Quite a number of Rensselaer friends of the contracting parties attended the wedding. Richard Fielder and Mrs. Laura V.

The Newton County Enterprise 'says concerning the county seat | election that “with Kentland the contest is ended,” and “so far as Kentland is concerned the county seat will go to Goodland, and may it prove a lees curse to Goodland than it has to this town." C. C. Kent, who has been foremost in the fight to retain the county seat at Kentland, says: “I will contest no longer, with me the bkttle is lover. Goodland won. and I will not raise my finger to prevent the will of the people being carried out.” Therefore it is not likely that the matter will be further contested in the courte.

Mrs. W. H. Beam went to Indianapolis yesterday for a short visit. O.

True Woodworth and .Michael Overmeyer, two more peace-mak-ers in the levee fight of June 3d, were fined $1 each and costs, $8 and $9 respectively, by Esq. Troxell. The Squire is letting off the peacemakers as light as possible, he says, as he thinks they entered into the fracas, as they say, simply to restore peace. The dragnet is still out. The famous Burk’s bridge north of town has Hgain been causing much anxiety to the people having to pass over it. The high waters lately have caused the grade at the south end to sink or wash away, and Monday the grade was so low that water came into the buggies passing over it. This bridge and the approaches thereto have cost Jasper county many thousands of dollars and is a continuous bill of expense. It will probably always be thus until the river channel is deepened and proper means supplied for running the water off. If a good channel was put in the bed of the river there would be no more trouble of this nature. As it now is, the river has no channel at all tospeak of and when high water comes it spreads all over the lands adjacent thereto.

The continued heavy rains in this section have become a very serious matter, and in the northern part of this county little will be raised this year. Many farmers up there have been unable to get into their fields to plant, while others who did plant have had their corn ruined by water standing over it. From 200 to 250 acres of onions north of Wheatfield have been ruined, the water standing from 14 to 4 feet over the fields. This was a serious loss as it costs about $7 to $8 per acre prepare and plant onions, and the labor that it would have given in tending them is a great loss to Wheatfield. The condition is not so bad in the central and southern part of the county, although in some localities, on the lower ground, much damage has been done. Thursday night we got another big general rain, 14 inches of water falling at Rensselaer.
