OUR LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE. " KENDALLVILLE. - The result of the Ohio election is very satisfactory to all Democrats in this vicinity, and well informed Republicans do not regret the return of Senator Thurman to the United States Senate, as they look upon him as being one of the ablest, if not the most talented member of that body. It brings the Senator into great prominence and will make him a formidable candidate for the Presidency in 1876. ;

i ‘C—Ajrlarge'andbvery pleasant party | was held at the residence of James Colgrove; Esq., last Friday evening. The invitations were extended in real democratic style, that is, almost everybody was invited, and judging by the number in attendance, we should think that all accepted, for the spacipus mansion seemed alive with guests, even to the cellar. Invitations had been sent to some of the adjoining towns, and among the guests were Mr. and Mrs. I. E. Knisely, of Ligonier, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. McClellan, of Waterloo, and others. Mrs. Ruggles entertained the company with some ;very excellent reading, which was ‘highly appreciated. Jno. Weston and 'Hiram Iddings then gave some practical illustrations of early day dancing —when they used to meet in days of yore, and “cut the pigeon wing” on the old-fashioned puncheon floor.— Some of the company had bee‘n‘ read- ; ing Ilenry Ward Beecher on' card playing and concluded to try it. The } hogt said he turned his back upon the ~whole thing, but wanted to know what were “trumps!” The internal ‘ arrangement of Mr. Colegrove’s house was}the admiration of every one. The rooms are lighted with gas, which is manufactu®ed on the premises. llis library is large and contains many excellent works. All went home, we guess, delighted with the evening’s entertainment. ' .

~ Cyrus W. Isbell, aged 47, died last Sunday morning. Ile was an old citizen and for many years constable in this - township. His funeral was largely attended. : Carr Green will soon move to near Toledo. ' There was a large crowd of people in town on the 16th to witness Howes show. The same games were played upon the streets as on the Saturday previous.

The Presbyterians, not to be behind their neighbors, have put up a very nice ornament on their church steeple, adding much to the appearance of that edifice. : “Pole-cat” Myers! love for the soldier is the same as the wolf’s for the lamb. o “Pole-cat” Myers, having daubed up almost everything else in this city, is now turning his attention to our churches. His thrust in that direction in his paper of last week was not very complimentary to our 111i1'i§sters, or to those who build and aid in keeping up these institutions. His remarks were meant to injure our Methodist friends, who were making a strong effort to enclose : their building (and which they have already done) in or--der to preserve it from the elements. But, thank fortune, he is without any influence in this community, ‘and instead of receiving any indorsements it only excited indignation. * ~ A short; notice’ of the installation meeting at the Baptist church was sent up to the Standard office last week for publication, but “Pole-cat’’ did n’t find room for it. Q I have noticed that Reub Willaims, -of the Warsaw Indianian, is the only ‘editor who pats “Dr. (Pole-cat) Myers” on the back, and the game 0f “I tickle you and you tickle me” has heen going on between them for some time. The Methodists *will have a New England Supper at Mitchell’s hall on Friday evening. All are invited. October 21. ; Jok.

CROMWELL. : Many things ‘transpired during the past week that might be worthy of note,-some of which, however, we decline making mention of. We were not a little diverted at some of the railroad hands, the! other day, at the “freaks of a frantic - nature” that were displayed by ome, at least, who, by the way, is a boss on the road. After thoroughly thinking the matter over of taking as his remuneration 25 cents on thedollar, he became exceedingly cross-grained, and came to the conclusion that he could go to work and handle five or six of them, and took his coat off for that purpose, but fortunately no one took up with the proposition and consequently there was nobody hurt. . ~ Rev. W.I. Keller is preaching his first round on the Salem Charge. He is a young man of excellent talent, but whether or not he will be acceptable I am unable to say. I am not certain as to whether “Non-libet’s” sunny side can beat this place for responsibilities or not. A week or two 4go a young gentleman came to the residence of our esteemed friend and merchant, W. C. V., and ranges in size with others of that age and sex. Our young friend Geo. Heck took in a young lady to board with him in his little family. We have not seen George, but.feel certain that he will be proud of her c\’ompany.

Corn husking and krallt-makfng i3l the order of business now in this 10-‘ cality. ' b ey There may not be more than one Pole-cat in this county, but we have meaner things in this place that would like to be called men. Two or three low, degraded, mean, dirty scalawags—pucilanimous pukes claiming to be of American extraction, who at the election last Tuesday cast ballots such asa Hottentot would be ashamed of, for a certain filthy office, unfit to bename in print. As soon as can be ascertained who the individuals are, active steps will be taken to bring the chaps to justice. These ballots are retained by one of the Board so that the hand-writing may be identified, (0ct.20) DALz, T z

_ NOBLESVILLE. - g An amusing incident occurred at the Noblesville store one day last week. A young man noticed in the show case an assortment of toilet soap done up in lemon shape, and supposing the same to be genuine lemons, he inquired: “How do you sell these lemons?” “Ten cents,” wasthe quick response. “Wouldn’t you give me three | for a quarter ?” continued the custom‘er. 'The merchant manifested his as‘sent by handing out the articles called for, when the patron eagerly placed one of the deceptive lemons between his teeth. The sequel may be imagined. Boys, when you want to buy lemons, be kure you don’t get fancy soap. While on a visit to Elkhart count-y," recently, I learned that wheat averaged about 18 bushels per acre in Benton township—the oldest citizen of which, by the way, is Hon. Matthew Rippey. The clover seed crop is almost a total failure. -It averages only about two bushels to the acre in this viciniAn attempt was nizu_le to burglarize the store of William Geiger one night last week, but failed. : : Boys, let me advise you to be more caréful in riding at night. If you heed this adviee, it willlessen aceidents and save law-suits. - Zidgler Bro’s will this week move their saw-mill upan a new location.

MILFORD, KOSIUSKO COUNTY. - FRrieNp STOLL:— This township (Van Buren) gave Hon. Elisha Van Long a majority of 92 votes, the whole vote polled being only about 200. There are several cases of Typhoid Fever in and around Milford. : I have to record the sad event of the death of our much esteemed townsman, David Hossler, a kind father, an esteemed citizen, and a worthy Jnember of the M. E. Church. - Ife was sick only a few days with typhoid fever. . The funeral took place on Monday, attended by a large concourse of friends and relatives. A young man (name not ‘Jearned) coming | from Lagrange to Warsaw and/being under the influence of liquor, fell from the train and was run 'over, the wheels passing over his leg above the knee. It was found necessary to amputate his leg six ‘or eight inches above the knee. inother instance of the baneful effects of liguor. I learn the young man’s home is at South Whitley. It is hoped he will recover. U. B. ErT.

' Visit to the Waterloo Fair. ; - To the Editor of the National Banner: , ° We left Ligonier on the morning of the 10th inst. bound for Waterloo, arriving at the Fair gronnds at half past 8 o’clock, A.x. We first took a view of the half-mile track, which is one of’ ‘the best in Northern Indiana. We ‘then struck out for Fldral Hall, which we found pretty well filled with such articles as are usually, seen in these halls, although the articles on exhibition were not astastefully arranged as they were in our hall at Ligonier. From here we passed on to the vegetable hall, where we found bread, butter, fruit and cabbage in abundance. Everything was in good order, but our Noble county ladies: know how to make a better article of butter than any we saw at the Waterloo Fair. We also noticed a host of bug gies, carriages and farm wagons from Lagrange county, and reapers, mow‘l ers, plows, in fact all kinds of farm implements. From this point we proceeded to inspect the live stock. A number of horses were on exhibition that did not compare with those of Noble county for general . purposes. Cattle were well represented and made a very good show. Of sheep and hogs, the display was nothing extra. ~We now took dinner with mine host, Ben Barnhart, of Ligonier, who did a heavy business in the eating line. , At two o’clock the trotting for the $2OO purse was announced. Four horses started, Gen. Sherman, a grey gelding owned by A. C. Fisk, of Coldwater, Mich., winning three straight heats. Time: 2:31, 2:36 and 2:39.— Next came the running, for the $lOO purse, half-mile dash, best three in five. Woodchuck, entered by Frank Prough, took the first premium. Time: 5614, 5634 and 57 seconds. Fearnaught, entered by L. Atwater, of ‘Lagrange, took the second premium, and Wild Indian, entered by John Prough, the third. After:the races, being tired and foot-sore, wé left the grounds and returned to Ligonier. REX. et ———— e —

STABBING AFFRAY AT AUBURN.— On Wednesday evening of last week two prominent business men of Audurn, DeKalb county, Frank Streby and W. W. Humes, had an altercations Streby accusing Humes of coaxing his employes away from him. After some high words Streby and his bro-ther-in-law, Ernest Mansdorfer, were ordered to leavée Humes’ premises, ‘which they refused to do, Mansdorfer striking Humes, who retaliated, and succeeded /in knocking his assailant down. Mansdorfer then drew a knife and stabbed ITumes twice, once in the right side of the neck, close to the jugular vein, and once in the left breast. Humes is said to be in an extremely critical condition, and but slight hopes for his recovery are entertained. Both Streby and Mansdorfer were arrested, the former being released on two thousand dollars’ bail. The latter was sent to jail to await the result of Humes’ injuries. The affray caused considerable excitement, all the parties being prominent and well-known citizens. : o d i .—_l—w*oo———————— i : William Groh, | William Groh, William Groh, William Groh, William Groh, William Groh.
