1t was our good fortune on Friday Last to re,
.csive call from AaaiAasA b4wossA~sfxs ~
Joseph Co., Indiara. He was returning from 4
tour which embraced Iowa City. Burlington.
DesMoincs and Council Bluffs in its range, and
he gives us the most fattering reports Of the
crops throughout the State. He thinks Nc
GREcoR is little too narrow" for the spread
the Times occasionally INDUCES III relation to
ito future greatness, but he admits that no land
on earth ever smiled with such abundance or
charmed with such beauty rs the large territory
tributary to this same McGresor. When
AARoN comes to see US five years hence, we will
show him city that will ''pale the Intellectual
fires" of most Hoosier towns.
Speaking Of Indiana, reminds us that the
South Bend Regiser Of last week contained
some items which will be Of interest to many
of our readers: Thos. Ripple was shot by
Erastus Wheeler, and death will probably
ensue. Mr.. Ripple IF the one we knew was a
simple man, almost an idiot, and we cannot
imagine what he would do TO deserve death at
the hands of another. Mr.. Pavey and Samuel
Vail, Of Tere Coupcc, were drowned on Hud-
son Lake near New Carlisle while fishing
They foolishly got to tussling in the boat and
upset it. We knew Mr.. Paycy well he was
good citizen and had great many friends
Defrees and Chess of the well known "Indiana
Company" at Pixies Peak, arrived at home
South Bend a few days ago. They had sold
their claims for IS to $4,000, and the ether
South Bend boys will all be home in September;
they advise no one to 60 there to mine till next
spring, ~ the SHOWS commence falling early in
the Autumn and mining cannot be profitable
through the winter.
The return of these gentlemen is not regard
ed as q favorable indication, but when young
men suddenly cone into the possession of what
to them is large fortune, it is not strange that
they want to be congratulated personally BY
their friends at home. We shall know moro
about these mines if we live longer.
