—Ye Sparta township farmers,a word | toyoun: It is quite likely that none of you have succeeded in raising fortynine bushels of wheat to the acre.

- —Mrs. Electa Gage started last week on a visit to Ontario, Wayne county, New York. Sheexpects to be gone about three months, and as, to use her own language, she could not possibly get along without reading THE BANNER, she ordered her favorite paper to be sent to her present adress.

Look at our magnificent farms and their immense productions—their like is not to be found anywhere.” The professional gentleman is about correct. —Mr. J. W. Custar spoke to a large and appreciative - audience in the Christian Church, Tuesday evening, on temperance. lis narratives of misdeeds by men under the influehce of liquor made a deep impression; and his fervent appeal to young ladies to exert their influence against the use of liquor by young men was: very favorably received by the ladies generally.

—Two young men from the country arrived in this place on Tuesday afternoon with a large load of melons. Not being “wearers of the red,” they indulged in considerable “benzine,” and while under the influence of the ardent, a erowd of young boys; ercouraged by a number of older persons, confiscated wagon, melons, team and all. . The team and wagon found their way back to the rightful owner, but a goodly number of the melons had disappeared. While the young men are not to be pitied in the loss of their melons, it is not;exactly the square thing for aged persons to instruct and encourage young boys in appropriating other peoples’ property. —The prospect for a large crop of corn is exceedingly favorable. Mr. L. 8. Clayton, of Washington township, informs us that he recently passed through the counties of Whitley, Allen; Huntington, Wabash, Miami, Howard, Tipton, Hamilton, Marion, ‘Brown, Johnson, Hancock, Madison, Delaware, Blackford and Wells, and gives it as bis opinion, based upon personal investigation and observation, that the corn crop this year will prove to be one-third larger than at any preceding season. The poorest corn-fields that he noticed were those between Fort Wayne and Columbia City, The wheat crop in the above mentioned counties was not, as a general thing, equal to that 6f Noble. As for apples, Mr. Clayton thinks there -are ‘scarcely enough to supply the wants of one good-sized family, - —Judge Wood weighed his three Clydesdale colts last Saturday, with the following result: “Gov.

Our wheat buyers have. been demoralized .for the past_week. For some reason or other, they have not purchased much grain this season. Come, gentlemen; brace up. Have some snap about you. : i John Hursey exchanged his 20-acre farm, situated about 114 miles south of Cromwell, for a 60-acre farm, two miles north of Ligonier. John had a very pleasant home, but now has more land, and thinks he made a good bargain, ©+ .

The enterprising farmer who was bid $1.16 for' his wheat in our market last Friday and declined the bid, hauling it to Ligonier to procure the highest cash prices, was considerably confuddled when he was only offered $1.13 there and sold it for the same.— [There must be some mistake <about this, Mollie—Ep.]. . ° Some counterfeit currency is afloas throughout our “burg” in the shape of lead nickles and quarters that some of our idlers make and pass off unnoticed when the receiver of the same is in a hurry. Boys, remember this may prove serious pass-time; so beware, .

. Jay Hamilton and Willie Allison having procured a smalll assortment of Yankee Notions, started out through the country, to supply the busy farmer with such articles as he might need in their line of goods. They returned soon, sold out, by gum.

He sold his farm situated near Rider’s Mills, not being satisfied with this climate.. We hope” Mr, G. and family will ever meet with suecgess, also may happiriess attend their foot steps. - ‘ Milo Johnson, of Ligonier, we ars informed, has, taken the contract of building the two new brick school houses to be built in Sparta township this fall, for the snug sum of $2,990. Our new school house will soon be on the way, as the stone is now being hauled for its commencement. We understand that some rude boys from our place visited a cucumber patch of Mr. Markly’s living near the Nine Mile Lake, recently, and tore up the vines and destroyed cucumbers, vines and all.” We regret hearing such a report from our place; and are under the impression that the perpetrators of this dastardly work are inhabitants of some other clime, as we do not know where you counld find boys in our place mean enough to do such work as this.

The American Express Co. have quit operating the Chicago division of the B. & O. road and closed all its offices over this line. We have ‘not learned the cause of this very. unfortunate move, but trust some other company will soon operate this line, the discontinuance being inconveni-. ent to our grain dealers. as well as many others. The B. &O, company have organized a sort of lex: press freight company and will carry on their express trains all sorts of ex-press-freight; but will not handle currency, drafts, &c. : . Quite a number of our youths went to Albion to attend the Musical Concert of Messrs. Leslie and Kinsey. As your humble servant was among the number, I take pleasure in saying that the entertainment was in every gense of the word a glorious success. During my stay at the “hub” I was most agreeably entertained at A. J. Singrey’s and Sheriff Eagle’s. Friend “Jap” did the agreeable in his usual courteous manner.

. MANY WHO ARE SUFFERING . from the effects of the warm weather and are debilitated, and advised by physicians to take moderate amounts of whisky two or three times during the day. In alittle while those who adopt this advice frequently increase the number of “drinks”’ and in time become confirmed inebriates. A beverage which will not create thirst for intoxicating liquors, and which is intended especially for the benefit of debilitated people. whether at home or abroad, is Dr. Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic. Containiﬁgq: the juices of many medicinal herbs, this preparation does not.create an appetite for the intoxicating cup. The nourishing and the life-supporting properties of many valuable natural productions contained in it, and well known to medical men have a moststrengthening influence. A single bottle of the Tonic will demonstrate its vaicable qualities. For debility aris—ing from sickness, over exertion or from any cause whatever, a wineglass of Sea Weed Tonic taken after meals willgtrengthen the stomach and create an appetite for wholesome food. To all who are about leaving their homes, we desire to say that the excellent eftects of Dr. Schenck’s seasonable remedies, Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake. Pills, are particularly evident when taken by those who are injuriously affected by a change of water and diet, No person should leave home withoat taking a supply of these safeguards with them.
