Don't forget to celebrate to-morrow. Min Mary Babcock is visiting friends in Pontine, 111. The front of BemphiU’s restaurant building has a fresh coat of punt. The question now is, are you going to Michigan (Sty Monday ? Auditor Frank W. Babcock and lady are spending this week in Chicago. Mrs. S. A. Hemphill has our thanks for a fine supply of “garden ssss.” Miss Ora Thompson has our heartfelt Thanks for a magnificent boquet. Quite a number of our citizens have left the city during the “heated term.”

Bowins ft Conover are now the editors and proprietors of the Michigan City News. The Remington cornet band will furnish the music for the celebration to-morrow. Dr. Loughridge has had his office front repainted. It is now a puppy-dun” ooloi. Messrs W. H. & C. Rhoades have erected a new awning in front of their harness shop. Rer. Foxworthy, of Monticello, will be the orator of the day, a* the grand celebration to-morrow. Quite a number of our ' attended the Masonic celebration at Remingion, on Thursday of last week. Clerk Spitler and fcmily took their departure for a few weeks visit in the State of Maiue, on Wednesday. Poor “Spitz I’’ He was on another drunk this week. II is Remington dew- drops failed to make their appearance. The front of Wood’s hardware store and the Union office front have been refreshed with a new coat of paint. Bev. C. E. Lambert returned last Saturday, and occupied the pulpit in the M. E. Church, Sunday evening, as usual. A ball will be held in the grove tomorrow afternoon and evening. Good music has been secured and a happy time is expected.

Mrs. Alfred Thompson, with her son and two daughtets, started for Old Orchard Beech, Maine, on Wednesday, for a six weeks visit. Mr. O. W. Church, of the firm of Church & Lyon, Remiugton, permitted the light of his countenance to illuminate our den on Wednesday morning. Dr. G. A. Moss is ag nt for one of the greatest curiosities in existence. A new article. Call at his office, next door to bank buildiug, and see it. The widely known temperance lecturi r, Mr. Talbott, delivered an enthusiastic stirring lecture in the Christian Church, at Remington, last Monday evening. At the jewelry store of E. L. Price, in the cheap corner building, will be found a good supply of plain and fancy gold and silver finger rings. Call and examine. The matrimonial market is a little dull at present, as there has n<t been a marriage license issued for over three weeks. Wake up, boys, and do something, for your country.

Remember that Mr. P. H. Lolly, of Renjington, keeps the Champion Reapers and Mowers. Call on him and learn his prices, and examine his machines before ing-To-morrow will be a grand gala day for Rensselaer. Everybody from far and near will be in town to participate in the celebration of the glorious Fourth. Well, let ’em come. The Commissioners’ Court proceedings will be found elsewhere in this paper. By the permission of Mr. James, we use the ready set type of the Union , for which he has our thanks# St. Jobu’s Day was appropriately celebrated by the Masonic fraternity, at Remington, ob the 24th of June. Delegations from' several different lodges attended, and a royal good time was had. Complaints are made that corn is looking poorly yet throughout this section, hut there is plenty of time for 4 to revive. Small grains are exceedingly promising in appearance, and so is grass. ' Rev. D. J. Huston will preach at the Baptist Church in Rensselaer, Sunday, Jnly 4, on the subject: “The Centennial Work.” By request of the Centennial Committee— W. T. Stott and R. T. Palmer. We had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Maxwell, of the Benton Count j Herald, while in Remington a few days since. Editorial life seems to agree with the Dr. noth withstanding the trials an editor is compelled to undergo.

Mr. Harvey W. Wood, the popular Recorder of Jasper county, and his estimable lady, started to Ohio last week on a visit, and will be gone about two weeks. Mr. E. L.= Clark, former Recorder, is acting in Mr. W’s place during his absence. Remington is still improving. S. M. Black is putting up a large addition to his agricultural establisment, Burger & Butler, we believe, are erecting a new brick building, and several other buidinga which have before been mentioned in these columns are in process of erection. The preparations, for the grand celebration at Rensselaer on the 3d, are about completed, and the promise that a splendid time will be had seems to come folly within the possibilities. Come to Rensselaer to celebrate the glorious day, and see the eagle spread herself.

Owing to a press of other this week, the proceedings of the Gillam Township Sunday School Union, were crowded out. It is good, however, and will keep until next week. The Town Trustees, of Rensselaer, give notice through the columns of the Onion, warning the public that the bridge across the river at this place is unsafe for the passage of teams. That all persons driving upon or crossing over it with teams do so at their own risk and peril. Everybody is going on the excursion to Miebigan City, to take a boat ride on the lake, and interview the inmates of the prison. M. F. Chilcote is selling round trip tickets from Francesvilleand return for $1.60This is probably the best opportunity you wiH ever have for visiting the city of sand.

The Masonic celebration held in Chappell’s grove, Remington, on Thursday of last week, was a success. Rev. Foxworthy, of Monticello, delivered a very able and eloquent oration on the subject of Masonry. The attendance was not very large, although every one seemed to enjoy themselves. The Remington band assisted by Viessrs. Pearson and Lott furnished the music for the occasion. The workmen on the railroad between here and the Kankakee river have all ceased work, on account of the contractor not being able to funds. The subcontractors propose to go on with the work providing the company will furnish money enough to pay the necessary expenses, t. e. the expense of provisions, repairing tools, &c., and insure them the balance of their pay within a reasonable length of time. Jas. R. Guild, teacher of Center school, district No. 3, Gillam township, Jasper county, makes the following report for summer term commencing April 5, 1875, and ending Jnne 18, 1875: Number of days in school term, 55 ; No. pupils enrolled, 30 ; average daily attendance, 23. Those perfect in attendance, 23. Those perfect in attendance, punctuality and deportment, were Louisa W, Hunt, Judson Hunt and Lizzie Farris.

Fine corn growing weather at present. Miss Ruby Babcock's school, at Never Fail, closed Friday. The young folks will have a rousing big dance in Galey’s grove on the 3d. The boys around Mount Frospect go to that dirty hole known as the lake, almost every night. Oh what fun it must be—paddling around in the water to the musk of the gay acd fest ive mosquito. The Sunday school picnic has been postponed from the 3d to some other time in the season.
