It is the worst kind of economy to deprive the family of a good local paper. A singular accident happened to the wife of Frank McPhetridge one day kst week. She was attending to her chickens - when a rooster ... made a savage attack on her striking her with its spurs in the face, one spur being broken off and left buried in the flesh. The wounds were extremely painful, but not serious. Frank fired about twenty shots1 at that-old rooster before he could kill it.

You Democrats have got the laugh on us bad, said a noted local Republican politician to the Courier. You have not enly got the laugh on us, but you arc also getting the offices. Another Democrat was appointed this week, said he. He. is from Brown county, and his name is A. Donaldson, The Couisisn protested that Mr. Donaldson could not consistently be a Democrat when he was Secretary of the Republican Central Committee, but the talker insisted upon his point, and added that no genuine Republican could get an office. Said he further : We used to laugh at yon fellows about MeGee coming over here from Brown and feeding on fat offices all the time, but another Democrat comes over hero; flops over to the Republicans and after being a standing candidate for every thing in sight ever since he has been here finally gets an office, and men who have been life-long Republicans and who have spent their money and done the dirty work of the party are expect to approve of it, aud keep silent for fear of injur ing th party, I would rather straight out Democrats should have the offices, and hereafter I am in favor of appointing t iem. Get me up .a petition, and I will get nine-tenths of the Republicans of this tojvxt to sign it to retain the present Postmaster until his time is outr and after that I am in favor of appointing him for four years more. It would bo in keeping with the appointment of Pittman and McGinnis,than whom two more radical politicians and wire-pullers never lived. "Offensive partisan," is a mild name for it. I tell you there is going to be hell on the Wabash the next campaign. We are loaded to the brim, and are going after. Republican scalps, local and otherwise.
