- —The law which Col. Johnson “dispenses” to our Rump Council was in olden days called buckwheat law. . . —We don’t wish to appear inquisitive; yet. we have some anxiety to learn what the editor.of. the Kendallvillé Standard now thinks of crow.

' —An immense number of tramps and dead beats preceeded the show and told of -its coming, on' Friday evening. p

© —Jesse L. Dunning is out two pairs of pantaloons, two shirts, aud two pairs of fine boots, by the 'visit of a burglar-on Saturday night. .- —There will be a grove meeting in the grove near the Skinner burying ground, in Jefferson township,ion Saturday and Sunday, August sth and 6th. .

—Councilman McConnell gives the term “Rump Council” a definition that is not laid down iu the books.

Tally one-for McConnell. —Samuel E. Alvord, Esq., of Albion, made a pleasant little call in our sanetum, on Saturday last—that being his first visit to THE BANNER office since 1870. We understand. Mr. Alvord to be a candidate for County Clerk, thoagh he did-not so inform us during his visit. ‘ - —The “new School Board” made a formal demand upon the old Board for the books, papers, &c., on Monday_ last. .

‘—The school-house at Lepird’s corner, in Elkhart township, which was recently-struck by lightning, has been repaired by its builder, Mr. J. W. Bordner, and is now again as good as’ it was before struck by the electric current. Mr. Bordner is a good, honest mechanic, who always carries out' his part of 'the contract, whether the loser or gainer by the operation. Such men deserve encouragement and patronage. ‘ o —Four Millers—Adam 8,, Jacob L., Joel, and Jonas R.—for some years residents ;of Elkhart township, departed on Tuesday morning for their new homes in Barton county, Kansas, accompanied by Mr. Rudolph Yoder, of Lagrange .county, who becomes a ‘citizen of the same neighborhood. TheMiller Brothers, as well as Mr. Yoder, are energetic, industrious men, and will doubtless succeed in establishing comfortable homes for their families. THE BANNER extends its best wishes to them all. - . i —TFor the benefit of the readers of the Kendallville Standard we beg leave to state that Mr. Elijah W. ‘Weir, the gentleman of ‘whom such “laudatory” mention was made in the columns of that ‘paper prior to July 28, received the;unanimous nomination for State Senator by the Republicans of Noble and Lagrange. For some reéason or other, the SBtandard omitted to make mention of this fact in its last issue. The omission is doubtless due to an oversight. Such things will happen once in a while. . \—The friends of Geo. B. Teal seem to feel entirely confident of his nomi‘nation by the 18th of August conven‘tion. They claim that George has.‘ during the short time he has haﬂ charge of the Clerk’s office, furnished ~evidence of his ability to successfully -and satisfactorily. manage the affairs of that important- officé; that he is of an affable, courteous and aecommodating disposition; that his integrity is unquestioned, and that he is popular with the masses. Mr. Conlogue, the other. aspirant, is by no means resting on his oars.. He is stirring “around at a lively rate, and being an effective worker, may be expected to be heard from on the day of q’gy’m. tion. - Present indigations, however, point to the nomination of Mr, Teéal.

ROME CITY ITEMS.

. The past week has been one of unusual stir and bustle in Rome. On Wednesday we had a wedding at the mineral springs, in the most romantic form. In that pleasant grove, in the presence of a few witnesses, Benjamin bowed at the throne of Mercy. For further particulars; inquire of B. F. Boler, Miss Mercy Wright or Elder F. Thomas. - | :

- Thursday the city of Kendallville pic-niced on the Island. Many of the prominent citizens, as well as the chief priests and elders, were present. They came on the 11:36 train and remained until 9:30 at night. Many innocent amusements were indulged in, such as croquet playing, boat riding, etc. The Hellican Band was, perhaps, the most noted feature of the day. The ;boys play well and promise to make their mark among prominent musicians. From every appearance, all had a pleasant time and returned ‘home well satisfied. -

. On Friday, eame the picnic from Lagrange, and, like those of the day previous, they were a fine-looking and well-behaved set of people. This not being a strictly reli’,ﬁious pic-nic, they brought with them the Lagrange Band, as well as Hobson"siString'Band,fand, unlike those of the day previous, made dancing a prominent part of their programme. They had a jolly good time until late in the evening, when all returned home, well satisfied that they had had a good time.

On Saturday the'young folks of Albion came for the purpose of having a genuine pic-nic dance. Unfortunately, the weather was unfavorable, ‘being rainy, which.prevented many from coming who would have been here had the weather been favorable. And from the same cause, many of the young folks of our village fzﬁledi to attend, who would have done soo had the weather been dry. The Al-. bion Brass and String Bands :were present and furnished some first-class music. Dancing continued in the grove until midnight, when due re-i spect for the Sabbath compelled all to disperse: for their several homes. , l . Several persons from Rome: attended the convention at Kendallville on Friday last. Jac. C. Zimmerman, of Ligonier, the nominee for Joint Rep'resentative,,s gives general satisfaction to the members of his party. So does that, also, of Mr. Weir for Senator, but. it is apprehended by some that the Kendallville Standard is not happy. A new revolving swing'is now one of the prominent. fixtures of Kome. It was built by J. S. Duesler, of Brimfield, and is owned by Conkright, Benninghoof & Co. It is located near the island bridge, and anybody can get a whirl for a nickel. -

Mr. Jones, our saw-mill man, takes issue with Weebster’s Unabridged Dictionary. e says; according to that book his mill is a vagabond, and he won’t stand it.

The proprietors of our water cure institute have dissolved co-partner-ship. It seems that City life does not agree with Dr. Wilson. He has withdrawn and gone back to Wolcottville, leaving the institution entirely in the hands of Dr. Yarnell. . - A billiard saloon and— &ec., has lately been started in our pious village. The boys say they mean to do what is right; all they desire is to keep people from ‘running to Wolcottville to do their trading. All we have to say is, “Poys, petter you look a leedle oud.” When Sheriff Eagles heard that we were about to have a saloon started here he abandoned the idea of selling our ice away from us. + We most heartily endorséthe sentiments of “Reporter” wi‘th regard to candidates drumming the county to get people to vote for them. Let them* stay at home until the people call for them, and then, and not till then, let thfm' step,to the front. Then we will have none but good men to fill ouroffices. The people seldom make mistakes in this matter, but office-seekers often do. . . ‘ -

_ Fielding Pricket, of Albion, and . C. Fox, of Richmond, this State, two of the Hayes and Wheeler electors, accidentally met in our town last Wednesday., Neither of them talk of taking the stump for the ticket, nor do they seem inclined to say ‘much about it unless solicited to do: so.

Fourteen newspapers of Indiana have espoused the cause of Peter Cooper, and still they come. :

. We Are credibly informed that the independent greenback party will in a-short time put a full ticket in the field in this county, and if every voter will vote his tyue sentiments it will prove to be the };tronges‘t party in the county. Of course we expect the editor of THE BANNER to take issue with us on this question, but “truth is mighty arfd must prevail.” [Youought to know by this time that the editor of THE BANNER is atall times charitable and tolerant in his views. If there is any considerable portion of the people inclined to chase a phantom, we would be the last fo seriously interfere with such innocent amusement.—ED.]

We are informed that Mr. Knisely will be a candidate for Judge, reports to the contrary notwithstanding. Well, if Noble presents two candidates, will not. Auburn: carry away the prize and give us the “last Rose of summer” ? Dora Lane informs us that his frogs are beginning to ripen and will soon be ready to gather, and that they promise a bountiful yield. : ' Charley Watson, late traveling agent for the New Era, has become an unadulterated granger, and is now squatted on a rancho a short distance west of town and is doing finely. Look out for'good news from him soon. i The Magnet Woolen Mills have scores of visitors during the pic-nic season, Nevertheless they still man‘age to get off about 4,000 yards of goods each week., 3

. A new ice-cream and soda-water establishment has put out a shingle at ’Squire Dixon’s old office. . Peter and Daniel Winebrenner are painting Cobbs’ new brick house. The boys are fine workmen, and are doing a good job. f Deacon Highbargin caught a fivepound bass with a piece of raw beef. He was fishing for “bull heads” when the bass took the bait. - Jones’ saw-mill has already turned over a‘thousand logs into railroad tes, and the boys i ntyfour m&ﬁ%‘”“m‘ ““‘-“? {

_Appearances in this quarter would seem to indicate that George B. Teal will bße the republican nominee for County Clerk. S ‘

Next week we shall have something more to say about Fanny Worden and the office of County Recorder. Fauny is eligible (by ‘her next friend) and can beat any person who dares oppose her. Bl

The Romanites propose to have Hon. John H. Baker and Freeman Kelley meet in our town and discuss the political issues of the day. Measures are now being taken to have the matter brought ab?utr,as soon as Mr. Baker gets home. | bRI R ‘We have heard the name of Nelson Prentiss mentioned as the independent greenback condidate for Representative of this county. If Mr. P.ls a Cooper man he would make a good Representative -and could easily be elected. et . | . No one should fail to read the letter from Peter Cooper to Messrs. Hayes ‘and Tilden. . It speaks volumes within itself and will probably never be answered by these Presidential aspirants. : Green corn, green cucumbers and cholera morbus are not noted among the scarcities of the season. The potato bugs are all Grant men. They are determined to “fight it out on this line if it takes all summer.” T he corn crop promises well in this vicinity. : [ ALEXIS.

CHURUBUSCO SQUIBS

~ The grand excursion from North Manchester, this State, to Toledo, 0., came off July 25th. In the, morning promptly at 5:30 the train left North Manchester, freighted with many who were bound for Toledo and the Lake, full of gleg, as the train advanced under the dixTections of Prof. W. A. Gandy, of Churubusco, who acted as conductor on the occasion, and who, by the way, played his part manfully. We found many in waiting at the several stations, and especially at thls place. It seemed that all of our citizens were in waiting to get aboard the train. Our train moved on, receiving passengers at every station until we reached Butler, the last station at which we were allowed to receive passengers for the excursion, when, on taking a look through the train, we found every -coach (six in number) | packed to its utmost with passengers, and all enjoying themselves hugely. We arrived in Tolodo at 11 o’clock .A. 3. Leaving the train, we marched, led by Chase’s Silver Cornet Band, of Churubusco, to the Whm'f,":wllere we. found the beautiful and magnificent steamer Marine City under full steam and ready to launch out into the deep waters of Lake Erie. The ride on the lake was indeed ‘grand, and while on the water we had a regular old-fash-ioned pic-nic dinner, whieh was enjoyed by all who had the pleasure of participating therein. The ride on the lake was about twenty miles, there and back. - Our party, consisting of about four hundred persons, then separated and were scattered through the city in all directions, sight-seeing, until's o’clock p. ~ when the word came, ““All aboard!” and we were‘soon on our way homeward bound, and where we arrived in due* time.! All agree that it was the most pleasant trip of: the season. . . 5 :

Too much cannot be said in praise of the committee who managed this excursion and who spared neither expense nor pains in the arrangement and carrying out of a programme that would make it pleasant and enjoyable for all. Sauffice it to say, the excursion was a grand success, netting:to the M. E. Church of this place $350. -

—So numerous are the cases of ‘burglaries committed during the latter part of last week that we cannot undertake to enumerate them all. The following is a fpartial' report: Jesse L. Dunning was robbed of $3O worth of wearing apparel ; Mrs. Heffner, of Rochester, of from $ll to $l3 in cash; E. J. Dodge of $3 or $4 in silver and a quantity of crackers; a laborer in the employ of Owen Davis, west of Buttermilk, of $2.50 in: cash; Francis Cunningham, four miles westof town, pair boots and pants. David Loy had his pockets picked to the amount of $150; John Addis of $ll, Mrs. Abr. Pancake of $5. We cannot undertake to state how many vietims were fleeced out of their greenbacks by those cunning gamblersyin the tent. ~Tn trying to preserve the peace, Marshal Browand, of Xendallville, was set upon last- Monday by several roughs. 2following Forepaugh’s circus. One of these villains struck Browand with a stone in the back of the head, knocking him down and : inflicting such injuries that he had to be ‘carried home in an ‘insensible condition. His recovery was despaired of; but according to, latest accounts it is believed that the Marshal will survive. The offender was arrested at Water-: 100, on Tuesday, and brought back to Kendallville, together with three others who were participants. It is to be hoped that the villains will be vigorously prosecuted. ° e —The side show, or gambling tent, connected with Forpaugh’s circus vietimized a number of persons at South Bend, Elkhart, Goshen, Ligonier and Kendallville. As high as $2OO were gobbled from a smgle individual. A Mr. Ott, of South Bend, was euchered out of $BO, but succeeded (by follow-. ing the scamps to Goshen) in recovering $7O. At Kendallville the scamps were compelled to disgorge $5O. .
