~—The managers of the pic-nic to be held at Nine Mile Lake on the 29th of thisi month have decided not to permitithe erection on the grounds of stands for the sale of refreshiments of any kind, as it is believéd the people will'supply an abundance for the occasion, which shall be “free as the air we breathe.” Everybody is invited and a grand time anticipated. —QOur es?t@emed friend and fellowtownsman, Timothy ludson, who, ’with,two of his daughters—'Rena and Tillie—is making an extended tour in the West, writes us a hasty note from Giolden City, Colorado Territory, in which he indicates their route as “over the mountains to Central City, Middle Park, Boulder Canon, etc., ete.” They were all well and evidently in the very best-of spirits.

—We desire to call the attention of our readers to the advertisement, in another column of to-day’s BANNER, of the Northern Indiana Fair, to be held at Fort Wayne on the Bth, 9th, 10th and 11th days of September. A splendid list of premiums is offered and the managers are sparing nopains to render this one of the finest exhibitions of the kind ever held in the State. The usual reduction of fare has been secured and we doubt not many of our citizens will improve the rare ppportgnit‘y‘ thus presented to visit both Summit City and the exhibition at a light expense,

COUNTY NEWS AND GOSSIP. KENDALLVILLE. Considerable excitement prevailed here last Friday and Saturday pvér the ‘developements made at Albion relative to ex-Treasurer Mendenhall’s defalcation of % 2,300. The county commissiodiers have employed Mr. Chapin to bring suit against Mendenhall for the recovery of the above sum. This new revelation of republican mismanagement, to use a inild expression, produced eonsiderable uneasiness in republican circles, and a protracted consultation was consequently held here last Saturday. Judge Clapp, Hi. Iddings, Lewis Iddings,-and other shining lights of the ruling power participated. What conclusion they reached, is of course a profound secret. I am of opinion that the people, of Noble county now firmly believe that the BANNER told them a good deal of truth a few years ago when it repeatedly called attention to that, $16,000 fund which was kept in the treasury for some time and then mysteriously disappeared—the Lordw) 6nly knows where. Lew. Iddings’ #B,ooo,and Men-, denhall’s $2,300 indicate something; Fileave it to the reader to infer what.

Public opinion here is generally favorable to Isaac Mendenhall. It is universally conceded that he is an honest man, and whatever error may have been® made in his account is not chargeable to a desire on his part to, defraud the county. lle made no pretention to understanding the oﬁic'ial machinery and was‘consev(fuent’l y liu'gely dependent upon others to manage the affairs of his oflice. Whether some of these persons’imposed upon him will probably be developed in the future. o , .

The opinion is, gaining ground that IL. 11. Wheeler, of Allen toxvllslﬁp, is to be selected as the vepublican candidate for Representative. Several conferences have lately been held here, in which Clapp,-Iddings and Wheeler were the leading participants. . John Weston is said to have appended his signature to a very im,bortant décument or pledge, lately. It may have been cunning on his part, but I would advise him not to let the contents come to the ears of old Baxter.

Much anxiety is manifested among our-German citizens as to the position of Geo. C. Glatte. Some time since he was quite outspoken in his opposition to.the “old corrupt republican party.” Lately, however, he seems to have undergone a change of mind. What his German friends would like to know is whether he stands by Carl Schurz or by Oliver P. Morton. Old Fred. Eichelberg, the old drayman, died last Monday night. e was one of the oldest inhabitants of this place, having resided here upwards of twenty years. . e o - Wm. Sprandel, late of the Central House, is now running a hotel at Logansport. .« | Billy McConnell, our eflicient Circuit Prosecutor, is gaining golden laurels by his unrelenting efforts to suppress houses of prostitution in this city. All good citizens npp'l;md his efforts in that direction. ‘Our editopial “nest-hider” has ot heen to Elkhart since the appearance of “Passenger’s” interesting communication. Beecher’'s statement is. generally considered decidedly “thin.” e The drouth is playing havoe with, the caleulations of our rural friends. Corn, peaches, and in fact everything else in that line, is almost dried up.

While a farmer from Allen township was hauling a load of straw to this place one day last week, his horses became balky and stubbornly refused te “go lang.” As-alast resort, he concluded totry the experiment of applying “fire in the rear.” He accordingly set fire to a bunch of straw, when all of a sudden a lively breeze communicated the fire to the straw on the wagon. Of course, only a fefy minutes were required to reduce the entire load to ashes. The horses escaped without injury, but the wagon was almost converted, into a skelefon —only the iron and a few solid pieces of timber remaining unimpaired. Business is slowly but surely improving in this community. The effects of the . panic are gradually passing away. : ‘ '

Sam Alvord’s eriticism of the action of . the Demoecratic Liberal County Committee will win him no friends.in this part of the county. The animus is too perceptible to deceive. All he can accomplish by such warfare is to. exhibit his contemptible littleness and his factious opposition to one whom he dare not meet face to face. If there was anything wrong about the action of the committee, Sam had an excellent opportunity to point 1t out at the meeting in Albion, as I notice in his own paper that he was present. I am credibly informed he was repeatedly invited to speak out, but it seems his cowardly nature would not permit him so te do. He finds it more congenial to throw stones at a safe distance. e

Hon. John Enos Neff, democratic candidate for Seéretary of State, and Hon. Clarence A. Buskirk, candidate for Attorney General, were in town on Tuesday, and while here formed the acquaintance of a number of our citizens. They are both fine looking young gentlemen and made a very favorable impression. : I understand that -an effort will be made at the meeting of the Democrat-te-Liberal Congressional Committee, next Friday, to hold our congressional convention in the city of Goshen.— This, I trust, will not be done, Kendallville is the place for such gatherings. Let the member from Noble, Mr, Willegt, be on the alert. ' v . : VINDEX. , _"CROMWELL. :

Nothing unusual has occurred here during the last week, but a great deal of complaining has been done among certain classes of the people, because we have no Elijah to intercede for a shower of rain to refresh our parehed and dried up vegetation, :

The people of Sparta township. are yet undecided as to who shall be the candidate for Township Trustee. As

‘is usual in such cases, several persons have been named ‘as suitable men to fill the position. Among them are Dr. H. G. Tucker, of this place, and Wm. A. Smith, south of town,—both good men and eminently qualified to fill that responsible position. We have also heard Charles Weade spoken of on the east side of the township. We have n’t the least objection to Charley, only that he is too near one side of the township. : o - - We very much,need a justice of the | peace and constable-in this village, as® we think it would materia]ly aid in moralizing the town, a reform very much needed. o

‘Jacob Baker offers to donate a corner lot to any man who will' put up a building for hotel purposes. Now, J. B, this is your chance. It will pe a corner lot, and a printing office will do just as well. ; :

A few days ago two .gentlemen, while p%o_wing in a field on the -farm of Simeéon Smith, one mile east of this place, came across a nest of rattle snakes and immediately.set to work to kill them. After the last snake was dispatched, they counted thirty-eight, and then came to the conclusion that “it was 't a very good day for snakes either!” b

Remember the pic-nic at Nine Mile 'Lake on the 20th. A basket dinner - will be given on the ground and everybody is invited. We presume there will be enough dainties for all and ]lOl)é, the people will turn out and have a good time. No groceries will be allowed on the ground. DALE. . ELKHART TOWNSHIP. On Saturday evening of last week the Springfield and Wawaka Debating Clubs had quite a lively debate on the subject of women’s rights, resﬁlting in favor of the negative, which gave success to the Wawaka club. y . The Freewill Baptist denomination have not yet decided whether to build their church at Wawaka or Springfield. We think it should be at Wawaka. Apples, peaches and pears will be a small crop. Corn is ivithering. It will be almest a failure. = Frank Tschabold and family hzfv§ returned from Wisconsin. Ie .says that the grasshoppers have destroyed everything out there, and that times are dull. Frank has moved on the Pearson farm, which he intends to improve. ' Mr. Pearson has renioved to Jasper couq,ty,*ix;.h this State.

Newman, whiere our atténtion was attracted to a very neat and substantial double top carriage, which was just being finished up for market. We were af first inpline& to doubg whether such superior. workmanship was really the product of home manufacture, but when Mr. Newman took us into his ware-room and showed us a number of other buggies, carriages and wagons, of superior make and finish, and still others in the shop in the various stages of construction, we could doubt no more, but were forced to believe that we have a first-class manufactory in our midst, and that it is folly for our citizens to go abroad when they wish to purchase a “real nobby” buggy. There are nine men employed in the shop, and the proprietor makes it a point to use nothing but the very Dest material and warrants all his work. We would advise persons wanting anything in this line to give Mr. Newman a call.

Col. 8. S. Fisher and son, of Cincinnati, who were en route to Havre de Grace by water, in a small boat, while passing through Conewago Rapids, about 14 miles below Harrisburg, on Friday afternoon, were drowned.— The body of the father was found below the rapids on Sunday and is in charge of a relative at York, Pa. That of the son has not yet been recovered.

The corner stone of the new Col-lege-building was laid with due ceremony on Tuesday, the 18th inst., at Hillsdale, Mich. -
