Underour law governing the assessment of personal property, in a great many instances, the same representative value is twice'assessed and the substantial result is, a double tax is paid on the same article. TFor instance: A sells B a horse, and pays him by giving his note. When the Assessor comes around he will assess the horse in the possession of B,and the note in the possession of A, thus assessing each one with the full value of -the horse. This is'manifestly unjust, for the law does not contemplate the double assessment of any article. A man may possess $lO,OOO worth of property and owe for one-half of it. He is really worth but $5,000, but has to pay tax on the full $lO,OOO. We hope that the Legislature of 1879 will consider this matter and make such amendments as that a’ man will be liable for taxation only on the excess of his means, including credits of every description, over his indebtedness.— Vincennes Sun.

KENDALLVILLE LOCALS. o e bt L Since everybody is going to run on his own hook,a good deal of privatecaucusing and button-holing is going on in our city. This will probably have the effect of bringing out a pretty full vote next Tuesday. . = _ The caucus last Satupday was: too ‘numerous, elaborate, voluminous, exhaustive, &ec., &c., to enable or justify an -attempt at detailing its deliberations:’ All I can say is, that everybody is at liberty to construct his own tick‘et and vote for whom he pleases. ! A visit to some of our churches demonstrates one thing, viz: The unfor'tunate female who has no new spring bonnet to exhibit doesn’t rush up to the. front pew in church as much as .she did, but slips in quietly, takes a back seat, and when the congregation ‘ rises to sing “Peace troubled soul,”’she very deliberately assumesa perpendicular position, and for the first time in her life she seems to bein sympathy ‘with the sentiment so pathetically expressed by thesacred muse. : The many friendsof A.C.F.Wich‘man have quietly decided that he shall ‘run for Mayor instéead of being a can‘didate for City Clerk. Mayor Graves’ friends, however, acting upon the “let-well-enough-alone” policy, -are 'making a vigorous effort to secure his triumphant re-election; while ’Squire ‘Wakeman’s friends,—and they are'not few,—are by no means resting on their oars. There is one consolation in this triangular contest—they are all goodv men, and the election of either will ‘secure the city the services of a competent Hfficer.

- Ep. BANNER:—We are in a strange land amongst strangers, and it seems. tg me it would be quite honie-like if we had THeE BANNER to look oyer and see what the Hoosiers are doing. ‘ We have been in the State but two weeks, and the prairie winds haye tanned us so that the people recognize us as “Pukes.” As yet lam not sorry that I left Indiana. We all like the country real well. I have purchased 120 acres off'as good land, I think, as there is between the Atlantic and Pacific, for which I paid $22 per acre. It containg tolerable fair improvements, includiflg a nice orchard of 100 apple trees and about the same number of peachand cherry trees. The only thing I have to regret isthat I have not got money enough to I\Quy‘ all the land I can see when I stand on my own farm.

George Brumbaugh bought 80 acres at $lB per acre. It is just as good land as.mine,'but is not quite so well improved. Fe * Thee is plenty of good water in the country, and yon can take your ci&oice between raising stock and fafrming, for either of which occupations there are plenty of good paying chances. The people generally consist of Hoosiers and Buckeyes, with a fair sprinkling of colored individuals, Raw prairie land, that is considered worth anything, sells at prices ranging from $5 to $l2 per acre, Improved land sells at $lO to $3O per acre. . - P SAMUEL K.

Of all medicines calculated to care affections of the throat, chest. and lungs, we know of none we cun begin to recommend so highly as Dr. King’s New Discovery for consumption, coughs, colds, bronchitis, hoarseness, asthma, tickling in the throat, loss of voice, &e. It does positively cure, and that where everything else has failed. No' medicine 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, eyring the worst cases in the shortest time poggible. We would say by all means give it .a trial, - Three doses will relieye the worst cage.

~ ALBION RUMMAGES. ~ Hark, do you not hear it? No,’tis but tho kine or the mulo bellowing in thasﬁgxw&h - Buthark! that tuneful sound strikes in once more as if the town cats had got in/a fight, and nearer, clearér, deadlier than before, it is, it is the boys serenading at the door. And so it proved, for very soon sweet melodies floated' out upon'the dewy air to the consolating words of—- | ; L Pull down your vltst, | 4 Wi;:»e‘off your chin; Hi ; Don’t be a fooling love, 0 : That is too thin. bt And at the end of each verse they played a little tune, but what the tune was none could tell. But the charming music reverted our thoughts to the nicely applying words of the “man who ran” when he said, “were you even as the young man Absalom ijs.” The citizens of Albion are beginning to deeply feel the néed of a calabose for the benefit of thase who get “loose.” Last week two such characters were brought to the jail and admitted, a thing not pleasant for the old residents. of that place. Last Saturday evening six young ladies of Albion, viz: “Ada Worden, Lulie Prickett, Lillie Haney, Hatty Eagles, Ada Rapp and Lillie Lemmon serenaded the prisoners’ in jail with charmingly sweet music. Those little ladies are excellent singers, and we forward to them the many thanks of the prisoners, and also invite them to come again. : We beg pardon: from our readers, and will now make amendments for not having already told them that the wheat is in a fine and flourishing con: dition, and that from present appearances we may expect a Wwheat crop never surpassed in this county. : The new barn at the jail is painted red, and we believe, is now completed. From the inside arrangement of the barn we could never have believed that the planners thereof were farmers; but through the never-failing veracity of the people of Albion we must submit. Fi { Again we must take sides with our cows. In the first place we must, with regret, own that we live in a “clay-capped” town, and for that reason implore the sympathy of “New Leaf” and others. Now what are rights when one hasn’t the means to stand by them? Of course we have a right to procure feed for our cows, but not the “sand;” consequently can not avail Aourseres of ~those high rights., No, brother “New Leaf,” take not the food from out thy horses moutl, that ours may flourish, but sow-abundantly, so’ that you may reap abundantly, and thereby replenish the marrow in our cows’ Uones. : g

It seems that the gate in the front yard lhzicl!beell left opeun, and some one passing along the street closed it, the noise of which set the dog within the house to barking, making considerable noise, and rushing up stairs awakened the inmates, who at or.ce jumped at the conclusion that the premises had heen invaded by burglars, and that all would be murdered—hence the rush and fearful outery. “Shoot that dog!” S Mrs. Wright, wife of Mr. Matthew Wright, living 124 miles south of this place, died on Sunday evening last at 6 o’clock.

Thousands will bear testimony (and doit voluntarily) that Vegeline is the best medical compound yet placed before the public for renovating and purifying the blood, eradicating all humors, impurities. or poisonous secretionsfrom thé system, invigoratiug and strengthenicg the system debilitated by disease: in fact, it is, as many have called it; “*The Great Health Restorer.” SAFE AND SURE. Mg. H. R. STEVENS.: e In 1872 yoar Vegetine was recommended, to me, and yielding to tne persuasions of a friend, I consented to try it. At the time, I was suffering fiom general debility aud nervous prostrations, superinduced by oyerwork and irregular habits, llts wonderful strengthening and curative properties seemed to aflect” my debilitated system from the first dose, and ander its persistent nse I rap_idlg recovered, gaining more than nsual health and good feeling. Since then 1 have not hegitated to give Vegetine my most unqualified indorsement as being a safe, sure and powerfu] agent in promoting health and restoring the wasted system’ to new life and energy. Vegetine is the only med~ | icine I use, and as long as I live I never expect to find & better. Yours truly, 4 ! W, H. CLARK, " 120 Montery Street, Allegheny, Pa. VEGETINE.

Hype PAR&. Mass., Feb. 15, 1876. Mz. H. R. Srevens: Dear Sir—About 10 years ago my health failed throagh the depleting effects of 'dyspepsia, nearly a year later I was attacked by typhoid fever inits worst form, it settled in my back and took the form of a large deep-seated abscess.! which was 15 months in gathering. I had two surgical operations, by the best skill In the State but received no permanent cure. I suffered great pain at times'and was constantly weakened by a profuse discharge. lalso lostemall pieces of/bone at different times, ) : Matters ran on thus adout seven years,till May, 1874./ when a friend recommended meto go to your oﬂige and talk with you on the virtue ‘Ol’Veg:

etine, 1 did so, and by your Kkindness passed through your mannfa¢tory, noting the ‘ingredients, etc., by which your remedy is produced. By what I saw and heard I gained some confidence in Vegetine, e

I commenced taking it soon after, but felt worse. from its effects; still I persevered and soon felt it was benefitting me in other respects. Yetl did not see the results I desired, till I had taken it faithfully for a little more than a year, when the difficulty-in the back was cured, arnd for Y months I have enjoyed the best of health. I have 1n that time gained twenty-five pounds of flesh, being heavier than ever before in my tife, and I was never more able to perform labor than now. R o

Daring the past few weeks 1 had a scrofulous swelling as large as my fist gzither on another part of my body. B foid I took Vegetine t‘aith[ului and it removed it level with the surface in a month. ¥ think I should have been cured of my main trouble sooner if I had taken larger doses, after having become accustomed to ils eﬂ‘ecti. o 7 Let your patrons troubled with scrofula or kidney direase understand that 1t takes time to care chronic eiseases, and if they will patiently take Vegetine, it will. in my jndgment, care them. - With great Obligations I am, ; . Yours very truly, . G. W MANSFIELD, Pagtor of the Methodist E. Church.
