LOCAL AND MISCELLANEOUS. e A ) TEOIE. - i n@mﬁfﬁ”&u»mm _war subscription list unlegs payment in advance is made. No deviation from this rule will be permitted. ' Persons whose subscription dates from the commencement of the present volume will be granted time until the Ist day of September to pay their subscription at our advance rates— $2,00 per annum. If not paid by that time, an additional charge will in all cases be imposed. It will readily be observed from the above that we are determined to manage the business affairs of this office somewhat differently from what has been our “custom heretofore. We are tired of begging for our hard carned dues, paying interest on money to carry on the publi: cation of our paper, and to spend onethird of our income for collecting pur‘poses. Persons who want’ to read the DBANNER must pay for it, and that in advance. :

- (..C. Glatte has just received a large invoice of teas—embracing all grades and prices. He prides himself on keeping the best stock of tea in the market, : WaATERLOO CrTY has a population of 1194—considerable less than generally supposed. The enumeration was taken by Rev. Littell, "who ‘charged $l5 for his trouble—low enough, but the council allowed him only §B. ettty O PPt ok Ir we should “expose ourself,” as ‘the Noble County Journal suggests—a namesake and relative of its editor might be discovered. We beg to decliné.— Northern Indianian. | b ‘Never mind that, Reab! The diminutiveness of the “bamesake and relative” ‘ precludes all possibility of recognition. i il & R ‘ " LiBERAL.—The Democratic Union shys that the Elkhart hydraulic company offer to make a free gift of water power sofficient to operate a woolen mill, to any party or company who will come forward end axcept it. The same offer was made last week to Messrs, Alderman & Winegar of Goshen. . el B P s i Tug SaLks of Wm Crow, the popular grocery dealer at Kendallville, amounted to $45,000 during the past year. This is what we call business, and regard it as conclusive evidence that men who are liberal advertisers and keep a good stock of goods on hand, always have the largest number of customers and give the most satisfaction. Setant iy — # e [ Tue editor of the Kendallville Standard—llike the fish-woman of old—is determined to have the iast word on the poetry question. Well, so be it. Itevidently does the old woman good, and to further excite her irritability would e\ regarded 3 ; =3 . as an act of cruelty. A consciousness of being in the right fully subserves our purpose. b e :

WE take pleasure in calling the attention of our readers” to the advertisement of Mr. Levi Diller, in another column of to-day’s paper. The fanning mills which . he advertises and of which he is the . manufacturer, are spoken of in ‘the highest terms of commendation, and seem to be exactly the thing for farmers, just now. il : ———— ,Mz. L. Low, the enterprising clothing nian, started for New York on Saturday - lnst; with the deliberate intention of pur- " chasing an immense stock of ready made —clothing, &. Louis says our farming community shall have no reason to complain of a scarcity of wearing apparel, so far as he is concerned. Kid : It is a little singular that the home -organ of Billy Williams—the Warsaw Indianian—has thus far failed ‘o offer even a solitary line in defense of “our Billy,” notwithstanding the fact that several radical prinf,s in the District have sttackted him in the most violent:manner. Is Reub. disaffected, or is he trying to koop down the bvaupuov 14 UG WKarpuL B ‘Billy’s instigation? ~ | o

Camp MERTING,—The Goshen District Camp Meeting wlll commence at Lagrange on to-morrow, August 12th, and continue one week.

' A LArar Cror of wheat has been harvested, threshing has commenced, and our farmers are now hauling the products of their toil to market. Asa large portion of their earninge will be applied to the purchase of all kinds of merchandise, our rural friends will do well to' consult the advertising colimns of- the BANNER, and buy of those who extend au invitation to them to do so. A man who can‘not afford to advertise, cannot afford to well at & fair price. There is no use in arguing that point, because it is a fact.

AMENDE, HONORABLE.—It seems that ‘an article which recently appeared in ‘our columns, credited to the Allentown (Pa.) Democrat, was the property of the! . Ft. Wayne Demoerat. We copied the article from one of our Pennsylvania exchanges, crediting it os we found it.— . Had our Pt. Wayne contemporary sent us his paper regularly, instead of depriving us of it for several months, that really excellent article could have been laid before our readers geveral weeks earlier,. copied from, and credited to, the paper in which it originally appeared.

' Browrierp, August 6th, 1869. J. B. Broll.—~Dear Sir :—Beeing thet you lm've:;ﬂtogether ceased to visit our hpmble vi_llage_‘,‘ I concludg; 't:; ‘szg%em_v%? S ‘fbw!h:,'?‘& é::" ;:t.;-have forgoten us

‘entirely. : i " Now that the rains come less frequently,and the streets arc getting passably dry, our people move along with the hilarity of other days; the merchants are doing a flourishing business, the community is healthy, and Dr's. are being fast driven to want. Our town, in order to ‘kéep ‘pace with our neighboring City (Rome,) is endeayoring to keep up a suc cession of dances, but the young people, as a ruleé, having bte_n bred up in religious: horror of such a silly way of wearing out leather and wasting wind, turn out in so few numbers that it would: seem the darling cq'terprise must fail for want of patronage, were it not that a few old folks—heads of families—have kindly and ambitiously come to the rescue, believing as they do that Heaven consists alone in such nocturnal revélry as they may obtain while sojourning in the flesh ; some mothers, even, considering it so very essential taht the dance shall be kept up, have been known to array themselves in costly attire, and’ leave the husband to take care of the little ones at home, while they hie away to the “jolly” dance, and enjoy themselves “pully.” Even lgst night the dulget. strains of a fiddle could be heard faintly pealing up from, the lower part of our town, while many who bad a surplus of wind were there going through as varied and graceful gyrations ag dn amorous old Gobler in the fair month of May—to rotire in the “wee sma’ hours” while “every thing was lovely,l and the goose hung bigh.” ‘ |

“But enough on this subject at present. ‘We_ have just beex'r ~sending some of our worthy citizens, as emigrants, to othar towns. We have sent a Dr. and a Drug Store to Cherebusco—the citizens of which place may soon expect a lively taste of physic and “doctor stuff” We have also sent a double-teamed grocery store to Port Mitchell. I will tell you on the sly why we did this. You know we want the county-seat nere, but Port Mitchell gops”agaipst us. We expect, undef cover of said grocery, to sell enough bad whisky, (pré)vided the proprietors do not drink it all themselves) to kill a majority of thje Mitehellites so that when the vote is taken, that element of opposition -shall have passed away, and our town thereby reccive an overwhelming majority. Butlbave written enough for once, although I have not told you e o e

Tne EcLipse.—On last Saturday, the 7th inst., occurred the great phenomenon of'the year. * For weeks the public mind had been attracted to the expected event, and much impatience was manifested as time in her prolixity slowly measured the intervening space, when the great celestial show should be witnessed. Time never lags in her ceaseless flight, and at last the anxious and impatient were gratified to the fullest extent. The eclipse commenced at this' place a few minutes before 5 and reached its greatest heighth at about 5:40. The sky was cloudless, the weather all that could have been asked, for: satisfactory observations. — About nine-tenths of the solar surface was darkened. At the highest state of obscuration ae::fﬁutifnl glimmering twilight overspread the earth, the light being about equal to that given by Lupa in her extreme, fulness. The |greater portion of our population were in the streets with smoked glasses, all seeming intense: ly interested in watchirig the different phases of the eclipse. The chickens and othet fowls sought their roosts, with one honorable exception—that of a cock in the flock of Col. Denny, who, doubtless, has had previous experiencein these matters, and like Peter’s rooster of Biblical notoriety, hopped on top of the fence and showed his disgust for the weaker members of his species by engaging in a prolonged fit of srowing. Tho phonomonon was- & very remarkable one, even here, where it was 'not total, and it will doubtless be long remembered by all who witnessed it as a matter worth being described and talked about for years. »

Bro. Cox, of the Kendallville Journal, gives expression to some beautiful thoughts in the following reference to the scenes.of his younger days: 1 We were on a visit to our old homestead in Ohio, two summers ago. Just twenty years before that time we took a drink from the spring at the bottom of the hill, in the shade of a young and thrifty tree.—And we went among strangers.. Our image reflected then was that of & young boy; but now as we looked into the depths of that mirror and twenty years have thrown their sunshines and shadows- across our pathway, we had grown old and gray, and the young tree had become a mighty “monarch” We conldisecarcely realizo tho chango.

It is with feelings of deep regret that we are called upon to announce the probable death of our former townsman, Capt. Lucius Barney. A letter from his wife at Hastings, Minn., states that Lucius was at the point of death, and all hopes of his recovery were abandoned. She says: “on the R4th ult, he bursta blood vessel, and nothing could stop the terrible hemorrhage until the following "Wednesday.” At the writing of the letter, Capt. Barney was still alive, but failing rapidly. - 1f he dies, hisbody will be taken to the home of his fathier, at Spencer‘ville, De Kalb county. e Te e : Wagar.—Thé staple grin that makés the choicest bread that Americans eaf, is coming in freely. It comes from all parts, and is readily received at $1,35 for choice white, and $1,30 for the best quality of red. Inferior grains run down as low as $1,25. Any one having grain to sell; had better sell it, rather than attempt the folly exhibited & year ago, of holding on for bigger prices, and getting less than half of what they expected to ‘grend ootillion pio oin the grove Reat it S it T R R T R %‘*Hﬁ’m»‘}mwaﬁ?&w%&ﬁ% L T

e [ Seo'vo decorate the inside of the church. Seldom has it been our lot to witness'so much taste in the display of besutiful boquets and evergreens. The first thing that caught the eye on entering the Church were two ladders, fited into recesses on either side of the pulpit, on each round of which were the names of Bibli- ] cal plants, in beautiful letters ingeniously ‘made of evergreens. Between the names and on both sides of the ladders, were evergreens, and over the whole an arch, on which ‘were the words “The Garden of the Lord.,” At an early hour the house was uncomfortably filled by an intelli- ? gent and well-behaved audience. The ex_ercises were opened with prayer, followed by an appropriate hymn, by a large choir “under the lead of Mr, David Simmons, an accomplished and successful teacher of music. The exercises were interspersed with scripture lessons by the scholars and enchanting musie by the choir, and in numerous instances assisted by the whole school. One |of the most beautiful features of the,evening was the presentation of crowns by Mrs. Beazle to her class—we regret that we have forgotten the title of this beautiful and impressive exercise. It is also a matter of regret that we have not the space to fully degcribe all the interesting performances of the evening; but suffice it to say that the scholars, without exception, acquitted themselves nobly and creditably. Great credit is due the teachers and others who participated in decorating the building and conducting the interesting ceremonies of the evening. This Church never fails in making entertainments of this kind satisfactory successes, and we earnestly. hope that its members will increase their efforts in the cause of SBabbath Schools. £ :

A DeMccrATIC FRIEND of ours has just imparted the somewhat startling intelligence to us that there is a Dent living in Noble county, and that he has not yet been!appointed to a lucrative office by Ulysses I. We had supposed ‘that the “great beuefactor of relatives” had not only appointed all through whose veins flows the illustrious blood of “Jesse,” but also all the innumerable descendants of his irrepressible father-in-law. However, it is a fact that the claims of the Noble ¢ounty Dent have thus far, for some reason or. other, been overlooked. Inthe name of justice and equity we demand for him an immediate ap-l pointment to a lucrative position.

BeAUTIFUL MoNUMENT.—A few days ago we stepped into the Marble Shop of Inks & Voris, and examined a Monument to be erected in the Warsaw Cemetry.— This beautiful attestation to the departed, is made of the purest Italian marble, and poliched in a manner that defies imitation, The symmetrical proportions, and the ingenious sculpturing of the cap, or vase, confirms the universal opinion that Charley has no superior in Indiana as a tasteful and first class workman. It is decidedly a compliment to Ligonier enterprise that persons at a distance come here for first class workmanship. ‘

SeNsißLE.—The Kendallville Standard has opened the agitation for the improve/mient of highways leading into that city, 'justly claiming that greater benefits would arise from the expenditure of a few thousand dollars for gravel roads than ten times that amount investedin Railroads. There can be no doubt on this point, nor do we know of roads anywhere that-are in a more horrible condition than those leading into Kendallville.
