Able speakers from abroad are expected to be present. The public is cordially invited to attend ■ County Surveyor Aller returned on the six hours belated train on AVednesday night of last week, from a two week’s stay in Indi anapolis, and Logansport. During his stay AR Indianapolis he attended tlie annual meeting of fire Association of County Surveyors, and was re-elected Corresponding secretary of the Association. He also attended the Bee* Keepers Association, and was chosen one ot the vice presidents of the same. 7 - C. P. Mitchell has become a resident of Logansport. He has more than justified our prophecy in regard to his success as an insurance, man, and now his company, the New York Life, has fitted him up an office in Logansport and promoted him to the position .of special agent for the eouuti’es of Beiffon, Cass, Jasper, Miami; Newton, Warren anti Whit/?.

The move the true inwardness cf the late failure of McCracken W Kirk, the boot and shoe dealers. ! becomes apparent to the' public the more it looks like a deliberate and long premeditated swindle. Those who ate in a position to know wlwrm.-Umy speak, say that ' the firm paid n ne of thejs whole-1 saler's bill since July last, but put i into their pockets all the money j they took in trade, after that lime, and also the large sum paid them for their stock, by Mr. J.eopold. when they quite business. These kind cf self sought swindling failures are of a very common cccuience and ought to receive the severest con lemnafiou. r Several departments of the Rensselaer public schools ere cursed by the presence of three or four incorrigibly bad, mis-, chievous, insolent 1 toys who not only do ho good for thfnmelves but half lain the efficiency of the s<• I jo< <l lor alt-others, -Xy.,thier unhallowed presence. Tub lie opinion should demand that these --boys should be required to either mend their ways at once, and . for all time, or be expelled from tl G school. The fact that the young boys ayd girls of this town are. subjected to such contaminating and demoralizing influences as results from associating daily with these young ruffians is a burning ir/orfg, and should not be endured.
