MINOR ARRIVALS

A boy settler arrived a few days ago
at the residence of DR.. Barber.
A little girl, about the size of an
eight pound pickeral, arrived recently
at the residence Of John Humiston.
A little covey of girl, and very large
for her age, arrived on Monday last at
the residence of Elliott Covey, in Elk
township.
The tax judgement sale took place on
Monday last at the County Auditors
office. We have heard of several per-
sons who are a good deal exercised be-
cause they did not know the day of
sale, and thus allowed property to be
sold. The notice was published in the
ADVANCE for three or four weeks be-
fore the day of sale and editorial men,
ton was made Of the fact. People
must read the ADVANCE if they do
not wish to suffer.
A St. Paul paper speaks of several
''exquisitely wrought tidies.' by Miss
Anna: Dean, of St. Paul, which took
premiums at the State Fair. On the
theory that St. Paul is Minnesota, the
Press is correct, but not otherwise, for
Miss Dean lives in this county and is
one of our, '.tidiest" young ladies. We
have seen the tides and do not wonder
that they took premiums. "
The Western. Advance has changed
headings and is now known as the WOr-
Ellington Advonce. It IS now entering
on tile third year, with excellent: pros
poets for success. Glad Of it; ought to
have it. Windofe Rcporter. = ~ 80

"Mr. Thurman: Will the Senator allow

"Mr. Thurman: wish to make this sug-

a State shall have a written Constitution.
It's Constitution may be like that of Great

if the word form be taken in its most

worth in case where there is no written
Constitution of State?
"Mr. Carpenter: That well illustrates
what I was trying to illustrate in another

thing to State or nothing; whether it was
meant to deal with the reality Of the thing,
or with the mere fiction and FORM"

THE MURDER OF NAN FOR WHICH AN In

Darnell was convicted and hung few years

the old peddler's body was found in mill
pond, horribly mangied, and showing every
indication of having met with foul play:
Circumstances pointed to the boy Darnel
and a man named William Lopez, who were
arraigned. Lopez, succeeding in proving an

seems no reason to doubt it, it affords an

TWO days, In which time four wills were
proven, and the county treasurer and col

has been enormously stated that the chair in

Dir. Brooks, of South Carolina, bad been
taken by him to his house. This is not so.
The chair was taken into the new Senate

Sumner, he having occupied it in all over
twenty-five years. The chairs and the desks
used by Calhoun, Webster, Clay, Benton.
and others, are also in the present chamber,
