To Whom it May Concern. • All persons knowing themselves indebted to me on book account will please call and settle, with cash if possible, if not by cash, by note, before the 16th day of December, 1875. J. H. WOOD. The best thing out—an aching tooth. A few “symptoms of snow” fell last dayIt will soon be tape for the Christmas trees. Congress will convene one week from next Monday. The new style of hat for gentlemen’s wear is called the “ragged edge.” All honest men will bear watching. It is rascal s who cannot stand it. Fashion may be a foolish and even sinful goddess but she delights in attendance upon the sanctuary. Another meeting of the Jasper County Temperance Union at the Presbyterian Church, next Monday evening. We don’t approve of stealing, but we warn our friends that it is not sale to leave a lead penci' laying around loose about a printing office.

An old bachelor says that man has but three true friends on this earth, his mother, his pipe ftnd his dog. That fellow needs a mother-in-law. The writer of this and h>B better two-thirds are under obligations to “mine host” of the Austin Hotel for a good “sqare intal,’ ’ “taken in” last Sunday. A great revival of religion is going on in Logansport. Converts are numbered by hundreds, and the churohes are receiving accessions daily. Lafayette desires a “revival.” We are glad that her people are beginning to see themselves as others sec them There is hope for Lafayette yet. Barnum is going ’round telling people about “The World, and How lo Live in it.” The way not to live in it is to go up in one of his balloons. Do you want to sell a farm, or town property, or stock of any kind, advertise in the Republican, and you will in all probability find purchasers. Now that the season for accidents by mowing and threshing machines is past, the farmers have to content themselves with an occasional runaway.

Are your chimneys in a safe condition, and all the stove-pipe connections in good order? If not then look out for a visitation of God in the way of a fire. An lowa paper says apples add cider are plenty out there. We see an occasional apple, but as to cider, the oldest inhabitant can’t remember even its flavor. Marriage licenses were issued by Clerk Spitler, since last Friday, as follows W. Laing and Lucrctia Pierson; James Horrie, Jr., and Minnie Rolley. Two young hearts that beat as one can sit in one chair of nights now with a good deal more comfort than when the thermometer simmered around the ninety mark.

The Remington Record observes that “Uncle Doc. Ritchey is a first rate elocutionist, and a man that is well posted ou all subj ects.’ Which one of the doctors ?

Mrs. Hicks, the Kentland murderess, had her trial at Fowler last week, and the decision of the jury was that she be sent to the Women’s Reformatory for a two year’s residence. There is only one man meaner than the person who borrows ten dollars from a friend and “forgets’’ to pay it baek ; and that is the fellow who borrow twenty-five cents in in the same way. The season for oyster festivals is at hand. The one at Spitler’s Hall last Saturday evening was rather sliraly attended, although oysters were plenty and sold at the low rate of twenty-five cents a dish. Some men can not afford to take their' county paper at an’expenseof less than three cents per week, although they think nothing of letting up half dollar’s worth of beer two or three times per week. •—*. Mrs. Chas. Jouvenat started for Knoxville, Tenn., Wednesday morning of last week, where she will remain during th*e winter, visiting with friends. This we learn from the Remington Record. The leading liquor merchant of St Louis, January by name, has entered suit for libel in the sum of SIOO,OOO damages against the Chicago Tribune, that paper having classed him with the defrauders of the government.

The letter list is no longer published by authority of the post-office department, at least, that institution no longer pays for haying it done. Thus in one way and another, this government of ours cuts down its expenses. Prof. T. M. Lott, the leading musician of the Rensselaer Dancing Club, failed to put in an appearance last Friday evening. The club will give a social every Thursday evening until further notice, commencing Thursday'evening, November 28,1876. The Prof, will be present this time. ' A Mrs. Hall, of Havanna, 111., has sued seventeen saloon keepers for $25,000 damages, for selling her husband whisky. If she gets it, it wiU probably be a better haul than the Hail she married, by considerable.

A wave struck us last Sunday—one of the polar kind. There are a great many roles to make married life comfortable, but the golden one is this: “Go slow and give each other half tho road.” This rale is as simple as milking a cow on the right side, and will be found as useful as oil to avoid hot journals and dry axles. A man calling himself Charles Hamilton was arrested at LaPorto not long since for “shoving the queer.” The staff he operated with was counterfeit fives on the first national bank of Peru. He succeeded in “shoving” about S6O of it before he was detected. Demorest’s Monthly Magazine, with an extraordinary premium, price $3.00 per year and the Jaspen Republican, $1.60 per year, wilhbe fornished to yearly subscribers at $4.00 per year, which will include postage on both the Magazine and Republican, and also postage on the premium. Mabbixd.—At the residence of the bride’s father, on Sunday, th e 21st day of November, 1875, by Esquire Harding, Mr. Joseph W. Lning to Miss Lncretia Pierson. The bride will accept our thanks for tt e nice cake, which was pronounced excellent, and may they live long and be happy.

Mrs. John Tharp died Thursday morning. Mrs. Tharp had been sick only about two weeks, and her death caused both surprise and sorrow among our citizens. She leaves a husband and one child, who have the deepest sympathy of this community in their great bereavement. —Remington Record. Charley Hopkins is flourishing the yard stick at the dry goods store of F. J. Sears & Co, where he will remain dnriug the winter. Charley is a good salesman, and an accommodating gentleman, and F. J. Sears & Co. keep an extensive stock of goods on hand, at living prices ; therefore, all persons desiring bargains will not fail to call at the Pioneer Store Our merchants are already preparing for the approaching holidays, and are filling their shelves with toys, fancy articles and all manner of attractive goods wherewith to inveigle the spare change from the generous pocket.. For the next month we may expect the store windows to loom up with the grand display of holiday good 3 which come once a year to remind us of childhood’s happy days. “Clem,” of Francesville, writes us as follows: “The merchants are doing finely.— Adams & Co. are doing the best business,” and he thinks “Mr. Adams is a clever gentle" man.” He also states that “H. D. Coover, formerly of Remington, a gentlemanly young fellow/ and a good salesman, is clerking for Adams & Co.” We would be glad to hear from “Clem” often on a more extensive scale.

Mr. Peter Kelly, a jovial gentleman of Remington, was in town last Tuesday, and dropped into our den for a few minutes.— He inflated our volume of currency by depositing three dollars with us for two subscriptions to the Republican —on to bo sent to his address and the other to be sent to a relative in Wisconsin. Each of our subscribers should send the Republican to at least one friend. Valparaiso Vidette : “Rov. Wm, P. Shockcy, of West Lebanon, Ind., whom we take to be the same who years ago preached Adventism at Rensselaer, ha 3 sin ;e become a Universalist Union Missionary, for support and spread of Universalist religion. Wh p ther this is in connection with the Universalist denomination, or is independent of it, tho proceedings published in the Danville Commercial do not show. Messrs. Mclntire & Shaw are fixing up the new hall in good style. This hall is 40 xBO feet, with a 15x40 stage at the east end. At the head of the large stairway, leading from North street, is a small room which will be used as a ticket office,a nd immediately over the stairs is a coat room.— When this room is completed Remington can claim one ot the best town halls in this part of the State.— Record. Last Monday afternoon, about 2 o’clock, at South Bend, Ind.. a man by the name of Palmer, justice of the peace, shot Chas. T. Murray, editor of Bend Herald, on account of an article appearing in the Herald derogatory to the character of Palmer. He was shot on the stairway leading to his own offiee, with a large horse-pistol, tfie ball going through the body and lodging in the sidewalk. At last accounts Murray was still alive, with faint hopes of recovery.

Mr. Ludd Hopkins and lady, and two of their children, accompanied by Miss Louisa W. Austin, sister of Mrs. Hopkins and daughter of Mr. J. M. Austin, proprietor of the Austin Hotel, started for California via, Francesville Wanatah and Chicago, Thursday morning, November 25, 1876. They expect to rumain on the Pacific Slope until about the first of next May. Messrs. Frank Hopkins and Wm. B. Austin will engineer the mercantile establishment of Mr. Ludd Hopkins, during the absence of the latter. ■ <«> . Col. J. F. Hoy, of New York City, a very popular temperance speaker, will deliver two lectures at the court house in Rensselaer, on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, November 80th and December Ist, 1875. Col. Hoy lectured in Kentland, Goodland and Remington, last spring, and was very much, admired as a lecturer by the citizens of each of these towns. As he was advertised to lecture in Rensselaer, last spring, and foiled to come to time, he says “tell them no mistake this time.” Last Saturday evening Mr. Frank If. Bristol, of Evanston, HI., gave the reading entertainment in the M. E. Church, instead of Mr. Kranti, as was annou need in last week* s papers. The room-was not crowded at nil, but a very fair audience greeted Mr. Bristol’s first appearance in Rensselaer. He is a young man of a pleasing manner, has an excellent voice for reading, and everybody said he-performed well. We believe the “Quaker’s Letter” was rendered in a style that would be difficult to excel.

Mr. F. B. Donnelly finished bis joh of painting on the court house last Friday evening, and he did a first-class job, too. Tempebance-—There will be a called meeting of the Jasper County, Temperance Union at the presbyterian Church, on Monday evening, November 29th 1876. Order of Exercises.—first, Singing by the Choir; second, Reading the Scriptures ; third Reading the Minutes; fifth. Intermission of Fifteen Minutes; sixth Singing by the Choir; seventh, Declamations ; eighth, Miscellaneous Business; ninth Singing by the Choir, and Closing. All are earnestly invited to lend a helping hand in the good work. Exercises will commence at 7 o'clock sharp. Com. It now appears that the supposed security obtained by the dial plate combination on safes, is not so much a matter of certainty as it used to be, as the following item tends to show: “On Wednesday night last the postoffice at Clermont, lowa, was burglarized, and the safe broken. The lock was a dialplate combination. The rogues forced she dial through to the inside, and turned the safe over on its side, when the bolts fell back, and the door was opened. This is a new kink, which safe-makers should make a note of. About S2OO rewarded the rogues for their villainy.” We desire to call the attention of onr readers to the extraordinary inducements offered to all uersons who will subscribe for the Weekly Indiana State Journal with the Jaspeb Republican. Both papers will be furnished at the very low price of $2.75 per year, and each subscriber will receive an entirely new Township and Sectional Map of the State of Indiana, 35x48 inches in size, engraved and printed especially for the Indianapolis Journal. The retails at $2.50. No such desirable offer was ever before made to the people of this State. We take pleasure in adding that the Journal has been greatly improved as a political paper since the recent change of management, and it is now one of the best newspapers published in the West. A specimen copy of this map may be seen at our office. Agents and canvaasers wanted in every township in this and adjoining counties. Among the insurance companies soliciting patronage in our county, there arc none more deserving the confidence of our citizens than the American Fire Insurance Company, of Chicago. It is one of the safest and most reliable institutions of the kind in the country. No insuran co company is more popular among the farmers of the West than this, and none more extensively patronized by them. It is the strongest farmers insurance company in the world. In addi tion to its large assets, it takes no risks that can possibly effectjts ability to pay its losses. Its risks are confined to farm property, school houses, churches, and detached dwelling houses, entirely avoiding all risks in our large cities, and no conflagrations in those cities, however great, can possible effect them, for they hove nothing at stake.— This company is represented in this county by W. H. Shaw,*of Remington, and we take pleasure in recommending him and the company to our citizens, Seo Card. *

New Eooks. —Donnelly, Loyd & Co., the publishers of The Lakeside Library, announce a cheap George MacDonald’s new and famous historical novel, “St George and St Michael.” It is a stirring story of the civil wars in England, when men argued with swords the great questions of civil and religious liberty.

Though the ordinary price of the book is $1.75, The Lakeside Library edition is seat, postpaid, for only 25 cents! The same publishers have also issued “Ward or Wife?” a sparkling, vivacious story, told in a brisk, crispy way, and, indeed, one of the most entertaining books of the season. It is sent, postpaid, for only 12 cents. Truly, these publishers have brought about the millennial of cheap literature. For sale by all newsdealers, or sens postpaid by Donnelly, Loyd & Co., publishers, Chicago.

JORDAN TOWNSHP ITEMS.

A wild animal in the woods around Egypt is causing considerable excitement. It is pronounced by some, a panther, and by others, a lion. It was seen by Joe Roen one night as he was going through the woods. Joe was afoot and alone. The moon had just risen, and cast a pale, shadowy gloom over the woods, but Joe noticed none of these. He walked along briskly, looking neither to the right nor to the left, but suddenly he stopped short as the form of an animal leaped across the road in front of him and ascended a t ree. Joe’s hair was as stiff as the quills on a porcupine, and cold chills ran down his back in zigzag streaks as he saw the monster glaring at him with balls of fire. He didn’t let the grass grow under his feet while getting out of the woods. Tom Methena followed the animal three days and nights, but without being able to overtake him. One of the most credible stories comes from John Timmons. The animal chased his calves out of their pasture up to the house, aud as soen as it saw John it ran back in the timber, when John obtained his gun and pursued it, but was unable to get a shot at it. He calls it a panther. Mr. Timmons is one of our most respectable citizens, and what he says can be relied upon. The boys never swing their girls along from the evening prayer meetings without sixshooters in their pockets, and they husk corn with shot-guns by their sides. Verily, Jordan township is getting to be a dangerous place. Henry Welch has just completed a new barn. Farmers are in the midst of eorn-husking. Nealy McCassel, Locke Wood am and Jim Lester went to Beaver Lake, on a hunt, last week. They didn’t get mnch game, but said they had “a who’ lot o’ fun.” Arm Lewis shipped some cattle to Pittsburgh last week. Returned Saturday. He will ship another lot soon.

Rensselaer is still ahead of Remington and Se&field. Remington can only get two story. William Wilmore writes from Madison qounty, lowa, that he has not heard a word from his two sons and W. S. Bedford, who started through with teams a couple of months since. He says he has made inquiries, but can not ascertain their whereabouts." The dwelling house of George Bullis came very near burning down the other night. One of the boys went into a closet with a lighted candle, and some clothing caught fire. Fortunately, it was discovered before much damage was done. Miss Lydia Dwiggins commenced teaching school at Egypt Monday; Also, Park Wright, at Never Fail. The lari, news heard from the Jordan township roarer was, that Tom Metbena had captured it at the mouth of Carpenters creek. “Well done, thou good and faithful servant,” Thomas.
