—Last Saturday was somewhat characteristic of November weather—the most uninviting in the whole year. A most happy and highly encouraging alternation from one extreme to the other, should' afford the true lover of variety in Nature infinite cause for gratification, ‘ —People whom pure resentment prompts to affect an injury to others, invariably subject themselves to a recoil of the discharges which prove infinitely more disastrous to themselves, in the public estimation, than te the parties forming the target.

—Our farmers are heginning to erect much more board fence than formerly. The relative scarcity of rajl timber, and the comparative durability of board fence, when properly constructed, in connection with the fact that its original cost is but little greater—the farmer furnishing his own material—than that of raii fence, is the prompterof this change. '

—Suceess In business rather depends upon concentration' of purpose, in company with indefatigable diligerce and ‘perseverance, despite -all - obstacles, in the pursuit of that purpose, than upon divided. attention to several brances of industry.

That we now have an edifice which is an ornament to the town, and an lionor and benefit to the community—both town and surrounding country—therefore, let the “powers that be” devote due attention to this important matter and perfect arrangements for their happy realization the present summer. ~Ought not our square to be fitted up in the form of a park for public recreation and amusement ? By devoting to it proper attention, it could be made, in a few years, to afford an elegant resort of this kind, The above suggestion is the original idea eonnected with the laying out of such a square.

—Last Saturday was a busy day for our tradesmen. The inclemency of the weather, which rendered it unfa: vorable for farm work, proved 'an agreeable and appreciative event to our merchants. = s

— The most busy season of the farming commuuity is nearly at hand. Harvesting and hiy-making ever come together or in close succession, while at the same time corn cultivation must not be neglected. : ~ —There is an old German proverb which, freely translated, runs thus: “Nothing is so finely spun, But what will at last come before the sun.” Let those who travel “ways that are dark” and indulge in “tricks that are vain,” ponder over this truism. ;

—lt is said that “rust” is.damaging the wheat considerably, especially on the lower lands. fois, in connection with the ravages of the Hessian fly, will doubtless cause the crop to fall considerably short of what was to be expected a short time ago. - +—When people of acknowledged respectability and of good standing in society are traduced and maligned in an irresponsible and ebscene publication, they can a great deal better afford to rely upon their rectitude of conduct for their vindicatlon than to permit a'licentious knave and swaggering fool to become thefi_r champion.

—OQur citizens should have been niore active this Spring in the matter of planting shade trees along their property. Nothing adds more to the beauty and cheerfulness of a town than an abundant supply of them.— Besides, it greatly enhances the value of property, and, therefore, does not alone redound to.pubdlic pleasure and benefit. ¢ e —We'are pleased to learn from various l_océ]ities of the county that Tue BANNER’S agitation of the gravel road question is bearing good fruit. In repairing roads, quite a number of supervisors have discarded the ancient mud plan and resorted to graveling. Let the good work continue until every public highway in the county is thus improved. e : —John P. McWilliams, county commissioner for the southern district, made us a pleasant call last Monday. Mr. McWilliams, we are happy to state, has consented to (accept a renomination for the office he now holds if tendered him by his political brethren.— As everybody regards him a first-class officer and a capital good man, no doubt need be entertained as to that contingency. R e . .~ Mr. J. M. Harrison, the democratic nominee for Clerk of Whitley county, made us a pleasant call last Monday. Mr. H, resides at Churubuseo, and was formerly a citizen of the southern part of Noble county. IHeis a native of Beaver county, Pa., migrating to this State twenty-three years ago, his principal occupation being that of a merchant. Since the year 1870 he has beeri an actual resident of Whitley county, the citizens of which will doubtless manifest their appreciation of his worth, enterprise and mer--115 43 cltizen by electing bim to tho clerkship by & round majority.

A Trip to Europe and Back in 60 Days. - Mr. Archibald Kinniéon and hisson Edward returned from their Europe‘an tour on Friday eveninglast. They represent themselves as highly pleased with the trip, and speak in glowing terms §f the pleasures and benefits to be derived from even a quite limited journey of this nature. Owing to the incomplete state of the Exposition, they remained in Paris but three days, after which they visited London and the countries of Germany and SwitzerJand. They remained in London one week, longer than in any other city, as it was there that they could converse most fluently and ascertain facts without trouble, . :

It was while in the latter city that they gleaned some facts which will, doubtless, prove of general interest to those identified, in any measure, with the improvement of draught horses. With us, the impression s entertained by not a few, amoug whom Mr. Kinnison himself, in a measure, previously classed himself, that the Clydesdale breed of horses, as a class, have not the stamina, are less durable—less lasting - than even the commen breed. From the knewledge Mr. Kinnison gained, this opinien‘is entirély erroneous. ITe says they are éxtensively used in London for draught horses and that itis the generally accepted idea there of' experienced horsemen—of all those who have any knowledge upon that subject—that the Clydesdale horse, as a draught horse, has no equal in any respect, not excepting even the famous Norman. 'Mr. Kinnison says, also, that in frons of where he boarded, a Clydesdale team drove up every morning, and being somewhat curious regarding it, he asked the driver of the same the age of one of the animals—an animal which did not look to be over 8 or 9—and receiv-

ed the response that she was in her 17th year, and, moreover, that she had been driven on those pavements, which are of the hardest stone, eleven years; yet Mr. Kinnison says she moved off as nimbly as the majority of our young horses of the common breed. ITe thinks every fifth horse he saw on the streets, of the common breed, was “stove up,” while he did not see a single Clydesdale thus affected. He states that the loads they draw!with them are simply immense; that they frequently slip and fall ‘while 'drawing these loads without sustaining any injury; that on account of their general worth, as draught horses, becom-: ing more generally known, the demand is increasing, so that, at present, they command ‘even in their native country, Scotland, from $l5OO to $2,000; that they m-e})emg exported to various parts of the avorld+—largely 1o Australia—and not alone to the United States.

Mr. Kinnison says that having ascertained these facts in a quarter where years of experience, a large and constant use of them, and the nature of the pavements, would betray their shortcomings, if any tl’fey had, he now feels satisfied of their excellencies and enduring ‘qualities, and intehds hereafter, not jonly to breed the same himself, but 40 advise his neighbors and friends, as well as his sons, to do likewise. Mr. Kinnison is a man'of truth and integrity, and his remarks regarding this matter aré therefore reliable. All those who teel interested in this question and desire further information, we would respectfull‘y refer to Mr. Kinnison who expresses a- willingness to make aflidavit that what he says upon the subject, are in London considered established facts.

Our cemetery presents a shabby appearance. The citizens in general should turr out after the busy season and give ita thorough cleaning. Our, roads are much improved by graveling. A few loads of gravel on sidewalk west of town would be advantageous to footmen. Query: Where will you spend the Fourth? A oAI X - -, That individual whose age and experience should be accompanied by 4 little ‘more wisdom, evinced a sad deficiency of that most useful apd necessury article, good commeon Sense, judging from the manner in which he discharged that fire-arm the other mofning. Such an indulgence, whether the result of mischievousness or gross carelessness, deserves the highest censure. -At least, so says one who kn%ws and we think he is about right.

~ WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP SQUIBS. . The residence of John Mock, near Webster, was reduced to ashes on the 18th inst. The fire originated from the ‘sparks of the chimney catching in the roof. We are told it consumed most of the contents. It was a large frame building, consequently is quite a loss, Most- all the schools in this township closed this week, with good success throughout. ot et ‘Farmers are being damaged a great deal in this vicinity in the way of losing hogs. It is not uncommon to see two or three in every quarter mile by the road side, dead. Mr. Editor, is there no remedy for this disease—cholera? [Ob, yes; Mr. KFischer, the Banner Block grocer, says he has a sure gure.—ED.] e ~ Harvest is near at hand, and soon ‘will be heard the reapers’ joyful song. The prospect for a good crop throughout the township, excepting the southwestern corner, never was better. A few have cut their hay, but generally . it is too green yet. :

1t is very singular and unpleasant when a man is not permitted to spend an hour in conipany with the hired girl without being watched by his better half; “but such is life,” and if we wish: to make it pleasant, our advice i 8 to omit that part of the drama. The annual love-feast of River Brethren which we made mention of itwour Jast, passed off very pleasantly with a large attendance and excellent. order, which speaks well for the young men of Salem and vicinity. Some from abroad were about “two sheets in the wind,” but they behaved very gentlemanly. o The wife of Jackson Dillon, near Salem, who has been near death for some six weeks past, with consumption, i 3 convalescing under the care of Dr. Smith, : LS

D. S. Hart has returned from Cincinnati, and is quite hopeful of beneficial results. . . : Hnd

Well, “Mark,” we did not plant the same kind of corn you Spartans did, for it looks well, and since that copious shower last Thursday it is looking better than ever; consequently on an average it 1s about knee high. ' ‘Last week while driving en route for Warsaw we passed through the district visited by that terrific hail storm some time ago in west Washington and adjoining townships in Kosciusko. We observed the wheat to be “ausgespielt;” quite a number ofy farmers will not cut their wheat. One man offered to let us have his entire crop of wheat (15 acres) for twentyfive cents, but as we were dead broke, we refused and passed on, wishing we were born rich, then we——; well, no use lamenting now. - DoORA, .Pe e i SPARTA ITEMS.

The song services at Broadway Chapel, on last Sunday afternoon, under the direction of Prof. J.F.Kinsey, was an immense affair. - The house wag (illed to overflowing and the singing was excellent. The*“Golden Shore,” a new Sunday school book by Mr. Kinsey, already inuse by several schools in this part of the country, was used on this occasion, and to hear the beautiful songs which it contains brought out by the author was a rich treat.— Arrangeraents have been made to have Prof, Kinsey take charge of the musie at the basket nieeting next Sunday at Sparta. near Wm. Hitler’s. Al--80 zzfrangemelats have been made by parties to have a No. 1 new organ on the grounds. A meeting for rehearsal will be held at Broadway next Saturday evening. One hundred of the leading singers in the country will form the choir, which will certainly add great interest to the occasion on Sunday. Seyeral of the Sunday school organizations through the country will not meet in their neighborhoods next Sunday on account of the majority of the members wanting to attend this meeting. = e Rufus Barcus has established a butchery at Cromwell, and furnishes the citizens of this vicinity the choicest of fresh meats twice a week. We lhope he will continue all summer, as it is very handy for the farmers.

From all appearances now Sparta will be very sparingly represented at Rome City on the Fourth of July, on account of harvest. :

The telephones which have been erected at Albion have proved to work like a charm. We heard some splendid singing a distance of half a mile.— Would have been pleased to have been at the other end of the wire and heard John Smith test his sweet voice. We were informed that James C. Stewart comtemplates running a wire from the Auditor’s office to his residence south of the railroad. =

- Our esteemed friend, “Jap,” we beligye, informed the readers of THe BANNER some time last winter the exact time in the morning at which he perpendicularized. Now he might impart a vast amount of knowiedge and valuable information to the people generally by stating in his. next communication at about what time in the evening he horizontalizes. MARK,
