Weather Report of 1876.

Through the kindness of Capt. J. E. Braden, who is, probably, the most careful and attentive observer in this section. of the country, we are enabled to present the readers of THE BANNER with the following! very' interesting facts concerning the state of the weather during the year 1876; as, al= so, the moftality ‘of our town during the same period: -i : ; A © January Ist was clear and pleasant as a summer’s day, with a balmy breeze ‘trom the west; temperature, 58° in the morning, 76° at noon and 66° in the evening. The average temperature for the menth of January was, morning, 28°; noon, 38°; evening, 3415, Beveral farmers weré plowing in this vieinity on the first ot January—something that does not often happen in our latitude. July 7th was the hottest day of the year; thermometer 100 1n the shade. Dec. 9th was tifecoldest day ; the thermometerstood ‘at 14° below zero in the morning and rose to 8° in the evening. July was the warmest month of the year; average temperature— Morning, 6635°; noon, 83°; . evening 84° December was the coldest month; average temperature, aboye zero,—morning, .11°; noon, 2415°; evening, 17°. . ~ The prevailing winds were from the ‘south-_west. There were during the year 132 clear days, 111 cloudy days, 79 days that rain fell and 44 days that snow fell. The amount of snow-fall was 64 inches. The Captain has no-means- of estimating the 'tiainfall. ; |

Sixteen deaths occured in:Ligenier during 1876—14 from disease and two from accident. This shows a very low. rate of mortality—a. little over one-half of 1 per cent., the population being about 2,200. Mr. Braden promises at some future time to give us other interesting facts in regard to his observations upon this subject, .and which, we are sure, will be of in‘terest to our readers. S

ROME CITY ITEMS.

° On Tuesday night of last week the Juveniles from the county seat visited our town on a grand sleighride. They numbered’ about twenty souls, male and female, and early in the evening “fetched «up” at Capt. E. H. Fisher’s, who provided them with an oyster supper and a grand jubilee. Ede says their juvenile sports were very harmless and almost as interesting as a traveling cireus. About nine o’clock the word “march!” was given, when all departed for the Hub—a set of young and merry hearts. ! ' ‘

- On Wednesday of last week Mr. F. ‘W. Shinke and a number of others tfrom Ligonier made our town a sleigh- ! ride vigit. After an hour or two in visiting and receiving a beautiful string of shad, they mounted the sleigh, took the reins and their dashing steeds started with lightning speed for Ligonier:. =

The splendid. sleighing for sometime past has brought many visitors to our town. ' We noticed on Tuesday last our oid friend Alf Cochran, who was making his friend Geo. Hamilton, of our tewn, a visit. : :

Our genteel druggist, Mr. D. 1. Hibbard, has sold his stock of drugs, medicines, &c., to Charley Williams and Father. The Williams firm will continue the drug business at the old stand, and Mr. Hibbard has become so attached to Rome City’'that he will remain with us, for the time being, at least. : ~ : :

The L. 0. G. Ts,, or a select portion of that order, had a sort of private festival at Constable Elston’s on Monday night la'st. Presume they had a good time and a happy new year. The last explanation of the above initials we have heard is “I Often Got Tight.” Our turkey, we, K mean the ‘turkey which bled, the turkey which fell b§ our hands on Christmas day, was nurtured and raised on the farm "of Geo. Brothwell. 1t was an old and intimate acquaintance of C. 1. Watson, Esq., book-keeper at the Rome City ‘Woolen Mills. This veritable turkey received food from Charley’s hand when he was a granger. Charley was present when that turkey made its final exit, and was heard to exclaim, in a low tone of voice, “All is well that ends well; peace to thy ashes.” The fellows called Pedro, Efichre, Poker, and all of that family, have entirely disappeared from Rome C(lty. Where they have located, and what they are doing, nobody knows and nobody cares. i . Zopher Case, John Sherman and ‘others, from Wright’s corners, made Deacon Highbargin a sleigh-ride visit on Wednesday of last week. Welooked for Ote Grannis, but he. was nowhere to be found. .Ot¢ is John Sherman’s right bower and §oluetlling terrible must have befallen him or he would surely have ‘been along. If any one wishes to be made supremely happy, all e has to do is to make the above gents a visit and if he don’t get the worth of his money he needn’t pay a cent. -If sleigh-riding continues a few weeks longer we think we shall trysit. - : Bl e Neighbor Shumway’s son, who got wounded in the chest at Kendallville a few days ago, is doing well and will soon be as well as ever. He will perhaps have a scar and may perhaps not have quite so much cheek as he used to have, but he has doubtless come to the conclusion that he can see: just as well and stand -a little further off and will perhaps practice it'in the future. S B

Since the year one up to the present date, there has never -been better Slaighieg i vuvvor weather to enjoy it in than there has been for several ‘weeks past, and at the present writing there is no visible signs of its departure. .Indeed, the sleighing is so good there' is: no possible: chance for improvement. » If it was any better it wouldin’t do at all. ~ ; The Rome City Woolen Mills commenced ranning the first of May last and closed on the 25th of November (the latter portion of the time run_nihg en three-quarter time), during which period they manufactured sev-enty-eight thousand two hundred and eighty yards of jeans and flanpels, and six hundred and seventy pairs of blankets and about three -thousand pounds of yarns. - It will readily be seen that the manufacture of the above amount of goods will distribute a considerable amount of money, and in What condition would Rome City-be without this establishment? ol Quite a number of Noble ‘patriots went from here to atten_d the meeting at Albion on Saturday last. We hope now-that the country is safe and that the next war has been indefinitely postponed. ' .

Prof. Abraham’s school commenced again on Tuesday last. The holidays now being over, the students will “pitch in” with renewed energy., |

T. P. Kessler extended his New Year’s calls -as far as Bronson, Mich. T. P. thanks the powers that be that he has not the cares of a Legislatuie upon his head these war times. He made a narrow escape. Pl “Fuss and feathers”—the feather renovator failed to leave téwn as we reported last week. Business was so; “flush” that he could not leave. He wishes to do the Romanites and those! in the vicinity all the good he can while he sojourns here. = ALEXIS.

e E ——— e i 4 An Honest Medicine, ; Of all medicines caleulated to cure affections of the throat, chest and lungs, we know of none we can begin to recommend go highly as Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs, Colds, Asthma, Bronechitis, Hoarseness, Tickling in the Throat, loss of voice, &ec. It does positively cure, and that where everything else has failed. No mediciné can show one half so many positive and permanent cures as have already been wrought by this wonderful remedy. For the Asthma and Bronchitis it is a perfect.specific, curing the worst cases in ‘the shortest time possible. We would say by all means give it a‘trial. These doses will relieve the worst case.

All who are afflicted with chronic maladies, who have been duped by ignorant pretenders, imposed upon by quack nostrums, should lose no time in consulting Drs. Price and Brewer, whom time has tested as having ability and skill. 5 oo L They. have made their visits regularly for years and will be again at Ligonier, Ligonier House, Wednesday, the 10th of January. . =

NEW YFAR GREETING

The old yule-10-g at Christmas time has ceased to smolder and the good time of “peacc on earth and good will to man” has been said by a free distribution of présents from fruitful Christmas trees, and we l)égin to breathe freely, when the heart again begins to palpitate; our good old centennial fa.t‘hvér, 1876, is dying. Yes, a sad tear wells up in our. eye, for dear ones haye left, and we see nothing in the future but tears. The hour of triting this item 18 10 o’clock A. M. of Ja_nuary Ist, 1877, and we wish all the correspondents of TriE BANNER a happy New Year, also the editor and family health, long life and prosperity.

VY(')H Lan ata we suo cne’ meteor? No, we did net; but we felt and heard it. We also noted the Striking effect it produced on some people; some it struck sensible, and one-man was so forcibly struck that he said next day to his wife, in tender- tones, “Let us go sleigh-riding this evening, for perhaps we shall not always live to enjoy life together.” = 'We opine that wife has been wishing for rieteors to visit us, often. pa i :

We noticed yesterday at the foot of Albion street a'low, wopden building, and upon inquiry found it occupied by one Commodore Flower, whose first name is Thomas, and over the door, in large black lefters upon a white back-ground, the inscription, “Unecle Tom’s Cabin.” ~lndeed, how clever! You walk in and Uncle Tom helps you to a mug of lager beér, or anything you wish to make you warm these cold days, and it is such an innocent little place, you know. We wonder if he had any little Eva, a guardian angel, to read to him out of the Bible, like the original Uncle Tom of whom Harriet B. Stowe wrote in her book ? o L

The German Baptists are holding a protracted meeting in their new brick church near this' place. . Rev. Calvert, of this place, assisted by Rev. Dr. Sturgis, of South Bend, is preaching, and as we listened to Dr. Sturgis we were reminded of some. inspired prophet, so refined and silvery were his words, and so long and silvetry his white locks, and as he talked he wept. We hope to hear him again. ; ‘ Thanks to “Alexis” for his religious report from Rome City especially for my benefit. But lam sorry they have preaching at dinner time; of. course that would keep people from church. A grand family -_meet»ing'took place last Friday at the home of Reason Franks, just cast of Wawaka. Niae children were present—seven noble sons and two daughters. ' The father and mother, who live in Albion, were also present. They are about 75 years of age, and the old gentleman tells the sad story of his life for several years with the Indians. He now thinks he will attend the Franks’ re-union next August, in Ohio, if helives. We are happy tosay there have been ne deaths or marriages near here of late. Indications look a little like weddings, but then we can’t most always sometimes tell. ~ = Our young people were all invited to the residence of J. J. Kox last Friday evening.

~ So nearly perfect are the reccipts of these wonderful pain soothing and healing Centaur Liniments, that we can coufidentially say they will alleviate any paim arising from flesh, bone or musc'e derangements. We do not pretend that. they will mend a broken leg 0. exterminate ‘beoils, but even in such cases they will reduee the inflammation and stop the pain. Nor can we guarantee the proper resnlts where the body is poisoned by whisky. Temperance is as nec¢essary to a proper physical, as mental condition. % o : The White Centaunr Liniment i§particalarly adapted to all cases of Rheumatisin, Lumbago, Neuralgia, Erysipelas, Itch, Sprains Ch?]!blains. Cuts, Bruises, Stings, Poisons, Scalds, Sciatica, Weak Back, Pains in the Side.. Wouands, Weeping Sinews, Burns,, Frosted Feet, Palsy, Ear-ache, Tooth-ache, Head-ache, Ulcers, Old Sores, Broken Breasts, Sore Nipples, Sore Throat, Croup, Diptheria, &c, The most of these com pljints the Centaur Liniment will cure; all of ‘them it will benefit.” It will eXTrace INeé puvi“som from bites and stings, and will care burns and sealds withont ascar. The following is but a sample of a thousand similar testimonialg: | A~TroOH, liL., Dec. 1. 1874, My wife has, fora long time, been a terrible sufferer from Rheumatism | She has tried many phxsiciqus and many remedies. "The only thingf which bhas given her relief is Centaur Liniment. ‘am rejoiced to say this has cured her. wii o W. H. RING, Postmaster. It is an indisputable fact that the CentaariLinit ments are performing enres mever before effeeted by any preparation in existence—like Chronic Rheumatism of thirty years’standing, straightening fingers and joints which had, been stiff’ for six.years, taking the soreness from burns, &c. 2 : One dollar, or even fifty cents, invested in Centaur Liniment will be within reach when an acgident eccurs, and will do more good than any amount of money, paid for medical attendance. ‘k’hen physicians are called they frequently usé this Liniment;, .and of course charge several prices for it. : - ok

The Yellow Centaur Liniment is adapted fp ‘the tough skin, muscles and .flesh of the animal creation. Its efiects upon severe cases of Spavin, Sweeny, Wind:Gall; Big-Head-and Poll-Evil, are little less than marvelous.

]fi;lessrs. J. McClure & Ce., Druggists, ‘cor. Eim an@ Front Sts:, Cincinnati, 0., says: Lol

I’n our neighboroood a number of teamsters are nsing the Centaur Liniment. They ‘pronounce it superior to anvthing they have ever used. We gell as high as four to five dozen bottles per month to pwners of horses and mules. - . I'e have volumes of testimonials deseribing cures. of Sprains, Kickg, Galls, Poll-Evil, Big‘Head, and Founders, ‘which are little less than ms{rvcls. No owner of an animalcan afford to be ‘without a bottle of Centsur Lini’t’ngnt, which any day may prove worth twenty times its costs. ! $Ol3 everywhere, but prepared only at the- - Laboratory of J.

Castoria!

Cross, sickly 'babies and children may enjoy heaith, and smothers have res'l;'fi' they will use Castoria. Worms, teething,- wind colic, sour gtomach and undigested food make children cross and produces sickness, Castoria will assimilate the food, expel worms, and correct all these things. For 20 years Dr. Pitcher experimented in his private practice to produce an cfl'eci[ve cathartic and stomach reguiator which would be as effective 8s Cnél»br oil, without its unpleasant taste or récoil.. 3 5 i

The reputation of his' experiment extended. Physiciaps and nurses rapidly adopted his re~ dy, to which he gave the naw--=wnstoria, ' Ongbanks e pieasant to take as homey, regulates the stomach and bowels. and'does not gripe. It is adapted to all ages, contains no alcohol, and is absorutely harmless to the most tender infant. e :
