We understand that Mr. J. H. Burna while boring a well on his farm two miles south and east of Kentland last week, struck a vein of coal ninety feet below t'je surface. He then bored in another place about forty rods distant aqdnwhen down tbe same distance at nick the same vein. In one place it was four and one-half, and tn the other, six feet thick. We are told that the ground has been leased and a shsft will at once be put down. M this is true ws will have no more coal famines in this part part of creation.— Neiatun County A'ema.

Muncy is an absolute necessity in the management of any kind of business. The printing business is no exception to tbe general rule. Our bills meet us regularly every week, imperatively, and we are obliged to pay them. Unless something is coming in, it is impossible for us to meet demands made upon us. We hope our subscribers get the point. W'e are making tome improvements in our office that we may be enabled to make our paper better. This tosts monty and we depeud upon our patrons to help us in the mutter. No reasonable person will fail to realixo our position and none will be nnwiding to do for us what they can. We will call on those who are delinquent, either in'person or by postal, and we hope none such will fail to respond. A correspondent of the Indianapolis Jouris engaged in tbe construction of the C. & 1. A. L. R. R., writes as follows of the progress of the work ; “The projected C. and I. A. L. railway runs from Chica;* to Indianapolis, being about thirty-five miles shorter than any line that runs into Chicago from Louisville, Cincinnati, and other huge cities in tbe south. Tho road is completed from Did; hi Io about seven miles north of Rensselaer, and narrow gauge, nnd from Dyer to Lowell, sixteen miles, the road is completed st a udc rd gauge. There is shout twenty-one miles between Lowell and Rcns.-elaer, and six miles from Dyer to Gleuwood, whore we meet' the Western Indiana Railway and go to Chicago, and then the rond is completed from Chicago to Delphi. We are grading hetween Rensselaer and the Kun kakee river; we have graded the Kankakee inarth ; have commenced piling the Kankakee river, and the people here think thst they will soon have a way to get to Chicago without going around the world.”

The A’orfA American Review for February is the literary phenomenon of the month. First we have an earnest and patriotic article by General Grant, advocating the Nicaragua Cunal project. The genial Autocrat of the Breakfast Table, Oliver Wendall Holmes, follows with an essay entitled “The Pqlpit and the Pew,’’ written in the-best spirit of tho Christian philosopher, in which ho en ieavors to show the need that he believes to exist for a revision of the prevalent theological creeds. Under the quaint title of‘‘Aaron’s Rod in Politics,’’ Judge A. W. Tourgee emphasises the obligation, imposed upon the Republican party by the Chicago platform, of making provision for educating illiterate voters. James Freeman Clarke makes a valuable contribution to the discussion of tho ajuthorship of Shakespeare's plays. The grave evils that may result form tlie partisan character of the United States Supreme Court are pointed out by Senator John T. Morgan. The sixth of Mr. Charney’s papers on the “Ruins of Central America’’ is devoted to a description of the Pyramids of Comalcalco, which must rank among the most stupenduons monuments ever by man. Finally, Walt Whitman writes of “The Poetry of the future.” The Review is sold by booksellers generally.

Jam. 17, 1881. The circumstances of the death of Charles Harris, killed by tbe cars at Valparaiso on the i2th instant, are as follows : He and his cousin Elbert Harris roomed on one side of tbe railroad and took their meals on tbe other side. Going to breakfast at 6 o’clock in the morning, they saw, as they neared the track, a train approaching. Elbert waited until the train passed, but supposed his cousin had dashed across ahead of tbe train. Wbeu the smoke cleared away he passed over and called for Charley, it being yet dark. Receiving no response ho looked and found him in an unconscious state. Elbert supposed Charley must have made a inis4tep, causing the cars to strike him. Securing aid he carried Charley to the nearest house where he died in about an hour. The sad news was telegraphed to his mother and stepfather, James Randle and wife, of this county, where the body of tbe dead son arrived the next day and was takon to Newton county, his old home, for burial. His funeral was preached by Rev. Hogan to a crowded house. Looking upon the lifeless remains of tjiat noble young man tears flowed from every eye. The expression was made that that communi’y had never received such a shock since the death of his sainted father, caused by lightning, seven years ago. Charley was an excellent young man, and in his 24th year. None knew him but to love him. A Fbixxd. RxMssttAn, Jaw. 14m, 1881.

K> publicauistu is down on them. Christianity is down on them, and all that regards good government and good morals hold them in abhorence. It is said tlie law compels the granting of license on a mac's proving good character and fitness to sell liquor. Tbe courts are supposed to undersiand tbe law nnd the evidence, but one county grants license and another none, and on the aaiuo amount and the same kind of evidence. If a local option law is uneuuatiiutioual, so in practice* is tbe present law? Ont- thiuj cur courts and jurn-s overlook. According to a decision us the L'n t< d Suites s ereins court, that which is unjust and unfit is not law. But here is where we place ii. One court and jury have more sense tkiui another, and they are expected to decide cases according to their intelligence and moral sense. Jasper county seems to go on the supposition that no man or woman snould be allowed to sell intoxicating liquors as a beverage. Some temperance people *ay it fathers Dwiggins or Peacock should apply, we should grunt the license. This would look a little more like it, but we hardly tnink we could see it, then. Wo would rather conclude those worthy old fathers nad fallen down a few pegs from graee. A few years ago Prof. Stowe wa| traveling beyond the sea lor new light, when be wrote a letter home which was published in the religious newspapers. Ue wrote that he hud passed through some state where the people we.e so highly educated and punctilliou*!y honest and chaste, that before a lady could get a license to keen what, in this country would be called a hour* us ill fame, she had to produce a certificate showing that she was in good mid regular standing in some orthodox churcn. Many people might think that very nice. It may look so. But we would rather sup pose that the womnu hereelf was a fallen angel than that she cr>uld sanctify tbe business up to such a standard! Our present law is an absurdity. Il requin s impossibilities.
