This has boon a bad Spring for p ionics. _i_ The growing corn in this counly looks well. The fruit crop of Pike county will b ) most abundant. . The town is as dull this week as a patent office report. Cherries and strawberries are plentiful in this market. The steamer Rosa Belle has not been running this week. One wee£ from to-day will be the longest day of the year. Harvest bands are iu good demand and wages are most excellent. , Dusty grows the roads, and linen d asters have Buporceded overcoats. For soda water sweet, delicious and cooling, Quttfok’s <uui be beaten. Great numbers of fresh fish are biinn daily offered for sale in our markets.

The pulpits of the various churches o ’ the town will all be occupied on next Sunday.« The subject of discourse at the G. P. Church next Sabbath will be “Light Beyond the Clouds.” Nearly everybody attended the basket meeting ,and baptffcing at Gray's church on last Sunday. A base-ball club has been organized here that will challenge tho Washington club at an early day. Wheat harvest will begin in this locality in about ten days. The crop will be one of the best for years. If you waut a better and cheaper than the so-called “first-class” buggy, call on J. F. Trafzer. Preparations for the celebration of the Fourth of July at this place are •till going bravely on, and we may be bnppy yeh__V The National-Greenback pgjtty of tkie county will hold their nominating conventional Winslow about the l’8tb of August, Let every reader of the Democrat make arrangements to attend the Grand Fourth of Jply celebration to -be given af this place. For the first time in many months, we now receive our mall matter regularly, and life seems to Ire more foil of joyi ihanfor tome lime put.

If you want to knowfvho pay* the best prices tor wool, go see Moses Frank. ®■> The promise that the^seed-time and harvest shall not fail is about to be fulfilled in this locality. ' Three weeks from to-day Charles J Guiteau will be hanged for the murder of Pi esident Garfield. Eighteen years ago yesterday Abraham Lincoln was re-nominated tor President of the United States. The Temperance Alliauce that flourished here for awhile like a green bay tree, has gone botjyie to the god that gave it. » Fifty thousand ponuds of wool wanted by Moscb Frank.

Leslie’s office in this place, on Thursday, June 22nd. J- W. Gullick has purchased nearly two-hundred pounds of ginseng since the season opened. If he had this amount in China it would be Worth $1,600 to him. . The last few days of warmth and sunshine have filled the hearts of the farmers with hope and confidence that the year will be a prosperous and abundant one after all. County Superintendent of Schools, Wm. M. VanSickle, examined thirtyfour applicants for teacher's license on last Saturday; twenty-two of whom were granted license to teach. The Fourth of July will be on Tuesday this year; three weeks from next Tuesday will be thp time, and Peters burg the place where this great anniversary will be appropriately and grandly celebrated. There were more substantial farm era, and good wheat growers in t own on Monday than has ever before congregated here on any one day. The field, trial of the different reaping ma chines is what brought them out. The new comet, so extensively advertised, is a fraud. It is now leaving the earth at the rate of.ninety million miles a day and has never been visible to the naked eye of more thttu five persons out <&.fifiy millions of people There has been more hew customers at “The Ten Cent Store” in the last week than ever before. People from all parts of the country visit it each time they come to town and hear the low prices on Groceries, Notions and Tinware.._

i The Police Gazette prints a portrait and sketch of 'Col. John T. Deweese, of Denver.. Colorado, now a noted, criminal lawyer of that place. Cot. Deweese once lived here,and practiced law with Col. C. M. Allen, now of Viucennee._ On last Saturday night # masquerade party consisting of three young ladies and three young men paraded the streets until the “wee sma hours.” Who they were, or what great (ruth they were trjing to exemplify we are not prepared to say.

Within the next ten days some interesting developments in regard to the road will maltha themselves manifest. Oar local musicians on last Ss.tur day night, serenaded the cities ol Vincennes, Washington, Olnoy and other points, by telephone. The entertainment lasted until the small hours ot the night, and was a season of much enjoyment to all concerned. Petersburg, Ind , June 7,1882. This is to certify that the Champion Cord Binder cat fifteen acres of barley for me this day, done its work well, saved the grain well, elevated the grain well and tied a good tight bundle. I am well satisfied with ittf work. 1 - J. B. Davidson. The street in front of our office has been filled with Champion reaping and mowing machines belonging to Hatfield & Palmer for the past ten days but every hour, nearly, Borne purchaser loads up a machine so that we trust that the blockade wilt noon be broken.

Sometimes a little assistance at the right time will enable the system to throw off at) attack which might otherwise result in serious sickness. Ayer’s Pills should always be kept at hand, and promptly taken for the relief of slight ailments, before they become formidable diseases. ^The celebrated “Excelsior Mills” ol^Union are now turning out the finest and beat grades of flour sold in this market. They sell a twentyfive pound sack of their best fl^ur for ninety cents. Their agent in this place is Moses Hess who wiH°alwayB keep a full tine of their productions on band, _ Weakness of the joints and muscles, impurity of the blood, urinary catarrh, and other disordered organic functions, permanently cured by using Brown’s Iron Bitters. It strengthens the affected parts, infuses new life, new health and new vigor into the whole general system, and makes life seem well worth living. The managers of the Fourth of July celebration here have secured lion. W. Ray Gardiner, of Washington, and W. F. Townsend, Esq , of this-place to deliver the orations on this interesting occasion. At night, there wiil be a grand display of fireworks and the day promises to be observed by our citteans most appropriately. 1

Hod. William Hawthorn, who baa been jn business in this counts so long that he has justly won the title ot “pioneer merchant of Pike county,” has sold out his well known establishment on Main street to Messrs. John Hammond and Clarence Parker, and retired permanently from business. Mr. Hawthorn carries with him into his retirement the good wishes of a host of friends who will ever wish tor -him long life and happiness. The Young Liardener, an agricultural implement of much merit, patented by John D. Myers,of Lovelv Dale, and sold in this locality by Hibberd Snyder,- Eisert & Son and Charley Hammond, each day demonstrates the fact that it ia the most complete in struineut for the garden ever introduced in this county. There is noth ing like it. To see it is to buy it, and to buy it is a perfect satisfaction,.

For »be year ending May the let, the Superintendent of Schools of this county issued license to teach for twenty-four months to three appli cants, thirteeu received eighteen months license, thirty-three were licensed for twelve months and seventeen taught school by virtue of a six months certificate. The whole number ol teachers now holding license in this county is ninety-two, while the number of Schools to bo supplied with teachers is one hundred and one. Tuesday was an enchanting day. The sky was of an exquisite turquoie blue, over which fleecy clouds drifted •lowly like the fair silken-sailed boats that carry the white souls of the just to the heavenly harbor. It seemed a day dropped down from Paradise; the low, delicious south wind was so soft and sweet that one could readily believe that it came fresh from the shores of the river of eternal life and beauty, connecting time to eternity with a chain whose links were forged on the silver anvils of concord With hammers of gold. Great expectations are being indulged in by our people for a rare musicsl treat on the 28th lost., when Uonavin’s Tenneseeaos appear here at Schaefer's Opera House. This wellknown organization has won golden opinions wherever they have appeared and our citizens can rest assored that their entertainment here will be well worth an evening's expenditure of time and money. A careful attention to tho bills and reading matter now being circulated will give everyone an idea of the treat ju store for them on Wednesday evening, the 28fh inst. For aome time a tombstone has lain in front ol the Press office. A short time ago a piece was broken off, probably by a special providence. Thif stone, together with the piece, is shortly to be removed, the largest piece to be placed in front of the Pike County Democrat, and the small one at the Democrat’s branch office at Winslow. This* is no joke, as the arrangements have all been made with the editor of the Dem - ocrat.—[Petersburg Press. The tombstoue which the Press kindly offers to the Democrat Is firmly but respecMully declined. The Article in question has been representing a dead institution so long at the Press o£oe that a iiveiuid progressive journal like the Democrat cannot find any use for it.

“Honor to whom honor is ice” is a proverb as true as it is old, and when we say that in the recent field contest between the respective machines sold in this town that the Empire machine sold by David White was champion, we only assert what at least seventyfive per cent, of the people who were preseut^at the trial expressed as their verdict. Mr. While went into the contest with scarcely a. friend for his machine, and he left the field followed by a shouting multitude. Parties who contemplate purchasing a binder this year should lose no time in examining the merits of the Empire. Adv. On Monday afternoon the agents of the McCormick, the Champion, the VVoods and the Empire reaping and binding machines of this place, engaged in a friendly contest as to which machine possessed the most merit. The place chosen for the trial wag a .field of barley close to town and to this spot repaired at least five hundred people to see the exhibition. All four of the machines were followed by their respective partisans, and the contest was an exciting one indeed, bnt inasmuch as there waft no regular committee of judges appointed we cannot tell which machine triumphed; suffice it to say, however, that all did, exceedingly well, and it would be a hard thing to decide which was victor. The receut field contest decided one thing and that was this; that no other machine binds so closely, square and well as the Walter A. Wood. With scarcely an effort this machine carried off the honors of the contest and established itself upon the bed-rock of a permanent success. In the hands of men who knew next to nothing of its practical workings the Wood- did snch splendid work that its enemies were bound to acknowledge its superior merits. The Taylor Boys are justly proud of the achievements of the machine they represent, and will lake pleasure in .further exhibiting it to' their nnmerons friends at their store-room, next door to Adams’ livery stable.

Every day we receive 6ome new word of encouragement from onr con* temporaries, or people in different parts of the State, applauding our course in endeavoring to break up the leech element in politics We copy below a letter from a Republican of Harrison county: Bradford, Harrison Co., Ind., June 1,1882', Dear Sir: Tou are a stranger to me, but yet I must toil yon that I have just read your article denouncing the blood sucker in politics, which was copied- by the Corydon Republican. 1 rejoice in your principle and glory in yonr determination. Justice and honesty must prevail to secure the welfare ot our country. The worst thing in the world is ror a man to sell his principles tor money. I only wish all the editors over tho land would come before the people with such boldness and determination to fight immorality as you do, then we would toon realise the good ofloot. Gladly do I strike hands with you, though wo do not belong to the same party. God blots rou In your efforts, Tonrs truly, J. BOOUTOU.M,

He has repeatedly tried to destroy iiimself, once by exploding a cartridge against his bead, and another time he attempted to starve himself to death. In this he persevered for eleven days and then gave that project np, only to succeed in his last attempt. In consummating this last design upon his life he fastened a towel to a staple in the ceiling of his cell and standing upon an Inverted waterbucket, launched himselt into the land of the uuknown. When discovered by the Sheriff, he was cold in death and had probably been hanging an hour or more. Wadley bad no relatives in this county. lie was a man about forty years old and was undoubtedly insane during his entire confinement in jail and at the time of his death.
