It is now in good time to suggest extra efforts to improve the shows at the. exhibition halls. In most of the Fairs in this State the chief merits are found in fine stock. Domestic industries will bear a good deal of encouragement. A good start in this direction has been made in Tippecanoe county, .where the best-lot of butter will receive a premium of $25.

Harrison Ford, known in this community as Prof. Ford, had been found a couple of miles down the railroad toward Kendallville véry much stupefiéd from the effects of poison.- Several of our citizens repaired to the spot to see the subject, and the réport proved only to be too true. The fown trustee. was notified and Doctor Franks of Brimfield was called. At last accounts, Monday 4 p.

Dwight-Truesdall & Co., have started a meat market at the old stand in this place and it is their intention in future to keep on hand a choice seleetion of fresh meats.

Dr, Erickson, Harry Ward, Gus. Frink, Hank Long, and others of Kendallville, spent an hour or two in fishing here one evening last week. They divided into-two squads, with this result: one squad caught 150 in number and the other (Harry Ward’s crowd) caught a store-box full. This report is from their own mouths and we presuame is correct. S

Now, lest some may be misled by his narrative, I wish to say that the individual referred to is not, nor neve'r, was, a member of the North Eastern. It must be that Alexis has been misinformed upon this subject, as he certainly did not design to throw any undeserved disgrace upon the society ; for we are loth to believe that, with all his wickedness, Alexis is mean enough to willfully, maliciously and deliberately put upon the shoulders of the society a loathsome burden, which he would not himself so much as touch with one of his fingers. : : | FRIEND OF NORTH EASTERN, .

‘Theological Controversies, - The Sabbath Question from Different Standpoints. Seventh Day Adventists not Ready S for a Joint Debate. o “Something of 4 commotion was created in our midst last week by the announcement that Elder A. Walker, of Kokomo, a minister of the Christian'denomination, had arrived in town and ‘issued a challenge to the Tent Elders (Seventh Day Adventists) for a .jg)__‘ivgt discussion of the Sabbath ques-‘ tion.™ ) :

“As stated in our issue of last week, the proposition for a joint debate was nat accepted by the Tent Elders; but the use of the tent was by them ten‘dered, and declined for reasons stated below by Elder Walker. - Various conflicting reports having been set afloat’in regard to the failure to arrange for a joint discussion, a fw;ommittee of three, accompanied by Elder Walker, visited the Tent last “Thursday forenoon, for the purpose of arriving at a full and fair undérstanding. The somewhat exciting “skirmish” of the préceeding night was ignored as far as possible. The com‘mittee had but one object in view,and that to secure a joint discussion of the Sabbath question. Elder Lane stated that such an arrangement would interfere with the tent meetings, whereupon the committee suggested that this difficulty might be obviated by holding the debate during daytime. But Elder Lane declined. He would not agree to a jolnt discussion with Elker Walker until after tent season, which he says terminates about the middle of October. : |

That there might be no' misrepre‘'sentation either one way or the other, both parties -made a statement in writing, which is herewith submitted to public scrutiny: ~ 1 ELDER LANE’S STATEMENT." The Seventh Day Adventists have been giving a course of lectures in this place, and in doing so have introduced the Sabbath question and stated repeatedly that if they were riot teaching the truth on the point that any christian minister could have the tent to convince the people that they were wrong in their positions. The Disciples sent off and procured the services of Eld. Walker, of Kokomo, who came on and- proposed to go into joint discussion. " 5

The undersigned declines to discuss the Sabbath question with Eld. Walker during tent season, either day or night, for the reason that it would militate agai’nst the interest. of the meeting. The undersigned, however, is willing to give the use of the tent to any minister to present his side of the question in opposition to his (Lane’s) doctrine. . But is 'willing to meet Elder W. in- joint discussion at Ligonier after tent season, which will terminate about the middle of October next. - S. H. LANE.

ELDER WALKER'S STATEMENT. The tent was offered: on the followlowing conditions, viz.: i Ist. That Elder Walker should occupy one hour each night and establish ‘ his views of first day sacrédness or! duties. G SR 2d. When through, Eld. Lau#’uldfl reply and give the privilege ten minutes to correct any. misrepresentations. S ; . 3d. Could make no reply to.the Elder’s teaching without doing it before hearing him, except a ten minutes speech, and could not even make this without staying in Ligonier three days and nights after my addresses to hear his replies. ; e T 4th. His absolute refusal to meet me upon equal grounds either in debate or in my use of the tent, for to undertake to refute a man’s teaching without having heard him and be replied to in ‘speeches of one hour in length with privilége of ten minutes to respond, is unequal and unfair. ; . - A. WALKER. , 'POINTS FOR DISCUSSION. oo Do the Scriptures teach that the 'seventh day Sabbath is to be observed by Christians throughout the Gospel dispensation ? Elder Lane affirms, Elder Walker denies. . - : Do the Scriptures teach that the first day of the week is to be sacredly observed by Chriatians? . Elder Walker aflirms, Elder Lane denies. | toe —_———— e ————— : <3 '~ “A SQUARE BACK DOWN.” . Statement of F-(;tg.‘ : Ep. BANNER:—In your last issue we noticed an article entitled “A Square Back Down,” in which your _correspondent stated that the Seventh Day Adventists had refused to discuss ‘the Sabbath question.. ' Your correspondent must have been laboring under a false impression when he penned i the article. . A statement of facts will fully set the matter in a proper light ‘before the numerous readers of your valuable paper. i R - Since we commenced meetings in your town we have investigated different subjects before large'and attentive congregations, and, in so doing, .have challenged no one, buthave stated. that if we were not teaching the truth, we would permit any Christian | minister to use our tent and to show wherein we wgre wrong. The Disciple Church sent for a:representative man. “We offered him the tent which he would not: accept, but demanded of us an immediate discussion. This we declined until our tent meetings for -the season were. closed, and because we did, this your correspondent claimed we had refused to discuss the question, which is incorrect, as an article in the present issue will plainly indicate. . .

Elder Walker’s Lectures—Postpone- . ment,

In view of the surrounding circumstances, Elder A. Walker concluded to withdraw his appointment to lecture in the Christian Church on the Sabbath question;, as was announced in our last issue, believing that it would be to the interest of all concerned to have said lectures at some future time. - iE

MR.

It is nearly impossible to predict the yield of wheat. The present weather is almost without a parallel, the crop is so backward, and so ‘many ‘contingencies - are possible, no one-can approximate the result. The present outlook indicates about threefourths of a crop.—Frankfort Banner. The farmers have commenced harvesting this week in Knox county, and if no more heavy rains fall there is a prospect for a very fair crop of wheat. By the first week in July all the wheat in this county will have been cut.

Peace Sentiment. o ‘Mr. David Dudley Field, an eminent lawyer of this country, who deserves the highest’ honor as an enthusiastic ‘apostle of peace. has-made a draft of an. international code, extending to seven hundred and two sections, and covering the whole field of international, public and private law. His propositions in respect to the adjustament of national difficulties are the | following: 1. Thatevery nation sup--posing itself to have a ground of com‘plaint against another shall give formal notice of the cause or causes of such.complaint, as well as of the re‘dress which it seeks. 2. That when, after such notice, the two nations find themeselves unable to agree as to the matter in dispute, they shall appoint a joint high commission, whose isiness shall be, if possible, tu reconcile them, and in 'this way terminate the dispute. 3. That, in the event of a failure, the question shall be referred to a high tribunal of arbitration, consisting of seven persons, @ppointed in a specifice way, whose decision shall be final. 4. That the nations that are parties to the code embracing these principles shall bind themeselves to see to it that each nation thus a party shall not resort to war with any other party acecepting the code, but shall in all cases comply with its provisions for the preservation of peace. ! ’ . ‘Utilizing the 'Desert of Saharn. }

Proposals have from time to time been made to let .the water of the ocean into the sunken desert of Sahara, but until quite récently they have had reference to a connection between the Red Sea and the eastern portion of the vast sterile waste. Attention has now been drawn to the course of the river Belta, which enters the Atlantic near Cape Bojadar, and which seems to present especial facilities for the. ‘execution of a design that would do 8o much to open up the great African continent. |The Belta runs through a ridge, -separating the great desert from the coast,and at points of its course, where .the ridge is:very narrow, it is/ proposed to deepen the channel, and ‘let the water of the Atlantic in. | The vast sea that could thus be created could be easily connected by a short canal with'Niger at Timbuctoo; and a water system of communication' would thus be established that would produce an incalculable revolution in the climate and civilization: "of: those regions.. This scheme has commended- itself to Sir John Glover, Mr. Donald Mackenze and others, and the first named gentleman have offered -to lead aisurvey- | ing party to report on the practicability and probable expense of the enterprise. 3 ¢ L :

Death to the Bugs, A'safe, sure and cheap mixture for the destruction of the potato bug sent free to all the world by B. F. Philips, a farmer, of Colebrook, 'Ashtabula county, Ohio. It is as follows: =

.. Take equal parts of copperas and slaked lime: I used five pounds of each totwenty gallons of water and put it.on w h a whitewash brush. One hand can, dope an acre or more in a day,: I reduced a small quantity about one-half and it had the same effect, and instead of injuring it seems 'to improve the vines. My field of potatoes was literally alive with the bugs; I gave the potatoes one dopeing and next day not a live bug could be found in the field. For the good of suffering humanity please ¥et this pass around with Tightning speed. Respectfully, . B. F. PHILLIPS.

Asher. . George W. Asher of Clearspring township, finhlly succumbed to the disease that had for months preyed upon his. system, and departed this life on Monday morning, June 21st. He was one of the earlier settlers of the county, and in height of statute, and apparent strength .of body, excelled all men in the county. He was buried on Tuesday by the Masonic Fraternity, of which he was a member. The attendance at the fineral was oneé of the largest ever assembled on" such .an occasion in the country. The teams in procession numbered 56. The funeral sermon was preached by Rev. J. P. Jones, from a text selected by the deceased before he died, the words. of which iwere, “If a ’m@ die shall he live again. Job 14—147 . Thelage of the deceased was 69 years and 15 days.—Lagrange Standard. ) To the Soldiers of Indiana. The exécutive committee having charge of the soldier’s reunion to be held at Indianapolis next fall .will meet some time during :the ensuing month, and it is desirous that each company and line officer in the State report his name, rank, regiment and present post office address to the undersigned at Greencastle without delay, in order that arrangements may be perfected for assembling the differ- , ent commands by companies . and regiments at the reunion. -This is requisite toward making it a success. i GEO.
