-Advertisements to insure insertion, must be handed ia by Tuesday preceding the day of publication. XcwSacriDcn. Many of our present patrons -liberally appreciating our efforts to furnish them a larger paper at the present subscription priceare exerting themselves to increase our subscription list. Every one of them to whom we have spoken upo;i the ßubject, agree to mention the subject to their neighbors, and secure us an additional name. In many instances they have already been successful, and for the aid we may receive in our efforts to render our counly paper respectable in appearance, and in every way creditable to our town and county, we expect to know in less than three weeks, to whom we are indebted, and we shall delight in remembering thern. Wt want all the ua.nes handed in by the fifth of March next. We hive heretofore neglected to acknowledge the receipt of favors from our attentive Representatives and Senators in Congress. Of course we are under obligations to tlu-m. We occasionally send them a Burner, but they have never said a word about it. Don't von see? ScIlOOl leathers may find something to their interest by reading the advertise-1 ment of our Townahip'Clerk. The clearing of the track for the Cincinnati, Peru ani Chicago Railroad, is progressing from this place north, with :( mmemlable rapidity.

If8. :IIow sslf defiant we can sit in our easy chairs as the first approaches of spring fever puts us in a gaping mood, and all around us is melting except the haughty feelings of t'.ie litter day publicans, the consciences of the picayune grinders, and the stony hearts of old bachelors when we know so well that several of our citizens lnve stored away an abundance of food ice for next summer's use. li was so firm and solid, that if we can engage the straw in which it is packed, to feed cur cow, we'll risk the ice-cream on ths next fourth of July. Advance PriCC We have now had charge of the Binner seven months, and, as will be perceived by the terras, those who defer the payment of their subscriptions six months, are chargeable with $2.00, but we shall c!nr! no one mo're than the advan C2 pries. 81,50, if paid within two week; from this date at which tims the second volume of the paper will be completed. After that time, all who were subscribers at the time we took charge of the establishment, and have paid nothing, will be charged 82.00. This, in addition to ths terras, will surely be timely notice. At the commencement of the third volume of the paper, which will be after two weeks more, we shall enlarge it to the full double medium sixe, and as we shall not increase the price of subscription, we rely alone upon an increeted number of subscribers, and their strict observance of the terms, to aid in defraying ths extra expense we shall necessarily incur in the enlargement. A couple of youngsters were committed to Jail on Monday night last, for in texrupticg religi out ' assemblies in the south part cf this county. Out present Statute is pretty severe upon suchoffend-

era and they should be cautious how they offend. The laws are given to our executive officers that they may be faithfully and honestly enforced. The Marshall Circuit Cuuu commences in this place on Monday next. The docket presruts an unuuai amount of busi-ness,

Banking House. The Western Bank is soon to have its rooms in Dr. 'Brown's new building. The front room is now being fitted up for that purpose, and will be the most pleasant and beautiful business place in our town. CüilgreJS. The U. S. Senate is still hammering away on Douglass' Nebraska bill, and from the expressiou of public assemblies in various parts of the country, and the Stite Legislatures now in session, we are induced to believe that if the plan has any friends at all, they are mostly in Ccngreßs. It will never meet with the concurrence of any considerable portion of the people, either in the north or south. SüOl. A man by the name of Scott was accidentally shot on the 1st inst., at a Wolf hunt, near the county line dividing I Allen and Whitley counties. The conductor of a public Newspaper would vary much from a strict line of duty, by partaking of the spirit of envy and little personal likes and dislikes of the little factions which are apt to intrude themselves into all neighborhoods. We delight to have it in our power to speak well of all our citizens, and it is surely .a narrow contracted and selfish mind that would deprive U3 of this de lightful privilege. If our personal dislikes for a neighbor are to ruin him and his future prospectg in business or in society, his for us are just as apt to ruin us and curs. But we subscribe to no iiich doctrine.

The amount shipped to all quarters in 1851 was 634, 492.000: in 1852, 845.779,000; in 1853. 054.900,000. A number of the Press of the eastern cities seem lately to have become fully convinced of the humbuggery of the Crystal Palaee association, by its recent award of premiums. It has been, from its commencement to its close, one of the grand failures and fizzles of the age. Cood Lirks. At some of the little evening social parties of our young folks, during the present winter, whilst the weather was rather disagreeable and the side walks were covered with ice, it has been strongly intimated that some of the young gentlemen, (we don't know who.) allowed ths young lauus to slide to them alone, as best they could. They made no unnecessary talk about it, (extraordinary girls) until one evening last week, those said young gents, and probably several others, each received a ticket from a young lady to an oyster supper go'.ten up and prepared by the young ladies themselves, and at their own expense at the residence of a kind neighbor. At the hour designated each young lady called for her gentleman, and some managing tieo gallanted them safely to the repast. The suppsr was splendid, and each one was highly elated with his good fortune in being a chosen one for such an happy occasion. But as their little fingers got bedaubed with canda sticks, they were furnished nothing to clean them, and to use their cambrics for such purposes would render them rather disagreeable for other purposes during the evening. .We hve not heard, however, that anything of much value stuck to their fingers. As the time passed to a late hour in the evening, we could not be surprised if the young gentlemen began to consider themselves slightly neglected. At this late hour we who hid not re tired, certainly were much alarmed when we , heard kling a-te kling, klirg-a-te-

kling. 'Tis certainly too late for auction. What ts the matter? Kling-a-te-kling "Boys lost!" A.U explained uow. Oh, how we felt for the anxious mothers; but our sympathy alone would not restore their lost treasures. Kling-a-tc-kling "Two cents reward for the delivery of J T at the corners of tip top and tow head streets," Umpli not so much of a loss after all, and we paid no more attention to it, until we heard the boys all got home safe alone. The B'hoys say it shall never be so again; and we believe it.

Confirmed. Trie appointment of Mr. RedfieM, to fill the place of Mr. Bronson as collector of the port of New York, has been confirmed by the U. S. Senate. The Poor House belonging to Randolph county in this State, was consumed by fire on the 25th ult. Loss about 04,000. Several of our exchanges coneur in our views iu relation to advortisng the list of letters for the U. S.

C, 1S51. England. Lord Jobn Russell has sent a circular to the members of the House of Commons, requesting a full attendance at the openiug of the IIju3c. Sir John Inglis ha3 resigned. England is actively recruiting her coast volunteer " artillery and C033 defence ßuard. 10.000 men are wanted. Exertions are also making to man the navy, and more ships :ere fitting out, t jt epparently to land forces. France. -the Monittur publishes a decree, extending free trade in breadstuiTs between Fiance and EnglanJ to the 31st of July. The revenue from indirect taxs, last year, shows on increase of over four millions over the preceding year. Russia h3S made overtures to Denmark for the purchase of the Eurnhome Island. Italy. The Roman States are sutlering Tiuch for food. A scarcity'aho prevails at Naples. The prohibition to export breadsrufis from Naples is extended to March 1st. and importations are extended to the same time. FURTHER BY THE ARABIA. The details of the. late battle on the Danube show a brilliant victory to the Turks. The conSict lasted five cijys.and the Russians were completely discomfited 4C00 killed and two Generals wound ed. On the last day. the Turks attacked! the Russian reserve, driving It back upon Krajovat, with a great 1ü33 of cannon and immense slaughter on both sides. The Turks destroyed the Russian fortifications, and returned to Kalafat. The Russians erected forti fications at Sebastopol, and extinguished all the light houses on the Crimea. The Porte made essential modifications to the note of the Four Powers, which the latter pronounced satisfactory, and sent immediately to St. Petersburg!!. The Czar's reply had not been received, but the indications were that he would immediately withdraw his ambassadors from France and England. The bank of England had raised its rates of discount to 0 per cent. The greatest activity prevailed in the French navy yards. Every ship had been ordered to sea, operatives were working on Sundays, and a new levey of seamen had been made, England is strengthening all her coast defences. Great scarcity of food existed in the Roman States. ARRIVAL OF THE PACIFIC. New York, Feb. 9. The Pacific, from Liverpool on Wednesday the 25ih of Jan. arrived at 3i P.M. to-day. Emigrant ship Taylor, from Liverpool the 19th for Melbourne, struck and sunk in Dublin bay. 400 lives were lost. Several other calamities also have occurred along tho Irish const. The navvs may be sumrnsd up: No official reply from tho Czar. No abatement of actual hostilities or preparations for attack, but no further battles reported, cither on tho Danubo or in Asia. Tho allied fleets were last seen stoering for Bntoum, with a fair wind. The Russian fleet is also at sea. . - Tue Very Latest On the morning of the Paci tic's sailing, it was said on the authority of tho Times, that lite Czar has not proceeded to extreme moasuros on learning the entry of tho allied fleets into tho Black Sea. he replies by a question: Are the allied fleets to obesrvo strict neutrality, or totako activo part with the Turks? The answer to the above is.of little importance, as his final reply to the note of Vienna must, are this, be r n the way. Tho above had, however, a favorable influence on tho Bourse. . It id telegraphed from Vienna that it has transpired that the Czar' final reply will bo a contemptuous refusal to the Vienna nolo: also, referring Turkey to Gortschikoff for farther particulars, and asserting positively thnt he will not give up one yi of MenschikofPa first domands. There wero considerable moyemonts along the Danube, but no lurther battle.. The English people, seeing the imminence of war, appear to have initfe un

FURTHER BY TUE PACIFIC. New York, Feb. 9 London, Jan. 25. The Tunes correspondent wriies tint tho Bmjioror of Russia's reply, though not couched in very strong language, is of such a character as leaves little hope of change in tho Emperor's mind. It is slated that the popular excitement at St. Petersburg is indescribable, and that the French Government anticipate thai an explosion of such a kind will lako place ts to force tho Emperor 'o make a iortn il declaration ol war belore his plans are arranged. It is believed that 10,000 or 15,000 Russians havo crossed the Danube, there is a rumor that a dispatch has been received from t.

Tiio steamer Black Warrior arrived this morning from Mobile and Havanna. Yesterday as Mr. West, street preacher, was preaching in a vacant lot he was assailed by a number of Irishmen, who had coma on tiio ground.

San Juan, firmed at Balize this morning with California dates to the 15ih. She brings 112 passengers, nnd 813,000 in specie. Tho Dan Webster connected with tho Sierra Nevada which' brought, down Sl,000,000 in gold. California markets heavy and overstocked. Business depressed no'general news firs. Partington, upon reading in a paper that the Light guards appeared lasi evening iu undress uniform, said. "Well, if soldiers will go naked. I am glad they dont train in the day time I am.' ' ' Why, doctor, said a sick lady, you give me lheMshine inedicino you are giving my husband. Why is that?' A1I right replied the doctor, what is sauco for the goose is sauco for the gander. fXjHThe Plymouth Banner of last week says Messrs. Poineroy of that place have taken tue contract for building SO miles of the Peru Railroad, commencing at the north bank of the liankakee river in this county, thence south. The contractors are enterprising business men, and will push the work ahead as fast as possible. The grading between this tity and the Kankakee is light. There is uow encouraging prospects of the speedy completion of this road. Laportt Whig, The South Bend Register of Thursday last, has the following in relation to the same subject: ''Their contract is a heavy one; and we hope they have taken it at figures that will leave them a handsome surplus when it is completed. Wm. Q. Pomeroy, the Senior of the firm, has been for many years, one of the most prominent busi ness men and influential citizens of Northern Indiana for several sessions a member of one or the other branches of our legislature, and possessing th energy rrquisite for the extensive work he has undertaken.

Christopher Scriggins, ihe hero of our Story, is a genuine full blooded Yankee' and no mistake, and is famous for his Yankee Tricks.". As Chris., as he is generally called was on a "tour a few milf a north of this city, he chanced to spy a country tavern, and as the dark mantles of evening weie being drawn about the earth, au idea popped into his head, suggesting the p'ddibility of seeing a resting place for the night. Without giving the enbject a second thought, our hro found himself (or rather was found,) at the bar of the aforesaid tavern, ordering the various luxuries generally found at like, p'.aces, and after devouring a considerable share of the. same, concluded he would abscond to the second story and turn in for ths night. After having absconded, the "Lin 1lord and his Crowd" were very busy dis cussing the various topics of the day. and after a while, (accidentally of course.) the subject af Yankees" and "Yunkee Tricks," was brought up, and all parties entered into the discussion with uncommon eagerness. After deciding the very important question, all hands were satisfied that the landlord was right in his conjectures, and as a natural consequence, all "tuk a smile" at his expense, after which the landlord informed them that there was a genuine Yankee' in the house, and . if possible he would have a trick out of him before he left.
