" PEmsoNAL—We were most happily surprised on last Saturday evening, by the entrance into our sanctum of our for“wer editorial associate, T. J. Smith, Esq., now of Pensylvania, - The fine Alpachian breezes seen; “to have had a fine effect upon Thomas, as he looks hale a .hearty, and reports everything as lgvel;: and the historical hissing bird of Rome ‘hanging high. Mr. 8. will remain among his friends here fora few days, when he “will againreturn to his home. : Hon. Simon Wile, of Laporte, also fa- * vored us with a call yesterday. . el - P - Francis HENRY, chairman of the-dem: ocratic central committee of Lagrange ° county, has issued a call for a meeting of said committee, to be held at the Court House, on Saturday, Sept. 11th, “ta consult together and take into consideration the propriety of celling a.County Mass Conventian, and the transaction of other important business which will come before the committee for action.” : eif 1] § As the 10 o'clock freight train was crossing the wagon',road, one mile west of Rome Btation, on Tuesday night, some unhung scoundrel fired a bullet through one of the windows.of the Caboose, inflicting a slight wound across the back of the conductor’s head, and lodging in the oppesite side of the car. There were several paasenqgfs .in the car at the time. 1t is earnestly | 'opg that the Rail Road company and the community will spare no means to ferret out the villain and - give Sheriff Kiser an early opportynity of giving him a hempen swing. :

Woxbperrun Doe.—Many have' been the enconiums that have been written on the dog. He has been the subject of many/learned and prosy disquisitions. Even Byron sang his usefulness in sweet poetic straing. 'We do not desire to speak learnedly on the subject of dogs- at this time, but simplyto make note ot the wonderful maternal affection displayed by a Lig_onier dog. AP o Dr. Denny, who is a great admirer of the canine species, has a dog of the feminine persuasion. Of course she raised | “purps,” and the Doctor distribated them amongst his friends, Dr. Randall was favored with his munificence, and, of course, greatly prided himself in his gift. Every night the “purp” was placed in Dr. Carr's barn for safe keeping, but, strange to say, each morning it was miss ing in the barn and found at Denny's residence, under the protection of its sagacious “parient” As to how the purp got there was for a time o mystery. Finally, in order that the world might be enlightened and the mystery solved, Drs.

- JeroME Bweger, one of the early settlers of Noble county, departed: this life on Tuesday, August 24th, 1869, - He was born August 11th, 1806, in Pompey, Onondaga county, N.Y. In the year 1884, he emigrated to Ohio, and resided in- Huron county, in that State, for about ¢ight years. In the year 1842, he came to Indiana, and settled in Jeffersofr township, Noble® county, on the spot where he died—having lived there twen-ty-seven years. '

Inall the relations and affairs, of his life, Jerore Sweet was a true man, and model citizen. His profession ro:‘ . Christianity, and long connection with the church, were fittle observed and considered, as facts—for he never obtruded them as indices of character. His’ special character as a professed follower of Christ, was merged in that unfolded by the constant action of a noble and generous nature, guided by the unobtrusive Bpirit of genuine and practical christian morality. In his domestic and social relations, his kindness, patience, firmness and continued cheerfulnesssecures the af: fection and unquestioning confidence of !‘lis family and neighbors. His personal influence was of a rare and happy kind. In him, cheerfulness was a perpetual fountain, welling and sparkling without cessation ; hope, was a continual inspiration, diffusing - sunshine on all areund. him. Free from bigotry—loving truth, Jjustice and honesty for their own sake, yet eminently charitable, his ‘career was one of great. usefulness in the circle of his ficquaintance. - ! ‘Mr. Sweet possessed an active, sanguine temperament, great native tact, sagacity, and sound judgment. Added to these a disinterested public spirit, made him eyer a-trusted counsellor and leader in the local interests and affairs of the community. - He. was prominent, and personally, practically efficient in all ed: ‘Ucational movements, Whatever his hand found to do, in aid or operation of common and Sabbath schools or other progressive enterprises, he did with his ntight—and con_amore. During his ‘res. idence in Noble county he was called to public.service, repeatedly, in evefy position of responsibility and trust in his township; and in the long session pof 1851-2, the first under the new Constitufion, he represented Noble county in she Legislature of the State. In all relations and positions, private and public, he so did his duties, to_;fGod, his country, his family, and neighbors, as to.make his life beautiful and>beneficent—his sudden death - an occasion of wide-spread sorrow, apd sense of irreparable loss. -

" A funeral ‘discourse was preached at the residence of the deceased, to a large concourse of neighbors and friends, by the Rev. Z. Thomas, on Thursday, August 26th—after which the mortal remains ot him, so loved and honored through life, as the affectionate husband, kind and exemplary parent, wise and faithful friend, and upright, useful citizen, were borne to their last resting place. There the gray-haired witnesses of his life-work—companions of his lifejourney—mingled their tears with those leaping from the hearts of the young, to whom he was ever an indulgent friend, intelligent adviser and pure exemplar.— Yet, his own bright example—the sunshine of cheerful hope which. ever beamed on his living countenance, tempers the gloom of sorrow ; and we ]

: Kendallvitlle Correspondence. : KENDALLVILLE, Aug. 80th, '69. ‘MR, Eprror :—According to promise I am agdin on hand with a few items from our city. On waking up la.stf'l‘tiesday morning we were agreeably surprised to find our’ City Silver Band on the street, armed and equipped for the Catholic'picnic. After giving -us several pieces, (among them the St. Pdul Waltz, Daisy Dean March, and sandry others, too nu-. merous to mention) they started for the grove in a wagon gotten up for the occasion. I.would say that this Band was organized under the leadership of Mr. Herbst, a very fine musician, and the ‘boys piay exceedingly well, considering the time they have been practising.— Well, we all had a good time and came home perfectly satisfied with the day’s amusement. On Wednesday the Band was again on hand, ready for the Sabbath School pic-gic, five' miles north of here. So you see 'we are rather a sociable people. up hére. Arriving at the grounds, they played some three ot four pieces, after which we had singing from the different schools, one under the su: pervision of Jake Reyher, and the other under Charles McDuffee. We must give Jake our choige, but still Charley may lead, with a little more practise. On Thursday night we had the pleasure of seeing the Gelden Farmer and the Loan of a Lover by our Thespian Troupe.— They do exceedingly well for amateurs, Ou Friday night we.had the Pearl of Bavoy, and Kiss in the Dark, On Saturday night they repéated the Golden Farmer, together with a farce entitted the lgafin'efick‘ Boy, which created quite a laaghable sensation. To stop and give you a more minute account of each actor of actress would take too long. However, I will tryand do so next week. I cagnot close without saying o word in favor of the orchestra under the leadership of Mr. J. Forsyth, assisted by Miss L. M. Detehy, Marvo Cary and William Herbst, whose sweet music added greatly to_the entertainmont of i present, Tonight they play, by specisl request, the Pearl of Savoy and Limerick ‘Boy.— You shall hear from me aguin next week, and until then T am truly yours, H.

SN SRR SSR e e T A e MERBTELE 055 X me fnr‘z:hc ace in your columns this week, for the purpose of giving my sisters a lecture upon some of their nonsensical apings after their mistaken notions"of the god or godgess of fashion.— In the first \‘i)lw_q-, it is painful to me to see young ladies —and old ones too — Fromenading our streets in costumes all covered with fl‘mneu, farbelows, and gaudy ribbons, which I have no doubt the poor benighted creatures think is the fashion among the aristocracy of the large cities. 'Why, Mr. Editor, sugh ha biliments upon the street are the distinguishing marks in those places, be'tween the women of the town, and the decent, respectable portion of our sex, they never showing themselves in that ‘manner. Again, let any one visit the. ‘most aristocratic churches in any of our’ cities, and there they canhot fail to no-J tice that the most aristocratic, intelligent and fashionable ladies dress in a neat, plain and unpretending manner.— Gorgeous dressing, jewelry, and curled bair, among them, is nevér- resorted to, only at large dress purties. I hope that the mania forsuch apings in future will be avoided by all those who wish to have their appearance indicate to those not acquainted with them, to which class they belong—to the demi-monde, or the respectable class. Perhaps in a future number, I may also give the young gentlemenf a lesson. MoLLIE PARTICULAR. | el B— CuaNGE oF TiME.—The -time for the arrival: and departure of trains on: the Lake Shore iind Michigan Southern Rail‘way has been changed. Since Monday ‘lagt- trains arrive at this station as follows: Mail, going East, 1.32 r. m.; Ex-| press, 1041 p. 3 ; Special New York Ex-| press, 348 p, M. Mail, going West, 3,10 P.

R’s,, an additional Express, called the Special New York and Chicago Express, or “lightning train,” has been placed on the road. This train runs through from New York to Chicago and stops only at principal stations along the line. It stops at Ligonier. Citizens of Kendallville and Goshen desiring to take passage on this train will please report at Ligonier.

“HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE.”’-—The Editors of the Tenth Distriot, and their invited guests, were treated with a princely hospitality, at- the recent convention at Elkhart. The Review gives the following names of the gentlemén who assumed the responsibility and expense of making things so pleasant for their guests. It is but just that they should be known as the liberal and leading men of their ‘beautifal oity: : '

_J. R: Beardsley, John Cook, B. L. Davenport, A. 8. Davenport, J. D. Sherman, R. K. Brush, 8. S. Strong, J; MeNaughton, C. B. Mann,' A. Pope, A. P. Simonton, 8. Baldwin, 8. M. Cummins, M. F. Shuey, 0. H. Maine, W. C. Wilson, J. P. Elliott, B: F. Stephens, V. Butler, A. M. Tucker, M. Strong, Dean Swift, Harry Bostwick, and B. D. Sherwood. The modesty of Messrs. C. H.: & G. 8, Chase, proprietors of the Review, we suppose, compels them to omit their own names. It is only just t 6 say that to these gentlemen is due the lion’s share of the praise. Tfiefgenegopsly spent not only their tinre but their money in making the convention a grand stccess.

BALLOON AsCENsloN.—The balloon as cension by Prof. Wilbur, took place at the Fair Ground in this place, on Saturday last. The attendance by those who had the necessary dimes to see the “animule” within the gates of the inclosare was rather meagre—the greater number of the people being on' the outside, The balloon was inflated with hot air, and represented to be 78 feet high by 58 feet in diameter—although we “didn’t see it in that light.” The humbug (improp‘erly inflated) arose upwardsabout 6». M. ‘and took a south easterly course and lan‘ded near Mr. Simmons’ barn, about a half mile distant from the place of starting. The /Prof. had his face slightly scratched in consequence of his being drawn over several fences in close proximity to where be landed. . The exhibition did not come up to the expectations of balloon admirers generally. : S o ; : Communicated. It was a very small trick on part of H, Hostetter and one or two others, to crawl through an opening of the ' fair-ground fence, on Saturday last, to witness the ‘balloon ascension, ard thereby evade the ‘payment of the entrance fee. It was decidedly mean, especially in view of the fgct that his conduct was severely censured by the pubscriber, H W,.
