His brother is the banker. Simon is a disciple of Blackstone and one of the most successful lawyers iu Northern Indiana. —Young man, if you want to makfe yourtelf acceptable to cultured female society you must get a suit <>f clothes made to order at Jones’s Merchant Tailoring establishment.

See the advertisement of the “Iroquois Blacksmith Shop” In an' other column." A v —Mr. and Mrs. L. S. Alter, In Car penter township, are rejoiclug over the advent of their first born, aeon. It is to be hoped that the son’s noble sire will continue to survey, Jasper county lands until the voice of male children Is heard at every Republican Household, and the Democrats and dlrecnlrtickers shall lament on account of the number of dresses and fine bonnets they will be required to purchase. f —lt has come to our ears that one of' Rensselaer’s most valued mothers remarked after reading a paragraph In the last Issue of the Republican that we not worry about the preponderance of female chtfdren being born this spring to Republican parents, for the time is not far distant in which the ladies will be permitted -to vote, when Republican principles will predominate without the aid of the rising generation.” —ln .another column will be found the announcement of David L. Blshopp, Esq., of Kentland, Newton county, as candidate for the nomination of Prosecuting Attorney,-’subject to the decision of the Republican Judicial convention. He is an able and active attorney, a scholarly gentleman, a icareftil practitioner, and a stalwart Republican.' If nominated and elected he will doubtless discharge the duties of his office in a manner that will give general satisfaction to the peojile and do credit to himself and the profession. 7 —Capt. J. M. Wasson, of this coun< ty, was in Libby Prison ami-crawled out through the tunnel with Colonel Straight and others, but unfortunately he was recaptured and returned to the filthy prison pen and kept tbere # until exchanged several mouths afterward. He is a warm friend of Colonel’s and will do all he caD to secure his nomination for Governor of Indiana. The indications now are that the delegates to the Republican State Convention from this county will vote solid for the Libby Prison tunneler, all of which will be fully sanctioned by the Republican. —County-Commissioner Dunn Informs us that if the taxes are paid aa promptly as usual Jasper county will have sufficient means by the first of Jane to pay every dollar of her Indebtedness. Considering the size of our county, her population and the necessary public lmprovermnVhis is something to be proud of. But this result has been the aim of the presput board from the beginning, and to this end a careful watch has been kept over the expenses. Several bills presented at the last session were carefully pruned, expecially those presented by ludianapoiis stationers for blanks, records, etc. Where commissioners fall into the habit of allowing bills on sight, without any Investigation as to their Reasonableness, extortions would soon bankrupt the treasury. Expenses should always receive more attention than the sources of revenue.

A Bee in His Bonnet Farmer* must not forget that F. W. Bedford, the veteran dealer in Plow*, Cultivator*, Farm Wagon*, Reapers, Mowers, Grain Drills, and all kinds of Agricultural Implement*, la now fully prepared to accommodate his numerous customers with any article in his line.

-We are not certain that the following statements are correct, but we give them for what they worth. Some three or more years ago, the cffleisls of the town of Montieello issued bonds in the sum of $30,000 for the purpose of erecting their handsome school building. Said bonds draw a higher rate of interest than money is now worth, and an effort was made recently to fund them at a lower per centThe work was to be accomplished by a certain banker, who after getting tbe money in his possession skipped tor parts unknown. The banker’s bonds* men have been sued for the $30,000, and by change of venue the trial will be heard by Judge Hammood at the April term of the Jasper Circuit Court, which will convene next Monday. —Postmaster James has fitted up the Rensselaer postoffice in superb fetyle, at an expense of about four buudred and fifty dollars. The new furniture was manufactured by the Yale Lock Mauufacturing Company, at Stamford, Connecticut, and possibly excels in beauty and convenience all other postoffices In ludiu'.ia. The boxes, panneis aud moulding are made of yellow pine and black walnut, oiled and handsomely polished. There is a general delivery, a department for the sale of stamps, postal cards, Ac., and a department for postal orders. Besides these there arc a number ofiron-bouud lock boxes for business men, attorneys, Ac., and a still larger size for editors and those receiving a large amount of mail matter. Rensselaer can well be proud of its postofflee and the efficient manner iu which it is managed.

Down in the mud— * With eujrer feet She skipped across the treacherous street, Aud as »he skipped She tripped And slipped And fell with a dismal, pitiful moan, And a groan, And n hollow, sickening, ghastly thud Into the mud, the uiudl the mud!! “Down in the mud!” The thrilling cry Rang in the ears of the passers-by; They saw her stop A nil drop And flop Into the deepest, terrible rush A Of slush! % Tmw saw her covered from slippers to hood With filth of the street and the mud, the mud! Down in the rand! O maiden guy. Tripping across the,street to-day, Bewnrn your grip— You’ll trip, And slip. And sink like a leaden plummet down— Low down— Deem in the depths of the murky Howl, The hapless prey of the mud, the mud! Wri'.tcn for the Rkpi-blicak. ONE FRIEND. Of all theltoons that come to man, I first desire sweet friendship’s hand; I care not for the guildcd show, If I am blessed with one friend I know. I ask not for a vast estate, Or any station among the great; The love of one Is all I ask. The friendship that for’er wilt last. I covet not an omperor'u crown. Nor envy men of great renown; I atn content with one friend in deed, Who will prove true in time of need. I'll travel on life’s rngged way, Nor stop to heed deceptions gay; I’ll bravely meet all storms that wrend If I am blest with one true friend, ltenssclacr, March 6, 1830. C. K. 11.
