It is thought that quite a number of delicate spring poets perished by the uuspring-like weather of the first few days of March. The saloon of P. A. McCarty, at Otwcll, was destroyed by fire on last Monday night. It is' supposed to have been the work of an incendiary.

The pavements were covered with ice Wednesday, and many ' of our most dignified citizens were observed tositdownin.it ver> unceremonious manner. _j_ The Monroe City correspondent of the Vincennes Commercial nominates Frank B.

The reputation of the ground hog as a weather prophet is at a premium. There have been but two or three days of sunshine since the second day of February, j The Petersl)fi'*g Reading Room and Library Association will give an old fashioned canny pulling in Lingo’s building tomorrow evening.

A resurrection of nature’s latent forces is taking place. Like the world around you, renew your completion, invigorate your powers, cleanse the channels of life. AVer's Sarsaparilla is the means to use for this purpose. Billy Smith, who was scut to the penitentiary from this place about three years ago for stealing a watch from J. B. Berkshire, was recently caught burglarizing his father’s Store at Vincennes,jand will probably ttike another trip to Jclfersonville. J. B. Hannah announces himself this week as aj candhtatc for re-elec-tion to the olliice oftrastee of Washington township.

Prof. K Stirne Wiggins predicted that a severe storm would bear down on tlio Unitedi States coast on the 27th of February and that another would follow on the 27th of March, the latter to be the most severe.

When a delinquent subscriber moves away and does not pay for his paper, the Angola Herald finds where he has gope, writes him up as a fraud, ami sends marked copies of his paper to prominent men in the locality where the fellow has located, and also to the newspapers of his conuty. Thirl is an excellent idea, and every news-! paper man ought to do ttie same. A general practice of this kind would soon wind up the newspaper dead heats, and it would also guard the general public against trusting such men. The Herald has struck the right key.—Laportc Argus.

Stkndal, Ink., Marc!) 3,1884. Editor Democrat : In last week's issue ol‘ the Press the editor of that pater cor rects the report of George 1). Martin, trustee of this township, and puts the indebtedness for the year 1882 at $749.12 instead of $1,414:78 as he at first reported. The editor in commenting thereon said that if the former trustee of this township had kept his books in proper shape there would have been no occasion for a mistake in trustee Martin’s report.

Unlike other preparations, it contains no sugar of lead, nitrate of silver, sulphur or any vegetable or mineral poison. ■ It is a beautiful pomade hair dresser, producing the softness and luster of youth. Those who use this Vigor will he rewarded by a natural amf luxuriant growth of hair—even lo an advanced age. Hair falls off or •turns gray from a deficient capillary circulation. Being thus impoverished, the scalp hardens, and the follicles close; consequently, the hair not having the necessary nourishment fails out or-becomes gray. The Vigor softens the scalp, restores circulation, opens the pores of tiie skin, imparting new life and valitv to the part, thus causing the hair to grow and to retain its original color. I prepare single airtl double strength, and would always advise the use of the single strength: hut some may require double strength in order to succeed.

Grimes, Winslow, IikE The Best Remedy. The liver is connected with the stomach, intestines and other organs of the body through a system of veins, valves and ducts, by means of which it performs the most important work of cleansing and renovating the blood, separating from it, in this process, a bitter \ iscid fluid of a greenish color, called hip. This- fluid, when properly secreted by the liver, serves a useful purpose in aiding the process of degestion; but, if allowed to remaiu in the blood, it causes jaundice and other disorders for which Wilder’s Liver Remedy is a certain cure.

The Flood at Cincinnati. Noted among the many exciting and interesting incidents in connection with the late Ohio River flood at Cincinnati, was the fact that the Ohio & Mississippi Railway was at no time out of running order. This road was the only line making direct connection for the West, without excessive delay. Even at the gloomiest period, when ail other Western roads were cut off. the indomitable pluck and energy of the managers of that line asserted itself; organizing a yawl ransfer from the end of the Eighth street line of ears, they earned passengers rapidly, and with perfect safety, to the only available lauding place in Cincinnati, at Slorr* station, on the O. & M. road, where there were in waiting elegant sujd commodious steamers, which made three trips each day between Cincinnati and Aurora, in both directions, thus affording their patrons, instead of the usual provoking delays and additional heavy expense, caused by high water, a most enjoyable excursion of twenty-five miles, giving them a full and magnificent daylight view of the Ohio as it had never been seen before, and probably never will again, and making immediate connection at Aurora for all points West, Northwest, South and Southwest.
