with more profit either for sale or for home
use and with less injury to their lands than
any other crop. Mr.. l.. has within a few
years brought moving lot of nearly fifty

Amazonia Items,

Farmers have about got their wheat
and oats stacked, and are taking a
breathing spell. Wheat is said to be in
good condition in this vicinity.
Minturn & Son, of the Amazonia
Mills, are grinding again. They
stopped to dig IA well.
A band of wandering minstrels got
lost, Saturday night, n few miles east of
here, and DIDN'T get in until nearly
midnight.
Stinson & Raiser's saw-mill caught
fire, late Saturday night or early Sun
day morning, but the fire was put
out without serious loss.
There was Il very enjoyable So
cial party ut Mr.. Braces, Monday
night. Mr.. and Mrs. Brace do the
agreeable to perfection on such occa-
sions.
The steamer Mountaineer passed up
Tuesday, on her first trip since she
smashed the ST. Joe bridge. The
bridge has also got over the effects of
the frolic.
The river has cut under one end of
S.inson 6 Raiser's saw-mili. The saw
yer, consequently, found no difficulty in
backing the log-carriage out at the end
of the mill, and dumping it into the
rivcr-log and all. The difficult thing
was to get it back.

A Fiend at Large.

The st. Joe Herald of last Friday
states that a few nights previous a gen.
tleman named Charles Dunaway from
Andrew county approached one of the
special policemen of st. Joseph and
asked where the telegraph Office was
He seemed in a great hurry, and as the
two walked rapidly to the Office, MI.
Dunaway said that a man named Amos
Devlin had enticed ayoung lady into
the forest near her home in Andrew
county and ravished her. The young
lady did not return home in due time,
and search was instituted. After several
hours search, she was found at the
scene Of the dastardly outrage in an in
sensible condition. She was conveyed
to her home, proper r%estoratives applied
and at last accounts was doing well.
Dcvlin left the country, and it was
supposed that he was ON the Council
Bluffs train that night, but kilograms
failed to reveal his whereabouts. He is
described as y man Of medium hight,
stoutly built, with hair cropped
close and a very large moustache. 1t
is to be hoped that the villainous scoun-
drel will be arrested and meet the ex-
penalty of the outraged law.

MeanneSS.

The wife Of a gentleman of this city
received an anonymous letter, the other
day, making certain alleged revelations
as to the character of a young lady liv-
ing in the family. The family have had
and still have, the greatest confidence
and respect for the young lady who is
thus made the object of an attempted
malignant "stab in the dark" Anony-
nous letters for the purpose of iniuring
the character Of particular individuals
especially young ladies-are certainly
the most cowardly and ~dastardly means
of accomplishing the DEVILS wicked
purposes. If a person has truths TO
reveal, and wishes to warn a family of
an unworthy intruder, he or she would
not hesitate to sign their names to such
letter-or better still, call personally upon
the party supposed to be in danger of
being imposed upon. This is not the
first instance of such contemplate prac-
tice that has been brought to our atten-
ton. Young men have frequently re-
ceived such letters referring to young
ladies to whom they may be paying
particular attention. We are glad
to state that these emissaries of a Jealous
and 'cowardly nature have failed in
every instance that has come to our
knowledge to accomplish the harm in
tended toward the innocent object of
their spleen. We would like to have
some of these busy workers Of Satan
discovered. 1t would be well to pub
lish their names for them, to let the pub
lie know who they are, that they may
be armed against them.
