NOTWITHSTANDING the fact tinat the radical presé were lond in their denunciation of the nomination of Jesse R. Grant for the position of pest-master at Coving ton, the Senate of the United States wereé not slow in confirming the nomination of the venerable father of Ulysses I, and thus providing for another member of the Grant family. o ey el A e e TaE singing of the Amphionsat Mier’s Hall, on Saturday and Monday evenings, was a rich entertainment for our citizens. ‘The pieces rendered were well selected, and, althopgh there were but three sing: crs, the programihe was sufficiently varied to make jt interesting. “The best piece they sang was, “The Heavenly Gates Ajar,” which alone was worth the price of mission.

It speaks of him in the following favorable terms:.“ A gentleman of varied information, pleasing address and the strictest integrity, he is an 'honor to his party, and would grace any position it would assign him. And we have faith to believe he wouldn’v cheat the printers, as did Andy Ellison in the last campaign.” i U e e Sanh ormeme Durina last week a detachment of soldiers passed over the Michigan Southern railrond, on their way to the city of the saints. Their actions at Elkhart, South ‘Bend, and other places along the line of their route, was disgraceful to the uniform they wore. On the arrival of the train at most of the stations, the officers and pri vates woula immediately scatter through the neighboring stores, appropriating ev crything that attracted ‘their pleasure or avarice, It would 'be better to let the Mormons rule in' Utah than to have the government of the Gentiles of that territory sustained by such a soldiery. f 1

" Tue following lesson for mothers, from - an exchange, we submit to the earnest attention of every mother into whose hands this paper may fall : “ It was a judiciofs resolution of a father, and a most pleasing cnmplflnent o his wife, when, on being asked by a friend what he intended-to do. + with his girls, replied, ‘I intend to apprentice them to their mother, that they ‘may learn the art, of improving time, and +be fitted to become wives, mothers, heads ~ of families, and useful members of society.’ Equally just, but bitterly painfal, was the remark of the unhappy husband of a vain, thoughitless, dressy woman :** It is hatrd to say it, but if my girlsare to have a chance of growing up good for anything, they must be sent out of the way_ of their own mother’s example.’ " 3 | ol i » .

Kendnllyville Correspondence. KENpALLVILLE, March 7, 1870. DeAR BAxNEß:—After an absence of | two weeks, we are again permitted to return to the metropolis ¢?) to find matters | as usual. We have not inquired after the | heal#h of the city, but presume it 1s good, 1 as we notice the Drs. standing in the ! doors of their offices, appearing like men | out of employment. , ~ There was quite an exciting little scene t enacted here one day last week; ropes | were talked of, and banging. How it originated, and the causes, we can nuti learn ; however the sheriff and bis aids | appeared ou the ground and suggested t that they be permitted to attend to the | “hanging business” in this county. For the benefit of farmers and others | who need help during the coming spring, | we give notice that there are several ynuné ] men about town who are out of employ; | ment. To save them the trouble of profr | curing a certificate of qualifications, we | give them the following, gratis: they are | young men, can smoke cigars, drink “1£ | ger,” or anything stronger ; can swear or dance, play cards or billiards, and have a | great intellect for sleeping in the morn- | ing and waking with a headache. : No city in Northern -Indiana can boast’| a finer meat market than that of Walt- | man & Reynolds, of this city; and we | just now remember that Argus, jr., hasan invitation to give their meats a fair trial | at the home of one of the"proprietors. ' E.

Cuerse.—Since the repeated failures in the wheat crop, and especially since the great decline in the price of this staple, farmers in this section have been anxiously looking about for .snmcthingtthat will pay better than grain raising.” Some of them think stock-raising just the thing, and this branch of farming has undoubtedly paid much betterthan wheat-raising or several years past. We' notice, how ever, that the manufacture of Cheese is beginning to claim attention among agriculturists in the West. At the price which cheese and butter has been bearing for some time, we cannot see why the production of these articles would not be mare remunerative than the raising of stock for market. Cheese Factories are springing up in 'various parts of the country, and they gre all muking money. Who will start the first Cheese Factory in DeKalb county ?— Waterloo ity Press. We bave always regarded it very fool--Ish policy for farmers to depend almost exclusively upon their wheat crops. By devoting some attention and care to producing something besides wheat, ovr farmers would become more independent, and fewer complaints of scarcity of money might be heard. The cultivation of barley, rye, hops, &c.; has proved quite profitable, and many other articles might be: named that, always find ready sale. If the statements of butchers may be believed, there is a great scarcity of cattle in this locality, and uncommon high pricesare being paid for the same. Poultry generally commands a goqd price, and the supply is seldom adequate to the demand, Under these circumstances we can see no good reason why farmers should not try their hand at something besides growing wheat. Many a d()li‘a[migl)t be realized in that way, whilst. farmers’ wives always have an opportunity to keep their treasury in good condition by supplying the public with good butter and the products of their henneries, - : 5

Tuese thoughts of truthiand beanty are from the ready pen of a cotemporary : * Sprigg is coming, the season of flowers and sunshine. Its return is heralded not only by the singing of the blue-bird ard the robin, the green grass springing up by the wayside, and the pudding poplars, but by the republican candidates who are springing up thicker than poles ina hopyard. The saloon-keepers rejoice, and the loafers make merry. The old political stagers go forth into the lanesand by-ways and call out the voters—white, red and black —to takeé a drink.” | :

‘MAaNY of vur readers in this vicinity are availing themselves of the opportunity to secure staple goods at reduced figures, given them by Messrs, Straus & Meagher. A partial list of prices will be found in another column. We have heard that this firm, with‘ characteristic enterprise. were paying out gold and silver ag change, but, in the language of—somebody, we fear “ there has been some terrible mistake,” as gold is sitill above 114.

Just $O.:—A man who was too stingy to pay fora neat notice of a “Farm for Sale,” wrote it out and stuck it up in the Post Office. A gentleman looking for a farm was feferred to the notice in the office, but replied : “I don’t want to buy of kim, and besides I can't buy at a fair price of a man who advertises in that way, He'll steal the fence, the pump handle and the locks off the doors of the house before he gives possession.” °

CorrEE. — The following recipe is claimed to be superior to any other known for the purpose of “settling” coffee: As soon as you brown your coffee, and while the kernels are yet warm, to mix with it a beaten egg, say one egg to a pound.— The egg forms a covering around the kernels, preserving the ‘aroma and acting as an admirable settler. :

- The editor of the Kendallville Standard says we perlaver Democratic editors. We don’t understand tLe meaning of the word. Will Myers please examine his spelling book and correct. We admit our weakness, if such it can be considered, of enter taining the warmest feelings o! friendship for the members of the newspaper fraternity in this part of the State, and sincerely delight in speaking kindly and pleas antly concerning them when opportunity offers. We are sorry Mr. Myers feels differently. So fiir as politics are concerned, we recognize no distinction in our very friendly relations with the mewmbers of the editorial profession, and trust the time may never come when we shall feel otherwise.— Lagrange Standard. - :

We didn’t suppose Bro. Myers, of the Kendallville:Standard, was so exceeding-ing'y-narrow-minded and small as to get mad at the editor of the Lagrange Standard, because the Ligonier Banner and Columbia City Post had the courage to say that Devor of the Lagrange Standard was the ablest Republican. editor in this District. Myers' article of last week was in very bad taste. In fact jt stunk of lit: tleness.— Columbia Caty Post.

Miss Lovisa HabpLEy, living with her step-brother three miles north-east of Li gonier, was very seriously burned, on the morning of Wednesday last. She had been feeling somewhat indisposed during the night, and it is supposed that she was seized with a spasm—the lesult of some medicine she had been taking—and féll into the fire, when her clothing ignited, and were nearly burned off when she was reached by her step brother and a young man who was staying in the house. She was so severely burned that the skin of her feet and other portions of her body fell off, and it/ was shought that ber injuries would prove fatal, but there are hopes now of her recovery. - i

. Mary ANN StTRrRaUS, mother of the Straus Brothers in this place, died the latter part of Februpry, at Cluefferath, Prussia, aged 83 years. The. deceased, by the death -of her husband, became a widow 32 years ago, bestowing during that period her motherly careupon fifteen children, and amply providing for their education. Ifer sons, sih_ce their residence in this country, annually sent her two hundred dollars, which she distributed among the poor in her neighborhood.— The death of a woman of such generous impulses is, 4s a ‘matter of course,. deeply lamented in the circle of her usefulness, ; b S ety @ i e ]

WE understand ‘'that Gen. Hascall intends to open the Congressional campaign in a public speech, in Hascall’s Hall, before many/days. We suppose his antago nists will then *“ see the fur fly,” for certain, and Billy Williams will be annihi lated, surély.— Goshen Times, We hope due notice of the time will be given, so'as to afford people outside of Goshen an opportunity to hear the lion roar. The subject is one of great interest, and deserves to be discussed betore a large sudience.' - .

ToE Repuolican Central Committee of this Congressional District has decided to hny/the‘cnnvention on or about the 17th of June——the anniversary/ of the battle of Bunker Hill. By a resolution passed at the last convention, Goshen is to be the place of meeting.— Elkhart Review. Considering: the fact that the antagonistic spirit among the various aspirants te congressional honors is constantly on the rise, we recognize an eternal fitness in the selection of a “stormy day.”

- Tur difference'between the Democracy and the Republicans on the megro ques: tion, may be briefly stated as follows : The - Democrats have always extended to the 'negro the opportunity to work and gain an honest livelihood, whilst the monopoliste ~of the radical party grant him;the glorious privilege of casting a ballot and pre: paring for starvation.’ T ; — . - —— .
