—A farmer should never go' to town without carrying something to sell—hutter, eggs, potatoes, poultry, or even aload of wood. By so doing his income is quite sure to exceed his outgoes. There is no more miserable and. poverty stricken way than to keep Sending to stores and shops, and having things charged, with the expectation of paying for them when special crops come off, for these Ccrops seldom or mever turn out as well as was expected. ! .

' —Dr. Gants and Wm. D. Hays recently purchased of Wilson Knappenberger a tract of 7614 acres of land in close proximity to town, for the sum of $3,200.

Of the 7615 acres there are about 30 acres of timbered land, all of which will be cleared during the coming winter.— Messrs. Gants & Hays intend to make a nice piece of ground of their purchase. Ll o

- —The following foretells the doom of the man who refusesto “fork over” for the benefit derived from printer’s ink: “The man who cheats the printer out of a single cent, will never reach the heavenly land where old Elijah went. He will not gain admittance there, by devils he’ll be driven, and made toloaf his time away ‘outside the walls of heaven. Without a man to greet him, without a pleasant grin, the happiness that he will reap will be almighty thin. el have to eat the thistle of sorrow and regret, he’ll ha ve to buck around right smart with cussedness, you bet!” .

—Those who affect to believe that there is little use in advertising (shys Rowell’s Newspaper Reporter) urge’ as_an objection that the advertisements are not read. They can easily be convinced of their error in this respect by making inquiry. Letthem insert an advertisement offering to purchase some article that is tolerably plenty in the market, and they will be flooded with offers to sell before the ink of the advertisement is dry. An enterprising weekly that has a circulation of one, two or three thousand copies is in the position to do the village merchant great good.— In its sphere, the weekly is of quite as much service to the advertiser as is the daily, and oftentimes enjoys the privilege of being the exclusive family visitor, a privilege the daily seldom ever has, ;

i OUR LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE. KENDALLVILLE. The Methodist church is progressing toward completion rather slowly, all l for the want of more ready funds. It would have been much better, in my -opinion, to have given the job out to | the lowest bidder. . ' - Eli Westoni'made eleven thousand dollars in eleven weeks, in New ¥ ork, by curing stammering. - - Judge Osborn passed through this place, last Monday, on his way from Lagrange. The people of Elkhart and Lagrange counties should elect him | to the position he now holds, regardless of party. I notice that a few of the “faithful” of the republican party'" have met and made a party nomination, relying solely upon their large majority in those counties for his election. Now, if the people of those two counties want a non-partisan Judge, let them move regardless of! party and elect Judge Osborn. : i Cornelius Vanderbilt,. jr., a son of Commodore Vanderbilt, has been stopping at this place during a portion of this and last week. He is the gentleman to whom Horace Greeley loaned $40,000, and I am happy to kndw that the daughters have received every cent of it. -Ie stépped here to see Eli Weston, who acconipanied him to Chicago. They go there to look into a project they have of building an elevated railroad around that city. This Mr. Vanderbilt receives from his father one thousand dollars per: month for his expenses. He is very proud of his father’s success. - JThe camp meeting held near this place last week was well attended. ~ The doctors have had a big fight ‘over Jack Weatherford in order to determine who - should administer physic to him.

CROMWELI. : © The grading on the B, P. & Chicago Railroad is drawing rapidly toward completion. Much praise is due Mr. Kingery for his energy in battling against mud and quicksand in the deep cut on Kreager’s Hill, which, when done, will be about twenty-three feet deep. Omne of the contractors near this place has skedaddled and left some of the boys minus from twenty to fifty dollars. They feel sore over the matter, and swear vengeance if he ‘does not make it all right with them. Soda water goes off like hot cakes here in the new drug store—a very good beyerage these hot days. v There is a good deal of sickness here now, judging from the way the doctors are riding. The principal diseases are cholera-morbus and flux. : Mr. Terry, . father-in-law of Wm. Lecourt, was interred yesterday in the eemetery near Moses Byer’s. He had passed his three score years and ten. The Ligonier Academy of Music is highly spoken of all over the country as being a success, having in charge over one hundred pnpils. . Persons desiring a musical education will do well to patronize this institution. There are quite a number of new buildings going up here this fall, some of them brick. ' Cholera medicine by the wagon load in Cromavell, this morning, in the shape of watermelons and muskmelons. People ought to be careful what they eat during the sickly season. ~ (August 26.) ~ DALE. ARG _ - = NOBLESVILLE. Last Thursd.y evening-a small section of our country was visited by a tremendous fall of hail, which completely demolished the corn fodder, apd fears are entertained that the ear is also badly injured. Our country is not a tobacco raising country, had it been, the crop would have been totally ruined. - Hail fell as large as guinea eggs, coming thick and fast for about eight minutes,” and a part of it laying -on the ground until the next morning. Old settlers tell me they have not seen such a fall of hail for a number of ‘years. There was no wind during the fallofhall. - ¢ e

" James Mullen, while mowing one day last week, came across a bumblebee’s nest which he set on fire. A few hours after he. commenced hauling and stacking his hay. At noon he unhitched his team, leaving a load of hay standing on the wagon, and while he was gone the fire broke out:and entirely consumed wagon, load of hay, stack and all. Mr. Mullen was greatly surprised at this unexpected result, as he had several times examined the nest and thought the fire had been entirely extinguished. / ! Farmers are all busy preparing for wheat sowing. . RvMBo.

. —An eastern exchange offers this seasonable advice: “Look not upon the cucumber when it is wilted, nor green apples, nor other unwholesome truck, for though pleasant to the eye and agreeable to the taste, at last it biteth like the stomach-ache, and stingeth like the cholera-morbus.” Knows how it is, &ec. o

‘Sad Accident—A Five-Year-Old Boy Shot and Killed by an Older : Brother. - ‘ - On Saturday last the citizens of that part of town lying north of the . Elkhart river were thrown into great excitement by the report that a litfle five: year-old son of Mr. Wm. Clawson had been shot and would probably ,die. The particulars of the sad affair are as follows: -On Tuesday Mr, Clawson sent his eldest son with a loaded g$ to the corn field to scare a{way alﬁ shoot blackbirds, but not seeing any birds, he returned to the house, neglecting to fire off the gun, as directed, and placed it in the wood-house. On Saturday morning the younger portion of the family were playing around the house, and among the plays was that of butchering—the smaller children representing the animals to be slaughtered, while the older ones played the part of butchers, Things went along smoothly enough until Frank, aged about eight years, picked up the loaded gun and, pointing it at Finley, aged five, said: “Now, .I am going to kill my hog; Finney, I am going to §hoost you,” and discharged the same, the contents lodging in the back of the lad, who instantly fell upon his face. The other children ran out of the house screaming, and the attention of the neighbors being attracted, they at once proceeded to the house and found the boy lying on his, face, apparently dead. A physician was sent for, and the child was picked up and laid upon. the bed. After some time he revived sufficiently to tell how the accident happened. The poor boy lingered until about 11 o’clock that night, when he. expired. The parents have the sympathy of the entire community in . this their deep affliction. . .

. Pror. W. A. OGDEN, author of “The Silver Song,” has tested G.-A. Ainsworth’s Musical Charts in a recent convention. He writes: “They are very ingenious, and plain enough for any one to understand, who can read.

CUCUMBERS.—An exchange says: When a cucumber: is taken from. the vine let it be cut with a knife, leaying about an eighth of an inch of the cucuinber on the st;'em/; then slit the stem from the end to the vine, leaving a small portion of the cucumber to each division, and on each sepa;rate slit will, be a new cucumber as large as the first. {

The only scientific, rational and suecessful mode of treating Catarrh consists in applying Dr. Sage’s-Catarrh Remedy with Dr. R. V.
