Coen tor Sale. —I have 500 bushels of good sound corn to sell at the crib, on my farm two miles Viorth of Rensselaer. Patrick Donnelly. ’S’omobrow is the last day of school in town for this winter.— Mr. Butnham tells us that in a few weeks he intends to open a private school for teachers and advanced -pnpils. The grand jury adjourned Tuesday afternoon after an actual session Of not mdre than twelve hours.— They returned one indictment, and the expense to the county is not less than SIOO. Grangers ’and everybody else will remember they can gel fruit trees, grape vines, evergreens and shade trees at the Rensselaer Nursery, this spring, at prices to suit the times. John Coen, Prop’r. The Dam Nuisance. —All the people of Jasper county who are interested in the removal ot the mill-dam at Rcnssetaer; are requested to meet at the Court House on Saturday the 28th instant, at two o’clock p. m. for the purpose of consultation. Citizens. W. T. Pritchard teacher of Marion township school No 1, reports for the month ending February 13, 1874, an enrollment of fort}' pupils, and an average attendance of thirtyseven. Eddie Coen, Ett|i Hopkins, Edward Warren, Minnie Hopkins, Marquis Churchill, Albert Coen, Frank Warren and Charles Coen were perfect in attendance, punctuality, conduct and study. Mr. R. J. Yeoman teacher of Newton township achooi No. 4, reports for the month ending February Bth, 1874, an enrollment of forty-five pupils, and an average daily attendance of twenty-nine.*— Those perfect in attendance, deportment and study were Orpheus llalstead, David Halstead, Edwin Halstead, William JJalstead, Sanford Halstead and Della Boyce. Our readers will pleasejnot fail to read the advertisement of Mk George Nagle the affable and gentlemauly proprietor of the Two Mile Nursery. From personal ac•quaintance we can recommend Mr. Nagle to our frieuds as a person in whoso representations full confidence may be placed. Whatever ho says about hib trees, plants and «hrubs will be true, as he believes. Everything he offers to sell, we think, was grown by him, on his place, two miles west of here. School Fund Borrowers. —The attention of all persons owing interest on school funds is called to Bcction 87 of the school law, which imperatively requires that the Auditor “shall on the fourth Monday in Mareh offer for sale all mortgaged lands on which pay|ments of interest are due on the first day of January.” Please save yourselves cost and ns the unpleasant duty of selling your land. Frank W. Babcock, Auditor of Jasper County. Willky Harding, at Harding & Chesnut’s drug store, is selling a ifire-kindler that is said to le just a little the handiest thing to have About the house on ■ a oold winter morning, or any other time ‘ when it ia desired to start a fire quickly. Go around and buy one, thus giving the lad encouragement to earn a living by the sweat of his brow and at the same time winning the everlasting gratitude of your poor wife who has shivered over a cook-stove filled with green wood every morning this winter, while yon snoozed *way in the warm bed with the f>aby untit breakfast was ready. A petition, signed by a majority of the property-owners, will be pre- . sented to the Hon. Board ot Town Trustees at their meeting on the first Monday evening in March, praying for the passage of an ordinance to require the construction of a plank sidewalk on the north side of Washington etreet, between «Vau

Rensselaer and Front streets. This Is a step in the right direction, and we earnestly hope the prayer of. the petitioners may receive a favorable answer. The experiments of more than twenty years prove conclusively that the gravel of this region will not make good walks when thrown on the primitive soil, where there is much travel. The attrition of boots and shoes soon grinds the surface to dust, which is annoying in dry weather, being blown about by the eofest zephyrs; and which becomes a bed of loblolly mud whenever any considerable of rain falls. Then when spring approaches, thawing out beneath, whatever gravel has not been worn out sinks beneath the spouting clayey “quicksand.” On account of this tendency of our soil to “heave” when the frost leaves, such flagging as has been laid did not prove altogether satisfactory, tho’ it makes better walks than gravel does. For Sale. — A Novelty clothes wringer. Has been used half a dozen times, but is as good as new, aud is an excellent machine. En-; quire at this office.

A Representative and Champion of American Taste. NOT TOR SALE IN BOOK OR NEWS STORES THE ALDINE, while burned with all tbe regularity, has none of the temporary or timely interest characteristic as ordinary periodicals, (titan elegant miscellany of pure, light and graceful literature; and a collection of pictures, tho rawest specimens of artistic skill, in black apd white. Although each succeeding number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, tbe real value and beauty of THE ALDINE will be most appreciated after it has been bound up at the clo-e of the year. W'biie other publications may claim superior cheapness, as compared with rivals of the same clast, THE ALDINE is a unique and original conception—alone and unap. proached—absolutely without competition in price or character. The possessor of a complete volume cunnot duplicate the quantity of fine papei and engravings in any other shape or number of volumes for ten limes its cost: and then there are the Chromos, besidesl ART DEPARTMENT, 1874. The illustrations of THE ALDINE have won a world-wide reputation, aud in the art centers of Europe it is an admitted fact that its wood cats are examples of the highest perfection ever attained. The common prej- ■ udice in favor of “steel plates,” is rapidly yielding to a more educated and d sciimiDating taste which recognizes tho advantages of superior artistic quality with greater facility of production. The wood outs of THE ALDINE possess all the delicacy and elaborate finish of tbe most costly steel plate, while they afford a better rendering of tbe artist’s original. To fully realize tbe wonderful work which THE ALDINE is doing for the cause of.art culture in America, it is only necessary to consider the cost to the people of any other decent representations of the productions of great painters. In additomgto designs by members of the National Afldemy, and other noted American artists, TIIEALDINE will reproduce examples of the best foreign masters, selected with a view to tbe highest artistic success and greatest general interest Thus the subscriber to THE A LDINE will, at a trifling coat enjoy in bis own home the pleaauies and refining influences of true art The quarterly tinted plates for 1874 will be by Thos. Moran and J. D. WoodwardThe Christmas issue for 1874 will contain special designs appropriate to the season, by onr best artists, and will surpass in attractions any of its predecessors. PItCniENS FOR 1874. Every subscriber to THE ALDINE for the year 1874 will receive a pair of chromes. — Tbe original pictures were painted in oil for the publishers of THE ALDINE. by Thos. Moran, whose great Colorado picture was purchased by Congress for ten thousand dollars. The subjects were chosen to represent "The East” and “The West-” one > 8 * *i«w The White Mountains',New Hampshire; the gives The Cliift of Green River, Wyoming Territory. The difference in the nature of the scenes themselves Is a pleasing contrast, and affords a good display of the artist’s scope and coloring Tbe chromos are each worked from thirty distinct plates, and are in size (12 x 1C) and appearance exact sac-similes of the originals. The presentation of a worthy example ot America’s greatest landscape painter to the enbacribers of THE ALDINE was a bold but peculiarly happy idea, and itß successful realization is attested by the following testimonial, over the signature of Mr. Moran himself. Newark, N. J, Sept.iOth, 1873. Messrs. JAKES Button A Co. Gentlemen,—l am delighted with tbe proofs in color of yoor chromos. They are- wonderfully successful repress ntationsby mechanical process of tbe original paintings. Very respectfully, (Signed,) THOS. MORAN. These chromos are in every sense American They are by an original American process with material of American manufacture, from designs of American scenery by an American pain.ee, and presented to snbscribers to tbe first successful American Art Jonrnal. If no belter because of all this, they will certainly possess an interest no foreign production can inspire, and neither are they any the worse if by reason of pecnliar facilities of production they cost the publishers only a trifle, while equal m every respect to other chromos that are sold susgly for double the subscription price of THE ALDINE. Persons of taste will prize these pictnrea for themselves—not for the price they did or did not cost, and will appreciate the enterprise that renders their distribution possible. If any should indicate a preference for a figure subject, tbe pultlshera will send "Thought* of home ” a new and beautiful chromo, 14 x2O inches, representing a little Italian exile whose speaking eyes betray the, longings of his heart. TERRS. <5 per annum, In advance, with Oil Chromos free. For 80 cents extra, the chromos still be sent, mounted, varnished, pnd prepaid by mail. THE ALDINE will, hereafter, be obtainable only by snbsoription. There will be no reduced or clnb rate; cash for subscriptions must be sent to tie publishers direct, or banded to the local canvasser, without responsibility to the publishers, except In cases tbe certificate is given, bearing the facsimile signature of Jambs Sutton A Co. -CANVASSERS WANTED.

AND THE FIRESIDE* PROSPECTUS FOR 1874. The coming year promises to be the must eventful in a political sense that we have seen since the close of the war. The questions which have engrossed and divided the public mind during the past twenty years are rapidly passing away, and we find growing up in dip ferent parts of the country a party called by various Dimes—in California the Independent party, in lowa the Anti-Monopoly party, in Wisconsin the Reform party, in Illinois tbe Farmer’s Movement—having a common purpose and inspiration, and exhibiting a strength whioh proves that it answers one of the chief demands of the hour. The CHI CAGO TRIBUNE will give a large share of its attention to this NEW MANIFESTATION OF PUBLIC SENTIMENT. It holds: Ist. That the old party organizations are essentially corrupt and fraudulent. Having no longer any principles to carry into effect, they have become mere business enterprises, making a show of opposition to each other, bnt really sharing in the proceeds of profli gate and dishonest legislation. To suppose that any healthful reform can flow from the pretended efforts of these worn oat ao d demoralized partnerships is altogether vain ai>4 illusory. 2d. That the tariff system now in vogue is a canning device to rob the many for the benefit of the few, and that its effect is to cause farm products to exchange for abont one half tbe quantity of foreign or "protected” goods they would otherwise buy. 3d. That railroads cannot exact more than a fair rate of interest on tbe capital actually invested in them, and that when, in addition to this, they claim dividends on watered stock and frandnlent bonds, the State may rightfully interfere for the protection of the people; that unjust discriminations between different localities are In violation of law and should be prohibited. 4th.
