The advance system is the proper remedy in such cases.

‘R. 8. V. P.—Our friend A. H. Herts, of Kendallville called on -us last week to tuke his leave, as he started for Vicksburg, Miss., on Monday last. He is to engage in the wholesale dry-goods trade, in company with his brother, in that city. Abe takes with him the good will of all the printers, and many of the citizens of; the county, | / i

Cnaxee.—The Kelly House, at Kendallville, has been leased for three years, to Messrs. C. F. Earll and Wm. C. Childs. We are pleaged to learn that the former proptietors‘of the Childs House are again kecping a hotel. in that place, however much we may regret the withdrawal of Mr. Kelly. The new proprietors know how to * keep hotel in Indiana,” and traveling men will govern themselvos accordingly, nad

TarisMANIC.—A house in this town still supports over is door the words “ Protection Ins.

IN Luck.—We are pleased to learn that at the recent election in Labette county, Kansas, our friend James ‘'W. Pearce, son of Mr. Joseph Pearce of this place, was clected Recorder of Deeds by 56 majority over his republican competitor. When we take into consideration that Jim has been a resident of Kansas for’ not quite a year, his election to 8o \importint an office speaks very, favorably of the high estimate in which he is held by his new neighbors. Jim will no doubt make a good officer. e

The bottom is good, the first of the snow having fallen in mud beforé freezing, and with proper packing, will make good sleighing: During the period-of the firet sleighing last year, it was not properly improved by the farmers, they .depending on a full amount of sleighing through the winter.

. A Coxsprmacy—Tt ia well known that Mr. A. J. Mattison was. eomghinid ned of before the, authorities, by a bitter enemy, with having passed counterfeit money; and it is as generally known that the accusation was prompted through malice, and was without the least foundation.— ‘Mr. Mattison has long been a resident of ‘this and Elkhart counties, and is known by many of our citizens as an” honorable gentleman. That the accusation was but a congpiracy to rob him of his liberty, we have 1:?0 doubt. We take pleasure in republighing the following notice of the trial from the Grand Rapids Daily Eagle, published in the city where the trial took place : , “Mr. A. J. Mattison, who has been on trial Before the United States Court on the charge of passing counterfeit money, is a resident of Ligonier, Indiana. The gromﬂt acquital whidh b pecelved at the ands iof the jury, is sufficient evidence of his innocence of the charge, and we understand that the prosecuting witness has been arrested on the same charge. It was developed during the trial that the prosecution of Mr. Mattison was purely malicious, |The defense was conducted by the Hon. T. B. Church, of this city, and J. H. Baker, of Goshen, Ind., whose argument is spoken of as a very able effort. A personal friend of the accused, and fully believing in his innocence, he volunteered for the defense, and by rigid cross-inter-rogation, he showed up the true character of the : prosecution, which 'rendered the acquittal of Mr. Mattison certain.”

A little boy met his Sabbath School teacher and innocently asked her if to say “cofferdam” was swearing. She replied, “No, my dear ;; what makes you agk that question ?” His answer was: “I saw an old cowidown the street yonder ; she was nearly choked to death, and I.thought she would coff'er dam head off.” = * et 4 e Young ladies have adopted round hats instead of bonnets this season, and are wearing them not alone for semi-dress at chureh, ‘on the promenade, or when traveling, bl‘?t at wedding receptions, the opera, and for ceremonious visits when full dress toilettes are weguired. It was supposed at one time that Engel & Co. would lose everything by the fire, but from the size of tige piles of goods stored in their new room in Bossbacher’s’ Block, it would seem that they had saved everything.

Dear .Sir :—Your letter, of the -11th inst., directed to Prof. Owen, was sent to me. Your county will be reaclied in the course of the survey, which is being pushed forward as rapidly as the funds at my disposal will admit of. The State pays the expense of the survey. ; - In advance of the survey of your county, I can assure you without the possibility of a doubt cn the subject, that no stong coal can be found, in workable beds. A few fragments of coal may be obtained from the glacial deposit which covers s large portion of Northern * Indiana, but not in quantities sufficient to give it commercial importance. Valuable deposits of Bog-iron ore and beds of Peat; are about the only minerals likely to be found in Noble county, in quantities that will pay to work. Yours truly, . i - BT Cox. A dispatch from Indianapolis says that Prof. Cox, the State Geologist, has discovered coal and iron deposits in Vermillion county. Without Cox the people of Indiang would hardly know how well off they really are.— Zerre Haute Journal. This ¢alls to mind the pleasant little controversy between.
