paying visit Of few days lately to
his son DIR. j. Baird, Of Gosport, this
County. Mr.. Is. has been looking
around the country In the vicinity Of
Gosport; and he informs us that in n
little strip Of two-and-a-half by four
miles area, In the western part of
Washington Township, there are
just 1910 acres planted In corn this
season, as he ascertained by personal
inquiry. just think OF II: almost
one-third Of the whole of this named
area in corn! Counting only 40 bush
els to the acre, we shall have II 600
bushels Of corn next Fall from this
little nook In Washington Township
alone. At this rate, Marion County
would produce 1856, 400 bushels OF
corn per annum, whereas 1t did ralse,
in 1868, as per last Census, 1858, 6G4
bushels. Who says Marion County

ner OF Mr.. Conrey's death In Kansas,
referred to elsewhere, IL written
home to her relatives here by Mrs.
VIM. Gamble, formerly Of this place,
whose authority was q man who
witnessed the whole affair. This
statement Is to the effect that the
man Kerns had previously shot and
killed man, and then kicked his
corpse after he fell. COnrey pro-
nounced this to be a mean and
cowardly act. Kerns heard OF this
remark, and came after Conrey, and
upon meeting him shot at him,
him In the arm. Conrey
then went of and got revolver, and
stopped in at some place and had his
arm dressed. While he was yet at
this, Kerns came along to the place
where Conrey was. The two men

ED. VoTER:-This part of the
country, Southwest Missouri, is suf-
fering very much for want Of rain.
There has been no rain here, worth
mentioning, since last Fall. Wheat,
oats and corn are suffering very much,
and the prospect for rain Is rather
dull. Farmers begin to expressfears
that everything is going to dry up
and blow off this Summer. But not
withstanding all this, immigration
is rapidly pouring in; the country is
being settled up by Northern men;
Railroads are being built allover the
country; and an unusual degree of
enterprise Is being made manifest in
these parts.
On the night Of the 9th, and during
all the next day, perfect gale Of
wind swept over this country. level-

UNRULY BEHAyIoR-A An ora
settler" writes to us that some boys
and young pen FROM 81 9F1xi pe !s have =
lately got II the habit qf sgolsg OUT
to the battling place On White brEeast
creek, northwest az toypp, on Sabbath ,
days, and shooting, swearing hallo6-
ing, and exposing their perPns IN an
unseemly manner, to such hn extent
as to be really offensive and trouble
some, especially to persons who pass
along the road. We do not know
who they may be, apd have no idea
what individuals are guilty Of this
conduct; but let them be who they
may, such actions are q shame TO
them, q dissertation Of the Sabbath,
and an offense to the community.
Here in town, so far as we have per-
sonally observed, the conduct OF the
boys and young men is in the main
decOrOus and TestTained-mOre 30
than in any other town we know Of.
But wickedness and unruly conduct
out in the woods are as bad intrinsic
ally as they are in town. The Sab
bath Is as much to be respected there
as here. And people passing along
the road out there have the same
rights and are entitled to the same
courtesy as people here in town,
Boys. there is plenty Of room for in
nocent amusement, without: disturb
ing others. Let vs. hope that those
who have done wrong In these re-
spects will restrain themselves In
the future. 5,,,,,,. usoe-
