It is announced that the Northern Indiana Editorial Association will convene in Plymouth «■ the 15th day of July. P. T. Barnum's Roman Hippodrome and Traveling World’s Pair will exhibit at Logansport on the Btb instant. If there is a cleaner and prettier town than GoodJaaJ, we have not seen it.—Ooodl land Courier . We invitSßro. Weet to visit Rensselaer. Syracuie, N. Y., is now enjoying the sensation of a local ministerial scandal, Bev. Mr. Coates, of the Chnrcii of God, and a gentle lamb of the flock, being the sinners-. The people there will probably not have the benefit of a trial a la Brooklyn, as Coates lias shaken the dost of Syracuse from bis feet, and fled to parts unknown. Don’t advertise, for it gets your name abroad, and you are apt to bo flooded with circulars from business houses, and to be bored with “drummers” from the wholesale establishments, all of which also results in •eliciting your order for new goods, and money to pay for them which is very annoying to one of a dyspeptic temperamen t.

On last Friday we paid the thriving little town ofGoodland a short visit. The spirit of improvement seems to have struck everyone about the tame time. New and substantial buildings are going up on every hand. We called at the Courier office and found Messrs West and Maxwell with their coats of, and hard at work doing their best licks to give Goodlaad a live local newspaper; and everyone who have perused a copy of the Courier will readily admit that they succeed admirably. To-morrow, the 99th annivei sary of American Independence will be celebrated in this place with appropriate ceremonies. The gentlemen composing the executive committee have labored for the past ten days with untiring zeal, and have done all in their power to carry out the programme, and make the celebration a success in every particular. Then let every patriotic citizen of the county turn out and devote one day to our country in honor of that liberty which our forefathers purchased with their own life-blood. Let us renew within ourselves the spirit of ’76. Let us once more unfurl the stars and stripos and let them float from every door and window in the town. Let us make this great National Holiday one long to be remembered in the hearts of the country-loving people of. Jasper county.

“Prudence and economy of course are the two great lessons to be learned ; but there is one part of these which, in dull times, is very liable to be forgotten. Be sure of one thing; whatever you have to sell there are anany people ready to buy, even in the most depressed seasons. Find them out; show them your wares; persuade them to buy of you rather than another. When buyers are reluctant, sellers must be active. It is neither cheap nor sensible to sit still behind your counter and wait for the bustle of trade to Tcvive. When business is dull, that is the * ime when you most need to advertise; and in the second place, that is when people devote most time to reading the newspapers, and when your advertisement consequently is generally most seen. A few dollars thus invested will do more to revive a sluggish husines than anything else in the world.”

Remember the excursion to Michigan City July 6th. Remember, also, that the lowest Tates are offered to all who will accept. The lowest ever offered—a ride of 170 miles for less than one cent and a half a mile. If you decide to go, purchase your tickets at once, so as to give the committe time to secure cars enough that all may be comfortably seated. The committee having the excursion in charge a-e determined to do everything in their power to add to the pleasure and eomfortofthe party. It is a committee of the citizens of Remington who have the excursion in charge, and the object is to have a good social time. It-may be that this will be the last opportunity you will have to visit the beautiful Lake Michigan at so little cost. Round trip tickets from Remington $2,50; train leaves Remington at 4A. M. Round trip tickets from Francesville $1.60; train leaves Reynolds at 7A. M. Ten hours will be allowed for traversing Michigan City, taking a boatride on the lake and miscellaneous enjoyment*.

Springers Royal Cirqzoolodon at Remington.

This entirely new organization for the recreate* instruction % of the people, seems destined to eclipse all predeceesors in the way of rastness, extent, and variety. When Barnum launched his last great amusement enterprise on the tidal wave of success, everyone thought that perfection in exhibitions had been attained; hut thepublic acknowledge that the great showman baa beenjflanked at “every hand by this Modern Napoleon of entertainments. The enterprise of its managemeut seems to be beyoud all precedent; and the wonder is that with the great expenditure which must be necessary to carry out so vast a conception, how it can be made to pay even with its enormous canvases filled to repletion. That, . however, is the business of the management, not ours. There seems to be nothing in the way of canvasexhihitions that it does not embrace, and everything connected with it is on a scale of magnitude hitherto undreamed of. The Menagerie is as large as any two in the country, and contains more exclusive specialties than all of them put together.— The circus is exhaustive in its assemblage of noted talent; and the Museum is exceptionally comprehensiveand varied. It exhibits at Remington, Thursday, July 8, Go and see it.

Preachers, Lawyers and Doctors.

Ei>. Republicas.-—I have a few things to say to the good people who nod your excellent paper. I have been associating with j human beings for almost fifty years, l] have been watching and reading of professional men for the last twenty-five yours, and it would be an evidence of my stupidity, if, by this time, I had not learned something about them. Of course it will n t be expected that I give a history of all the professions of men, but to confine my remarks to three only, inch's article,viz.: the preacher, the physician and the lawyer. I regard these professions as the most responsible that man has ever hod to do with. The preacher is having to do with the weal or woe of your eternal destiny. The physician is handling your life and health hero, and without health this world is a miserable dr ig. The lawyer, to a great extent, is having to do with ycur money. It is true a greaf niftf-W-e add “he who steals my money you will find it to be a trash of great convenience. Now with these headings before us, who is so dumb that he does not see that the men of thos e professions will never get through with their studies. The bible is a book that is ine xhaustable. The more you study it the more you will find in it to study about, so there is no time for the preacher to fool away, and the man who fills so responsible a position and is found at the croquet party or any other haunt of amusement, is to be regarded as unsafe a$ a religious guide. The idea of a religious guide presiding over# festival, a mush an milk party, a croquet yard, either as a participant or an idle spectator, is absurd, ridiculous and wicked in my eyes. If you come to town after a preacher and find him in any of those foolish haunts, you had better go home without him, for he does not understand the book he is trying to teach, neither has he the love of souls at his heart He is a lover of pleasure more than of God. If you come to town after a physician, and find him at the billiard table or in the saloon, his cheeks all aglow of whisky, fooling away his time, sense and money, you had better go homo without him, and let your wife or child (as the case may be) die a natural death, rather than have them murdered, or poisoned for life, by a drunken doctor.— Man is so wonderfully and fearfully made, that the study of man physically Is inexbaustable. If it is true, as one of the greatest physicians once said, “that man’s physical frame is a harp of a thousand strings, ’’ what erudition and labor it must require to learn to play all the tunes that should be played by the man who practices physio.

Then when we look at the lawyer. He should be familiar first with the Bible, for is a well known fact, that one quotation from the Bible in a lawyer’s pleading has more weight upon a jury, than one hour’s reading from statutes made by man. Next, he should be perfectly familliar with all the law of his state, from Path Master to Governor. Also, with all the laws of his country, up to the highest officers in all the departments of offices. Next, let him be posted in the laws of all nations, then he may stand up without blushing and ask you to put your legal difficulties into his hands. What r thought. You come to the city for one of these professional men. You go to his office, you find it locked you make inquiry for him. You are cited to base ball ground, croquet yard, billiard hall or some other time-mur-dering place. There you find him, his mind on everything but his prefession, his musty books lying in his office unread. What condition is he iu to take charge of your souls welfare, of your life, or of your financial interest? Judge ye. He wants your money, and he will get it if you are fool enough to call upon him. I now close this article with a maxim of my own. He who honors his profession, keeps self in the background and the good of humanity before him. More anon. Straight Out.

FOURTH OF JULY EXCURSION.

The Pittsburg, Cincinnati & sit. Louis Railway will sell Excursion Tickets, at'greatly reduced rates to and from all points on the 3d, 4th and sth days of July, making tickets good to return until July, 6th 1875. This announcement of a great Railroal opening its entire Line of several hundred miles to Excursionists at low rates, affording an opportunity for visiting distant friends on the National Holiday, will be gladly received by a large class, who, from considerations of economy, both of time and means, would otherwise be unable to indulge in a pleasure excursion, now so popular with all classes during the summer

TIE DIE LIKE DEDE STEEL THE GREAT AMERICAN EXPLORER, MAJOR MUGKLESWORTH, has been heard fropj?- "The last account we had of him was up to the 17th day of March, 1875, in latitude 41 $ degrees west longitude from Washington where he had encountered Deaeon Tubbs and his Party, and after three days of hard bombardment had captured him and his whole party, and now have them confined in the Yew Brick Building on the South Washington Street, IYo. 1004. one door east of F. J. Sears & Co’s dry goods store. The Deacon and his party made a gallant resistance at the old stood on the north side of the street, but the Major was a little too strong for him and captured him and his subordinates, Lieut. Meyer and Will Perigrim. Young Perigrim was wounded by an accidental discharge of Meyer’s piece, but young Perigrim, at- last accounts, was doing well; he was using IiADWAY’S READY RESOLVENT for his Blood, one bottle of WALLACE’S BITTEKS for hi* Digestive Organs, and three boxes of M’ALESTER’S ALL HEALING SALVE for his wound. It is thought by his nurse that he will recover. Tho Major, in the long exposure with Deacon Tubbs, cheering on his men, took a severe cold which settled in his throat, but by using a bottle of Dr. Harding’s Celebrated Cougli Mlxffire, b we are happy to inform the public that he is able to be out again, and at the BTORE compounding Drugs and Medicines, where the Deacon and the Major are found at all times dealing out Medicines to their They would say to their friends that thev have, or did have, a Large Stock of DRUGS, MEDICINES, PAINTS, OILS and DYESTUFFS.

WEEDS III! . We are the sole agents for Jasper and Newton counties, for the introduction of a new and improved Weed. After years of trial it has proved to be hardy. It partakes of the double nature of the Iron and the Smart weed; is not a field pest, but a family favorite. We refer to the world renowned and justly celebrated WEED (F. F.) SEWING MACHINES. They received the first prize at the Paris Exposition or World’s Fair of 1867; the Gold .Medal and first prhe at the State Fairs of Maine, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Vermont and Minnesota ; of the Mechanic’s, and Union Fairs of Maryland, New York, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, West Virginia, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island ; at the great NewEnglaud Fair of 1868, and at fifty-five other Fairs and Institutes, when it was in competition with all the ms* chines of its own class—Singer, Howe, Grover & Baker, Wheeler & Wilson, Domestic and Florence: besides, with others of some notoriety, as the Wilson, American, Wilcox & Gibbs, Seeor, Davis, Remington and Victor (old Finkle & Lyon). It excels in light running, durability, simplicity of structure, ease of adjustment and management, wide range of work and beauty of finish, in its tension, take up and shuttle. A child eight years old can operate them. An invalid can use it with decided benefit to health—so light running aud noiseless is its action. There are nearly 300,000 of them in nse—over fifty in this and Newton counties. We refer to Mrs. A. Thompson, Mr. Henry Bruce and over thirty other families who are using them. They are sold on easy terms—leases or good time. Do not buy any other until you try the Weed Family Favorite. Special inducements offered to Grangers and other purchasers for Cash.
