WHICH CoMPANY.-As appears
from an an advertisement in the Her.
tad, David Goodell, School Distri It
Treasurer in Fonnimore, ..claims to
have been defrauded by an agent Of
" The Rock RiueT Insurance Companv."
bnt does not say which Rock River
Belolt or Rockford. Weshall be glad
to find out which Company, because
for several years there have been
complaints of the agents of ore of
these Companies being swindlers and
OF ootalning notes by fraud, and also
complaints of annoying taxations
upon notes. In the above case
Goodell writes us that the agent call
ed on him with the names OIL director
and clerk, and told him that they
wished TO get their school house in
sured, but when he met them they
said 'we never gave our names, and
if you pay the note it must be out of
your own pocket" Soft would seem
the worst sort Of swindle, if not
forgery-according TO what Goodell
writes As we now understand it,
the Beloit Company is all right-the
OIL er scalawag concern Goodell
thinks the Insurance agents name
was Burrows. What Company does
he represent?
Painters ROLLERS. Many kinds
OF roller composition are offered TO
printers We have tried several of
these ready made materials, and find

One lot could not be re-cast An
other failed for want of suction or af-
fnity for moisture. And another so

N~AA A"hkh'b experience .
Mark Twain writes as follows from
Vicksburg: n.,{..
'nsAt dinner, yesterday, I helped myself
to piece Of pumpkin pie. The gentle
mon who he'd been so obliging to amuse
me ut an expense of $75, observing me
eat the pie, rose from the table with q
heavy frown on his face. When T had
finished my dinner, and walked forward
to the social hall, he approached with q
drawn Bowie-knife, and sternly demand
ed OF mo where was from. I told him,
after slight hesitation, that was born
IN Aloemarle County, w., and that /
was q nephew of Colonel ----. he
iIf that is the case, sir, you may con-
time to live; but, sir, L Thought, you
must be id Yankee from. the way
you ate that pumpkin pie, and in that
case, I should have regarded it as duty
to cut your throat 70 'r.,,
L thanked him very politely for the
high regard he manifested for the place
OF my birth. and my family connections.
He then asked me if took part in the
rebellion. I said, yes. He inquired on
which side. L replied on both; that I
was visiting relative of mine by the
name Of John M. Bolts, at the time the
war broke out, and that remained there
until the war closed. He seemed salts
lied with my answer, and asked me to
introduce him to Gen. Blair. ...
He told the General that he was the
first man he ever voted for that ho had
fought against; that the South could
never have been conquered if he, Col.
Jay Hhwker, I think he called himself,
had been in command, or if they had all
been like him. He had lost very heavily
by tho war. I think he said he had lost
an undle, nigger, q watch, and thirty
dollarft in Confederate money. .,.
