we don't want any drums; we don't

But these GRANTEES have all got

and the old men have drums-and
some of them two or three. Why,
when they are out parading, they
make such a noise with their drums
that one would think that we we're

National camn Nesting.

We notice that the Urbana National
Camp Meeting will commence on the
9Th of August Since every neigh
borhood almost, has a house of sufi-
cient capacity to accommodate all who
desire to attend religious worship, the
necessity of these kind of meetings no
longer exist. We beliye more evil
is done than good, from the manner
in which they are conducted, especi-
ally IN the Sabbath. 1t is true that
Sermons are delivered, Prayers offer
ed up to God by sincere men and wo-
men, and much good singing, and
some of the old fashioned
Methodist r made happy, but with
few exceptions these Camp Meetings
now more resemble County Fairs than
anything else.

a great many people think a news
paper should have about a page of

tors cannot make people break their
necks, commit suicide, run away with

up the material out of which the local
reporter delights to paragraphs
to be served up each week. Furnish
ing domestic news, when there is

blood from a turnip. When the po-
litical campaign is fairly opened there
will be undoubtedly plenty to read
which is of general interest. The
guardians of the people and the Ring

was a failure, and we were deprived
of a report of their deliberations

Rail Road Smash Up,

Mr.. SIS. Dix, our Ticket Agent,

of last week while tho northern bound
freight train was switching here, five

of the runaYays, twas impossible to
overtake them. AT Barnet's Station
they colkded withthesouthern bound
freight, which left this place but a
short time before and had stopped at
that station. The speed of the runa-
ways must have been very rapid, as
the collision forced eight cars off the
track, throwing the two Cabooses
down q tw~enty-feet embanktient and
part of the freight cars into the creek.
One of the cars was thrown so high
as to strike the telegraph wire and
break It in several places. There was
d. boy in one Caboos and a NAH IN
the other, and strange to say both IS
capped without injury. The loss to the
Road will be not less than $1,000.
