SLANDER REFUTED!
TRUTH INDICATED!

How Jones, or .any other man" voted in 1852
is question of very little moment to most peo-
pie. Whether Irvine or Richardson, both of
whom are said to have filed the Office of Sheriff
acceptably in the past, shall exercise the functions
for the ensuing two years, concerns us but little
but the question in which everybody has abid-
ing personal interest is-Where shall We buy
goods? Where get the greatest re-
turn for Sur money? Who brought prices down
to the lowest living rates and kept them there
Ask these questions of any one who has taken the
trouble to Investigate, and you certain to get
this reply-At Wheelers store, in Brownsville.
Wheeler is the man who is entitled to your en-
couragemeut and support. You who wise
will do well to heed the reply, and maintain and
support the man who broke the combination. All
kinds of country Produce taken in exchange for
Goods. New Goods received every week. Cash
paid for Wool, Bacon and Lard Plows, Reapers
Mowers, Threshers, and other agricultural ma
chinery for sale. Go and see them.

found the barn still standing as before
Seeking an interview with the farmer,
the president accosted him with: 'sWell
Smith, why the devil don't you move
that barn !? / notified you to do it three
months ago." "You did Why, sir, l

On the banks Of White River, where
now stands the city of Indianapolis, was
built the first house in the Spring of

sleepleas night, and just at the dawn Of
day, just as the cock crowed, he repaired
again to the - House, and asked her
once more to admit him. She said
's3o0, you come in; no $500, you stay

After reading the speech OF Red Cloud
says the Marysville Appeal, we have
hopes of the speedy civilization of the
savages. Besides the poetic figures of
speech in which he indulgcs, the fact
that he fastened in his first sentence
to make use of an idiom that must have
been borrowed from the white man, would
tend to show his appreciation of the re-
inements of civilization. When told
that the Great Father had beed kind to
his people his reply was II cant see it. "
Probably his imperfect education only
prevented the con clusion of the sentence
that he could not see it ain that light.

TEETH SET WITH DIAMoNDs.-To
what extremes and follies the god of
fashion can lead its dcvotees is shown by
the following, which we clip from the
New York San Of May 10th
A brilliant fashion which has just been
invented in this progressive city bids fair
to outshine Paris in its lustre and ex-
travagance. Recently an uptown gentle
man of wealth and fashion conceived the
dazzling idea Of having his front teeth
set with diamonds. He conferred on the
subject with two of his friends, one of
whom is a lady of literary celebrity, and
all were so well pleased with the sparkling
novelty that they had large and valuable
frst-water diamonds set in their front
teeth, and on Sunday afternoon they
attended one of our most fashionable
churches on Fifth Avenue, attracting
considerable attention, and diverting the
attention of a large number of the con-
gregation from their devotion, by the
lustrous rays of their teeth On their
return home they were followed by a
multitude, whose curiosity had been ex-
cited by the dazzling radiance of the
brilliant circle. Should this fashion be
adopted, jewellers, lapidaries and dentists
will reap rich harvest, and will tend &c
promote good nature and cleanliness, az
the queens of fashion, especially those
who are thus fixed, will be continually
brushing their teeth and smiling, if fol
no other purpose than to show their dia
monds. Oh! Ye gods and little fishes
will it not be cure for sore eyes ane
empty pockets to sit in front of such al
audience in a church, theater, or opera
and gaze with delight upon the smiling
circle, and estimate the cut, color, weigh
and value of their sparkling gems? -

An Omaha paper which claims to be
we'll informed concerning the internal
arrangements of the Sioux tribes, regards
the grand pow-wow at Washington as
one of the broadest farces of the day.
Red Cloud, it says, is an Ogalallah Chief
who possesses but little influence with
the band he represents. Spotted Tail
is Brule chief and man of more than
ordinary influence with his band but it
is a great mistake to suppose that either
or both of these men can commit their
bands to amy definite course of action.
The Sioux care very little for their chiefs
it is the "soldier's lodge" composed of
the young men of the different bands,
which decides all questions of peace or
war Red Cloud can no more speak
for the Ogalallah Sioux, than for the
Cheyennes or Arapahoes. If what he
promises meets favor in tho soldiers
lodge, when he returns to his band all
right-if not it will amount to simply
nothing at all. Spotted Tail is much
more influential with the Brules, for the
reason that he is an able man, boasts
six wives, and all the relatives of his
wives are warmly attached to him but
after all, if the soldiers lodge resolves
upon war, that is the end of it.
