P.s.-The farmers are getting along with
their harvesting very nicely; the grain is
about all cut around here, and stacking is
going on briskly. The wheat crop is said to
be little better than the crop last season.
Oats as an average crop are perhaps not
quite as good as last season. Corn is doing
well and promises fair crop. Wool begins
to move, the price ranging from ffty-fve to
ffty-eight cents. The thrashing machines
will begin to run the fore part of the week.
and there will be new wheat in market in
few days.

From the Sentinel
WE SHALL SOLID GO FOR GRANT.
BY HENRY j. SAVAGE.

AIR-Suit Yourself
There il great commotion going
On within the country now,
And the politicians blowing
How the people prone should bow
Down before Tom, Dick and Harry
But we spurn their foolish rant,
And upon the day of voting,
We shall solid go for Grant.
Fret and fume with all your fury,
Spread the eagle, burst the gun.
Yet the people are the jury,
And can have the longest fun,
For they reason well and cipher,
And have seen the elephant
So, upon the day Of voting,
We shall solid go for Grant.
Those Reformers q who are blowing,
Better had themselves reform,
For the people are quite E1eoaoimg,
And can look beyond the storm,
And they know right well you're lying
When you Horace Greeley chant g.
So, upon the day of voting,
We shall solid vote for Grant.
Then blow on with all your bellows,
Kiss the cat and eat the crow
Ye are 'tarnal mighty fellows,
And may make an ugly show
But I swear by old dads breeches
That elect your man you can't,
For so soon it comes to voting,
We shall solid go for Grant.

In this paper will be found the advertise
ment of j. G. Aver 81 Co., who, in the sale
of some Of the best me dicines in the market,
have gained universal popularity. In al
most every drug store in the land may be
found the Hair Vigor and Sarsaparilla with
which the name OF Aver has become INSOFAR
ably attached. The success of this firm has
beef made, not by the sale of worthless nos
trums, but through the immense sales of
valuable remedies for various complaints.
The agent of the firm, A. G. Whittier, is one
of those men in whose hands his employers
business i, safe He has the interests of Aver
g. Co., in view, and, if he has not already
done SC, will, we believe, make his services
indispensable.

Let those having knowledge of the
strength of the Democratic party in this city
look round for those who are inspired by the
new order of things, Where is the enthusi-
asm? Where? There is a Greeley stupor
that is very nearly related TO melancholy
but no elevation Of spirit, no evidence Of
that certainty of success, so common to the
Democrats, brit so seldom experienced. The
Democrats of Kenosha are not ecstatically
impressed with the efficacy Of such lizard

A painful accident befell Charlie Doan,
son of Seth Doan, Esq, last Saturday even
ing. He was engaged in leading carriage
horse from the stable, and had hold of the
halter strap, when the animal une xpectedIy
lay down for a romp. Charlie tried to get
the horse on his feet again, at the same time
holding firmly on to the halter. In getting
up the horse struck out fore foot, and hit
Charlie in the right side. The kin was not
broken, but there was found the imprint OF
the horses shoe on the boys body. If there
is no internal injury, we are informed that
Charley will soon be fully restored.

We do not drive fast horse, neither are
we judge of horses, but the subject of check
reins is one that engaged our mind for a
while during the past week. There seems to
be no doubt that the check line initiates a
horse, and causes it to become restless.
During the hot summer months especially,
to brace back the Lead of spirited young
animal appears to be very injudicious. On
this subject our readers will find an article
in another part of this paper. Mr.. Frank
B. Fay, President of the Boston Philozoic
Society, 46 Washington st., proposes to for
ward, free of charge, pamphlets to all horse
men who will give the matter of check
reins their consideration.

The political campaign
Jon which we are just Gu
Iterlng, to determine the
control of our national af-
fairs for the next four
year, presents two very
striking and important
characteristics. The first
of these consists in the
most notable fact that
neither of the great polit-
ical parties Of the past
stands fourth at present
to challenge public recog-
milton and renewed conf
dence. The Republican
party no longer exists.
