—A York township Republican unbosomed ‘himself somewhat freely in our sanctum, receuntly, in speaking of the Hayes administration.. He gaveit as his opinion that Hayes is about the poorest apology for a President that ever occupied the White House; ‘that his Atlanta speech is an insult to every man who served in the Union army, and that the greatest misfortune that has befallen the republican party was Hayes’ inauguaration as President. The gentleman who thus expressed himself has been for years and is still a reader of the Inter-Ocean. :

Theatre at Kann’s Hall.

The Townsend Family, which will appear at Kann’s Hall, for three nights ‘only, commencing on to-morrow, Friday evening, is building up a glorious reputation for first-class acting. The press everywhere speak in glowing terms of their performances. .The following we clip from the Bryan Democrat of the 15th inst.: : “The Townsend Dramatic Troupe closed their engagement at the Opera House last evening after playing to delighted audiences for a week. ~We but express general opinion in saying that the troupe is the best one ever appeared in Bryan. In all their presentations the plays were well mounty ed, costumes rich and appropriate, and the characters true to nature, and the audience, on the several occasions, if not critical were enthusiastic and sincere. Mr, and Mrs. Harry Townsend seemed to be the special favorites, because of their versatility and thorough absence of rant and staginess. In.cur judgment Mr. Townsend appears -to best advantage in Richard 111, where his fine facial play, ‘well modulated voice and graceful gesture, particularly in the wooing scene, won the agection of the Queen and the hearty applause of the audience. - Mrs. Townsend is one of the most versatile and winsome of actresses, and a vocalist of more than usual ability. The other gentlemen and ladies composing the troupe acquitted themselves in such a way as to win the good opinion of all. The Townsends are sure of a generous welcome whenever. they shall choose tovisit Bryan >~ o

There have been but very few deaths lately in this neighborhood. i Our temperance meetings ase still being kept up, and are well attended. Rev.

* To Our Creditors. You are requested to meet at the office of I. E. Knisely, Esq,, on Saturday,. December Bth, 1877, for the purpose of making arrangements concerning the building of the dam, recegtly washed out, and attending to other important business, in which you are allequally interested.

" We learn from the Fort Wayne Gazette that the people of that city are very uneasy for fear that the dam of our reservoir is not secure. It seems to be a fact that people must always go abroad to learn the news at home. We had supposed and still think that the dam is perfectly secure. We are well aware that it caused a great deal of labor and anxietyjof mind last spring and came very near being entirely washed away, but through the almost superhuman efforts of the G. R.& L R.R.Co.and the L. 8. & M. 8 R. R. Co. (who would have been the heaviest losers in case it -had given way), it was reconstructed, pronounced safe, and lin better condition than ever before. Since the Fort Wayne papers have raised the scare, a number of interested parties have been viewing the sitnaticn and from the fact that nothing is being done and nothing: perceptibly necessary to be done, we take it for granted that it is considered secure. - ;

We are under obligations to Hon. J. H. Baker for a copy of the speech of Hon. John Hanna, of this State, on the resumption act. Every Republicanin this Congressional Distriet ought to read that speech. It is sound doctrine and like a nail in a sure place. We would cheerfully commend it to the editor of the Waterloo Press; but as the editor of the Wolcottville Gazette very appropriately remarks concerning that paper, “It is published in the interest of the Shylocks and is forced to dish up and eat crow, whether it relishes it or not,”

Our flouring mill here went into the flouring business to a limited extent. It put up and shipped one car load of flour to Portland, Maine, since which time “all is quiet on the Elkbart.” - ~ Some parties have located here from Angola, Ind., and have engaged in the manufacture of barrel hoops. They came in very quietl} and commenced operations. . We have not learned the name of the partiés or firm, but have no doubt should they persevere and advertise in THE BANNER . they will do*well. '

We are glad to recognize the old familiar fist of “Uncle Toby” in THE BANNER once more. Dear Uncle, where have you been sleeping so long ? Were your slumbers so deep that nothing but the fish law could wake you up? Rouse up, Uncle, and hit ’em agaln. . :

“«Jap” declines to speak of the Rome City dance because it is our subject.

Uncle J. D. Kerr has put a new roof upon his residence with first-class Michigan pine' shingles. When the building gets its new coat of paint it will be a beautiful residence. William Dixon, Esq., whom all supposed to be a confirmed invalid, since he has undergone treatment at our water cure, is restored, sound as adollar, and now pulls down several more pounds avoirdupois than ever before in life. - ' e

The next gigantic enterprise ofßome City will probably be to incloge and shingle thB reservoir, side it up, divide it into suitable departments, and then convert it into an immense skating rink.

. Thousands upon thousands of ringed perch have lately been and are still being caughtin our lake. They bite vigorously. They bite in all kinds of weather and every day in the week. They are gamey, and easily caught, and they are all the same size. Verily, this is the “boss” year for the ringed perch. = : Ourtown trustee has granted another teacher for our schools. Miss Vie. Jennings has been assigned to the post as teacher. Our corps of teachers are now: J.P. Abraham, J.P. Chapman, and Miss Jennings. The schools seem to be in good condition and doing well. ' The Lilliputian show at the Lake Side House on Monday night was not very largely attended. It was alittle too thin for adult persons, but it made the children laugh. The afterpiece or dance was a failure. ' Fred. Flearing’s band furnished the music. Ede Fisher’s Thanksgiving turkeys got out of the coop and strayed away. The little one' was found at neighbor Shumway’s and returned, but the gobbler still remains missing. He has probably bled. = ot ALEXIS, " Nov. 27th, 1871. -

Shoins SPARTATIEMS. | - _After along absence I again take up my pencil, and will endeavor to give the readers of TaE BANNER a few items from this place. ' . The roads are very bad at present, especially in clay soil. There they are almost impassable. Samuel Olilwine was again taken very sick last Friday. He had improved very fast from the first attack he had a few weeks ago, and we think ‘he went to work a little too soon. The relapse was undoubtedly caused by exposureduring the recent stormy weather. Mrs. Jasper N. Ohlwine was also taken sick about the same time. 'The family have the sympathies of a wide circla of friends. . : |

Weare having some very fine weather for husking corn in the shock, and farmers seem to be impreving the time. Several families have moved away from Sparta recently, but as most of them gkipped out between two days itis goodevid_enee that the neighborhood can'spare them, and business moves on just as though nothing had happened. Of course they were soon very much missed by certain persons to whom they were indebted. We think one of the parties used us very cool too in not returning our overcoat, which they borrowed before they left. We missed the garment more than we did them, but we did not propose to stay cool all winter; we are now comforted with a new overcoat.

The Spartans have selected Miss Mary Domer to teach their winter term of school. Miss Domer is an experienced teacher, and so far all seem to be well pleased with the choice.

‘Wm. Schlabach has traded a farm near Deer Lake for what is known as the old Damel Hathaway farm. He now hag about 240 acres of land in one body, and is now in possession of near 500 acres in Sparta township. i - The panorama exhibition under the direction of Prof, Petty, at the Sparta school house, last Tuesday evening, was well attended. There were about 40 persons present, most of whom complimented Howard Winebrenner on the music. He has a good violin, and ‘seems to ‘understand how to handle the bow. - . We often hear the remark made that a person never gets too old to learn, and it is very true; for to our knowledge our honest, old, substantial farmers are almost invariably the ones that areswindled by the tramps with which our country is continually cursed, and are called upen to pay large sums of ‘money Tor someswindling patent right or damaged cloth, for which they have to pay four or five prices. We think it would be an advantage to the people of this county if they would support our local papers and post themselves in regard to these swindling schemes. Then we thinkall the farmers would patronize our home merchants, as the local papers have time and again advised them to do. There are .various other reasons why we should patronize our county papers, which we will not undertake to enumerate in this communication.

John L. Wolf and Harrison Lafong have been successful in raising énough money by subscription to secure the services of Elder Thomas Whitman, an old minister residing'near Pierceton, to preach once a month during the balance of the conference year at theSpartaschool house. - He preached an eloquent discourse last Friday eve., to a large and attentive audience. We were sorry to learn that the Elderlost one of his daughters about two weeks ago. She was an accomplished young lady, aged about 16 years. .The bereaved parents-hayve the sympathies of numerous friends in Sparta. L We are of the opinion that our prosecuting attorney will know just how to sympathize with eriminals. =~ Nov. 24, 1877. : MARK.

- The citizens of Cleveland intend giving the poor of that city a Thanksgiving dinner. Money and provisions have been liberally given,and the committees are satisfied that the .whole programme can be successfully carried out. Arrangements have been made to provide for 5,000 people. ¢ _
