Stone Wars.-A few days since We made

much surprised to find him doing business
on 80 extensive scale. Mr.. WHITE has all
the necessary conveniances required to turn
out the best Of work, and the rapid manner
IN which his business is increasing, having
now more orders for his ware than he can
fin, surely bear good testimony, that his work
is well appreciated. People Of the West gen.
rally seem to be undefthe impression that
nothing can be manufactured at home equal
to similar articles imported from the East
Now if people judge in this way Of Mr..
Wnrrs's Stone ware, they win make : sad
mistake. Wcwili assume the responsibility

Building.-In our rambles around town
the other day we counted up something like
twelve or fourteen new dwellings that were
being erected. We arc informed by men in
whom we can place implicit confidence that
this is not more than onc-sixth of the number
that will probably be built in this place the
present season. If there are so many being
constructed now, before the building season
has fairly commenced, we can not see why
this may not be so. If this does not bespeak
for Cedar Falls rapid increase to her popu-
lation, then We are entirely mistaken.

Z Washington 7bscaship stiN going aaead.--
We are indebted to Mr.. JACOB GRAVES, for
tho following cheering facts, SO strongly in
dicating returning prosperity, to- the farming
community, at least those embraced within
the Township Of Washington.
The farmers there, says Mr.. GRAVES, are
all busily engaged with their spring work,
and are preparing to farm it on much lar
ger scale than ever before He informs us
that there win he in that Township over one
thousand acres of Wheat sown, and other
small grain in the same ratio. 7,.sr
There has been about 81 500 worth of Ma
pie sugar and Molasses made in this town.
ship the present season. Mr.. GRAVES has
made himself $3.50 worth. w aEEAA
Mr.. G gives us little account Of what he
has been doing and intends doing in the ag
ricultural line, and though he could not report
for his neighbors, we may judge. from what
he is doing, that Washington Township can,
on the score of agriculture, equal any Town
ship in the County, He has sold, since last
fall, 5000 worth of fat cattle; he h:.s sown
this spring rs acres of What, and other
small grain in proportiorate large quantities,
and is to plant 90 acres Of Corn.
There vii be surplus Of grain raised in
this Township sufficient to liquidatc all the
debts of the farmers within its borders, pro-
vided Tho cronc do not fail alfoOethar Mr.
GRAVES says, the people in that vicinity are
preparing for the coming fair Of the Cedar
Valley Agricultural and Mechanical AS
ISOLATION, and we may look for big delcga-
ton from that Township.
We think that the farming public have
good reason to be encouraged by the prospects
before them, and we indeed hope that they
may not be disappointed. ga.

Death of an Estimable Citizen.
VIM T. Risler, member of the
Philadelphia Bar, died on Saturday
evening, after a short illness. The
deceased was prominent and active
member Of the bar, and was univer-
sally esteemed by a large circle of
friends His death will be much la

at Frenchtown, Hunterdon Go. n. J.
tomorrow, at l0k o'clock.
[Faom the Argns, Oct, 23]
A meeting of the Philadelphia Bar,
was held yesterday afternoon, to take
action respecting the death of Mr.
Risler, whose death we noticed in
yesterdays Argus.
Thomas S. Smith, Esq was called
to the Chair, and J. F. Brynes, Esq,
appointed Secretary.
After appropriate remarks by Ho-
ratio Hnbbell, Robert Palethrope,
John Titus, j F. Brynes, G. P.
O'Neil, John G. Kitchener, and VIM.
Fl. Ruddiman, Esqs
On motion of John Titus Esq, the
following resolutions were adopted
Preamble. Whereas, we have re-
Gently heard of the death of VIM. T.
Risler, Esq, member of the Phila-
delphia Bar, with all that regret which
is natural to the profession upon the
death of worthy brother and where
as, also, the character of the deceased
strongly impels us to this unaffected
expression of our sense of bereave-
ment -
Resolved, therefor, That whilst we
bow with becoming resignation to this
blow of an all-wise Providence, which
has thus removed forever from our
circle worthy brother, we yet de-
plore his loss with a sorrow as sincere
as it is humble.
Resolved, That though we are deep
ly mindful of our own loss, we still
tender to the surviving relatives OF
the deceased our coincidence in their
grief for this bereavement, more per-
sonal as it is to them than to us:
Resolved, That these resolutions be
published in one or more of the daily
papers of the city, and that copy Of
them be transmitted to the relatives OF
the deceased.
On motion, a committee was APP
pointed for the purpose of transmit
ting to the relatives of the deceased the
proceedings Of the meeting.
On motion, adjourned

Thoughts
The great political contest is over
and we are entering upon quiet times.
No more parades, harangues, quarrels,
and night shriekings, will modest Bell
ties, Breakers, Little Giants or Wide
Awakes, for some time, and every one
will have an opportunity to stay at
home o'nights with his wife and little
ones, eat apple butter and read the
Press. The politicians, like the swar-
thy individual we often hear about,
find ''their occupation gone, and such
being the case, we urge upon all good
wives to set their husbands to making
q winter supply of sour kraut. This
life's contradictions are many. Salt
water gives us fresh fish, and hot
words produce GOODNESS and why can't
six footer of husband rock the
cradle as well as carry torchlight or
attend the raising of liberty pole !?
We know of nothing more calculated
to make scolding wife and an up
roarious HOUSEHOLD than thesmell of Ker-
osene or tangleleg whiskey--the neces-
sary APPENDICES Of political demon
