THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

The County Commissioners are in .regular September session, thin week; Hons. Prevo, Talker and Watson all present. Monday was mostly devoted to. considering the applications for saloon licenses of JasT F. Ellis, of Remington, and Jacob Heil, of Wheatfield. The licenses were granted, in both cases. Tuesday was devoted wholly to the consideration of claims, except the time taken to go out aud examine the Lamson bridge, which was fepoi ted to be in unsafe condition. 1 * . Wednesday was road and bridge day. ' The viewers appointed at the June term in the case of the road petitioned for in Barkley tp., by M. P. Comer aud others, reported j favorably and the Commissioners therefore established the road and issued the necessary orders t 6 have it opened. The road is two miles long. The road petitioned tor in Union tp., by Daniel W. Mellin and others, and viewers for which were appointed in June, was also reported favorably, and the road is established and ordered opened. It begins at Fair Oaks and is j about five miles long, running in | an easterly direction from Fair I Oaks. Tlie other highway petitioned for in Union tp., Seth B. Moffit and others, was reported upon \ unfavorably, by the viewers, and | the'petition dismissed. The report of the viewers in the road petitioned for by Augustus Stimson and.others, in Wheatfield tp., was unfavorable., and the case was dismissed.. The Thos. Swart road, In Keener tp.,-was reported upon favorably, nnd established by the Board. Length 3 miles. The road in Wheatfield tp., petitioned for by W. D. Meyer, and others, was also ordered opened, Length 2 miles.

About the Indians.

Last Thursday evening 16 Chippewa Indians, from Wisconsin, arrived at the Indian school and' on Saturday evening 7 Dacotahs,! or Sioux, from Dakota, arrived, j This raised the total number of j Indians at the school to 47, all that j are expected, for a time, at least, j They are divided as to tribes, as ! follows. 16 Chippewas and 91 Menominees, from Wisconsin, and ] 20 Dacotahs, from Dakota. They range in age from 10 to 18 years. The Wisconsin Indians are many of them largely mixed with French blood, some being far more white than red men. The most notable Indian in the school is Oshkosh, son of thel present chief of the Menominees aud grandson of the celebrated chief Oshkosh, from whom the towns of Oshkosh, in "WTscobsiu and Oshkosh, in Mississippi, received' their names. Many of the boys have considerable education already, although a few of them can not even speak the English language. The institution has been built and, so far, maintained tvholly by private donations, the principal endowment being by a wealthy Catholic lady, of Phiadelphia. It is understood, however, that the Government will contribute a certain amount, about 8125 per year, per capita, we believe, towards the support of the Indians while they attend the school. The building in which the school will be conducted is not quite completed, but nearly so. It is 80 feet square, four stories high, including the dormitory in the attic, and built around an open court iu the center, 30 feSt squkt'e. The purpose of the school is to fit. the more capable of the young men fpr teachers among their own people and to train the others in mechanical and agricultural pursuits..

THE TIPPECANOE CLUB.

* GOOD MEETING OF GOOD , 'ME.V The meeting oF 1840 Harrison voters, in the Opera House last Saturday afternoon, was a complete success. It was attended by a large -number of Tippecanoe j voters and a good many interested 1 auditors. Wm. Wishard, of Newton county, was chosen president of the meeting, and A. Purcppile, i of Rensselaer, secretary. A club was.formed under the name of Jasper County Harrison and Morton Tippecanoe Club, Men who voted for' William H. Harrison in 1840 or 1830 and who pledge themselves ,to vote for Benjamin Ilnrrison and do all they can, by honorable means to j to secure hjs election, are elegible | for membership. Archibald Rur- • cupile was chosen president of the club, A. H. Wood, secretary and Jonathan Peacock, treasurer. Short but interesting and instructive speeches were made by the chairman, Mr. Wishard, by Pr. James Ritchey, by Squire John Lewis, Isaac Sayler, and S. P. Thompson. The Rensselaer Glee Club sang a number of songs mostly modifications of the Harrison songs of 1840, and set to the old tunes. The membership ot the club is now r 35 ard will be largely increas- ; ed. The next meeting will be ; held in the Court House, on Satj urday afternoon of next week, or ! two weeks from the time of the previous meeting. A Women’s Republican Club. A preliminary meeting^of the Republican ladies of Rensselaer, to form a Women’s Republican Club, was held in the Opera House, last Saturday afternoon, after the adjournment of the Tippecanoe ! Club meeting. A permanent organisation was effected by the election of Mrs. A.

All ReI publican ladies of Rensselaer and vicinity are mort earnestly invited to attend the meeting and join the club.

COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION.

The County Board of Education met in the court house, last Saturday in their regular 7 annual Septeinber meeting. The adoption of text books for the schools of the county, to replace those the term of which expires in October, was the most important business of the session. The revised editions of the works heretofore in use, were adopted. The following are the books adopted and the retail prices agreed upon between the Board and th© agent of the house which publishes the books: McGuffey’s revised Ist reader $0.20 “ “ 2nd “ 0.3 a “ 3rd “ 0.50 “ . “ 4th “ 0.60 “ “ sth “ 0.85 “ “ speller 0.20 White’s primary arithmetic 0.25 “ intermediate 0 10 complete “ 0.75

Harvey’s revised elementary Grammar 0 50 Harvey’s revised English Grammar 0.75 -New Electic elementary geography 0,65 -*-• —L- -- -oomptete - “ ~—-1.35 “ copy book 1 0.10 The Committee on School Supplies was instructed to obtain bids from responsible parties for furnishing all the schools inthecOunty, with necessary supplies, at a uniform price. The necessity of this action is evident from facts -like;--for instance, that some of thStrustees had been charged 50 cents per square foot for blackboard slating while to some other trustees the same article had been offered for 14 cents, per square foot; and that the same desk had been offered for 82.50 each, to one trustee and for 83.75, to another trustee.' _ The trustees unanimously agreed to hereafter enforce the law requiring teachers to attend the township institutes of tp forfeit one day’s wages for each failure to attend.

Bring Back the Books.

Parties having in their possession books belonging to the Dickens Library are hereby requested to return them on or before Thursday, September 13* to the librarian, at public school bnilding. A hue of five cents per day wiil be imposed after that date.
