Pittsburg, when he suddenly graspcd our
hand. He looks much better than we cx-
pectcd to see one just emerged from the city
where coal smoke is so thick that it hides
the sun half the day, we are told But this
is an exaggeration, perhaps, and Judging
from our esteemed friends appearance we
shouldn't be at all astonished to hear him
say Il is.
The basket of lettuce, onions and as
paragus, sent us last week by Mrs. WRIGHT,
wife of Mr.. JONATHAN WnlcHr, was most
acceptable. May the venerable donoress
be blessed in her basket and store. .os
The bag on excellent Indian meal pre-
scented us by our worthy and este.mcd friend,
Gen. WM BAILEY, few days ago, entities
him to our warmest THAMES. We are an
original corn-cracker, and know something
of the luxury of warm corn-cakes and but
ter. May our generous friend never want
for plenty of the good things of life.

The wheat crop in the timbered land,
in this county, promises, at present, an "a
bundant yield. 1t never looked finer, we
are told. We are sorry the same cannot be
said of the crop in the prairies and open
ings. Much of it in the latter localities
was seriously injured by the severe cold
=
weather in April, coming SO quickly as it
did on the heels of the warm spell we had
in March, during which time it had COM
menccd growing and was very tender, from
which it has not and cannot, we are told,
recover Some farmers, we learn, have
ploughed up their wheat fields and planted
them in corn. meel
Most OF the farmers in this county, we
suppose, from the answers we have received
to inquiries on the subject, have finished
planting corn. =
There was one or two days of fine
growing weather last week, but cold rain
fell on Saturday which cannot but retard
vegetation 1t was sufficiently wet before
the rain Saturday.
MIR. WILLIAMS, publisher OF the North
ern Ladian;an, was in our town last week,
and honored us with CALL We were glad
to learn that the Lndianion was in flourish
ing condition. 1t is an excellent paper,
and though not quite SO spicy since the ed
itor became engrossed in building opera
tons, as it was before, is worthy of the
support of every true patriot in Kosciusco
Judge FrLLER's mill, we understand,
will be in operation in few days. He will
grind Wheat, as heretofore, for toll.

Since the fight Of JACOB YosT, whose
apprehension on charge of larceny we
mentioned in our last, it has been discov-
cred on al examination of the contents OF
his trunk, which he left behind, that he was
the same person who broke into Mr.
PIERcE's store last summer or fall and took
a quantity of clothing therefrom. About
the same time Mr.. SHOEMAKER had several
hundred dollars worth of Jewelry stolen
from him, and it is now thought that Yos1
was the thief Yosr had been working
here for some time, and was generally sup.
posed by those who knew him to be strict
" honest, but it turns out that he was a
penitentiary bird previous to his coming
here, having been a representative in thai
institution from the county of Allen.
The election of Directors of the Gin
cinnati, Peru and Chicago Railroad or
Monday last, in this place, was the occa

tinction in Northern Indiana, to our town

La Porte, a fine specimen of Hoosiel
gentleman, who honored us with call, and
entertained us with his interesting CONVEX
sation for a short time

dance during the past week. The weather

vegetation to come forward very rapidly
