THE RENSSELAER UNION.

Thursday, August 13, 1874.

Prairie chickens will be lawful day after tomorrow. - . One of the best brass bauds in the State practices at Rensselaer. Do not forget the basket meeting at Alters’ Mill, next Sunday. Services both forenoon and afternoon. Apples are worth 50 cents a bushel in this market, potatoes sl, butter 20 cents and scarce, melons 15 to 50 cents apiece. Mr. Shaw of Remington has been appointed Mail Route Agent on the Tr'P. & W. Railroad, vice J. M. Arnout, resigned. Ladies who use white lead preparations to improve their comploxions should be careful not to wash their faces in water from the artesian well. Don’t throw melon rinds and other like trash into the streets, as hogs are not permitted the freedom of the city, and decaying substances breed sickness. During the storm last Sunday night lightning struck and destroyed hay and straw stacks on the farms of Mr, William Noland and Mr. Albert White in Barkley township. Died, August 7th, 1874, at the residence of Mrs. Sarah Lauck, her daughter, in Marion township, Jasper county, Indiana, Mrs. Catherine Carter, aged 73 years,- 8 months and 24 days. Her disease was dispepsia. D. Eckley Hunter will tell Jasper county school teachers how to teach school, when he comes to preside over their Institute this fall. D. Eckley Hunter is an educator from Bloomington. It is desirable to have a general attendance at the Institute during its next session. Brother R. L. Mattingly, editor of the Francesville Banner, was in town last night, and gave us a pleasant visit. He is one of the best young local editors in the State. Mr. W. R. Jones, another agreeable gentleman from Francesville, called at the same time. Come again, gentlemen. The backbone of the drought was pretty thoroughly saturated Sunday night. It is estimated that about three inches of rain fell. It was the only shower to amount to anything that has fallen here since the middle of June, Although it will do a great deal of good, it came too late for some fields of corn. The weather has been hot and sultry all this week. John Now els and Green Thornton engaged in a public discussion with their little fists on the street in front of Liberal Corner, last Saturday evening, before an admiring audience of fifteen or twenty spectators. Thornton frankly admitted Nowels’ superior logic and the debate was discontinued by mutual consent. Result: Thornton one black eye, Nowels one scratc’d neck and one torn coat, Justice Harding and the school fund sl7', and the a free exhibition. On Friday the 28th instant Mr. W. 11. Sayler will prepare for a trip to Missouri by making a public sale of liis personal property. He will offer one two-horse wagon, one set of double harness, three cows with young calves, one yearling heifer, sixteen head of hogs, twenty head of shotes, ten tons of hay, twelve acres of corn, one breaking plow and other farm implements, household and kitchen furniture, etc. Twelve months credit will be-given, without interest, on notes "with customary stipulations; Mr. Sayler lives in Newton township, five miles west of Rensselaer, and about one-fourth of a mile northwest of the bridge over Curtis creek at the crossing of the Bunkum road. Mr. Talbott, the great Hoosier apos- — tie of Temperance, lectured in this town Saturday evening and Sunday morning. To say that he is earnest does not convey an idea of the vigor and power of his appeals. To some his position may seem extreme, almost fanatical, and his statements overdrawn and distorted. Bntdrunkenness is a terrible, loathsome vice, insidious in its approaches, and its victims are frequently found among. the fairest and noblest of the human race. The desolation, sorrow, suffering, anguish, infamy and ruin caused by intemperance can not be too much deplored, and every humanitarian owes it to his fellows to assist in eradicating-this great curse from our midst. * . Mr. W. W. Redman, a commercial agent traveling for the well-known firm of Rochester Seedsmen, Messrs. .Briggs & Bro., visited Rensselaer this week in the interest of his employers. Mr. Redman is an agreeable gentleman, and was quite successful in this place, having perfected arrangements I with a number of merchants to sell i Briggs & Brother’s seeds. The goods . sent out by this house- have been ex- 1 tensiyfely used in Jasper county, and so far as we know they gave satisfaction in every instance. Fresh and always true to name, those who plant seeds furnished by Briggs & Brother and who propoxy cultivate their crops are never disappointed in a favorable seasonv We know this to be true from experience, the writer having more than once taken premiums at the county Fair on vegetables grown from seeds procured of Messrs. Briggs A Brother. ■ . >. VEtW"'

One of Widow (‘ls.-,cPs. little Guys collided with Charley Starr’s delivery wagon as it w.ts being brought down I street theotlier day at trotting" speed, j The little fellow was knocked down and badly frightened, but w;ts not hurt very much.

Remington Journal Jotting's.

Downing's great baling barn is full of hay. Dr. Hood liaiTfifenlrtcr Kentucky for a saddle horse. Ripe peaches arc .sold in Remington for one cen t apiece! Uncle Felix R.Donnelley proposes to go to Texas this fall. Polite candidates are thick about Remington. Seine ,of ’em may be tolerably tliin next fall, when the crop isJiarvesttd. A cotillion party in Jordan’s Grove is advertised for the 22d, and youngsters are warned to beware of “buckeyes,” which being Interpreted means, don’t get drunk. Rev. W. W. Curry, candidate for Secretary of State, lectured, upon the subject of temperance in the Christian Chapel at Remington, Sunday before last, “to a large and attentive audience.”

The State Temperance Picnic.

The State Temperance Picnic at Rattle Ground on the 18th, 19th and 20lh will call together the largest assemblage of people ever gathered together in Indiana. Our exchanges come with reports of active preparations for sending large delegations. From the remotest nooks and corners of the State they are coming to swell the ■ temperance ranks ami make a demonstration that will force the conviction upon the free- whiskeyites and all those that condemn the Baxter law and are in favor of the use of whiskey as “a beverage within proper limits,” that there hireTfb proper liTnits to a great evil —that it must be driven from the land altogether.. It can no more be confined to proper ligiits than any other wrong against the community. Those who consent to its use at all within any limit merely open the way for its use without limit. There is no half-way ground on this question—those who are not firm on the side of temperance, without coiidiJoiis or qualification, are agaiiist it. — Courier.
