FRANKLIN TP.,
August s, 1870.

EDS. yorER:-There In but little
news in Franklin Township at pres
ent. Harvest il over, stacking mostly
done, and threshing commenced.
Since my last letter we have had some
fine rain that has benefited the corn
greatly. The quality Of the wheat is
excellent, could not be better; but the
yield per acre is not as much as was
expected. As far as threshed, the
average Is about ten bushels to the
acre. Oats Ii fully up to expectations.
Both the Surprise and Norway oats
have failed to come upto the big yield
promised in their advertisement. The
Surprise is nearly a failure.
All efforts TO secure railroad tax in
this Township have been abandoned,
az It would undoubtedly be voted
down. There have been some men
from Pleasant Grove township. In
here soliciting subscriptions to help
them out with their quota. They have
been generally successful in getting
them to subscribe In sums ranging
from ten to two hundred dollars each.
Politically speaking everything Is
a dead calm, neither party appearing
to care much about the Congressional
candidates. Although the Republic
cans would prefer Loughridge, from
the fact that he Is pledged to use his
influence to secure us mail route and
Post Office in this Township, yet. II
Stone IL nominated, he will secure the
full vote Of the party.
FRANKLIN.

AS 10 TnnLAED.--Mr. WIN. Cleland,
OF our City Council, hands ~ > copy
Of the Belfast Qreland) Weekly Nes0,
Of the leth ult., which h almost filled
with accounts Of thetremendous gath
erings Of Irishmen to celebrate the
memorable 18th Of July md to de-
uounce the Coercion bill,' then lately
introduced in the BritiAh Parliament
by Mr.. Fortescue. From resding the
accounts Of these meetiOgA and con-
sidering how unanimous and earnest
were the hundreds Of thousands OF
Orangemen and others there assem-
bled, II would seem plain that the
English Government might well be-
ware how it provoked further trouble,
now when European COM
plications offer 80 fair opportunity for
the iong-meditated blow for Irish
independence.

mad Doc. 1.-THE Democrat Of this
week has q Sensational item about n
'mad dog on the rampage" which
tends TO convey erroneous ideas. The
facts simply are, that Mr.. Jones, OF
this Up, came into town last week
With his dogs, as usual: and while lie
was here. one Of the dogs. q little fell
low. went into Kimbls's Shop and
"acted curiously" 80 that the folks IN
The shop thought he was mad. They
thrcw . bucket Of water on him, and
lac went Into some kind OF = At, and
then they killed him.

CROps.--The New York zr5bssne Of
tho LIST inst. declared tllat the Eastern
states are suffering from drouth, that
corn there would be light. and that
oats and hay fall short heavily. Sew
oral days ago the telegraph announced
that France had already ordered a
large amount Of hay from st. Louis.
Putting these things together, and
rejecting on the condition Of Euro
pean affairs, 1t seems clear that all our
crops this year must command good
prices, and that hay will be especially
high.

LEARN MUsIC.--Let us have . short
lecture:-Young ladies and gentle
men, learn Music. We don't mean
perfectly and fully-sor that would
occupy your whole lives, and 1t the
end Of them you would feel compare
lively Us beginners; but learn some
thing OF the art, enough for amateur
enjoyment, enough to put you in the
way Of learning more as you wish.
This is easily done. The elements Of
musical notation-that Il to say, read
ing Musician be learned by any
person, old or young, with about the
same labor and study ~ would be re-
quired for him to learn the common
Mental Arithmetic. And when you
have acquired these rudiments,) the
whole musical world is before you,
precisely as the whole world OF Liter
AZURE IL opened before you when you
have learned to read.
What good will it do you? This
1t will give you vast amount Of pure
enjoyment directly, wilt introduce
you to other advantages, and will be
q powerfulsAid 70 keep you from evil.
Let us give an illustration:-A few
months ago we visited an old friend
In Keokuk. One evening he took us
down town, to meet some friends Of
his at a private room In the Estes
House. There were there, q young
widower who IL q Banker, another
young widower who is Merchant,
and several other young men Of SINH
lar positions in life. They had plenty
Of money, and were perfectly free to
do what they pleased with 1t. "Here,
now" thought we yourselves, "there
will be high old spree, If not q gen.
eral drunk at the end Of It," Why
shouldn't there have been-as the
world goes? Those young men were
not exceptionally moral" more than
other respectable young men. But
what did they do? All sat and chat
ted few minutes, smoking the inev-
liable cigar meanwhile; and then a
couple Of violins were produced, and
two Of the Keokukians proceeded to
play some duets OF Pleyel's-no fid-
ding jigs, but real Music-Music as
Music, for the love of Muslc-and the
rest Of us sat and enjoyed 1t for the
remainder Of the evening.
Now, here are two points:-In the
first place, these young men might
have had "gay old time" and "made
q night OF II" with wines and liquors,
or worse, II they had desired; there
was nothing in the world to hinder,
but that they preferred the enjoyment
Of good Music; and in the second
place, this enjoyment really had an
ennobling and purifying tendency,
quite the reverse Of what the liquor
would have shown.
And this Is not an isolated and
exceptional case, but an illustration Of
a general and admitted rule. Learn
Music, then. not only for the direct
enjoyment 1t gives, but for the good
1t does besides.

pnoBLEMs.-If forty rods make one
mere. how many will make one AXE?
And II two gallons Of bad cider make
one gallon Of Champagne, how many
are wanted for one real Paine? But
all this IL as nothing, compared with
the fact that you can always buy the
very best Of Drugs, Chemicals, Medi-
cines, Paints, Oils, &C., at the lowest
prices. ut DR.. Scoles' Drug Store, north

THE LUTHERAN 8. 8. PICNIC day
before yesterday went Off finely. Some
10 or II wagons and carriages were
filled with members of the School and
others attending. The most Of the
day was spent In the fine grove near
the Rousseau Mill; and all present, es-
pecinlly the children, seemed to enjoy
themselves heartily.

THE YIELD.--Mr. Dixon, OF Indiana
Tp., gives 1t as his belief that the
wheat crop In that Township this
year will average 10 bushels per acre,
and oats 35. And Mr.. Rogers, OF the
same Tp., complains that the corn IL
going to turn out much better than
was expected. That's the kind Of
grumbling we like to hear.

MISSISSIPPI RIVER RAILROAD.

This important project in the success of

have fallen into energetic hands. The
Memphis Araiaache says.
The Mississippi River railroad moves on
triumphnntly. While the regret is very
generally expressed that Mr.. Mitchell, to
whom the enterprise is solely indebted for
its existence. should have felt called on to
resign the Presidency, everybody admits
that the reorganization he has effected has
immensely added to the yigor and certainty
of the work. lie crowns his reputation
by proving in this last act that it is the
building of the road that he has
worked for, and not the qualification

finances of the road there, Mr.. Grccnlaw,

BCTLER AFTER THE BONDHOLD-
ERN

General Butler, who has not troubled
Congress much of late, was heard from on
Monday on the proposition of
Mr.. Beck of Kentucky, to
tax the United State. bonds, 10y whom
socvcr held, tho tax to be collected at the
Treasury when the interest is being paid.
Butler has all along stood with the dcmoc-
racy on thi. question, and led that side of
the House, with a few republicans up
against the ramparts Of the "hloated bond
holders, or, IA, Butler has more recently
christenod them, the rascal bondholders.
