From Remington.

The Butler building on south Ohio street is going up with almost marvelous rapidity. Very handsome cards of invitation have been received announcing the forthcoming marriage of Miss Cora Sunderland and Mr. Marcus Foresman, at the home of the bride’s parents in Foresman, on Thursday evening of this week. Mr. W. H. Wells has disposed of his handsome property in this place and will probably ieave us in the near future. He has not yet deetded where be will make his future home but it will probably be in the booming new town «of Manchester, Ala. J. E. Stiller and his little daughter, returned last Friday from a few day’s visit with friends in Chicago and Valparaiso. The . new pastor of the M. E. church, Rev. J. H. Worrall, his wife and child arrived on Monday. They will go to (housekeeping as soon as a suitable house can be secured. Messrs. Parker and Coover attended the Rally at Kniman, last Saturday. They report one of the most orderly and attentive gatherings of the kind they ever attended. Mr. Owen spoke with his usual convincing eloquence, and no doubt made a good impression. Victory will purely perch on Republican banners this year. D. M. Nelson, wife and son left on Friday last for Rensselaer, from which point they will soon depart for their home in Manchester, Ala. Miss May Lilvis attained her fourteenth birthday last Thursday and her good mother planned and carried out a pleasant and complete surprise for her, by inviting in about thirty young friends to spend the evening. Not the least important factor in the entertainment was an elaborate supper served up in the evening to which the guests did ample justice. Mrs. W. A. Hollingsworth and childred, after a pleasant visit with parents and friends, left on Saturday for Ellsworth, 111. Eleven ladies from this place spent last Friday in Rensselaer, the guest of Mrs. Sears and other ladies. The party consisted of Madames Patton. C. Hardy, Snyder, Smith, Tharp, A. Hardv, W. Traugh, A. Trangh, G. Morris, Townsend and Walton. They all spoke| in high terms of their entertainers. Mrs. Gomm returned last Thurs-

day from a visit of three weeks duration with friends m different parts of Illinois. The speech by Hod. W. D. Owen at Durand Hail last Friday evening was a grand one, not only oratorically but logically. It a. as listened to with earnest attention by a large and intelligent audience and probably threw a new light on some poiuts that were obscure before. If our democratic friends who were present did not feel that the speaker was right and that what he said bore the stamp of truth then indeed we may pronounce them as ‘ joined to» their idols.” It is a jtaatter of Avonder sometimes bow a man of sound mind reasonable intelligence and loyal to his country can be anything but a republican.
