The Laboring men of the Second Ward assure the re-nomination and election of WjlN. ftauWERS if he will be a Candidate for t he Council. It is reported from Washington tnat a row m tne Republican camp w liKeiy to occur. It is all the re suit of petty persona! spite between a few peonage politicians. It G.:if. Gakfieu will go ahead and attend to the iultlic business in buainess'way, without trying to conciliate this Senetorial Boss and that ho. need not. worry about having a united party.-at his back. No one s fooleiough to take he howl of a horde of pestiferous oflice seekers fo the voice of the people. The peep e ".who elected Gen. Garfield are at thir home, in ten thousand !hos and forma all over the country, &ttiendiog to ' uu " l usiness ; and wlien anoth''' president is to be elected they wJl be ti:e ones to do i . Because a few party leaders, great on y .in-public patronage, want to hit each other every elu u e thy get,

the party is to be torn by a disgraceful quarrel. Conkling and Blaine lust now, are entertainiog the

country by toe dignified (?) business of : political eock-hght. It maKes us think that the country would be just as well off, if some of our great men had never been born. One Councilman, is to elect in each ward. R. A, Foster has withdrawn as a candidate for Mayor. This leaves Henley and Dodds .in the field.

ByOui lElipox-to: Look out for the wedding. Mrs. Amelia Pearson, mother of Judge Pearson, is dangerously sick. Miss MiKJfiE Coffin has returned from Indianapolis, after a pleasant visit of two weeks. Miss Belle Rohkes has returned from a visit among her many friends of Columbus Ind. Miss Nanhie Duncan, of Bedford, was a guest of Hon. H. C. Duncan, of this city, this week. If rumor can be relied on, an Ind ianapolis gentleman will soon claim the hand of one of Bloomington s fairest daughters. Mk, Nichols and wife arrived from Florida, Tuesday afternoon. Mr. N.' thinks this is the coldest climate he has been in for some time. Bedford Magnet: Blooraington's Mendelssohn Society should favor Bedford with another entertainment. The Society has a reputation here. The marriage of a fair maiden of Bedford to a son of a very prominent family on the north end of the Avenue, is announced for the first week in May. I.ASTlTriday evening several couples participated in a social at the. residence of Prof. Houghton. Mrs. H. won the hearts of of all by her kind ness and hospitality. Always add a line or two on the margin of a letter to a lady. You can't imagine how much satisfaction a woman obtains in turning a letter upside down to read a postscrip. "Well I should titter," is the latest slang phrase placed before an admiring public by the misses in their teenu, and the talk of a garrulous person is delu atively referred to as a "lip concert." Inventive genius, in the slang line, knows not when to stop. To our young ladies who contemplate a 3a voyage, the following remedy for sea-sieknees will probably be invaluable: Lie down in your berth all the time, keep constantly on deck, eat spairingly for several days before you sail, be eu e to eat a hearty meal before starting, avoid dosing, eat as little as possible, take all the nourishment you can, ct., etc. A VERY SAD ACCIDENT.

Mortimer' Whitehead, gex-leoturer of the National Grange deliver d an interesting lecture, Tuesday, in the M. E. church, to about forty persons. The following suggestion from the Magnet will apply to Bloomington as well as to Bedford. "The town authorities should paas an ordinance preventing stock of all kinds from running at large inside the corporation, and ther. a pound should ue built ud all loose stock put in it. Then when the owner comes around after his hog or co--v, make him pny for the food consumed by the animal while in the pound, and a small sum besides, as a penalty tor not keeping it u p. The proceeds, after paying the expanses of the pound, could le left at tue cuspoea! i of the board of health.
