~.=An important announcement is this week made by Mr. Decket, the ~ leading grocer of Ligonier.. Inasmuch as he m“V?flfl for mere bun: combe, but invariably means exactly - what he says, the people of this and ~adjoining counties may safely favor him with a call and make their purchases of what they need of his goods: There are few better equipped grocery - eshfiisnm -in fthe country than Mr. Decker’s. e e

Kendallville Loéals.

- The extremely cold weather,with the icy condition of the streets and sidewalks, has proved- quite disastrous to pedestrians, and to a great extent has ‘interfered with out-door travel. Mrs. Kane received a fall which resulted in the breaking of several bones, besides other injuries. Quite a number of others have fallen and been more or less injured. - Siovt Our city treasurer last Monday disposed of quite a number of pieces of property for the payment of taxes. It seems he found plenty. of bidders.

, Again notices are stuck up for bids to carry the mail to and from the depot: This contract was let to Mr. Bosworth, who, so far as the public knows, has Jperformed ‘hisidut\:_y well, But it is supposed our postmaster has discovered some. irregularities,” and: hence the notices for bids. . Once before similar charges were preferred and notices stuck up, when Mr. Bosworth put in a bid of eight dollars per month more’than he had been getting and received the: contract, by which operation the people lost $96 a year. Whether this will prove a like transaction, time will tell. -

_ Various parties are discuésing where the new passenger depot should be built. Many are-in favor of locating it on the corner south of the railroad and just east.of Main street. - A handsome depot erected upon.that ground would add much to the appeararce of the city, as well as being very convenient for the inhabitants. -~ = ¢

Death seems to be rapidly at work among us. Since my last communication Mr. Charles Brust, Sr., of the firm of Brust & Byer,died; aged fifty-three years. He had been ailing for some time with consumption. His funeral was preached on - Monday at the Lutheran.church and the remains sent on the afternoon train to New York, where they will bé interred. . ~ Mrs. Gault, the mother-in-law of exSheriff Crosley, died last Friday and was buried on Sunday. She was quite aged and had been ailing for some time. s - : ) oK :

Also, Will:Shaw departed this life last week and was buried in the old graveyard on ‘Thursday, that bitter cold day of last week. g 1 * Notwithstanding people die, people also marry, and on Thursday of last week, regardless of the cold, a large party gathered at the residence of Mrs. Welch to witness the marriage ceremony of herself and Mr. John C. Hill. The Rev. Lipes’ officiated with a very long ceremony, which if the parties had been young, would have become wery embarrassing, but being somewhat ‘experienced in life they endured it tothe e“nd,.after,_ which congratula~ tions, with many kisses, followed. - A number of fine and costly presents were given, 'cohsiéting of'a silver wafer pitchgér, -goblets; cake baskets, butter dish; sugar. spoons, pie knife, ete. The refreshments were solid and substantial, ‘and highly appreciated by those present, and, take it all around, the occasion when Mrs. Welch became Mrs. Hill was a very enjoyable one, ~ Card playing seems to have produced a little commotion‘in the Methodist church’ of this place. .One old gentleman, demand_éd, that an offending brother slould get up before the congregation and declare that he was sorry for having indulged in a quiet little game. But the response was not all the old gentleman wished. It was, “I shall do no such thing,” and what the ending will be, I cannotgsay. The Thomas religion permits card playing, and most of us here endorse it.

- A_petition is being’ circulated by the physicians of this place, asking the Legislature to pass a law preventing these who are not .graduates of a medical college from practieing medicine. The M. Ds; are generally signingabs oE R L e

The L. S. & M. 8. Railroad Company lost about $3,000 by the burning of their wood shed here on Wednesday evening of last week, and but for the hard -work of our citizens the loss would have been much larger. -~ The freight house -and passenger depot were abandoned and their contents removed, but the free use of water saved them. . Tabor’s mills were deluged with fire, as'was that whole patt of town for nearly a mile, and it seems remarkable that' no.further damage was.done. The excessively high wind and the ‘extreme cold weather were favorable elements in preventing the further extension of the fire. ~ - .

Wawaka Items.

I' would like to know what has become of all the correspondents of Wawaka ? At one time last winter there were four, and now but one. But if you will give me a little room in your BANNER, I will try and make the second one.

The Meéthodists have just closed their quarterly meeting, which commenced last Saturday. . Rev. Hutchinson, of Elkhart, presided in the absence of ‘Elder Lemon. He certainly had a message- for this people that was. worthy of acceptation,-and we trust by the way he held the audience spell-bound, -that they received it in good and honest hearts. Indeed, it ‘was a season of great refreshing, and a time long to ‘be’ remembered. By the way, if “Sunny Side” would show the light of his countenance occasionally’in thie church he would not need to tak®the word of that “informant” whom he relies so much upon, and if said ‘informant would do likewise, +there would be no need of misrepre senting the M.

.~ About Justices of the Peace. ' To the Editor of the National Banner: 3 . Dear Bir:—l have been reading an | article in your paper of Feb. 4th, baken from thé-Vincennes Sun, and headed uy ustices of the Peace.” = 'The writer ! says there is a bill before the Legislature propesing two important changes; one to enlarge the amounts in litigation, the other to extend jurisdiction over the céunty in which they reside. To the first I would not object; ito the second I most emphatically doobject. In my opinion it would be disastrous; to the interests of any county in the. State. He says it was stated in the discussion there was a wide-spread feeling throughout the country in favor of some such measure. . If it had been said through cities, it might have been true. If his theory is correct, then all we need is to elect two or three justices in a county, and let them keep their offices at the county seat, where we can have coudrt any time, and let the Sheriff have the business of the constables. . |

Perhaps in canvassing a whole county, two or three popular men who know their duty may be found capable of discharging the responsible duties of a justice. It may be the writer is untortunate and livesin a township where there is no material suitable for a justice; but it is my opinion the fault is more in his judgment than otherwise.. He represents a large majority of the justices in this State to be ignorant and indolent ‘men, claiming wisdom to himself against all the voters of the township that are best acquainted and the most interested. He says justices jurisdiction over the county would have a tendency of securing justice. ‘The fact would be to cause a ruinous expense to defendants. llf there are 80 many leatherhead justices, the law provides for juries to try cases. . It may be possible that in the writer’s fownship a popular jury ean not be found. He is reminded a change of venue can be had and takes a caSe to-townships where there are competent justices and also juries.— ‘Again, he says, if you want to bury a claim so deep that it will never be heard from again, just put it in suit in some good, easy, old.magistrate’s court. Now, Mr. Stoll, is such language as is here applied to so large a number of officers of the State of Indiana respectful ? He would carry the impression that justices, or at least a large proportion, are old, worn-out, ignorant and indolent fogies, not fit for business ofithat kind. Does he not know that the law requires of each justice a sufficient bond,. approved by the Clerk of his countyy compelling him to perform his duties with fidelity to the law of the State and to those to whom hLe administers the law? : I DAVID LAw,

TmosE who have their clothing made to order, and can appreciate well made and good fitting garments, should leave their orders with Engel & Co., the popular clothiers at Kendallville. S

A young man named XKrause, a brakesman on the D, E. R. & L. Railroad, met with a serious accident last week.

—Uncle Steve Lockhart informs us that he has living in his family a venerable cat which is now past twenty-. three years old. He says the animal is well and bids fair to enjoy. several years more of peaceful life. This is the oldest representative of the feline we'ever heard of, but Mr: Ray Lahk—} ester, a prominent young naturalist of Oxford, in a prize essay “on compagfa-{ tive longevity in man and the lower animals,” mentions a cat which died ‘ at the age of eighteen years, but which for some years had been unable to 1 ‘move, except slowly. “With régard to ‘ our more common domesticated animals,” says Mr. Lankester, “it may be stated that the horse and ass, under favorable: conditions, live from 20 to 25 years, and may reach forty; while the mule is longer-lived than either of its parents. The ox lives for 15 or 20 years; the pig, 20 years; the sheep and goat, 12 years; the dog, 10 or 12 years (one dog is, however, known to have lived 84 years); ‘the cat, 9 or 10 syears, and the sabbit 7or 8 years” In regard to man, the author finds that .Fuegians and other degraded savages are short-lived, seldom exceeding the age of 45, and that the average Age ut death of Englishmen who have reached the age of 50,8 755 years: " ' —Quite a sensation occurred at Ft.
