Presenting that few items might be
acceptable from this place. l will give
them as they are:
We are having fine weather at present
Corn in some localities looks very
good, but owing to the heavy rains, in the
fore part of this month, a great deal of
corn is late, and must necessarily be poor
especially ON low fields.
Wheat was rather below an average
crop; although Mr.. VIM Thomas, har-
vested about as good wheat as | have
ever seen in orthern Indiana.
Oats are tolerably goods but rather
short on account of the June drouth.
Whortleberries have been plenty, but
are about out OF season except the dry
landers, they are plenty now.
We had nice shooting ARRAY short
time ago, in which, Mr.. John Osborn,

Democratic papers are persistent in
asserting that the Republican majority in
Congress ought to have prevented the
Democrats in that body from passing the
bill increasing salaries of Congressman.
They should have done so; but there
were too many Democrats in favor of
the grab. The Republican members
thought the act would be popular with
the Democrats, as a majority of those
belonging to that party voted for it. 1t
takes considerable watching to prevent
Democratic Congressman from making
raids on the treasury now. No telling
what they would do if they had full
swing.

Burglars have been visiting nearly every
town in the Northern part of this State,
recently. At Laporte they stole from
Mrs. Whitford, a fine gold watch, $500 N

coin. Attempts were made to break into
several houses. In Lagrange several
houses were entered and property stolen.
Ii the thieves are caught they should be

Some of our citizens are anxious to
know whether the city affairs of Plymouth
are to be governed exclusively by Demo-
Gratis, or not. Several good Republicans
were induced to vote for Democrats to fill
city offices, with the delusive hope that
party was to BE ignored by them.
