W learn from the Kendallville papers that our old friend, J. B. Kelly, has purchagedthe “Childs House” in that city, and is now ready to welcome his former guests and numerous friends to comfort able quarters and heavily laden tables.

A. UNIVERSALIST SABBATH SCHOOL was recent'y orgauized in this plsce, with the following persons as officers :—Superintendent, Lewis Covell, Esq¢.; Assistant Superintendent, John W. Higginbotham; Librarian, Mrs. Anna llostett’er;a} Treasurer, Effie Hollister. :

. FroM the Kendallville Advertiser we learn that Mr. Albert Wilson's resideace, west of Iddings' Corners, was destroyed by fire, on Thursday of last week. Owing to the strong wind on that day, most of the houschold furniture, &c., was lost. It is stated that he had no insurance. |

FARMERS will please take notice that William Crow, at Kendallville, has a big stock of New Orleans Sugar ‘and .molasses, coffee, tea, &c., which he will sell at re- ¢ duced prices in exchange for bacon or 4 other country produce. If you do not believe it, call and see for yourselves. { Ai i i Woop WaNTED,—We are in immedi- ' ate need of several cords of wood, and will receive the same in payment of sub-;séription-g ~ Our patrons will please bear ol mind, however, that it is unfairto ask ~ us to aHow $2.00 for a $1.50 load. We cannot afford to take that amount of wood in place of $2 00 cash. ‘ s . el e e OuR editorial on “Sociel Equality,” a few weeks since, is being extensively cop ied by exchanges in this and adjoining States. Out of about a dozen papers that gaw fit to reproduce it in’ their columns, only one has given the customary credit. We offer no complaint—so “let ’er.run.” The sentiments contained therein cannot be too widely disseminated. RS RS : "Ausiox, April 17th, 1870. .

RexEwars. —The promptness with which many of our readers are revewing their subscription to'the BANNER i 8 highly gratifying to us. Those who come to our office in person speak in glowing terms of our paper, and evince an carnest desire for its future prosperity. Our worthy friend, Geo, Keehn, remarked the oth~erday: “The BANNEE is wﬂ’ the best county paper I ever read.” “: 9W A Au’ ‘,. ﬁh‘%‘ 5 ulu%-,!’ P ;,f We R L e e e

‘Four Broruers.—The following are | the names of four brothers, whose com- | bined age é 292 years, viz: ! Robert Galbreath, in Illinols, aged 76 Wm. Galbresth, near Ligonier, & 74 John Galbreath, at Ligonier, o 0 Jas. Galbreath, of Laporte co., Ind., “ 70 The history of this venerable brother hood and their ancestors is not without general interest. They were all vorn in Westmoreland Co., Pa., reared under the | teachings of the Presbyterian Church, | and from childhood imbued with the spirit of Democracy. They remained true to their religious and political professions during all these many years.. About 16 | yeats ago they emigrated to the West, and now reside in the localities above in- ! dicated. With the exception of John, | they are blessed with good health, and | apparently bear their age with remarkable preservation. The youngest of the four ‘brothers, James, was a delegate to the Democratic State Convention in Jan. uary last, and zealously advocated the nomination of the editor of this paper for State - Auditor. Willinm is a subscriber” to the Banner, and Jathes to the Laporte ‘ Argus—Robert and John ought to be, likewise, to one or the other of these papers. The mother of these brothers was captured by the Indians when only seven years of age; taken to Canada and there heldin captivity for seven weary years, until finally sold to English traders, who returned her to her friends. During her captivity she lost' all recollection of the | English language. An elder sister was dealt with more ficndishiy—the savages‘ cutting her body in four -quarters! The mother "of these girls was scalped, and left dead on the ground, with a babe firmly clasped to her breast; the child lived tor a period of eight months, and then died ot whooping cough. The house inhabited by the unfortunate victims of these fiends in human disguise was burned to the ground. During all this horrible butchery the husband was quartered in Fort Ligonier, unconscious of the deviltry committed at his: homestead. The. mother of the Galbreath brothers died at the residence of James about four years ago, aged 93 years. She retained a knowledgé of the Indian language to the time of her death. ! : We may add that the name of our town ‘was derived from the Fort Ligonier mentioned above. ‘

AMONG our numerous prompt-paying subscribers deserving honorable mention, we number Mr. Isaac Weimer, near this place. He has been a subscriber to the BANNER from the commencement of its publication, and always paid from two to three weeks in advance of the expiration of his subscription. Mr. Weimer is one of those true-hearted men whom we always delight to grasp by the hand, and to whose conversation we listen with pleasure. He is an old Pennsylvanian—a worthy representative of that sturdy class whose honesty and industry have become proverbial. For thirty-four years be bas been a resident of this part of the State -— formerly of Elkbart county, but more recently of Noble. Being an attentive reader of the BANNER, he is,as a matter of ' course, well versed cn-all subjects of public concern, and holds an abiding faith in the final triumph of democratic principles. o i

HoxesTY ‘EXEMPLIFIED. — In lodking over our books, we noticed with pleasure that during the four years' publication of the BANNER, we have not lost over 62 cents on subscription from our entire list of subscribers at the Wawaka P, Oo.— Taking into consideration that we have regularly sent from 23 to 55 papers to that office, it must be .conceded that this is.an evidence of financial integrity that speaks volumes in favor of the honesty of those who enjoyed the weekly visits of the BANNER. No higher weed of praise could be _b‘o,istowed upon a community than that of having a ¢lean, honorable record on the pages of a newspaper subscription ‘book. -

CoLoRED JURYMEN.—The Elkhart Union states that in a recent trid before a Justice in that town, “Marshal Bostwick impanneled a jury, ‘and to show proper respect for the Fifteenth Amendment, as we suppose, included two “American citizens of African descent”—GeoDßean and Charles Allen—and when they appeared before the massive court, one of the legal gentlemen had the effrontery to exercise his prerogative, and those who “fought nobly,” were excused! The excusables showed their ivory and looked dark asa thunder-cloud, but find good sense enough to leave the court without disturbance.”

TaE other week we published a brief biographical: sketch of our venerable tel-low-citizen, Mr. Alvin Randall, in which, however, we inadvertently neglected to give mention to a very iniportant fact, viz: that until the year 1866 he never voted anything but a Whig, and subsequently a Republican ticket. When he discovered the revolutionary snd destructive tendencies of the republican party, his patriotic spirit would nx/longer permit im to affiliate with that organization, and he consequently identified himself with the Democracy. His example is worthy of emulation. _

AXNIVERSARY OF ODD FELLOWSHIP.— The coming celebration of the introduction of Odd Fellowship into the United States, known :as the fifty-first anniversary, to be held at Ligonier, on Tuesday, April 26th, is looked forward to with much.interest, not only by the members of the Order, but others interested in the great principles of benevolence and charity. The ceremonies, which will be held at Mier's Hall, will consist of an oration by Rev. A. Marine, of Warsaw, and music by the Kendallville Silver Band, in the atternoon. In the evening will be held & Social, which will be interspersed with short remarks, music, toasts, &c, to attend ‘which a general invitation is given.

SoLoMON, the wise king, counselled every one "to improve the understanding;” and Fred, W. Shinke responded appreciatively oy offering a large and cheap stock of boots, shoes gaiters, &c., which will, if properly used, materially improve the “understanding” of the wearer, =

Gro. 8. DugsLER keeps and is constantly adding to his large stock of Gro ceries, Confectioneries, and Notions, the cheapest sugars and syrups in town.— Everything in the grocery line constantly on band. Tobacco and Cigars of the finest brands, . Call and be convinced.

TrE FEAsT oF THE PassovEß.—On Fridsy last commenced the Jewish Anni- : versary of the Passah or the Feast of the Passover, which will continue until six | o'clock on Thursday evening. The Passover is defined 8 passingover, sparing’or protection. The Passover, like the Sabbath and other institutions, had a twofold reference—historical and typical — l As a commemorative institution it was designed to preserve among the Hebrews a grateful sense of their redemption from Egyptian bondage, and of the protection granted to their fifst born on the memorable night when all the first born of the Egyptians were destroyed. The word passover has these general acceptations in Scripture { First, it denotes the yearly so lemnity celebrated on the 14th day of Nisan or ‘Abile, which was strictly the. Passover of the Lamb; for on that day the Israelities were commanded to roast the lamb and eat in their own houses.— Second, it signifies that yearly festivity celebrated Jon the 14th of Nisan, which is called the Feast of the Passover. It denotes the whole solemnity commencing. on the 14th and ending on the 21st day of Nisan, though in strictness of speech the Passover and the Feast of Unfermented Things are distinct observances. |

AN IMPRESSION seems to prevail in the minds of many of our citizens that Perry township is without a Justice of the Peace invested with legal authority to exercise the functions of that office. As this jmpression may to some extent have been derived from a° communication that appeared in a recent issue of this paper, we deem it proper to state that Squire Skillen has surrendered bis and Squire Beebe’s docket to Edmund Richmond, Esq., and that no doubt is entertained by attorneys of Mr. Richmond's authority to officiate us a Justice, and that no question can be raised as to the legality of his official acts. From a somewhat careful examination of the arguments advanced pro and con, we have. no hesitancy in giving it as our opinion that Mr. Richmend has not forfeited his right to the office he now holds, by reason of his acceptance of % corporation trusteeship. :

CATTLE DISEASE.—Since our last report of the ravages of a mysterious cattle disease prevailing in this locality, we have_been informed that Isaac B. Decker, in Eden twp., Lagrange Co., recently lost eight head of cattle; Mr. Phillips in the same township, six head: and Mr. Staver, in Clinton twp., Elkhart Co, eight head of yearlings. Other parties ﬁthe same localities lost from one to four head, all apparently in good condition. The only symptom noticeable before death ensued was that of bloating. : e+ Hi IppiNas was in town on Saturday right, closeted for several hours with Chapman, Wood and Lockhart. The consultation was evidently for p-litical purposes, and important .plans for the impending contest ‘were doubtless agreed upon. Skillen made a desperate effort to gain Idding’s ear, but without success. It may safely be assumed that the Hostetter and Skillen clique will find it an *“ up-hill business” to gain a recognition of their “claims ” in the nominating conventior.

“* THE senior member of the well known firm, Straus & Meagher, returned from the East on Saturday morning, having completed his ex ensive. spring purchases of dry goods, clothing, etc. We have heard several ladies remark that Herman made the best selection of dress goods ever brought to this place. The clerks in that establishment are kept busy in supplying the demand for these elegant goods.

NEWSPAPER SPONGERS, —An exchange well says, there are many persons who either take no paper at all.or else take one from another town, and when they wish to see what is transpiring, they borrow the local paper from some citizen more liberal than themse¢lves. Many men of thiskind are in business, arid frequently grumble because people do not patronize home industry ‘when they' practice the very same thing of which they complain.

A XEw style of collars, called the ‘Cravat Collar,’ and mapufactured by the Reversible Collar Co., Boston, has.just been received by W. A. Jackson, at the Halt, Cap & Fur store. These collars are linen cove’ ed, of beautiful finish, made from the best material, with extra space for handkerchief or cravat, and is without doubt the easiest fitting collar. ever made.— Pricc onty 40 cents per box. Call and getone.

Tug last monthly report of the Department of Agriculture indicates an increase of horses, cattle and sheep, and a decrease of hogs in most of the States.— In prices, cattle are generally lower than they were last year, and horses and mules —particularly in the Southern States—higher. Sheep are generally increasing slightly in prices. e

‘WALK in—good morning. sir, walk in,’ are the pleasant words that greet our ears at J. Decker's. Yes, walk .in and examine the goods and prices and we know you will say “these things are marvelous in our eyes;” then you will make » purchase. ;
