Powell, our former townsman, was removed last Saturday, from his position in the government printing office, at Washington. —We are not informed as to his future intentions, but as he has built a residence in Washington, he naturally will be averse to leaving there if he finds it practical to remain.

Mr. Babcock, who was delegate to the Republican senatorial convention last from Union tp., denies, very positively, that it was he who voted with the Carpenter tp., delegates for Mr. Phares, the Benton county candidate. Mr. Babcock is a man of good standing, and his denial can be accepted without question. As we stated last week, it was the general impression here that Mr. Babcock gave the fifth vote for Mr. Phares, we are now satisfied however, that Mr. Babcock is generally exonerated from the charge.

N. Warner & Sons received a carload of fiae farm wagons, last Saturday, and it was an encouraging sign that half of them had lines of three inches or more in width, and we only wish that the proportionate demand for broad tires was still greater. In fact, knowing as people now do, the good effects of broad tires on roads, and the bad effects of narrow ones, it is pretty nearly a crime for a man to buy a narrow tire wagon; and their use in the vicinity of Rensselaer will henceforth be more injurious than ever, now that we are to have gravel roads. But reform in width of tires should not be confined to heavy wagons. The one seat buggy with a three quarter inch, or the two seat with an inch tire, is just as big. a sinner for its size against good roads, as the heavy wagon with its inch and a half tire. B. F.
