—Wide Awake for September is at hand. - It is just that kind of a publication which ought to be placed in the hands of all the juveniles of America. ; E

i —Political excitement ran highin \d\’zxyne township last Saturday,‘ ambng‘ the republican brethren. A great deal of bitter feeling was manifested against Messrs. Kimmel and Teal, we are told. Co DT ,

. —On Wednesday of last week, while G. P. Kraeger was out buying cattle, hre called at the residence of Ed. McEachran, 2 miles south of IndianVillage,and while passing through the fields in company with Mr. McEachran, heard -a singular noise, whieh, upon investigation, proved to be a common sized frog in the act of swallowing a mouse. The frog had succeeded in swallowing about onehalf the mouse. The above gentlemen are ready to certify to the truthfulness of this statement.’ g

~ —Gen. E. M. Lee, of New York, addressed a fair audience in KXKann’s

Hall last Friday evening in support of ITayes and Wheeler. As we were not personally in attendance, we are not in, a position to'express an opinion of the General’s ‘oratorical -effort. Democrats who heard him, pronounée his speech & weak effort, so far: as arguments are concerned; while most of the, Republicans with whom we have conversed say that the General is a fine speaker and that he made some good points. A ILiberal pronounces the General’s’ effort at belittling the reform achievements of ‘.AGov. Tilden as silly twaddle, and gives it as his belief that nothing was developed that would induce independent voters to “entlms’e” for the Cincinnati nominees. e

'ROME CITY ITEMS. - In proportion to population, Rome City gives employment to more hands than any town in the county. The ‘Woolen Mills employ between twentyfive and thirty persons; Jones’ sawmill gives employment to a dozen: or more, and theice business has kept quite a number at work all summer. Notwithstanding all this, in a town of three hundred inhabitants, business is remarkably dull. How must it be in other places which have no employment_whatever for their daily laborers. 3 PW s :

We learn from the Kendallville Standard that our water cure establishment has “busted.” This is an item of news to the Romanites which they will be slow to believe. Although Doctor Wilson i out and gone, Doctor Yarnell still holds forth, and the institution i$ now ready to operate; and Esq. Dixon’s water works fre in splendid condition. v

~ Rome City turned out her quota of truly loyal politicians on Friday last to the county convention. They returned full of enthusiasm and felt fully satisfied that the county is perfectly safe. ; : ‘Our mail on Saturday evening last was all carried past and Rome had no ‘mail from the south. The excuse was that the mail méssenger. was sick. This has happened so frequently that we - hope some change may be made whereby ‘we can get a ‘healthy agent on this route. ; 7

- E. H. Fisher, of the Woolen Mills, made a flying visit to Chicago last week and purchased about 8,000 Ibs. of fine wool. L .

The Republicans had their convention on:'Friday last and the usual number of defeated “sore ones” appear on the roll. Kendallville especially is having a beautiful game of grumbling. For the benefit of those desiring to know, we will say that the Independent Greenback movement is progressing. We are informed by what we eonsider good authority that county conventions will be held as follows: At Lagrange, August’ 31st; Albion;, Noble county, September 2d; Goshen, Elkhart county, September sth; Warsaw, Kosciusko county, September Tth; Plymouth, Marshall county, September 9th; Auburn, DeKalb county, September 12th, at which time a full: greenback ticket will be put in thé' field. And a cengressional convention will be held at Kendallville about the 27th of September, at which time there will be-a grand rally and an-ad-dress by Gen. Carey, the Independent Greenback candidate for Vice-Presi-dent, and who is siid to bé one of the finest speakers of the present day. *

Two or three weeks more will cléan out the ice business in Rome for the present season. One more house and a small fraction of another remains to be shipped. ‘ !

Watermelons,” muskmelons; green corn, and echolera morbus are rather plenty for comfort these times. - - H. 6. Cobbs has got moved inte his new brick residence. Things look very comfortable about the premises. .

Doctor Covert is one of those on the sick roll. When again on duty he will be better prepared to sympathize with his -patients. : sl The greenbackers around here think that Doc. J. W. Wyland, of Ligonier, would make a first-class Sheriff, and it the Doctor is not too modest to consent he can easily be elected. = | ~Johnny Boughman was nominated by the Republicans tor re-election:to the office of Recorder on Friday last. The woman suffrage plank in the platform was totally ignored. Now we will see what the Democracy will do on Friday next. Should they adopt the same policy, then let Fanny ‘Worden’s next friend step to the front, take the greenback nomination, and be elected by a goud round majority. Johnny Houston has sold over three hundred'smoothing irons in Ft. Wayne since April. THe has made a nice thing out of it. CEr i | Hon. 0. D. Willett, 'of Kendallville, was elected' to the Legislature two years ago on the greenback pilatform. ‘While a member of the Legislature he voted for and sent J. E. MecDonald (a notorious hard money man) to the U. S, Senate. "Now, what the Greenbackers most want is tolet Mr. Willett remain at home until he learns that principle iszworth contending for. {HHow sadly mistaken you, are Mr. Willett was elected on the ! hardest ' kind of'a hard money platform—one that repudiated the State platform. Mr. Willett. simply obeyed. the expressed will of his constituents by voting as he did.—Ep. BANNERI] "1 % As we prophesied some time ago, the remains of the Rome City Review were a few days ago transferred to “Wolcottville, where (we are told) the. most strenuous efforts are being put’ forth to try and resuscitate it. But thus far the efforts have been unayail‘ing. It was thought at one time that it was so far revived that you: could ‘hear it (as it'did in its dying moments in Rome) whisper H-a-y-e-s & Wheeler, but it is doubtful whether it can really be brought to a living thing or not. The Romanites-think that the editor ought to be prosecuted for infanticide, but are willing to turn the | matter over to our little pious sister; Wolcottville—scarcely being able to l:tell whether the joke is on the Wolcottyille Gazette or the town of Wolcottyille. " 20t i s Our citizens were treated ‘to some very choice music by the Woleottville Band a few evenings ago. All on a surprise, the noble steeds of David Jennings came marching into town under the immediate guidance of David himself,while an impromptu wagon, prepared for the ‘purpose, safely carried the juvenile band hefore spoken of. After making a short eircuit around town, discoursing most excellent music, they repaired for a short time to the island and there played a few pieces and tjhﬁniretumed ‘home. We are compelled. to say that this ‘young band ig second to none.in' the country, and bids fair to make their mark in the fature. . v v s

~ D. H. Perew, Esq., of Wolcottville, is spoken’ of as Prosecuting Attorney on the Democratie ticket for this District. Mr. Perew is a young man fall of energy and ability, and would no doubt make a good officer. ~ 'We commend him to the Democracy for their favors. . big o s o A Greenback Club has been formed in Brimfield. - ST } R
