COUNT}Y Nl'*}WS’ AND GOSSIP. i | RoMEcITY, = “Xavier” is nat pleased with our declaration of principles. ITe says he ‘ thought—hmt we showed some symptoms of reform, &e. We wish we could | say the same of him. lle says our { ideas of Horace Greeley and the Dem“ocratic party -are all bosh. We think ' the Doct?x’s memory must be greatly -at fault, or he would not make such an assertion in the face of history on]y" two years old. Two years ago there was no It;emo'cratic party in Indiana. Horace Greeley, a life-long Republican, without a shadow of change, was ‘the standard-bearer of what had been ‘the Democratic party. Thisparty was ~called: the “Liberal and Reform party.” They proclaimed to the world that they ccared not for the past. They looked only at the present a:nd the future; hence, our justification in saying that the Democratic party was dead or defunct. We are fully in' the belief that -the Republican party’is becoming very corrupt, and has outlived its usefulness; hence, our liberality in proposing to forget that which is dead and dropping that which ought to be dead, and poming together, as one people, looking only to the good of the people, and the whole people. We hope now that “Xavier” thoroughly understands us and we reassert our former suggestion, that is: “let the people run the machine awhile on their own hook," and leave parties aside.” If theéDoctor thinks that the old Democratic party is lilt't defunct, why don’t he act. We believe that he is Chairman of the Central Committee; why not proceedf to call a| Demdcratic Convention and make democratic nominations ¥ Aftei"’j this is done, then perhaps the people will actf and the second Tuesday in, (_)ctobérf\\'ill declare the result. The Editor of the BANNER has wisely spoken, that/a “Peoples Conventign.in Noble county is talked of.” We say that it is m(?re‘ than Jll’Ob:lbl‘C,’ yes, it has become| about an absolute necessity, and \\'iljl surely take place. The Doctor can’t see where an increase of currency would do any good. ILet him ask the hundreds of hands in the Ft. Wayne! shops who are now working five holfu's and getting 6214 cents aday, and perhaps they may be able to answer his question. 'We have neither time, piltience, nor inclination to dwell upon this subject; it is too clear and Sclf-evident to admit of argument.— Let thqi people take the matter in hand and the ship will be steered aright, but keep clear of all old political nuisances ~ Capt, i Iddings is said to be very busy lpoking up a candidate for Congress. He spent a few hours here a few days ago. Thé people are @lso !ﬂlih]\'ililg' a little about this matter.— They are looking up the best man to cause Mr. Iddings and his ring to retire to private life. God’s judgments are slow but sure. s

Geof{ge Moore, a young man living inl: this place, got. his foot badly smashed by the falling of .a heavy piece of timber while working at the flouring mF)lls, on Thursday morning last. As nobones were brpken he will probably be able to be about, soon. Acci_dents are still plenty. On Thursday last as Mr. West was coming to town,fin a one-horse wagon, his horse took fright at a railroad train,near the ice hduses of J. C. Geisendorff & Co., and I‘;ain off. Mr. West was thrown out and eonsiderably bruised up. The hbrse,é while yet hitched to the wagon, ran i’fnto the mill-pond, near John Squibls blacksmith shop, and then sank tfo rise no more. He was taken out ins; a few minutes, but life was entirely extinet. i

We;\vere not permitted to attend the Good | Templars’ pic-nic here on the Fourth, but learned from those present that it was a very pleasant and enjoyable affair. 8 :

The Fourth at Rome City commenced in the afternoon of the 3d.— As early as 3 o’clock the'young folks from a distance commenced coming in for the puipose of participating in the dance at the Lake Side ITouse. It being harvest 'time, and the -fields being fully ripe, prevented many from attending, who would otherwise have doneso. The sale of numbers amounted to about 75, and a more orderly and well-behaved erowd has seldom ever met in Rome City or elsewhere. Everything passed off handsomel'y and . satisfactorily. The morning of the Fourth dawned in all its splendor.— Nature seemed to have exerted herself to make the day every way lovely. A few persons left to assist in celebrating at Lagrange and Kendallville, and quite a number went over to assist olr little sister, Wolcottville, and, last of all, a goodly number 'of the more patriotic of Rome and vieinity concluded to stay at home and have an “d]d fashioned” pitch-in on their own hook. A noticeable and praise--Iwortl}ly feature of the arrangement, was a large “Star Spangled Banner” suspended over the street by a strongcord from the lake Side House to the post-office. The day passed lively, merrily and gayly away, and will long. be remembered by many of the citizens of Rome. As for ourself, we, with a number of others, repaired to Wolcottville, where we found the proprietor of " the Philips House and his estimable lady, and everything connected with the establishment, iln primge order‘ for the Bowery dance.-- j Soon after noon the dance commenced in gdod earnest. The crowd gathered slow};d and increased continually up to 10 o’cloek at night, at which period every square inch of space was filled to a perfect jam. Had the dance oc- | curred ‘any other day than Saturday the room would have been entirely teo small f?r the accommodation of the guests.” We venture nothing in saying that Mr. I, W. Philips and his }wifei take more pains and genuine pleasure in trying to make their guests ~comfortable, than most any persons of our acquaintance, and we advise all who have never enjoyed their hospitality to give them a trial, and they. will never regretit. lobson, assisted by the Rome City Band, graced the occasion with his best musie, until ‘the clock sounded 12; when all quiet-

ly retired to their several homes.— Thus, Rome Cily and Wolcottville, “who are always on the most friendly terms, "Felebr'ated and danced continu“ally from Friday p. M., until Saturday ‘night M. We had almost forgotten to mention {that we looked for, and inquired after, the editor of the Wolcott- ‘ vilie Register, but he could nowhere ‘be found. We afterwards learned that a heavy plj.égsurc_@f job work had kept him secluded from sharing in the pleasures of the celebrations. - As early as Monday many farmers in this vicinity were gathering their wheat into their barns. The wheatis of an excellent quality, and more than an average crop. Corn and potatoes never promised better at this season of the yeat. . Adaxia : KENDALIVILLE. - - The Fourth of July was celebrated ‘a half a mile south of this town, in Reed’s grove. A procession was formed quite early in the morning, consisting of the entire fire department, headed by the Kendallville Brass Band, when they marched to the grove The Declaration of Independence was read | by Prof. Bachelder, and some remarks | were made by Mayor Graves, after which the celebration commenced in earnest. It cons;ist(g“of eating and drinking, and while thtre were many ‘ things to admire, and in order, there | was much to condemn. The most ob- ‘ jectionable feature was the setiing of ‘ large quantities of beer to those who | became intoxicated; dand,to add insult to injury,boys and minors were altowed ‘to'drink and becom\e drunk, and I find | no one who respects law and order ‘who doeg not denounce that part of the arrangement. The saloons of the city closed, strictly in nccord‘:‘mce witl_l law, and remained so during the "day: The sélling of beer upon that occasion, and upon those grounds, was in violation of law,and to add to that violation, minors were made drunk, :mdvspectacles witnessed which were degrading and humiliating. This all had its effect, by producing numerous fights and broils, after the crowd came back to the city; and it willheremembered as aday of dx.'lmlwnn@ss,' rather than a day of order and sobriety. 1 hope the grand jury will take cognizance the violations of that day, and especially so far as relates to the selling to minors, and punish the guilty. - - The chairman of the! County Cen+ tral Committee has no xeply to make to the communication signed “Democrat,” in the Albion #ra, except this: It would have been much easier for “Democrat,” alias Sam. Alvord,to haye addressed him in regard to the holding of a convention for the appointment of deleghtes to the State convention, as all were invited to do, than to have attempted to throw fire brands for the purpose of injuring men and party. . Prof. Theopholis Parvin addressed a | very small audience at Mitchell's lall, on Thursday evening, July 2d,in the interest of the North-Eastern Indiana Medical Association. The lecture, as a medical production, was like the audience, “thin,” and I do not think it reflects “heavy honors” upon tftlé M. D. who was so struck with the gentleman’s ability, upon a former occasion, as to invite him to lectute before that association in this place. - ' Capt. Iddings is “trying to get the pension oflice mo{"e,d to Kendallville. The Standard’s quotation'from the Indianapolis Sentinel, which it pronounces “good,” is particularly applicable to the delegation that went from this county. Tlie Sentinel said: “There | are two conventions being held in this city at this time, the/ one a butter and egg, the other a bread and butter con‘celjn ;7 and, to show the applicability of/the remark,to the Noble county delegation, which attended the latter, let me analyzé them to a® certain extent. I must beginj of course, with’ Capt. ITiram' Iddings, whose bread and butter comes from the pension oflice, at Ft. Wayne, to the amount of $4,000 per year, over and above all expenses; then follows C. O. Myérs,-postmaster of Kendallville, which position -is worth, over and vabove all. expenses, $1,400 per year, and at the tail end of that délegation, and all who went, comes Z. C. Thomas, ex-Clerk of the late Legislature, and who writes his ‘name Dep. Attorney General Thomas, and, of course, is somewhat solicitous about his re-election. llis bread and butter salary is much smaller than the others, but there is some in it. So, it is clearly evident that Noble county. sent a “bread and hutter delegation.”

The Methodists held a social at Capt. Iddings’ on the afternoon of theFourth, which all who were there pronounce a very enjovable occasion.

Jimmy Baker, of this place, has got an idea in regard to the Centennial celebration which we think is a good one. Jle proposes to station a line of cannon from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast, and that each station five thirteen gu’ns,commencing at the East, the second station west to commence firing upon hearing the report of the first, and so on throughout the entire line. He figures that it will take one thousand guns and about five hours to go through. He proposes that the salute go through and return. :He is corresponding with other parties concerning the project.

EvcavLyprus.--This drug, indigenous to Australia, has of late attracted much attention among'the profession on account of the valuable therapeutical properties attributed to it. So well is its reputation as a febrifuge established in its native habit that it is there known popularly as the “Fever Tree.” It is highly recommended in the treatment of intermittents, especially where quinine has failed, also in putrid and other fevers. It possesses high disinfectant powers and has effected marked sucecess in the treatment of feted breath, ulcers, syphilitic and otherwise. It is said also to bea certain specific for bronchitis.
