mﬁ% Ey of last week an excur‘sion came from Kalamazoo, Mich. 1t ‘Was gotten up by the firemen of that place and arived here about 11 o'clock, A. 3. They were a jolly set of fellows, ‘both male and female. The day was ‘warm, and when the train arrived a large number of the passengers were as dry as a powder horn. They broke for the different saloons like mtf ‘horses and imbibed freely. They we: destitute of a band, but to make up the deficiency they had a gleer £lifd which seemed to be continually ol duty. - Pan O’Connell’s beer garden seemed to be the center of attraction, and the reeeipts of the instivution must have béen quite gratifying to the proprietor. ‘Dancing at the park hall was kept up during the entire day.— The boat races and sack races, &c., did not come off as per programme, but in lieu thereof one or more of the b’hoys were decorated with artificial snoots. This excursion differed materially in point of character from those which have preceded it from Kalamazoo. - On Wednesday came the excursion from Logansport, Ind. Seven coaches well filled. This excursion brought with it three bands of music, one.from North Manchester, the South Whitley band, and the Churubusco band. We did not have the privilege of mixing much with the crowd or to witness the musicial entertainment, but all seemed to enjoy themselves hugely. With this excursion came the respected correspondent of THE BANNER at Columbia City, O. N, Ward. He is full of life and full of hope; full of musicand full of fun. He spent a portion of his time sailing on one of our propellers ahd would have had a splendid time bathing in the lake, had it not been for the interference of female visitors. Come again, O. N,, and we will have policemen stationed to keep off female interference. >

On Thursday came Father Matthews’ total abstinence society of Fort Wayne. With it came a band of niusic. -It was apparent to all that this crowd differed materially from the one from Kalamazoo on Tuesday. Sevyn coaches that were attached to the train were filled to a perfect jam. Superintendent. O’Rourke accompanied this excursion and remained during the entire stay. They had a general gobd time in dancing, boat-riding, crogueting, &e. Dan O'Connell’s beer gatden was not extensively patronized on this occasion, but _a few of the boys ‘who came along would occasionally. slip in and try a glass of lager; but of course these were only outside members. & = On Friday the Methodist and Baptist Sunday schools and church members of Wolcottville had a pic-nic on the island. With them came the Wolcottville band which discoursed some very fine music. This band has lately been uniformed and now presents a very respectable appearance. Seemingly all enjoyed themselves and had a‘geod time: _: On Saturday last a sad aceident occurred here which caused great excitement for the time being and spread a gloom over our village. The particulars of the accident we herewith copy from the F't. Wayne Sentinel: . “A party of young gentlemen from Fort Wayne went to Rome City this morning, and shortly after their arrival there William D. Boag, one of their mumber, went bathing in the lake with some of his companions, and getting beyond his depth, was drowned.. His fellows made every effort to rescue him, but in vain. The corpse was recovered in forty minutes and arrived in the city at 3:50 this afternoon. The deceased was a machinist emplo?d in the Pittsburg shops and boardéd with his father, William G. Boag, Esq., 'at No. 65 West Lewis street. He was about 20 years of age, unmarried, a member of the First Presbyterian church, and highly esteémed by all who knew him. This is the first case of drowning at Rome City this season.” ke We will add to the above by saying that this is the first case of drowning in our lake for three years past. Agreeably to previous notice given, Rev. John Paul Jones, of Lagrange, preached at the park last Sunday at 1014 o’clock, A. M. A congi‘egatiop of about six to eight hundred persons were in attendance to hear him. The best of order prevailed. He was listened to by the large audience with almost breathlesssilence. His text was, “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God ahd his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” His discourse was purely practical, delivered with power, and was well received by the congregation. Prof, Abraham’s choir was in attendance and played its part well. The members thereof deserve the thanks and kind reg'arils of the community. The meeting, the preaching and the singing “Pro"fedL |

< A load of large, nice ripe Early Rose potatoes appeared on our streets on ‘Monday morning, but a small portion of which found sale at 40 cents per bushel. e : S ;

A long-haired looney inflicted himself upon the audience on Sunday last, af the end of Rev. Jones’ sermon, and “bored” the aundience with trying to read an essay upon the crucifixion of Christ. To be bored in that manner after hearing an elegant sermon approximates very closely to an outrage, At the drowning of William Boag on ‘Saturday last nearly all the row boats were called into requisition. The drowning took place on the eastern shore, opposite to, and about one-half mile from town. As soon as the alarm was given everybody rushed to the lake, and as fact as a boat could be loosened it was manned and started, 50 the same presented the appearance of general boat race, . ~ Arrangements have been made to have a band tournament here some 4ime’soon. About $3OO #ﬁm out in prizes. ‘There will be from twenty to fifty bands presentand com*3#%@%@ Wi hateiitor, L e et Py *‘%s‘ sk sl el i

We expected him here on the Fourth to. deliver our oration and it was'not until a day or two before the Fourth that we received a letter from his secretary, stating that he would probably not be home in time to come—the Kendallville Standard to the contrary notwithstanding, . : ‘ : } New corn is now being very generally introduced in our town. - Indications are that we will soon have plenty of cholera-morbus, &c.

e e O ittt AL SPARTA ITEMS. . Health in this vicinity is. good at present. sl R The farmers have all their wheat in stack and in the barns. There has been no threshing done in this neighborhood yet except Wm. Schlabach, who threshed something over seven hundred bushels last week, and has a large crop to thresh yet. ‘ - We were in attendance at the grove meeting near Wolf Lake, on Sunday last, at 10 o’clock. - The meeting was not as well attended as we expected it would be. Elder Lane, the advent minister, was present and addressed the people. He intended to speak about the European war in the afternoon, believing that to be a fulfillment of one of the last prophesies mentioned in the Secriptures. . We did not attend in the afternoon for fear that he would preach the world to an end before we got home to see our family. Joseph Miller informs us that he made fifty-one large loads of hay off twenty acres of land. How is that for high ? . Orlando Kimmell has over 100 head of cattle on his farm at the present time, 84 cf that number being steers. We had intended to attend the show at Elkhart until we saw George Priest perform in Wm. Hitler’s oats field while after a rat. There were several others engaged in the chasé, but they all halted and gazed at George, won= dering why he acted so strange, throwing himself in all shapes imaginable, just like an India rubber man. Then we observed a large hornet’s nest right where he jumped over the fence, that accounted for all. The rat escaped, but we saw enough of tumbling tolast us all summer.

. Dr. Ohlwine, of Noblesville, made us a visit a few days ago for the purpose of gathering some cherries. The Doctor makes a very good appearaqce on a cherry tree, but he says he is clear out of his element, and that he is better calculated to put them to their intended destination at the table. The Swan correspondent of the Kendallville Standard goes out of the way to make the undignified and:uncalled~ for observation that he did “not think there was a man in Swan township mean enough to act as correspondent for THE BANNER.” This insolent remark is not only an insult to the publisher of THE BANNER, but also to the numerous correspondents who take pleasure in sending their contributions: to this widely-read and justly popular journal, and should be resented ‘by them. Although differing with Mr. Stoll politically, we have never yet had occasion to regret writing for the*paper over which he presides, having always been treated by him with fairness and in a gentlemanly manner.— thsoever the writer of that offensive pa.raigraph may be, we can inform him that such ebullitions are not appreciated by a discerning and fair-minded public. It smacks too much of the production of an ill-mannered booby or narrow-minded numb-skull who conceives it to be his duty to coarsely assail and villify everybody who may differ with him in politics or anything else. Such fellows are much better suited for scavengers than newspaper correspondents. - . 'MAREK.

The camp-meeting held by the Sev-enth-Day Adventists last Sunday was a pleasant affair. The grove at the south partof town, owned by Mr, Karr, was nicely seated.- A beautiful stand was erected. Said stand was nicely 'decorated with boquets of flowers, and ornamented by green ,béughs,“ nicely carpeted, and furnished with a table whose fine spread and blooming Aowers served as a pulpit. At the right and left of the preacher, at the back of ‘the stand, facing the congregation, were fastened two nicely-carved brackets on which stood fine boquets of fresh flowers. Between these, nicely | framed, was the motto “Welcome.” -On the stand in front of the' speaker, just aboye his head, was a fine motto which read, “Preach the Word.” The ‘whele affair was simply grand, and ‘showed the skill and taste of theladies JEWoleEme > - - The sermon in the forenoon was. from Gal. 81; 29, In the afternoon from Dan. 11th chapter, showing the latter portion brings to view the present European war.

' = A little girl, daughter of Mr. Mapen, living on the Metz farm, met with a very serious accident. yegterday which ‘may prove fatal. It seems that inthe absence of her mother the child sat upon the stove hearth. Her clothing immediately caught fire when she ran out info the open air. Her mother appearing on the scene she tried to catch her, but the little one, being frightened, eluded her grasp, and when finally caume clothing wasalmost burned off Avhile her body was burned to a crisp. Dr. Smith was summoned but he thinks she can not live. [The child died on Saturday last and was buried on Sunday.—Ep.] *A friend of mine in making a visit to Sturgis, Mich., speaks in flattering terms of the beautiful country. .He says that the corn in that section is growing rapidly and the prospects are that they will have roasting ears in a few days. - The fly worked on the ‘wheat and caused it to be mowed down like hay, in consequence of which there will not be mugh ofa crop. He also reports that he made the round trip of 102 miles in 14 hours. The Salem Union Sabbath School contemplate holding a concertin about six weeks at which time Rey. A. R. Smith and Rev.J.Shaffer, of ngrange, will be present. All are invited to attend. (July 21.) ; EDb.

We are strictly opposed to any unlawfulness, and think it is just and right.to punish any who violate our laws; yet we think the prosecutions have been commenced by some who have doneas unlawful things, and in our estimation it is for political capital.
