Editors, like other shrewd men, must live
with their eyes and ears open. A good story
IS told OF one who started paper in west

to citizens who told the editor if he did not
come out against them they would not take
the paper. He replied that he would give
them '-smasher' next day. Sure enough
his next issue contained the promised smash

seated in his sanctum, when i'll walked large
man, with club in his hand who demanded
to know if the editor was in.
''No sir, was the reply; 'be has stepped
out. Take a seat and read the papers-he

From the Indianapolis Journal. *
The other day car load, more or less, Of
the private papers of JEFF. Davis, found by
our troops near Jackson Miss, passed through
Vincennes on the way to Washington. Among
them were all, or nearly all, the really import
ant letters that were found A few, no doubt,
were kept by the soldiers as curiosities, but
the greater portion were collected from their
captors, by order, for examination by the au-
thorities. Before long the public will learn
what revelations are made in these interest
ing documents, but we may anticipate full
er disclosure so far as to state that one letter
from Judge Wick of this city, and another
from Jesse D. Bright, both dated in 1861,
and full of the most virulent rebel sympathles,
are among them. Capt. Conner, Of the 18th
regiment was the fortunate finder OF Judge
Wicks letter, which he assured us, yesterday,
s'was q regular secesh harangue." He IN
tended to have kept it, but it was deemed by
the officers charged with collecting and for
warding the papers to the Government too i'm
portant to be omitted, and was, therefore. sent
with the rest. That of Jesse D. Bright was
found by another officer, who told Capt. Con
ner of it, and of its thoroughly reasonable
character; but it, too, was seized by the Oil
clal collector as OF 100 IluCn COnSeq utlCS "
be kept in private collection of mementoes.
If these facts will give the gentlemen partic-
uIarly interested any comfort, we are happy
to be the means of conveying it to them.
The discovery Of Davis papers was made
accidentally, we learn from Captain Conner.
They were hidden, or at least put away, IL
the loft of an clubhouse on the plantation be-
tween jackson and Vicksburg and while
Sherman's force in pursuit of Johnston were
encamped there, a soldier went into the out
house to get seine wood The boards of the
ceiling struck him as about what he wanted,
and on pulling one of them off the bottoms OF
two or three large boxes were seen. This ex-
cited curiosity and led to an examination,
which led to the capture Of three large dry
goods boxes full Of letters and papers. The
private letters were all neatly folded and EN-
dorsed-alI those in our hands, some of which
we have published, have been thus carefully
arranged-and packed in one of the boxes
The soldiers of course soon scattered them,
but when news of the discovery reached head
quarters an order was issued to have all the
important letters and papers collected and
sent to Washington, and thus but few OF
them have got to the light as yet.

facilities for the manufacture Of Leather. Mr..
English is entitled to much credit for his perseve>
rance and energy in the prosecution of his busi>
ness. He commenced on a small scale with but q
increase his facilities until he now informs US he
means to have one of the most convenient tanner
and currier establishments in the country. Mr.
English gives constant employment to about
twelve men, and pays them renumeratiye wages,
and so far adds TO the population and business of
the place. He finds ready sale for all the leath.
ef he can manufacture, III Chicago, at paying
prices and could if he had ten times as much
The money derived from his sae5 is brought back
and expended in Kenosha, thus adding to its wealth
and prosperity. Fl informs US that he can mans
ufacture Leather far cheaper than it eau be done
in Chicago, and selling tor the same price as Chs
cage manu- facturers, his profits are much larger,
There is a splendid chance for about ten more
Tanneries along the south side of the harbor, and
the ground can be had cheap We have but three
Tanneries, and they all doing paging busis

ments. Every man who makes his capital furnish

in that proportion.

Important TO Farmers.-We understand
that our business men and capitalists had meet
ing last Saturday evening at which some imports
ant and we think wise action was taken A
Wheat BhyIng Association was formed, officers
eIected, and capital raised to purchase wheat
The object of the Association is, we undere
stand, to keep the prices Of grain high in this
market it is in any market on the Lake Shore,
so that farmers bringing i'll their grain here may
always know that they will get as high price as
they would in Milwaukee, Racine or Chicago
The Association will be in the market only when
there are no individual buyers willing TO pay the
market price in The other Lake ports Then the
Associations authorized agent takes all that
comes in, and pays the market price. j. w. MER>
Ri at the office Of the Pier Co, we belive is the
agent selected by the Association, to make pur-
chases.
We consider this wise and timely well as
liberal action of our business men, and we doubt
not it will greatly increase the receipts at this
port.
ExcursiOn.-We mentioned some tire ago,
that an Excursioa TO Chicago was in contempia-
ton by the ST. Marks Church Society, under the
auspices OF G T Riordan The day has been
set, aud the preparations all perfected for Grand
Excursion On Monday next, Sept. 9TH. The iale

time Is anticipated. Turn out and enjoy your

The Frost, on Friday and Saturday nights
last is reported to have done extensive damage
to Gro. in various portions of Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa and Michigan, and in some portions of this
State.
In this part of the State, we cannot learn that
rIuch damage was done. We have conyersed
with farmers from nearly every neghborhood in
this county and the general testimony is, that no
damage has been done to speak Of. In some pIa,
ces on low groaud the corn and vines were touch
ed. We have not seen any evidence of frost in
the gardens of this city, though we saw it lying
white ON the sidewalks on Sunday morning. We
congratulate the farmers and horticultursts of Ke>
nosha on their escape from the ravages OF very
general frost. The Chicago papers estimate the
damage in Illinois alone, by the million.
