. KENDALLVILLE. | IReceived too late fof last week’sissne.] | A wedding in the higher circle of Kendallville society is about to transpire at the residence of Capt. Hiram,,.l Iddings. The ceremony is to take place this (Wednesday) evening »and’ the Captain’s only remaining daughter l will be the “star” of the occasion. A large number of guests have. been in- ‘ vited. We notice Rev. Geo. W. Chapman, of Ligonier, is in town this ‘morning and presume he is to officiate in the matrimonial rites, - = l - A discussion of the merits and de- | merits of the many aspirants for recognition by the Albion convention ' seems to be a matter of vital import- } ance among politicians and occupies a ; good deal of attention. Some of the candidates already show signs of nerv- ,! ousness in contemplation of the fact that “many are called, but few will be chosen,” and the question comesf home to each, “Isit 19" - : The ladies of the M. E. Church are | preparing a dinner in the grove for’ those attending the Democratic-Lib-eral convention. The proceeds, we understand, are to be applied on their ~ new church. , Our public schools commenced last Monday. Prof. Bachelder is still at the helm, and Mrs. L. E. Goodwin has taken charge of the primary department. The school already numbers nearly four huundred pupils. L The nefw Methodist church is rapidly approaching ¢ompletion. It will be hfl\.\' far the finest in the city when / completed, and will cost not far from S:!nimm. iy / Our entei‘prising young friend, Connell Cox, has gone to Three Rivers, Michigan, where he is employed as a nlerk‘ ina gl'p'cex'y store. Ie isa trusty fellow, and 'we hope this relief from study and the monotony of the school- " room will prove advantageous to his physical well-being. : : The wife and daughter of Walter S. Plait are visiting friends in this place. Walt was for a long time employed in the printing oflices of this city but for several years has been in Michigan. e has recently established a paper, called the #remont Times, at Fremont Center, a thriving railroad town. some twenty-five miles west of Big Rapids. Mr. Platt’s many friends here will be pleased to learn of his prosperity, and we heartily wish him success in his new enterprise. ' Henry Wakeman is still willing to vield to the wishes of the people, should they determine to give him the Clerkship. . Elder T. H. Stewart is abisent on a lecture tour in Michigan. Dr. Parker has moved his fdmily to Fort Wayne. A number of our citizens have gone to I't. Wayne to attend the Fair. - V.

ELKHART TOWNSHIP. [Received too late for last week’s issue.] Moss Back is commonly seen upon the streets of Wawaka when he is not at home in bed. ' ' The Democrats have nominated M. AL Dodge.for Township Trustee. Mr, Dodge is just the man for that office. The opposite party hias renominated G. W. Mummert for t{he same position. > : s John H. Hoffman, of Ligonier, is Fteaching a prosperous singing-school * at Springfield. James M. Trump is teaching a term of select school at Wawaka. i We had quite a wedding in this community last Sunday. Miss Lena Frick was the smiling bride and Josh. Mawhorter: the happy groom. The interesting ceremony was performed by Elder Jones, at the residence of the bride. We wish them a happy and prosperous life. ' Last Sunday Daniel Lower, a wellknown tiller of the soil, had about thirty tons of hay burned. It is supposed to have been set on fire. While passing by we notice that the new Kansas school-house is going up “quite lively. SILVER SIDE. R e The Republicans Must Halt. " It is asserted by its supporters that the pending Civil Rights bill is the legitimate offspring of the Thirteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Buteven if its echampions can pass it through Congress, do they dream of being able . to enforce its more extreme provisions in the South? Concede for a moment that this bill is a logical deduction from the constitutional provision which abolished slavery; do its advocates forget that the insurgents yielded to abolition at the close of the war solely because they were powerless to fight a day longer? Then as to the Fifteenth Amendment, these ardent supporters of the Civil Rights bill ought to remember that the universal - negro suffrage was at the outset accepted with great reluctance by a lnarge body of Northern Republicans. Since then their gravest apprehensions as to the effects of this measure have been more than realized by the base uses to which negro suffrage has been put by the carpet-bag minions 'of the Administration. , The republican party must abandon the extreme points in the Civil Rights hill. An influential portion of the Republicans will not take another step in that direction. They will abide by the three amendments which grew out of the war, but before they will ~consent to confer any more special privileges upon the emancipated negroes they will insist that they make better use of the right of suffrage than they have been wont to do under such leaders as Casey, Moses, Clayton, ‘and their carpet-bag and scalawag allies., : The Republican party should retreat in good order from its advanced ground on this subject while it can.— In States like Vermont, where the colored population is less than a thousand, or in Maine where it is less than two_thousand, the party can stand a few rhetorical flourishes; but in the Central and Western States the body of the Republicans will not tolerate the doctrine at all, while in the South it will ferment strife and bloodshed. /The Republicans must, therefore, drop “this measure, or be beaten in the November elections.—New York Sun.

The post office department’s last trouble is on account of the Beecher business. Themails are overwhelmed with postal cards, bearing doggerel upon-the subject, in spite of the difficulty in finding a rhyme for the hero’s name. It is said that the post-mag-ters are lying awake of nights, trying to devise means by which they can preserve their young men from demoralization. = Beecher should have thought of that. o

1‘ SHAM PHILANTHROPY. | A contemporary reminds us of the: fact that nothing can be more conclusive against the sham philanthropy of the vepublican party in its attempt to i. legislate the negro into the condition | of social equality with the white man j; than the fact that in the southern | States freed from carpet-bag rule, and ’ under the substantial control of the ’ whites—Virginia, West Virginia, [ North Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, ‘and Georgia—the public school sys- ‘ tem is in a prosperous congdition. Notl withstanding the poverty of the peo- ' ple, free schools have been impartially sustained for both white and black ! children. In South Carolina, Missisi sippi and Louisiana, where the negro ' is the important factor in the State, | the school system languishes, and if 'solely reliant upon State aid would soon altogether fail. No worse thing can happen the negro in the South than to deprive him of the means of educ;ttioxf. 3_ The civil rights bill will ' do this by confining white children to ' private schools, and preventing the appropriation ‘of public money for school purposes in all the States where the whites are in the majority. ‘ S 0 DR— . A REPUBLICAN OPINION. ! The Cannelton (Ind.) Reporter, a republican paper edited with more than ordinary ability by Judge Mason, gpeaks thus in regard to two import~ant planks in the State platform:

~ The Indiana Democratic Platformin its position upon the Civil Rights Bill, will in our opinion, more nearly accord with the sentiments of the people of this State than the Bill itself. -We believe a majority even of the Republicans of the State oppose the Bill as unwise, uncalled for, and of doubtful constitutionality. o Upon the temperance question we also think there will be found a heavy majority favoring the licensé system with more stringent penalties for both the seller and the person who becomes intoxicated. i i

. The State Sentinel believes that it has treed a ceoon, and is bold to say that Dan Voorhees has only been acting possum in pretending that he had retired to the shades of private life, while the.said Daniel has his heart set upon the vacancy in the United States Senate. The Santinel is very certain that Daniel manipulated the resolutions of the late Democratic State convention with a view to please the Independent party which he, Daniel, believes, will hold the balance of power in the next Legislature, and that his reply to Morton was only to place him more prominently in front with Democrats. Daniel may be an old coon, e may be laying his plans and weaving a very nice net work to accomplish his ends, but the Sentinel need have no fears about his capturing the Independents or deceiving his own party. Daniel stands convicted of a erime as a member of the late Congress. He is known to have been one of the untaithful and dishonest crew who made a raid upon the public Treasury and filched from the people five thousand dollars for which he never rendered an equivelant; it is known that he pocketed this sum with indecent bravo, and chuckled over his ill-gotton pile. No, Daniel will not go into the United States Senate until the people elect. Representatives wlhose corruption and venality -is at least equal to the graceless scamp who deceived and betrayed his party. Mr. Voorhees may have talent of a high order, but what signifies talents in a man reckless of common honesty and virtue ?— Winamac Democrat. . - ] O R——— - Viee-President Wilson on the Third Term. . [Herald Interview.] After conversing on affairs of no publie imporf:m(:e,%he topic gradually changed to that of politics. The guestion as to whether the President had any idea of athird term was naturally the one that should be first discussed, and in this copnection- Mr. Wilson was most frank and out-spoken. He gave it as his most decided opinion that General Grant had not the smallest idea of running for the Presidency for a third term. Neither did he think that President Grant encouraged any such thought. Doubtless there are a great many office-holders and parties who were desirous of getting into public positions who would prefer to see the President remain at the head of affairs for another four years; but, on the other hand, thereis the large mass, composed of the best men in:the Republican party, who would be entirely and utterly epposed to. any such design. “In fact,” said Mr. Wilson, “I for one should vote against him, for I think it has come to be understood and accepted by the American people that it would be both unwise and impolite to allow any man to fill the office of President of the United States for more than two years.”

No Compromise for Tilton. | [From a Herald Interview.] Mr, Tilton—There is no compromise for me. 1 have made charges against Mr. Beecher which are true. He has made a denial of them which is false. ‘What compromise is possible in such acase? Thereisnone. lam right and Mr. Beecheris wrong. Ifheshould come to me offering all the wealth and honors in the world I would not move an inch—not a hair’s breadth. I am not surprised that Mr. Beecher wants to compromise, whether with Mr. Moulton or fvith myself. = Mr. Beecher might perhaps compromise honorably with Mr. Moulton by offering him a suitable apology for accusing him falsely. As for me, my case is in Court, and Mr. Beecher must settle it there. You will hear of the Chinese wall falling down before you will hear of my accepting a compromise from Henry Ward Beecher. ol A MAN 1N RUulNs.—One of the saddest spectacles in the world is a human being shattered and broken down by the use of ardent spirits.. But the damage may be repaired, the ruin restored to perfect soundness, by a course of that most powerful of all invigorants, Dr. WALKER'S' VINEGAR BrrTeßrs. .

- ILLINOIS CORRESPONDENCE. EpIiToR BANNER:— We left Ligonier on. Wednesday, Sept. 2d, bound ‘for Central Illinios, arriving at our ‘destination on Thursday morning.— After a few days of a vambling visit, we find ourselves with a situation as clerk in Oak Grove, a very enterprising little place, surrounded by a most beautiful prairie country. Speaking of prairie, we must relate to the BANNER readers something of what we saw of prairie land. Vit : Arriving at Danvers, tlie place of our destination, we made a walk of about five miles before dinner. Indeed we were nearly overcome with ‘astonishment at the vast extent of open country, including thousands of acres, on which hundreds of cattle were grazing. We Hawpatchers know nothing abeut prairie. lere'is a scope of about 880 aén’es that' Iras neyer been cultivated, not even enclosed with a fence, which is owned by’a young lady residing in Kentucky. Land can be bought here at from $25 to 850 per acre. This is a great corn country, but wheat does not do so well. Corncobs and ceoal comprise the principal articles of fuel and can be furnished at a moderate expense. (Coal is worth about $3.50 per ton, but the cobs are not sold in that way, The soil here is a sticky muck, and, I presume, in a wet season is anything but pleasant to travel in. But in these warm, dry times the -roads are veéry nice, not much dusty and dry and solid as can be. Yesterday (Sept. Sth) commenced the TFair at Bloomington, whieh is twelve miles from this place. We purpose spending a, day or two there and expect to.find a grand display of stock and miscellanious uz'ti(r]es. I will close my correspondence for this time and if I can find enough of’ interest to write about, I will let my numerous BANNER frie,nd;s; hear from me again. ! o ! ! yEnclosed please, find” the requisite amount to pay for thée BANNER six nionths. . e

Yinegar Bitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made ehiefly from the native herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. the medicinal properties of: which are extracted therefrom without the use of Aleohol. The question is almost daily asked, # What is the cause of the unpa alleléd success of VINEGAR BriTERS Y’ Our answer is, that they remove the ~ause of disease, and the patien*t recovers Lis health. - They are the great blood parifier and a life-giving prineciple, . a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of VixEGAR DBITTERS in- healing the sick of every disease man is heir to. They are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonie, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Diseases

The propertics of Dr. WaLKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS are Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminative. Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic. Sedative, Counter-Irritant, . ‘Hudorific, Alterative, and Anti-Bilious - Gratefual Thousands proclaim VINEGAR BITTERS the most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained 'the sinking system. No Person can take these Bit- _ ters according to directions, and remain. long unwell, provided their. bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital or- - gans wasted beyond repair. Bilious, Remittent, and Intermittent Fevers, which are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, espeecially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, lilinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Roanoke, James, and many others, with their 'vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autpmn, and remarkably so during seasons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably aecompanied by extensive derange‘ments of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purZative, exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to DR. J. WALKER'S VINEGAR Brrrers, as they will speedily remove the dark-colored viseid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the! liver, and generally restoring the healthy funetions of the digestive organs. - - Fortify the body against disease by purifying all its fluids with VINEGAR DBrrrers. No epidemic can take hold of a'system thus\(lorem'med. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Headache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eruectations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the region of the Kidneys, and a hundred other painful symptoms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better gunarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertisement. Serofula, or King’s Evil, White Swellings, Uleers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflajnmations, Mercurial affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, ‘Sore Eyes, ete. In these, as in all other constitutional Diseases, WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS have shown gheir great curative powers in the most obstinate and Jintractable cases. Lo :

' For Inflammatory and Chronic | Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, Discases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no ‘equal. Such Dis‘eases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.—Persons engaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters and Miners, as they advance in life, are sub ject to paralysic of the Bowels. To guard against this, take a dose of WALKER'S VINEGAR BrrTERS occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tetter, Salt- Rheum, Blotehes, Spots, Pimples, Pustiles, Boils, Carbuncles, Ringworms, Scald-head, Sere Eyes, Erysipélas, Iteh, Scurfs, Discolorations. of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system ina ' short time by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many theusands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no ver‘mifuges, no anthelminitics will free the . system from worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood, orthe turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse - it when it is foul; your feelings will tel you when.
