Somebody drove into town the other day with a horse said to be over twenty-onsvyears old. The team was jin town 'ortiy * few minutes before :several candidates gathered around to ;pat the horse’s face, tickle his sides, •and aaggest that he ought to be pensioned. “A fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind.” For three days past the air has been filled with a thick, smoky vapor. It was said that the earth would pass through the comet’s tail during these days, and that its atmosphere would in consequence'‘present such ail ap-pearance-like Indian summer; but Air. J. W. Hogan states that extensive fires have been burning on the niurshes along the Kankakoe river, nhd the papers report vast forests in flames near Baganaw, Michigan, and as the wind prevailed from that direction these statements afford at least as plusible theory with whioh to account for a phenomenon unusual at this season of the year, L ®* * * A letter from Mrs. Eliza A. Lewis, 4ated Fairvilie, Saline county, Missouri, Just 17th, 1874, brings the sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Emeline I. Lewis, wife of Henry Lewis and daughter of Samuel’ Bruner, Esq., all formerly residents of She died in St. Louis on ihe 2d instant, from an attack of measles. She was twenty-seven years of age last Christmas. ‘ A husband and a son.eight years old mourn the untimely death of an exemplary wife und fond mother. Mrs. Lewis also .writes that her brother, John Bruner, was dangerously sick with measles at the time their sister died, but, happily, he lias since recovered. At the .date of her writing, Mrs. Lewis’ family and her father’s family were well, and health was generally good in that .region of country. Henry Lewis is ,» conductor on the .North Missouri (railroad—a positiou he (lias occupied lor the Jast three yesys, ‘

For relief fropi aching molars, call on W. J. Orain, Dentist, at Harding A Chesuut’s drugstore. A basket meeting will be held near the Howard school house in Barkley township, Sunday, August 2d. 1874. — Religious services morning and afternoon. Everybody invited to attend. Rev. H. B, Mii.i.ek. ——s —* ‘ The Board Of Appraisers for the Jasper County Ditching Association have completed their assessment of benefits-and damages to lands that will result from the work of the Association, which schedule is now on file with the Clerk of said Association at his office in Rensselaer, and is open for the inspection of any person interested therein. On Thursday, July 30th, 1874, the, Board of Appraisers will meet at Brushwood school house, in Union township, for tho purpose of equalizing assessments, and hearing and determining complaints thereon. The Remington Journal says something about Father Babb being too pobr to advertise. Give him a good word anyhow, Mr. Journal, in behalf of one of his old guests.—Valparaiso Vidette. Father Babb said to us the other day that lie had just paid off the last debt that lie owed in the world, and he seemed to be very much pleased about it. He lias a good hotel prop* _er(y well furnished in a thriving town, sets a good table, keeps clean beds, is popular with the traveling public, and is as affable, gentle, accommodating and solicitous for the coinfort of his guests as in days of yore. This is no paid puff, but a just tribute to a really fine gentleman and a meritorious old landlord. Judge Talcott, if you or any other good people of Valparaiso ever have business in Remington, and want board or lodging, or both, of good quality and for fair price, stop at the Babb House, north side of the railroad, opposite of the depot. Rev. \V. W. Curry,. Secretary of State and Republican candidate for re-election, is billed to speak in Rensselaer on t lie Ist day of August. At that time delegates are to be appointed for the Republican Representative, Senatorial and Congressional Conventions in which the people of Jasper county are directly interested. It is quite probable that strenuous efforts will lie made by the county officers who failed to obtain a nomination on tlie People’s ticket and are soreheaded about it, together with their Ring friends, to make this meeting rather more respectable in point of numbers than their spring, fizzle was It is also possible that some understanding will then be arrived at in regard to the status of tlie Monopoly party in Jasper county; ns well as tlie relation it bears to those men it placed in office" who are now candidates, subject to tlie decision of tlie people at the October election. Mr. Curry is a minister of the gospel by profession, a very good speaker, and should have a large audience to hear his apology for tlie Republican party. It is reported to us that an officer of Jasper county who wants another term at (lie public crib is trying to excite public sympathy and make a little electioneering capital by circulating tlie story that The Union will not publish bis explanation of the | reason why Jasper county taxes,were | so much .higher last ycai than tliegoneral ayerage 11irouahout the SUitc. —- It is not true that we ever refused to publish anything for him; indeed The Union would he gkul to know why it costs the people of Jasper county more for taxes than it costs ~poopwdtt-se von ty-n in e-other conn Ib'S_ in tlie State, and any communication shedding light upon this matter will lie. cheerfully published in these columns With hut charge. The subject of taxation is one of great interest to every person in community, and the discussion of it promises to enter 1 a.eely into the polltioal enmpaign in Jasper county this season. The public have a right to inspect the nets of public officers, and are entitled to definite, respectful answers. As a medium of public information, The Union respectfully asks, Why were taxes so much higher in Jasper county last year than in nearly eight-ninths of the counties in live State?

Base ball playing is in full blast. A new coat of paint lias been put on the Christian chapel, improving its appearance. Methodist quarterly meeting commences Saturday. Elder Graham is expected to preside. Mrs. C-C. Johnson, wife of Mahlon Johnson, formerly a resident of Remington, was buried on tholOth instant in Jennings county. Tho Journal claims to have scooped in about one hundred subscription renewals recently; which is much more agreeable than stubbing one’s sore toes.. At a regular meeting of the Board of Trustees of the town of Remington, held on the 3d instant, they made the following levy of taxes for 1874: For town expenses, 40 cents oil each SIOO and 25 cents poll; for schools, 25 oentsoh each SIOO anil 50 cents poll; total amount, 85 cents oil each SIOO and 75 cents poll.

New wheat starts out at 'sl a bushel, in the Laporte market. The tame hay crop will be light in Whito county this season. It is reported that peaches will be abundant m White couiity this season. Kentlanders label their* jugs “Kerosene” now when they attend picnics. There are now four hundred and twenty-four convicts in the Michigan City prison. Bids for. the convict labor of Michigan City will be received on the 4th day of August. The flax crop in Newton county is reported to be better than for the three seasons previous. Two dollars and forty cents a bushel is tlie exorbitant price asked at Laporte for new potatoes. A Delphi gentleman has a portrait of Mr. William Bolles, which the Journal says cost $45,000. Gen. Morton C. Hunter has-been nominated for Congress by the liepublicans of the sixth district-. A cheese factory near Wheeler, Porter county, makes use of about two---- anti = one -ha 1 f tons of milk, daily. They talk about having raised wheat up in Marshall county this season that yields forty bushels to the acre. The financial officers report $23,307.71 in the Benton county treasury, yet they protest their county orders. The old settlers of Carroll county will hold tlicir annual meeting on the Bth day of August, 1874, near Delphi. A strange fatality is raging among the cows' 1 in Laporte city, and several valuable ones have already died. “Eighteen coaches of Morman recruits went west over our road last week,” is what tho Kentlaml Gazette reports. The Valparaiso Messenger says that Judge Hammond is a sensible man, because he has no Congressional aspirations. The Singer Company’s works at South Bend, manufactured over 14,000 machine -cases during the last week of June. Mr. Drake, jusfwest of KeiiTlaml. has harvested' ijiiKjty acres of wheat that will thresh out eighteen to twenty bushels per acre. The Lognmsport Journal wants Thomasßnshnell, of White county, nominated for Congress by the Republicans of this district. The flowers of 104 summers have gladdened the olfactories ~of Mrs. Dillon, who lives .in Lognnsport, with their cheerful perfume. At Valparaiso week ago Monday, George Slater was fooling with his rifle, and accidentally killed his sister, aged twenty-two years. The wheat, hr on in-Laporte cou n - ty promises to be more than an average yield this season. It has itl 1 been harvested iitgood-condition. Spencer Biddle only stacked twenty tons of timothy hay this season that was cut and cured on ten acres of Carroll county meadow land. Tho Oxford market, in Beuton comity, is reported to be well supplied with cherries, which sell for ten to twelve and one!half cents a quart. One of tho officers of Carroll county clandestinely visited a beer picnic on the 4th, and now the Crusaders propose to make it lively for his roc,lection. Hiram Stanton, twelve yo’trs old, while hauling wheat in a field near Delphi, the other day, was thrown from the load and run over, producing instant death. The Plymouth Mail and Magnet declines to publish the song sent them beginning “Fill up with wine •your flowing bowels.” They must be afraid of the. Crusaders. The Michigan City Enterprise received at this office last week was only printed on the Chicago . sido. Don’t do so again, Bro. Jurnegan, an thou lovest us. It is estimated that the wheat crop of Carroll county will average scvtnrteeh ■ busbels ,au.winch is an increase of three bushels per aero over the yield of last year. Judge D. It. Chase is commander of a military company at I.ogansport, called the Logan Greys.— They are going to purchase their own arms and be free from entangling alliances. Says the Delphi Times-. “We long for tlie days of ripe apples and green corn.” Yonng man, take half a dozen cathartic pills before bedtime, and that longing will be satisfied.

Mr. H. Cole, of Lake county, has cut his spring wheat and burnt itj in girder to destroy, as many chinch bugs as possible. The pest has commenced on many pieces of corn. —Lowell Star. A vacancy will soon exist at West Point Military Academy, k which .may be obtained* by the best 1 looking young man in Jasper county, if iie.has a good education and is strictly virtuous. ’ A raspberry patch near'.South Rend yields several hundred bushels -of fruit this year. In the morning, when the pickers are j busiest, they-gather an average of one bushel every fifteen minutesi ! Anew German Methodist church i edifice was dedicated at Crown Point, Sabbath before last. It is | a neat and modest structure, tastefully furnished, and cost,* together I with the lot, $1,300. Mr. (’. «L. Goodrich, a former j resident of Carroll county, has ! recently been visiting Delphi tor ] the purpose of inducing a number i of its citizens to embark with him i as colonists to the. island of Cozu- * mcl, near Yucatan, which he thinks Oue yi the Edens of the earth.

A little steamboat, called the Wash'Obeuchain, plys tho lordly Wabash between Americus and Lafayette. When tlie Chicago & South Atlantic Railroad is built, she will extend her trip up to Delphi. Upon the completion of the new railroad (the Chicago A South Atlantic,) our farmers must erect cheese factories. Arrangements should be perfected this season to commence early in the spring.— Better than a mine of gold.—Lowell Star. ; The approaching political campaign in tliis county promises to be an exciting one, when fairly opened. The only drawback at present with the “faithful followers” of both parties, and which they arc at a loss to overcome, is a strong odor of hay seed which pervades the politcal atmosphere, not only in this section of the State, but throughout the whole country. —Delphi Times. Thomas Gihanski and his wife Marie, middle aged people of Polish birth, were murdered Wednesnight of last week, in their house neat New Carlisle, St. Joseph county. The killing is supposed to have been done with a hammer that was found near the premises. After their skulls \Vere .crushed in, their dwelling was fired, and their bodies were nearly consumed when discovered., * It ts supposed they were murdered for tlicir money, as Cihanski was known to have about SBOO in a belt upon his person. — No clue has yet been obtained to the murderers.

Indian Superintendency.

Gen. Milroy, Superintendent of Indian Affairs for W ashington Territory, has received orders to close his office, send general papers and effects to Washington, and turn over to tho various agencies such effects as may belong to them. — A fit of penny wise and pound foolish seems to have prevailed at Washington in this matter. It will take something less than fifty-three Saratoga trunks to hold papers, &c., for transit. There are six reservations with no agents to receive the effects, and Indians all over the country lying around loose -under the general care of the Superintendent. Tho Special Agents, with their red tnpeism, who from time to time will be around to fix tilings up, will cost more in dollars lin'd cents than did the Indian Superintend on cy. Of Gen. Milroy, we can speak only in highest terms of praise as an officer of the Government, a Christian gentleman -and —citizen. ——As—there are six agencies vacant, we suggest that he be appointed to look after them aS general agent. His Chief Clerk, Rev. G. F. Whitworth, is too well and favorably known to need any coni men<l a t ion from us.— Olympia , ll'. T. , D-iily Courier.

Hew National Banks.

Since the adjouriment of Congress, says a Washington dispatch, already about thirty applications tor bank charters Under the —new law have been tiled with the Comptroller of the currency. The majority of these come from Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Kansas and lowa, with a few from the Southern Slates. The ' amount applied tor is slav'd to be in the neighborhood of three millions-. It will take from sixty to ninety days to get these new banks hi running order, and the Comptroller estimates that there will not be more than five millions of additional banking capital available for business purposes by the time that Congress reassembles. Nine banks have sent in Kga! tenders with which to redeem their bonds, nending tlie cancellation of a part of their currency to tho amount of $1,000,000. Of this amount, Moses Taylor’s City National Rank of New York contributes $248,000. This bank has had no circulation, however, the amount in bonds having been required of it to secure depositors. Ot these nine banks ihci'-o m-c three lii New York City; two in Chicago, viz: the Commercial and Mechanics’; one in Lapsing anil one in Grand Rapids, Mich.; one in Fort Wayne, Inti., and one in Columbia, S. C. These banks do not contemplate giving np their charters, and are only returning such surplus capital as they cannot advantageously invest in business. —lnter Ocean.
