—One week from next -Tuesgay night will occur the transit of Venus across the sun’s face for which such extensive preparations have been made in alt lands., This is the first of these events that has occurred since 1769.— In eight years another will take place, and then men of this ger}eration will never see another. The next after 1882 will take place in 2004, a little too remote a date for us to base much calculation upon. . This country has prepared eight expeditions, five for the southern hemisphere, and three for ‘the northern. The transit is not visible in this country because it will occur after the sun has set, L

We have seo;n girls upon the street, during the phst few days, with cloth gaiters on—girls whose parents are abundantly able to provide better shoes It is positive wickedness to allow a girl to go thus’ unprotected. "It.is 110 wonder that, so many -girls.are puny and subject to fits of severe sickness. Never sacrifice comfort for style, but set that they/have at least good calfskin shoes, ifi not overshoes.”.

[SHMAELITE MURRAY aflirms that we souglhit to atone for Capt. Mitchell’s defeat for Attormey General Ly “secretly aiding the election of his bro-ther-in-law to Congress.” Ah, indeed!

—Mr. Julius Cahen, one of the best men in America, favored his many friends here with a pleasant visit on Wednesday and Thursday of last week. Julius, though a citizen of Gotham, still has a warm feeling for Ligonier.

—Theladiesiof the Methodist Church at Kendallville are arranging to hold a grand Fair next week, commencing on Tuesday evening .a”nd continuing during the week. The proceeds, we understand, axve to be used in the completion of their new ¢hureh at that place. ad e —The attack of the Wolcottville Register upon a citizen of this eommunity, whose name we mentioned in connection with the defeat of Ben Butler, is in the highest degree spiteful and wholly unjustifiable. We would require much stronger evidence than that adduced to even arouse a suspicion that the charges preferred were true. Josiah is not that kind of a man. : - ;

e e et o O Y e COUNTY NEWS AND GOSSIP v T moMmeoTEY @ The elections having passed over peace and quiet again reigns in the land. The defeated ones are feeling despondent, while the successful par: ties are jubilant. TUnder other cir cumstances we might have felt a little gloomy, but, believing that all things (generally considered) work together for good, we are perfectly satisfied. We cannot refrain from feeling a little good at seeing others so unspeakably happy. We like to see.them enjoy themselves, if it is but for a season. We had to cast a hroad grin at the appearance of the BANNER, 'feeling so very joyful. It had both its gun and its cock out. Neither of these emblems ha¥%e been used for so long, that we doubt whether either of them knew how to go off. But we must be moderate on this subject, lest the editor should refuse to publish our comments. The Opposition now have strength enough to show their hand, and we will wait patiently to see what efforts they will put forth to relieve the dear people. . : ‘We are happy to note the fact, that the Lake Steamer is now safely landed and puts on a bold front, has a good out-look and shows well at a distance. = The city has great reasons to feel thankful to Dr. Gower (the master) for this improvement to our lake front. By the time navigation opens

in the spring, “Carrie Belle” will have a new white dress, furnished by Dora Lane, and everything in working order ready for an early spring sail.

. The flouring mills have been, or are about to be, turned over from Berry & Andrews to L. R. & J. C. Hall, who intend to put the mills through at full capdcity and do a large shipping business. It.isthe intention of the Hall

Bro’s to run day and night and ship at least 100 barrels of flour per -~ day, besides keeping up a vast amounst of custom work. We expect soon to know where to get a bounteous supply of mill-feed. The change takes place this week. L '

We have heard nothing lately from the joint stock ice company, = At last accounts we were told that a company was already formed and $150,000 of stock taken. Nine more houses were to be built, about three hundred-hands employed daring the winter, one hundred car-loads of ice shipped each day during the spring and summer, creating’'such a business that it.would per-

haps require.a double track from here to Cincinnati. But the excitement has now somewhat abated. Later.— Our informant tells us that two tons of nails have been ordered and the new ice-houses are to go up like magic. Bully. o ; Our nice little depot is now quite finished; lacking only a stove, an agent and an operator, which will no doubt be. furnished soon.. low are you, Wolcottville? Diptheria still lingers about our town. Since our last communication Mus. Haller's little girl fell a vietim to that much dreaded disease. Many others have been affected, but with a milder form. Amohg the latter were E. 11. Fisher’s eldest and only surviving son, and one or two of Mr. Berry’s boys. Physicians in these cases were entirely dispensed with and the children are all doing well. It is now pretty generally conceded in this vicinity that too much “professional” doctoring is bad for this disease.

The Bergman Family of Bell Ringers gave one of their concerts in. the Lake Side Hall. The entertainment was good, and should they ecall this way again, they will have a crowded house. ; b i

One of Deacon ITighbargin’s brothers, together with his family, have been making the Deacon a very pleasant visit. .We were much pleased in making thé acquaintance of the Deacon’s brother, who is a very elever and intelligent gentleman. We rather suspect from the looks of the man and the shape of his head, that he differs with the Deac in politics. - The “Big Injin” who lectured here a few nights ago, didn’t amount to much. Tle left our town without accumulating much wealth. o A converted Jew lectured at the Baptist church last Friday night, but

inasmuch as he charged ten cents a pop, we were excluded. It didn’t make r?uehi difference to us anyhow, we are'alréady converted. But why do n’t he labor with his old brethren ? No one will attempt to deny that salvation is‘not cheap enough at ten cents a dash when it comes from a converted Jew. The Magnet Woolen Mills are, still running at full capacity and are making money. While many other woolen mills have closed for the winter, the Magnet still finds it profitable to keep ahead.- These mills have never done half so well as they have since they got clear of that intolerable nuisance called a superintendent. Some of our boys went out hunting last week and captured a couple of wild turkeys. The boys were jubilant, others (a little jealous perhaps) claimed that the turkeys were only half-breeds, having many a white feather. .But the hunters say that they were wild, very wild, and if these were not wild they would like to see a wild turkey. — }

Some of our citizens are using hard coal for fuel this winter and think it is just as cheap.as wood and much more convenient. This is rather a joke on wood-dealers in this wooden country. :

The winter term of school commenced last Monday, under the supexvision of Mr. Johnson. ’Squire Wmn. Dixon is now School Director. We have no further particulars, and further deponent saith not. {

~ Dr. Rabey lost a very fine horse from some mysterious disease, which he thinks was the effects of poison. We hope, for the credit of our town, that the Doctor is mistaken. A human being-mean ‘enough to poison a horse, is one more proof of the doctrine of total depravity, " Dr. Ward, of Wawaka, unloaded a drug-store from the cars at our depot

last Saturday and took the same to Wawaka. : | Since the long evenings have come in, that familiar individual’s company is very much sought after in our place. We mean “Pedro.” Summer lingers in the lap of wini ter. We,mean Indian summer. : ALEXIS. .
