The American Agriculturist for

usual, the contents arc excellent in

tance and the faithful setter dog of

quainted with the locality, appears
very perfect.
Wednesday afternoon the Harp
er's again had a lively time of it, the
old gentleman, having too much
whisky aboard, undertook to play
the part of dictator, and didn't find
any servile serfs who were willing
to submit. The wounding of a step
son brought the battle to a close. It
was reported for a time that the boy
would certainly die from the effects
of the stab, but Dr. Marlyn gave it
as his opinion thai the boy could
attend the preliminary trial, and the
fierce edge of the excitement against
Harper was considerably dulled.

B. S. Morris was in the city Fri
day and renewed his interest in the
Jouuxal to the extent of two bright
dollars. He tells us that wheat is
threshing 10 to 14 bus. per acre
more than was expected. He con
siders fall plowing always the best
for wheat.
Hugh J. trailer, in company with
Dennis Sullivan came over from
David City last Saturday. "Huey"
has a contract on the A. & N. near
David, and will have it completed in
about ten days, lie also had a con
tract nearMilford, which he finished
some time since, and his work being
so good, he was given his present
contract. It was reported some
weeks ago that Hugh had "jumped''
the town, but he seems to have
"turned up" all O. K. Success to
you, "Huey," and may your shadow
never grow smaller.
,Of
We learn that Bro. Turner is
erecting a dwelling house on Ste
ven's addition, and intends moving
with his family to town. We are
glad to welcome citizens among us,
hut regret that our brother should
abandon agriculture and stockrais
ing, in which he has had such ac
knowledged success. Democrat.
That sort of " learning " is a very
fair sample of the general stock in
trade at the Democrat office, and
illustrates its customary method of
gathering and disseminating news.
We have an interest in seeing the
Democrat a very truthful, useful
sheet, and we still think that we can
succeed in bringing it up to a mod
erately high grade. It is necessary
fdr the editors of the Democrat, both
senior and junior, to learn that it is
best and safest to seek news at first
hand, and then disseminate it as
they get it. Wc shall endeavor to
impress this lesson on their minds
so that they will not forget it. but
always, of course, in the kindliest
spirit, and only to tlfc end that the
public may be benefited by having
one more neatly-printed, truthful,
conscientious newspaper. How
would it look to Mr. Crites to read
the following in the Journal?
. We learn that Bro. Crites is erect
inga printing office on U.P. grounds,
near the depot, and intends to de
vote his entire time to journalism.
We are glad to welcome citizens
among us, but regret that our broth
er should abandon the law, in which
he has had such acknowledged suc
cess. This would be tit for . tat,
which is a game that any one can
play, and we suggest how it might
he played, simply that Mr. Crites,
the junior editor, may see himself
in a glass, if even daikly.
We learn that Jack Riddle of
Silver Creek was accidentally shot
Saturday last, receiving (he contents
of a double-barrelled shot gun in his
abdomen. Two others with Mr.
Riddle were hunting, walking
abreast, and about twenty steps
apart. The man to the right of Mr.
Riddle was carrying his gun thrown
over his left arm and pointing to
ward Riddle, when it was accident
ally discharged. We learn that Mr.
Riddle is likely to recover, his
wounds not being of a dangerous
nature.
Some time since Lawrence
Bryne insured with Becher &
Price, iu the German Insurance Co.,
and supposed that the policy includ
ed grain. His grain was struck by
lightning the other day, and Becher
& Price, being satisfied that the iu
tention bad been to include the
grain, at once adjusted the loss.
g. A. i:.
A graud Reuuion at "Warren's
Grove, Butler Co., Oct. 7th, 8th, 9th
and 10th. All old soldiers and all
their friends (that includes every
body) is cordially invited.
Fires.
A citizen from whom wo get a
great many good practical sugges
tions tells us that on Sunday last he
was putting up a stove, aud found a
very serious defect in his chimney,
one that would have endangered his
building, just so soon as a fire had
been kindled. Knowing that
stoves will be put up from this
time forward till cold weather, aud
that 'chimneys are liable to be un
safe here, he suggests that every
body examine well before using
their stoves again, and that the
City Council appoint a fire marshal
whose duty it shall be to examine
all flues, and have any defects rem
edied. While on the subject of fires
we might as well say that the ex
cessively dry season has prepared a
great deal of combustible matter,
which, together with the high
winds we are having occasionally,
will render it necessary for every
body to be more careful of fire.
Those who have not already done
so, by mowing or plowing, should
now go to work, and thoroughly
protect their grain and hay stacks,
their sheds, dwellings, &c, from
fire. Don't delay it, because you
may be too late. When it has to be
done anyhow, the sooner the better.
The salutations of different na
tions would make an interesting
study for some one who has the
opportunity for extensive observa
tion. None could be more director
brief than that of the Pawnee who
has learned a little English, and who
invariably salutes you with "How ?"
Many western people are slow to
break themselves of this form, learn
ed from the Pawnees. Our common
English phrase, "How dy'e do?" is
but a slight enlargement of the Paw
nee's. But isn't it a little singular
that a thousand men each day may
greet a neighbor with "How d'ye
do?" and perhaps not odc of them
receive any other answer to their
interesting inquiiy than the same
question iu return, "How do you
do?" The man whose brain is filled
with business terms and markets,
may occasionally be heard to reply,
"No. 1," "Extra," "Fair to middling,"
Sec. ; but wc heard the other day an
atibwer in this line that was new to
us, viz, "Among the middlings."
How expressive that isl But of all
the replies to that important ques
tion "How do you do?"wc never
heard a queerer than "Well, I can't
complain," as though complaining
was the usual order of the day, and
the respondent would complain if
he had any conceivable excuse
therefor.

SSruinurdN 3iiical World.
The September number of Brain
ard's Musical World is out, and. as
usual, filled to over-flowing with
choice new niii-ic aud interesting
musical reading matter, including
all the musical news of the day.

new songs, and a "Romanza" for
violin and piano, arc given in this
number. These six pieces arc alone

$1.50 per year, and the publishers
offer it from now until January,
1SS1, or sixteen months, to all new

advantage of it. Send 15 cents for

THE WHITE SEWING MACHINE
Its Superior Advantages.
It is so simple in construction that
little or no instruction is required to
become proficient in its use. A child
can use it. It has a self-setting needle.
Its upper tension is easily controlled,
and after beimj once regulated, Is auto
matic, requiring no ehangc for any kind
of ordinary family work.
It is the lightest running machine
made, and is nearly noiseless features
which no lady can atlord to overlook in
the selection of a sewing machine.
It is adapted to any kind of sewing,
from the lightest muslin and silk to the
heaviest woolen or cotton goods, and
guaranteed to execute any kind of work
ever wanted in a family.
lt has the best treadle ever attached
to a sewing machine; it being so con
structed a to operate with perfect case,
and without fatigue to the most delicate
lady.
Its working parts are case-hardened
iron or steel, and so constructed that
the "lost motion" in all the wearing
parts from long and constant use can be
taken up by the simple turning of a
screw.
Its shuttle is self-threading, made of
solid steel, and carries a larger bobbin
than almost any other family sewing
machine. The tension can be" changed
without romovingit from the machine.
It has more room under the arm than
any other machine made, making it
very desirable for dress-maki.ru, seam
stresses, tailors and others, who often
whh to carry the fabric under the arm
without crushing it.
It has a device by which the bobbins
cae be tilled without running the entire
machine, thereby relieving it from wear
for this purpose, as, also, relieving the
operator of the necessity of removing
the work or attachment'), as is the cae
in nearly all other machines.
It has a double steel feed, or a feed on
both sides of the needle, which enables
the operator to carry the fabric through
either side of the needle, as may be de
sired. This feature, combined with the
large space under the arm, is found in
no other machine, and is an advantage
which should not be overlooked.
The result of this combination is the
"AVIIITE," the eaicst-selling, the
most durable, the cheapest, best and
largest family Sewing 3Iachinc in the
world. For Sale at Doland's Columbus
Drug Store.
