READ the-article headed “ The Bolters’ Convention,” on the fourth pege of today’s paper. . { C e W “ Tue FourTn ” was appropriately celebrated at Goshen, Eikhart, Albion, Ken‘dallville, Rome City, Diamond Lake, and pther localities’'in this and adjoining counties. No reports of serious disturbances have reached us. - ’ g Miss MAxDA LEVERING will open a select school for juveniles, at Albion, commencing on the first Monday in Septem ber. -Of her competency as a teacher it is scarcely necessary tc speak, her reputation being well established in that particular.

Many people are constantly visiting the Grocery store of Wm. Crow and making their own hearts glad with the purchases they make. You will beastonished when you learn the prices of his goods. He surely sells goods very cheap, and then they are of such good quality. - { - 5 et e - THE democratic papersthroughout the State are taking a lively interest in the. éoﬁgressional canvaes ot the Tenth District. The Franklin Herald, Plymouth Democrat and South Bend Union strongly combat the proposition to accept General Hascall as the candidate of the Democrs<y, claiming that such a course would be suicidal abd demoralizing in its tendency. s el e -J. F. RADCLIFFE aiinounces his retirewent from the publication of the Water--100 A#r Line, of 'which he was the founder. Rad. had many difficulties to con tepd with, but by close attention to business and judicions management, he succeeded in placing the Air Line upon a ~sound basis. ' He is a racy writer and an excellent printer. He has our best wishes for his future prosperity and welfare. . e o Tae Steuben Republican, which was rather favorable to Billy Williams® renomination, has apparently grown somewhat luke-warm in its enthusiasm for the little thimble-rigger, since the 16th day of June. Not a word of exultation—not even an intimation of approval is manifested by the editor over the result of the Goshen convention, and the banner upon which is inscribed the name of Billy Wil‘liams is carefully hid from public view. Is the star that arnse with such apparent brilliancy on the 16tb ult. already on the wane? i e :

‘DIssENSIONS EVERYWHERE.—F'rom almost every section of the State come reports of troubles in the Radical camp. “In the Eleventh District the Radicals renominated Jasper Packard for Congress followed by the withdrawal of several counties from the convention. The Republican Senatorial Convention of St. Joseph and Marshall counties broke up in a row, the delegates from the latter county seceding, and denouncing the whole transaction. A like disturbance occurred in th e Senatorisl District composed of the counties of Jay, Blackford and Grant. At this rate, it witl not take long to use up the republican party. - @o in, boys!

.- Cromwell Items, DEAR BANNER:—It is not otir design i penning these items to indulge in any slander, and we are extremely sorry that we should be charged with such intent against our “honest neighbors.” But a downright outrage upon society we feel it to be our duty to expose, by whomsoever or in whatever shape or form we may find it to exist, and no good or true man or woman will take umbrage at this.— Therefore, in answer to a communication we find in your columns of last weck, we bave only to reiterate what we said be fore. Tt is no wish on our part to be personal, nor- do we think that the parties concerned would desire us to be.

In regard to the pic-nic held near }«Cmmwell' on the 18th of June, we will say: first, that lager beer and whisky were 80ld in the same duilding in which the young folks were dancing and upon the same floor, and so close to the ladies ‘that persons, drinking at the bar, were crowded upon by them while dancing for want of room; second, some of the men engaged in the festivities were drink. Our friend, wiio says he saw none such, may be like Uncle Joe., who says “a man is not drunk so long as he can sit up ‘inthe centre of the street and make motions for the wagons to turn out.” But the drunken men we speak of were so limber that they were compelled to back up against the barn to stiffen their knees, and in attempting to do honors to the ladies they spilled the lemonade over their laps; third, there was swearing and inde‘cent language used, and little boys and girls heard it ; fourth, there was quarreling, and inasmuch as that “highly offended individual,” upon his return home, swore that if said. proprietor ever entered his house again he would kick him out, is sufficient evidence of its being a serious one. To conclude the matter e have no hesitancy in saying, as we said - before, that our children were made the dupes of roffianism and intemperance. It may have been of a Aigh order and engaged in by “honest ncighbors,i’ but it is none the less the same We don’t” think the public will be benefitted by any controversy growing out of this affair, even though the proprietor should succeed in getting some one to write up his case, and he tote the communications from place to place and read them to an admiring (?) audience. Thomas Green has sold out his grocery to Mr. Abram: Mayfield, who has_ taken possession, and is now ready ‘to receive cash or country produce in exchange for groceries .at fair prices. Try an advertisement in the BANNER, Uncle Abe, it will be equal to twenty fold that amount of stock invested. ) vl

Harvest is on hand, and farmers are quite jubilant over good crops: the weath er is quite favorable. * _ % Raspberry pickers are roaming the woods, clearings, and fence-corners, gathering lots of that delicious fruit. Cromwell is to be immortalized by the invention of a real, downright, genuine “shoo fly;” it consists of'a machine attached to the headboard of a bedstead, run by a kind of clock-work, over the pillows, to frighten off the flies and mosquitoes, and produce a current of air for the benefit of the sleeper in warm weather. Mothers can wind up the machie and lie their babes away to sleep without al most, suffocating them, to keep off the flies.

HARD oN PosTMASTERS.—An Indiana man recently wrote a letter to a friend in town. He addressed the letter to “ Columbus, Indiana,” the Indiana being made very distinct, written out in full and underlined. Then in the lower left-hand corner he wrote, *“ Bartholomew county,” and across the upper right-hand corner he wrote: *“*The reason I put Bartholomew county on this is, I don’t want it to go to Columbia, South Carolina, or any -o*her Columbus, but Columbus, Bartholomew county, Indiana.” He mailed the ‘letter, and the Postmaster of his town sent it to —Columbus, Ohio.— Waterloo Press.

- Such carelessness is not confined to the postmasters alone. Route agentsappear to take special delight in mis-sending letters and papers. During the past few weeks this practice has been carried on to such an extent that many of our most valuable exchanges have either been entirely lost, or kept on the road for such a length of time as to be of very little interest to us

Fuson 5. PERKINS. — On Thursday evening Perkins, it was thought had capped the climax, for daring and nerve, He climbed up and sat upon the very top of the Court House spire. :Our citizens thought that nothing more could be done by any man in Goshen; but.in this they were mistaken, for, on Friday noon, Mr. Jesse Fuson climbed up again and stood with his feet upon the small top of the spirz! Now the only chanc% for Perkins to beat this is to stand upon his heud.— That would beat it. . The distance is near two hindred - feet, and it is certainly an evidence of mighty good nerve to go thro’ what these men did. Bickel and Stutsman will please stand aside. — Goshen Democrat. :

" We are surprised that the authorities of our neighboring city do not peremptorily order the discontinuance of this daring recklessness. We can see nothing com‘mendable in thus exposing Luman life to peril. s

Vol., received a very severe wound from a minnie ball, at Green River, Ky., which penetrated the left and upper portion of the Ossa Innominata; and wigs not removed until the 2nd of June, 1870.

-How to Render Yourself Agreeable. _ An editor is always at leisure, couse- " quently ke is ready to receive visitors at ‘all hours. Any man who hasw’t anything elsé to do can run in for an-hour or two, ‘talk of the weather, the crops, his wife and children. It don't make any difference what the editor is doing. Go for him. Give him your idea of what the party policy should be, and tell him the party will go to the devil if he don’t do a 8 you advise. If he happens to be reading proof, don’t shut your mouth, but keep gabbing, and when it is corrected, ask him to let you see it. DBe sure and disagree with him about the: spelling of a word. If he is writing, get hold, if you can, of what he has written, and show him the false position he has assumed in the opening of the. article. If you have anything you wish to get in the local column, continues the Fort Wayne Gazstte, get it mixed up in giving it to the “local,” and when it comes out in the next issue word for word as you gave it, call him an ass, with a warm adjective before it. When you are through with the editor, drop into the composing room. If the foreman is busy, tell him stories.— Run your hand carelesely over the matrer on the stone, and if you can suéceed in knocking it into pie, you have achieved something wonderful, it you don't get kicked out of doors.. Trot around to all the cases, and ask the compositors what they are on. -If you can sing, or go thro’ a double shuffle, don't let the opportunity slip! go in heavy. Finally wander away, and if curses both loud and deep don’t follow you, then we are mistaken as to the nature-of editors and printers,

M. W. Harrrs, Perry, Georgia, writes he has used SWEET QUININE extensively, both with adults and children, and finds it .in every sense as good an antiperiodic as the sulphate Quinina. Dr.-L. W.

Its virtue is now conceded. 1t is equally sure in break‘ing -the chills and fever, and far more easily retained on an irritable stomach ‘than the Bitter Quinine.” Sold by Moore ‘& Tharp. o :
