LaPOrte County Pioneers.

The LaPorte papers of last week, give
glowing accounts of the annual reunion
of the First Families" of LaPorte coun-
ty, held at Patton's grove, in the city of
LaPorte, on Saturday, the Goth of June
About 500 persons were present. Gen.
Orr, in the absence of the President, call
ed the meeting to order, and invited all
present who were so years old and up
wards, to take the stand. The following
named old folks presented themselves.
James Warnock, so, March %; Sylvester
Griffin, s5 in July; Mrs. John White, 81
August z; John Parker, SO; Stephen
Holloway, s.. Charles Ames will be
10 the 4th of next September, Phillip
Fail, IS last May, and Gen. Orr, who will
be 80 in about a month, were also present
Gen. Orr is still strong and energetic, and
takes great interest in public affairs. In
the eaalier part of his life his energies
were chiefly directed TO gaining property
by hard labor, strict economy, good sense
and honorable dealing. He acquired a
competency, and by his temperate habits
has preserved his strength of mind and
hody, so that now he seems to enjoy life
more heartily, than when We first knew
him, some thirty years ago.

Reduction or Wages i'm Railroa d

FIT. WAYNE, Ind, June 2S.-Consider-
able excitement was occasioned in this
city by an order issued by the Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad Company, cutting down en-
ployes in shops to halfpay. These shops
are among the most extensive in the
country, employing about 1,10O men.
After the panic, wages were cut down 10
per cent, and, a few months since, days
work was reduced to five hours at lower
rate of wages. Most of the shop men
have families dependent on them, and the
outlook is very discouraging. The aver
age wages of laborers, helpers, etc., is
now only 60 cents a day. This large
reduction will have a serious effect on
business and trade hereabout. The order
takes effect tomorrow.
The Toledo, Wabash s. Western Rail-
road Company, whose shops employ
about 500 men, have been three months
behind with the payment Of the hands
until yesterday, when one months pay
ment was given them. The mechanics
and laborers of the city, are compelled to
live from hand to mouth, and the bust.
ness of the city is materially affected.
All unite in hoping for better times in
the near future.

The Texas Grand Gift Concert.

Col. Gustave Cook, editor and proprie-
tor of the Houston Age, and who did
good service in the 18th Legislature, en-
dorscs the Texas Grand Gilt Concert, at
Houston, July Goth, and its officers, as
follows:
"Of Capt. j. Z. FOSTER, the Manager.
we have this To say TO those who are un-
acquainted with him.-He is a gentleman
Of as fair reputation for honor, integrity
business capacity and reliability as any in
our city. His character for uprightness
and fidelity is unexceplionably good, and
he has the confidence of our entile COM
munity. lie is sustained by and associ-
aied with the very best men in Houston,
in his plan for the sale and distribution of
his real estate, in which, by the way, he
has long been one of our most successful
dealers. His whole plan is fair, honest,
and based upon actual market value. Not
only rs an editor but as man we endorse
Capt. Foster for all we have said of him
in every Respect. We deem it proper to
make these remarks because his enter
prise is worthy of patronage, and he is
entitled ~ the entire confidence OF the
public. His object is not only legitimate,
but praIseworthy, and he can, if necessa
~, have the endorsement OF every sub
slanlial man in the city for all he promi-
ses. Itis supererogatory to tell who the
gentlemen selected TO act as the Treasurer
of the Distribution is, for every business
man everywhere in the United States
knows, or by enquiring of his banker will
readily find cut, who THOMAS w. House,
the largest private banker in Texas, is.
His word is worth million on Wall
Street"

the reach OF every one chance to draw
one of the 1872 prizes, amounting to
$146,000, in gold, houses and lands

We clip the following from the Saline
County Press, (Crete, Nebraska of March
26th, 1874:
Last Thursday, Mr.. Davis, two sons
and son in-law arrived at Crete and COM
menced hunting location. Up to the
present SINE they have located nearly a
section of land, in different bodies, within
circuit of four miles of this city; have a
frame house nearly completed, and are
preparing ground for wheat. How is that
for enterprise? They came from Wauke-
sha, the banner County of Wisconsin, and
We can assure them they have located in
the banner County of Nebraska. Mr..
Davis, ST., has cleared timber and picked
stone in Waukesha County for the past
20 years, and he says if the b. & NJ. Co.,
''or any other man." will move his build
lings into Nebraska, he will make them a
present of his Wisconsin farm. He has
gone back to that overcoat country,
and as soon as he can give away his place,
will join his sons in Nebraska.

While men may differ as to the essen
tial merits of the new currency bill, every
body seems to admit that it is a fair COM
promise of difficult question. 1t places
Congress and the President in far more
harmony than could have been hoped for
thirty days ago, and furnishes a much
better settlement of the financial question
than any body believed possible after the
Presidential veto. In fact, the new law
is tar better measure than the one We
toed by the President, and gives greater
satisfaction to both of the contending
parties. 1t was to be expected that the
bankers and contractionists Of the East
would object to the withdrawal of West
ern deposits and redistribution of the
national bank currency, but they cannot
dispute the essential justice of the meas
ure. Viewed from the Western stand
point, the outlook is very cheering. Con-
fidence is revivihg and business improv-
ing. There is general feeling Of relief
that Congress was able before its adjourn
nlent to agree on bill so fair in its
main provisions and so explicit in its op-
erations on the immediate financial situa-
ton. 1t removes several elements of un-
certainty, and to that extent gives conf
dence to trade. The result is already
noticeable in general improvement OF
business. There is every prospect o.
abundant crops and plenty of money to
move them. The West will have large
amount of surplus produce to sell, and
there will be 30 scarcity of buyers. With
the assurance that the present status OF
affairs cannot be disturbed for some time
to come, confidence is returning and capi-
tai is seeking natural and healthy en-
ployment. In short, there is every rea-
son to believe that the bad blood engen-
dered by the recent violent debates will
soon have wholly disappeared, and the
hard feelings to which it gave rise be en-,
tlrely forgotten in the career of general
prosperity on which the West IL about to

ELECTRICITY AND LOVE.
A lover in Arkansas, falling to make a
favorable impression on the heart of the
girl he loved, went to fortune-teller for
advice. The fortune.teller advised him
to try electricity on the obdurate fair
one. Thereupon the lover procured an
electrical battery, and after a good deal of
manoeuvering succeeded in connecting IL
with seat which the young lady was
occupying. At a favorable moment he
turned on the electricity, and the young
lady sprang toward the ceiling. But she
came down again, and, with the light
ming flashing from her eyes, caught him
by the collar, opened the door, and direct
