. From Cold Springs. . Corp Sprixas, Ind., Mar. 13,71, ' ‘Eprrer BANNER : — Having observed communications from all parts of Noble, ILithought perhaps I might throw in my “mite” and itemize Cold Springs — not that Noble can presume to claim any ownership to the town, for it belongs bodily to Whitley. T reside on the county line, consequently I am attracted neither way; yet, as the BANNER finds its way, “by hook or by crook,” into our little “burg,” our sympathies instinctively turn towards the north, and thither will'my’ contributions follow. ) e

Cold Springs isa stirring little place, containing a Baptist church ; and supporting &' school, taught by Mrs. Hattie E. Spencer, a term of which was .regently closed with literary exercises that reflected credit on both teacher and scholars.— There were many visitors present at the closing, and it was made pleasant by well timed and appropriate speeches from the patrons of the school. ; O .Our debating club meets weekly, and ig in a fldarighing condition. All subjects of a progressive and educational nature are discussed by our leading citizens, beneficially to the disputants, if not with the eloquence of statesmen: Some of our ‘strong-minded women occasionally paiticipate in the debate, and, let me add, to no mean advantage. : Forgn This being the season of the year when sap, runs the best, vyve“ are nQW' in the mhidst of sugar making. The trees yield bountifully of the sweet water, and the yield promises to be large. Sap from which eugar is made is not taken from saplings, as many suppose, but from maple trees. - _ : "FRANE?Y

Answers to Correspondents.

- J. P. CaneN.—Eatirely natural.. We aim to treat everybody right, and thus conquer prejudice. Former dif{érences should not be permitted to stand in the way of friendly personal relations. - G. SHERMAN, Mo.—Glad to hear from you, and duly grateful for that remittance. Yes; true merit'is seldom rewarded on such occasions. Cunning devices almost invariably lead to success. Pror. BosworTH.—Could not possibly be in attendance at your exhibition. Sorry.

~ J. W. H,, Towa.- Qur terms are invariably in advance. Can’t make an exception in your favor. - . b

- JABON Prouty.—+Two dollars is al' we charge for one year's subscription. Glad to enroll you among our list of subscribers. . Mgs. M. E. B.—Shall be glad to receive local news as often as you have something to write about. -

Zorner CasE.—Always glad to ex change our paper for a $2 greenback.

TAkE NoticE.—All those.indebted to the u'ndrersigned, either by note or book account, arc hereby notified to call and settle the same by the first day of April, 1871. As my means are limited, and it is impossible in these times to doan extended credit business, I must? ingist upon short settlements, which always make long friends. ~ Persons interested will please take notice, and govern themselves _accord‘i'jggl y, thereby saving cost and trouble, as after that date all accounts will be placed in an officer’s hands for collection. 4648 /{GEO..BRADEN.

NEw Poor Far M.— The Board -of County Commissioners have. finally purchased a new farm for the poor. The tracts selected for that purpose consist ofthe old “Bassett Farm,” 160. acres, situate west of Albion and owned by: Charles Weed ; und a tract of 40 acres of timberf. land adjoining the above, owned by Peter Himies, of Williams county, -Ohio, Mr. Weed takes the present “Poor Farm” in exchange, with $2,000 to boot. The price | agreed upon for Mr. Himes’ tract is $1500."

- From one of our exchanges we learn that on the 28th ultimo the Postmaster General changed the Fort‘Wayne Post Office from a second to a first-class money order office.. The Postmasters at Angola, Auburn,Bluffton, Columbia City,Decatur, Huntington, Kendallville, Lagrange, Monroeville, Orland, Pierceton, Wabash, Warsaw, und‘ Waterloo, quiuna, and Antwerp, Delphos, and Van Wert, Ohio, are to report to that .office. '

' ERRATA.—The name of our Franklin county correspondent,_wbose letter will be found on the first page, is Quinin Volz—not Irwin.—At the close of our comments on the Evansville Courier's reference to ourself, the word “able” should read “ respectable.” These errors are attributa. ble to' the absence of the editor at the time of proof-reading. i :

PERSONAL,—MTr. Pat Meagher, who has for a number of years been behind the counter at J. Decker’s grocery store, will leave to night for New York, to accept a situation in an extensive cotton hoqs’a of that city. = Although we are pleased with Pat’s merited promotion and his prospects of success, it is with regret we extend the parting hand. ) i

J. B. KELLY, ot the * Tremont” at Kendallville, recently had 2;000 Hhotel cards printed at this office — that being, in_all probability, the largest order yet given by any public house in the county. “Jim,” in addition to his inventive genius, is a capital landlord, and amply merits the extensive patronage conferred upon hini by the traveling public. |

Ovur esteemed friend, Mr. Julius P. Cahen, formerly book-kéeper of S. Mier & Co., but'now a merchant in' the city of NewYork,iwrites us as follows: : Frienp SToLL :—Please find enclosed the stamps to renew my subscription to the BANNER. I can’t very well do without the news from my former home.

TaE man who “couldn’t find his match” went to bed in the dark. Not so with Wm. . Groh's customers, for they are always able ttf&carry a “match.”. Reason—they buy their groceries so cheap of Bill that they can afford it. That man had better try Bill and we will assure him never to'meet with that gxisfortune.again.

To BE TestED. — The Indianapolis Journal says the legality of the new fee bill is to be tested by some interested parties, and suit to determine the same has already been brought. - Lo i

A REPRESENTATIVE INSURANCE Co.— The Home Insurance Company, of New York, was organized in 1852 with a cash capital of $500,000. Through ' eighteen years. of fiery ordeal this.company has passed successfully, affording to its fortunate policy holders $13,000,000 paid for losses during that period, and toc-day stands unrivaled in the'insurance world, with a cash capital ot $2,500,000 and assets amounting to over $4,400,000.00. It therefore deserves the special good wishes and patronage of the insuring public.— Rates extremely moderate. L. H.& D. W. Green are agents for this company at Ligonier, Ind. *

" Tug FEE AND SALAnY BinL.—There is a general misapprehension i regard to the new fee and salary bill not taking effect .until the Ist of June. The law is now in full force and effect, the emergency cldvse having been omitted in.its publication. ] At

- PERsoNAL.—Our distinguished friend and contemporary of the press,J. B. Stoll, Esq., of the Ligonier BANNER, called at our sanctum on Saturday last, during our absence from home. We regret vety much thal we were deprived of the pleasure of seeing him and shaking hissturdy hand. He publishes two live papers: The NATIONAL BANNER, and the Laporte ARrcgus; both in radical counties, where not a grain falls into his sack . from the public crib; and yet, by his energy, ability and untiring industry, he has made both successful: They are among the finest Appedring and most ably conducted papers in the State.— Peru Sentinel, March 9. g :

- REv. MinroNn B. Hopxins, the newly elected State Superintendent. of Public Instruction, will enter upon the discharge of his officigl duties on Wednesday of this week. He isagentleman emineritly qualified for the position, and the public may rest assured that under his administration the educational interests of the State will undergo much improvement, and that the errors the present incumbent- has committed will not be renewed.—lndianapolis Sentinel. t ; :

- WALTHAM WATCHES.

The extensive use of these watches forlthc last fifteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers and Expressmen,the most exacting of watch-wear-ers, has thoronghly demonstrated the strength, steadinesg, durability and accuracy of the Waltham ‘Watch. To satisfy that class in all-these respects, is {0 decide ' the question as to the real value of these time-keepers. . : A More :than 500,000 of these watches ‘are now speaking for themselves in the pockets of the people—a proof and a gunarantee of their superiority over all others, N .

The superior organization and great extent of the Company’s Works at Waltham, enables them to produce watches at a price which renders competition futile, and those who buy any other watch simply pay from 25 to 50 per cent.more for their watches than is necessary.

These time-pieces combine every improvement that a long experience has proved of real practical use. Having had the refusal of nearly every invention in_watch-makii]g originating in' this country or in"Europe,only those were flnalty adopted which gevere testing by the most skillful artesans in our works, and long use on the part of the public, demonstrated to be essential to correct and enduring time-keeping. ’ ' : .

Among the many improyements we would parpatticularize: i : . The invention and use qf a centre-pinion of: gleculiar construction, to prevent damage to the trhin by the breakage Jof main-springs, is original with the American Watch Company, who, having had the refusal of all other contrivances, adopted Dodson & Fogg’s patent pinion as being the best and aultless. : - " Hardened and teme?red hair-springs, now universally admitted by Watchmakers to be the best, are used in all -%?des of Waltham Watches, All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps, protecting the movement from dust, and lessening the necessity of the frequent cleaning nccessary in otherWatehes,: : insoras sGI ok

. Our new patent stem-winder, or keyless watch is already a decided snccess, anda %lreat improvement on any stem-winding watch in the American market, and by far the cheapest watch of its quality now offered to the dpublic. T 0 those living in portions of the United States where watchmakers do not abound, watches with the above-mentioned improyements which tend to insure accuracy,cleanliness, duzability and convenicnce, must prove invalmable.® . lanEl Tas = e
