How “Ithers See Us.”

A gentleman from the East has lately been on a visit tv this state, and during his travels passed over pretty rnneh all of Jasper county. He expressed himself to ns as highly pleased with that county and its people. lie is of the dptnion that Jasper will be one of the foremost counties in the state, before many years. He says its lands are unsurpassed in fertility, are splendidly situated, and being rapidly settled by an intelligent and progressive population. Rensselaer, he claims, is naturally a beautiful point, which in time will make one of the Itandsomest and most thriving cities in the state. All of this we most heartilji endorse. It is not the first • time we have heard Jasper county and her people well spoken of.—* Delphi Times. Bylug along your knit tin’ some time, and writ with us A week or more.
