_ Hendallville Correspondenee. : KeNpALLVILLE, IND,, Sept. 30, - EpiTors BANNER:—I, wish| to refer again to some of our candidates who are now before the people of this county asking for their support. Between| Lash and Goodspeed, justice demands that you elect the former. Mr. Goodspeed is being push|edon by a set of political hacks, He knows very well (and has so |expressed himself to friends) that_he is not doing right by attempting to crowd otit of office ‘acrippled fellow-soldier. This Goodspeed bas held the office of Postmaster, of Ligonicr, for some ten years and m$ man ever ‘attempted to get him out, e*ccpt Jim ‘McConnell, who during Andy Johnson's ‘term, tried-to put in his son Bfill. who is now being manipulated by Capt. Iddings in bis pension agency at Ft. Wayne—fit accomplices i this nefarious business!— but I know that the people of Noble counIty will not endorse them. b Between Hough and Browand, I think ‘the people of tbis county areTw,ilfling to continue for another term the present ’ worthy and efficient sheriff. I(r would be ‘quite a pecuniary loss to him if he should not be re clected, as thc”prcsedt term has ‘not -been very profitable to hint. Then he has been a faithful officer,al wayh attending }_to the duties of his office with gromptness }i‘and fidelity. The law limits the sheriff ‘to four years of office in succeésion, and- I ‘think the people will accord to Mr. Hosgh all that the law will aliow. Of Mr. Browand I have not much to say. Fbe peoplc; I presume will become well pequainted with the merits and demerits of each can- ‘ didate and vote accordingly. S | Scott, and Baughman are the candidates for the office of Recorder| Mr. Scott has been elected Trustee ot Swan township twice,—the last time without opposition. He served as a soldier in the a!r‘my, and is 8 gentleman of undoubted honor. Let the. people take into consi;Teration the merits and demerits of these two candidates, and we are willing to J.,isk the re- | .sult. | ‘

[ | Stanley and Prickett— the former rep‘fesente virtue, honesty and purity; the | l:iutter represents Morton. Every man who votes for Prickett, votes directly to send 0. P. Morton back to the Senate, as he was nominated for that purpoée, and that only, at the request of said Morton. | Ifany of your readers should ever mect Dr. Beecher, of Lagrange, let tltlem request him to “‘get off” Prickett as \e appeared jdét atter readieg Horace Gre%ey’.s speech at Pittsburgh. Notice clocely his eyes, his mouth, his swelling up, his “the d—d old fool " &e., and the lauglf will repay you for the trouble. ; . | Col. Williams' appointments at Avilla,| Lisbon and Rome City were |filled by 'T. H. Stewart. Full houses greeted him, and ij}t was clearly demonstrated at Lisbon that it does not need a- “free dancfz and a free supper,” to gct out a large audience at ‘that place. } ' "Mr. Kestler, of Orange tol,vnship, the ‘wood contractor on the Air Line railroad, was in town on Saturday la}t. He feels very confident of the success of our county ticket. He will soon move hig whole force :of hands west of Brimfield,,vrherc timber is more plentiful. = Mr, Kestler is a genial, whole-souled gentleman. ’ : | | Our Grant friends have poor success in their meetings here of late.

. The Fair. : . The County Fair, held at this place,last week, proved s complete success. The attendance during the latter part was quite large. The number of articles registered for exhibition, especially in the stock department, was considerably ahead ot former years. Not only was the number of entries of stock larger,but the quality, in many_respects, was of much; higher| grade than for several years past. Some very fine specimens of improved grades of cattle were -exhibited by Mr. Kinnison, LlrL;fimmell, and Mr. Koontz. A fine thoroughbred . horse, ‘Young Lexington,” raised by the late R. Aitchison Alexander, of Kentucky, now owned by Dr. James Miller, of Lagrange, was exhibited in the class -of Thoroughbred and drew the first premium. A horse owned by My. Atwater, also of Lagrange, called “Fear Not,” took the second premium. The classes of driving and trot. ting horses were very respectably represented by several owned by Dr. C. Palmiter and S. B. Helmer, of this town; Dr. C. A. Cummings, of Leesburg ; Mr. Hunter and son, of Orland, and W. J. Wals: worth, of St. Johns, Michigan. In the class of Farm Productions, Mr. John Prough took the prize for the best wheat, and Mr. G. K. Poyser, for the best corn. i Lo :

Of the Ladies’ Department, the classes of Fancy Articles, ¥ine Arts, &c., were very elegantly represented ; as in some of the other departments of the exhibition, what was lacking in quantity was made up in quality. T ; The receipts from the sale of tickets of membership and from licences, - almost reach the sum of eleven hundred dollars; being sufficient to pay all premiumgs-and expenses, with something over. As, of course, all exhibitors were not entirely satisfied with the awards of many of the committees. Of their obections in this matter, we cannot say further than, that it may be (and in fact is to be expected) that the committees in some cases have made mistakes. When an erroneous award is made, we must likewise expect the party aggrieved to realize it to the full extent. The Directors of the society whose duty it 13 to make the selection of the committees, should not only not neglect to attend to the matter at all, but should j exercise great care and judgment in mak- | ing this selection. This year quite a ' number of the directors were not present at-the time appointed to select the com-l mittees when the duty devolved upoh a! small number, which occasioned, as ai matter of course, embarrassment for want of time and assistance. It is to be hoped that in the future this matter will not again be neglected. . e ‘ The list of premiums’drawn, and other particulars, will be published next week.!

HORACE GREELEY AT HOME, Horace Greeley returned to his home in New York, on Monday evening. An immense multitude had assembled at the de pot who greeted him with round afte round of cheers as the train entered th building. ‘ . At eight o'cloek an informal reception was given to Mr. Greeley at the Lincoln Club Rooms. Several hundred membe of the Club and members of the Press ware present, and outside thousands h gathered. Mr. Greeley , arrived soon afte eight o'clock. His speech to the populace was as follows : j

“My Ferrow Citizens :—I have only a few words to say to you this evening. I am weary from my trip into the great West. Whatever good may result from that wvisit will redound to the credit of your excellently organized National Committée. I was pressed to go and see th people of the great Central and Western States, and refate the false charges that bad been made against the reform move ment. There was nothing that forbid m doing this; for, gentlemen, our purpo! are open. We bhave nothing to conceal [cheers] anid nothing to fear. The sunlight will never put our cause to shame. [Cheers] I trust that I have made the objects of the liberal movement clear. That has been the object.of my endeavors during the twelve days. I may have failed in my endeavors, but upon it let the people return their verdict. Having defined my position, having left no grounds for mis representation as to what I profess, I hav no more political speeches to make be | tween this and the close of the campaign But the good work of reform will go on. [Cheers.] 1t is not the work of one man, or a limited number of men. It is the work of a whole, mighty people.: [Applause.] During my twelve daysabsence I have received assurance that the great Middle| and Western States are with us. We will carry Pennsylvania, if a fair election can be bad ; and it is fair to presume, in .the light of facts, that the day of Pennsylvania ring frauds has gone by. [Cheers.] Ohio will not be heard; from.in vain [immense cheering ;] and as for Indiana; she can neither be bought or defrauded out of honest convictions. [Deafening applause.] My friends, again I beg you to relieve me from making a speech, as I am weary and desire quiet.” = B

OBITUARY, : CovrumsiA Crry, IND., Sept. 29. DEAR READERS :—Sincel left Ligonier, less than & fortnight ago, my heart has been racked with the keenest anguish: She, who more than seven years ago I led to the altar a smiling, beautiful bride, I followed last Thursday to the lonely tomb. What has always been the dread of my life, I am now realizing most sadly. - Oh! who but those who have experienced the same inexpressible loss can tell the bitter sorrow which now fills my heart? The whole world' seems a blank to me now. All that T had hoped for in this world seems to have vanished by this terrible stroke of ‘Providence. Nothing but sadness seems to be my lot, and all human lsympathy and condolence sounds only like mockery. Alas! how are we called to drink ot thel bitt/‘er’ cup of sorrow to its very dregs. How are our pathways strewn with- thorns, and our brightest anticipations dissipated in a moment ! For nearly eighit years my darling wife, though always much afflicted, had been the main comfort of my life; but in the prime of life, and when we hoped to travel together many years its pathway, the cruel messen'ger, death, tore her rrom my bosom. She! who had so. faithfully stood by my side through all the adversities of life through which I was called to pass ; she who always welcomed me home from my labor and toil with a'smile of gladness, now sleeps in the cold embrace of the tomb. May God‘ support me in my great affliction and give me grace to so live that when I, too, am summoned from earth, I may go to live with my dear, departed wife, among the angels in heaven. . J. R.
