Morgan, of Fairfield Township, is Agent for the sale of "The Sights and Secrets of the National Capital," written by Dr. John U. Ellis.

Repairing of all kinds promptly attended to. Send your orders if you waut a good job of work. Town Marshal. We are authorized to announce John W. Chambers as a candidate for re-election to the office of Town Marshal at the coming Spring election. Killing the Borers. Early in the spring, before planting time arrives, all the apple-trees should be examined for borers. A man provided with a strong half inch gouge and a piece of No. 14 wire, will eradicate this pest from an orchard in a very few days, and save the trees from total destruction. If verv large wounds are made in the search for the borers, they should be covered with some substance that will protect the wood from the air or moisture. Strong tarred paper, wrapped aronnd the base of the stem, will insure the trees against the attacks of the beetle, which is the parent of these borers. In many sections of the country, too great vigilance cannot be given in preventing the attacks of these pests of the orchard. ' The Second Adventists have received positive information to the effect that the world will come to an end on the 10th of July next. This gives the members of the Legislature, and other sinners, bat a short time in which to make the necessarj preparation for the event. It is kind in the Advents to fix it after, instead of before, our great national holiday. Journal.

Fairfield Items. Ed. American, Tt has been some time since I wrote anything for the Press, but I will give yon aorrv of my observations in and about Fairfield, which you may print if yea think them worthy. Fairfield is one of the pTeasantest little towns in Eastern Indiana, and is improving faster than its neighbors. Property is in good

demaud. There are not houses enough to accommodate as many as want to settle here.' Dr. Ferguson sold one of his houses to Mr. L. B. Doyle for $650. Mr.- Doyle is occupying part of it for his saddle and harness shop, and is selling work cheaper than any other t-hop perhaps in the County. Persons wishing anything in the Harness line should give him a call before purchasing elsewhere. Thos. C. Kay and Robt. E. Best sold their wagon shop and house to Thomas Osborn for $700, and have gone to Kansas to look for a situation for a future home. Mr. Osborn intends having the wagon business carried on as heretofore. Messrs. G. & S. Loper are building a large carriage shop on the East side of the Public Square. Rose & Loper have a fine lot of buggies and carriages on hand. I think they excel any I ever saw in Fairfield. Persons who intend purchasing anything in their line should visit their shop before buying elsewhere. T. W. Hayward is finishing his new dwelling house. It makes a fine appearance, and when he gets moved into it he will feel at home, I should think. Judging from the amount of goods the merchants have brought to town this Spring, they must expect good times coming. There are three excellent dry goods stores here, and two grocery stores all doing a large business. And there are three shoe-shops which seem to have plenty of work on band. One of the firms says he "be dast" if he can furnish slock enough to keep his shop running. In passing down the street I see a barber pole, and upon inquiry I find my old friend. Jim Dubois is shaving faces for a living, and they eay he is doing well. Long may he live. Observer. Railroad Appraisement. The real estate appraisers of the various counties through or into which the Indiauapolis, Cincinnati and Lafayette Railroad runs, met ut the office of the Auditor of State, Tuesday afternoon, 13th inst., pursuant to notice given, for the purpose of appraising the road bed, rolling stock ii nd depot grounds of the Company for taxation. The following appraisers or deputies were present: Dearborn County R. D. Slater, Jr., Deputy. Ripley County Samuel R. Grimes. Decatur County James King. helby County Richard "orris. -Marion County William C. l'hipps. Doone County Joseph A. Thomson. Clinton County Robert Carriuk. Tippecanoe County George Jones. Franklin County Aaron is. Line. Fayette County Jesse P. Elliott, Deputy . Wayne County J. W.Swafford. Johnson County William C. Rarnett, Deputy. Morgan County Jeremiah lladley. An organization was effected by the selection of Aaron R. Line, ef Franklin County, as President, and William C. Tbipps, of Marion county, as Secretary. A resolution was adopted for the appointment of a committee of five, consisting of Messrs. lladley, Swafford, Slater, Norris and Rarnett, to appraise the road bed and rolling stock, the depot ground ! improvements to be appraised by the otneers of the several counties, xue meeting then adjourned until five o'cl.ck, in order to give the Committee and the several Appraisers time to repott. The committee reported to the meeting, at five o'clock, in favor of fixing the entire appraisement at $7,500 per mile. The entire length of the main line aid branches in Indiana is 266 miles, and the total appraisement $1,9115,000. In Marion ceunty there are 26 4-10 miles, valued for taxation at $ly8,0C0. Bridge Repairs. The Commissioners have awarded to II. H. Scbriehte fc Rrother the contract for repairing the East Fork Rridge just belew Brookville putting in good foundations and building three substantial stone piers. Their bid. was the lowest responsible one nine thousahd and sizry dollars. Heavy Rise. The copious rains on Monday night swelled our rivers to flood hight. A great amount of drift, logs, Jtc, were carried off, and the low grounds more or less inundated ; but wo have not heard of any very serious damage in consequence. Important to Tobacco Dealers. Commissioner Delano has decided that any dealer who converts plug tobacco into smoking tobacv ' J . , . tuted a manufacturer under the law, and must pay taxes and give bonds as a tobacco manufacturer. Died. At Morris, Ripley County, on Saturday, 17th inst., of typhoid fever, Josephine, daughter of Jjseph and Magdalene Bierbusse, aged 12 years. She was a most interesting child, and was follow -ej to her grave by a large concourse of sympathizing friends. S. U. im ' Plant Trees. Every citizen who owns a dwelling should now plant out shade trees, if he has not already nice ones before his premises. Kotning which costs so little makes so much improvement to a dwelling as neot shade trees. Distillery Seized. The distillery firm of A. P.Williams A Co., of Lawrenceburg, has failed, and their establishment was seized for debt, by the U. S. Marshal, last Monday. Collector Stevenson also levied upon the concern to secure some S2-,UUU Government taxes. Aurora Advocate. New Trenton Literary Society. The above named Society meets every Saturday evening. The members have recently refitted the Hall, furnishing it with splendid lamps, arranged a beautiful stage for speakers and actors, and purchased a library for themselves. In short, no pains have been spared in so arranging that every person attending will be edified and instructed. ilore anon. April 10tb, 1S69. D. D. II.
