White Water Tie vote between F rank llallowell and Walter Mitchell. Coopers wanted at Harrison see advertisement, Special Trains. The enterprising managers of the White Water Valley Ha lroad are running special trains from Ilagerstown lo Cincinnati whenever the regular morning downward train is behind time. This is done to accommodate the traveling public, so lhat our peopVe can go to the city in the morning without much delay in case the regular train does not make its appearance here within reasonable lime. A Tie Vote. It appears that the election uf Trustee of White Water Township resulted in a tie vote hteen Walter Mitchell and Frank Hallowed. We suppose these two gentlemen will have to draw lots to decide the matter. "Barren's" Reliable Hair Restorative. Water Tank. The Railroad Company have erected a water tank just below Maj. Walx's distillery. Didn't Sell. The White Water Taper Mill was not sold on Saturday last, on account of lack of bidders, and the sale whs postponed lo Friday, May Tih proximo, when it will again be offered. See advertisement in another column. Public Sale of Town Lots. Major Frank Wall bought Town Lots 8, 9, 18 and 19, in McCarty A Butler's plat of Brookville, which lots were publicly sold on Saturday last as the property of Francis M. Stone, ha paring $820 llierefor. Mr. Stone's other town lots were wot offered, but are to be sold on the ith cf May next. "Berreit's" produces natural change. Milk Wagon. Mr. J. P. Shilts wiil commeuce running a Milk Wason in Brookville on the first of May next. Si-e his advertisement on adjoining page. He informs us that he expects to run his eon the year round, Winter and Summer, and will charge five cents per quart during the Summer and six cents during the inter. A Sensible Suggestion. It has been suggested that a Joint Stock Company be formed here for the purchase of S:one"s Taper Mill. Several persons have expressed their willingness to subscribe a thousand dollars apiece, or probably one or two thousand more, if that is not enough. It would be a shame to allow this Paper Mill lo be lost lo Brookville, as it is worth many thousand dollars annually to this place. The investment would no doubt pay well, and prompt effjrts should bo made to form a company lhat ill take hold of it with a vim. What say our enterprising men of capital? No poisonous drugs in "Barrett's." Can't Serve. It is unfortunate that the newly elected Trustee of Posey Township, Wm. D. Adams Esq , cannot possibly serve in that capacity, he having his hands full of other business. He was chosen by a handsome majority, and would make an excellent officer if he eould arrange his business so as. to accept the position thus Undersd him. New Buildings, notice several new buildings in Brook -"ils that are verging towards completion this Spring. Improvement is the order of the day. Catholic Church Steeple. Ths hand some new pteeple on the Catholic Church of this place is about completed. Apply "Barrett's" and look youPg. Re-Elected. Chas. C. Binkley Esq. was re-elected Secretary of the Board of Directors of the Cincin- , Richmond & Fort Wayne Railroad Comroy, at their recent meeting in Richmond. Geo. Holland Esq. a as chosen one of the Directors and also Attorney of said Company. Grand Prelate. Thos. II.

Letting of Bridge Repairs. The Board or Commissioners met en Tuesday of this week for the purpose ef letting the repairs that are needed to render the bridge across tie East Fork below this point safe and permanent They adjourned until next Wednesday, however, without making a letting of the work. The three proposals pat in for the work, ranged from t0,-

000 to $15,600. Mr. H. H. Sehriehte was the lowest bidder, Messrs. Lttnpns A Miller next, and Messrs. John L.. case a Co. hi sheet. It is re-' m red and believed that the Board eoaremplate awarding the contract to Case A Co. We are sur j prised at this. We thought that the tax payers I nf the County bad a right to expect evm.thing better or Commissioners Robeson and Hubbard. But we say to these gentlemen new, "should you contemplate anything of the kind, yon never can aereeed" nill lorli k .,k k. fmA succeed out or the "public crib" bv "cartv hacks." It is necessary and proper that the bridge in ones tion tnouid oe repaired; but you cannot have the chanee te threw away the people's money in that kind of style, when a workman and responsible manlike Mr. Sehriehte offers to do the work for a reasotable price. Lookout, gentlemen: the law allows the people to "play Commissioner" when you undertake to defrand them or refuse to do your duty. Dress Up. Goods are going off like hot cakes at the City Clothing Emporia.. For Sale. Iewa land ia Harrison Cjuoty, near Magnolia. Enquire at American Office. Changed His Location. Mr. N. S. Turrell, formerly of White Water Township in this County, and recently of Graham, Missouri, has removed to Lawrence, Kansas, having bought a farm near the latter place, which is now his post-office, and where persons writing to him should hereafter direct their letters. Burglary at Eyerton. About 3 o'clock on the morning of the 9ih in st. the sleeping room of Daniel and Thomas Brooks, of Everlon, Fayette County, was burglariously entered, and about two dollars and a half taken from the pant; of Daniel Brooks and about thirty-eight dollars and a half taken from the pants of Thomas Brooks. The pants were afterward thrown into the lot of Jonathan Miller, minus the greenbacks. No clue as yet to the perpetrator of the deed. Any one who would steal from Deacon Brooks would rob a graveyard of its tenants. Convalescent. Wm. II. Jones Esq., who has been confined to bis room for some weeks past by a severe attack of sickness, is again on our streets, and will no doubt soon be ready to resume his law business. Right glad to greet him in good health again. Valley House. "Mine host" Vatillorn continues at his post as landlord of the Valley House, and is as attentive as ever to the wants and wishes of his j many guests. A most clever gentleman, be deserves success as a No. I hotet keeper. Resignation Accepted. The resignation of It. D. Brown as U. S. j Ganger for the 4;h Indiana District has been accepted, to take effect when his successor is appointed and qualified. Meeting of Railroad Appraisers. The Appraisers of the Indianapolis, Cincinnati Si Lafayette Railroad, of Dearborn, Ripley, Decatur, Shelby, Marion, Bonne, Clinton, Tippecanoe, Frauklin, Fayette, Wayne, Johnson and Morgan Counties, met on Tuesday at the office of the Auditor of State. The Wheal. Winter is over, and the farmers inform ns that the wheat has been injured but little, if any, thus far, and lhat the prospect is good for a heavy crop. Look to the Fruit Trees. Scrape down your fruit trees and clear out all ihe places where insects can find a home. Ijook to the roots of your peach trees and see lhat the worm is dfsposed of. Local Papers. An exchange aptly and truthfully says of local papers: they enhance the value of property; they call the attention to locality; they benefit particularly merchants and real estate owners thrice the amount yearly they pay for their support. There is nothing thai would do a town more harm than to be without a newspa" per. You need not think that ihe publisher of a paper can run it for your benefit and pay the expenses out of his own pocket. Give yonr home paper a good advertising patronage and a respectable list, and you will then have such a paper as you wish. What Railroads do for Farmers. To haul forty bushels of corn fifty miles on a wagon costs, says the Agriculturist, at least $12 for team, driver and expenses. A railroad would transport it for $4 at most. Allowing an average of forty bushels per acre, the crop would be worth $3 more per acre, or eight per cent on $100. As the relative advantage is about the same for other crops, it is clear that a railroad parsing through a town would add $100 per acre to the farms. A town ten miles square contains sixty-four thousand acres. An increase of $100 per acre is equal to $5,400,000, or enough to build two hundred miles of railroad, even if it ccsts $12,00 per mile- But two hun dred miles of railroad would extend through twenty towns of twenty miles square, and cost but $10 per acre, if taxed noon the land. These figures are given merely as an illustration. If the farmers had taxed themselves to I .! . a . outia an rauroaos in ibis country, and give ihem away to companies that would stock and ru them, the present increased value of their land woa.'d hare well repaid all the outlay. . . r 3 The following advertisement was found , . r ...J .t,.. tacit ed on a tree in Cass county, and shows , , . . . , . v the want of a missionary in that region. wonder Cass county gives four hundred i-em-ocratic majority. Head the production: "'Straid or Stole On the 2fth of June, 1870 One red caff & he was a shee caff, with a white spot on his beehind leg, and all the year uarks what you could sea was his tale kut off h I'll give $50 cts lo everybody what brings him home. Sined."' A Word to Farmers. The first thing for a firmer to find ent is, what crops grow best on his soil. Then let him net be discouraged by low prioes for a year or two. If he has a grass farm, let him make batter right along, even if some weeks It does not bring him but twenty-five cents.. Let him persevere and continue to send a fine artiele to town, and. before the year is out he will get forty cents. So with potatoes, or hogs, or cheese. Farmers differ mere in skill as marketers, than la industry as producers.

Union Connty Items. A correspondent of the Liberty Herald,

writing from Quakertown, mentions the death ofZaechens Stanton, the oldest man of lhat county. ITe was in the 90th year of his age. The stfnre Writer has the following: The o'dest grave yard in Union county is abont half a rale below here on the East bluff of the river, on the farm owned by Bennett Osborn. The first white person ever buried in Ih Taller or counr of ihe Eat Fork of Whitewater, was at this grave yard. Her name was Annie Cunningham, a young lady about 1 1 years of aae. She was buried in the fall of the year 1807. The yelow leaf of the wild unbroken forest mournfully fell upon her solitary grave, Ihe first of the "pale faces," as the Inrliane termed theearly eet'lers. The first frame house ever built in Union county it still in existence, and is now owned and occupied by John W. Maze, about one mile south-west of here. It was built by our highly esteemed and venerable old pioneer, Adam Pigman, Esq , who has not lost the "old Kentucky grit," with his age, but says he can make a better frame house yet than half the carpet. ters now days, and to'd the mail boy the other dav in Stanton's store, that he would walk to Richmond and carry the mail on his back and ht the lime of any of the crow baits lhat Seat Watt has on the route. The Reason. We heard a business man growling ferociously, the other day, because trade was so dull with him. The reason is obvious to us he don't advertise in the Amkkicak. This is a sure panac.a for the distressing effects cf bard times and dull trade. Description of the Ramie Plant. It is of the thistle family, is propagated easily by cuttings, requires comparatively little cave, is perennial, yields three or four crops a year at the ' rate of 3,000 pounds an acre, and is worth t55 sterling per tun. The threads are longer and more silky than cotton, and mixed with cotton or woollen produces a beautiful fsbric, and, alone, resembles the silks of Lvons. Solid Facts. It is those merchants who don't advertise who complain most of "dull times" the reason being that the people don't know whether they are in business or not, or whether their goods are new or old. As a matter of course, everybody reads the papers, and those who expect to do business without advertising, expect te do that which they will never realise. Epitaph. A gentleman of this city, while on a visit to Knightstown, stepped into a marble shop, where he saw the following inscription on a tombstone, ordered by an old farmer in Rush county, and which was to be placed at the grave of his son. The old gentleman said, "the 'thing was writ bv the family, and we want it cut on there just that way." Here it is: lie died at nashville tennessee he died of kronie diaree it trooly paneful must of bin to di to fur away from homel Legal Weights. The following are the legal weights in this State of certain products: lbs. Corn in the ear per bushel 68 Corn, shelled 5ft Wheat fiO Oats 33 Rye 38 Barley 4S Buckwheat 50 Clover seed , 60 Timothy seed r.. 45 Flax seed 56 Hemp seed Blue grass seed.... Beans Castor beans Potatoes Onions Dried apples Dried peaches Corn nieal Salt Coal 44 14 ...60 46 60 5? 25 32 50 50 70 In past times, editors have done a large p,t .c the party drudgery and have received but few honors. The first move of a candidate has heretofore been to obtain the 'good will of newspaper men, and after getting into office, snubbing tliem and appointing some one who was scarcely heard of daring the political contes's. The consequence has been to keep the press subservient and dependent. But with the incoming of the new Admin istration, we notice among many other commenda ble actions, that the ct aims of this class of men is being recognised. This class is represented largely at Washington, among whom are Colfax, Qorham, Blaine, Forney, McPherson, Brownlow, Anthony, and others. In New York, Ureely, Dana, and others, have the inside traek fur position, and in Cincinnati and other cities, the political fortunes of editors are decidedly roses tinted. The press of our State is being rewarded as it should. At Indianapolis, Col. Holljway of the Journal, is pros pectiva Postmaster; C. F. llogate', of the Hendrick County Union, will probably be Collector of bis District. And all over the State editors are receiving the local appointments, as postmasters, revenue assessors, collectors. Jtc. Greenfield Commercial. Dancing. Rev. T. K. Beecher is the author of the following wish: We wish that some Christian families would club together this winter, regardless of church lines and denominational fences, and carry through a series of seleet assemblies, at which the cost shall be small, the hours seasonable, the refreshments plain, the company select, the dances decent, the floor roasters deacons, the musicians choir members, managers clergymen, and the net results health, happiness, society, cnity, intelligence, charity, piety and peace. To stop an itching head, use Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Kenewer, a sure cure. Barbktt's Vkoktabi.b Hair Rkstosativk. The amount of attention bestowed upon the human hair is something marvelous to contemplate. Poets have made it the burden of many a sweet refrain, and blooming maidens of many anxious thoughts and sleepless nights. At last, however, the question ofhow to obtain, and, once obtained, how to retain a beautiful head of luxuriant and glossy hair, has been set at rest, by the introduction of "Barrett's Vegetable Hair Restorative" into general use. This admirable preparation needs only to be tried to be never denied a place in the toilet. Cincinnati Daily Qaxette. Cbristt's Hair Lotio This Lotiois the best article manufactured for the hair. If yonr hair is disagreeably red, try one bottle of Lotio. You will never regret the money it cost yon. It is cheaper than oils, and decidedly better. The Lotio cures dandruff, restores gray hair to its original color, and grows more hair on bald heads than anything advertised. For sale by all draggists. EXECUTOR'S SALE.

HALL'S Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer JErrrj pear increase the jxtjyvlaritt of this valuable Hair Jrrpmritiont which i due to merit alone. We ran aanre our eld natrons tliat it ia kept fully up tm its high standard, ami to those who have never used it we can confidently say, that it is the only reliable and perfected preparation to restore GRAY OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color, making it soft, lustrous, and silken; the scalp, by its use, becomes white and clean ; it remove all eruptions and dandruff, and by its tonic properties prevents the hair from falling out, as it stimulates and nourishes the hair glands. Bu its use the hair grows thicker and stronger. In baldness it restores the capillary glands to their normal vigor, and will create a new growth except in extreme old age. It is the most economical HAIR DHCSSIKG ever used, as it requires fewer applications, and gives the hair that splendid glossy appearance so much admired by all. A. A. Hayes, JStl.Lt., State Assayer of Mass., says, the constituents are pure and carefully selected for excellent quality, and I consider it the BEST PREPARATION for its intended purposes." We publish a treatise on the hair, which we send free by mail upon application, which contains commendatory notices from clergymen, physicians, the press, ami others. We have matte the study of the hair and its diseases a specialty for years, and know that we make the most effective preparation for the restoration and tlie preservation of the hair, extant, and so acknowledged by the best "Iedl. cal and Chemical Authority.
