefits, so far as we can see. For State taxes, we are now paying forty cents on the hundred dollars tweuty cents for the interest on the public debt, and other expenses of the State, and twenty cents to be applied to paying the principal of the State debt. From this levy of forty cents we understand that $2,000,000 are realized annually, of which one-half is applied to the current expenses of the State, and one-half, or about 1,000,000, to paying off our funded debt. This debt is chiefly in five per cent, bonds, which are held by parties in London and Amsterdam. These bonds are payable at the pleasure of the State. It would be no
violation of faith on our part if we should not pay them for a century, if the interest is promptly met. Further, it is well known that the holders of these bonds do not now desire their payment. They prefer their investment, as it is, to the money. Between this time and the third Monday in April, the people of this State will pay about $1,000,000 of the taxes of 18G8,
which will go to the discharge of these ob

tiair L.otio. 1 he JUotio grows more hair on Da HI heads than anything advertised. It will promote the growth of ladies' hair to any length desired. Read one of the many testimonials which we receive from ladies: 1'rof. Chbistt. Sib: I commenced the nse of your hair preparation at a time when ray hair was in a very unhealthy condition. My hair was dry and harsh, and whenever I dressed it, it broke efT, so that it became very short and thin. I bought one bottle of your Hair Lotio to try it, and I was so pleased with it that I continued using it. I have used the Lotio for nearly a year, and it has grown me a head of hair that is soft and glossy, and it is longer than it ever was before in my life. Mrs. E. H. PHILLlVS. The lady to whom the poet refers in the following lines must have used Lotio: Like her to whom at dead of night The bridegroom, with his locks of light, Came in the flush of love and pride And scaled the terrace of his bride; When, as she saw him rashly spring, Aud midway up in danger cling. She flung him down her soft brown hair, Exclaiiusng, breathless, "there love, there." J5ftFor sale by druggists everywhere, 1. All orders and letters should be sent to
