one whose long experience in old New
Englanes renders o failure impossible
The cure we;speak of consists Of about
thirty acres of timothy and clover,
which the Doctor has experienced some
difficulty in curing in timesgone by.
Its generally understood that Mr..
J. G. Galbreath will tAke'an interest in
the store of A. L. Desge' & Bro, on the
retiring ofthe senior partner about the
first of August next; and, from the
. bargains we see offered there daily, we
judge that they are determined to have.
but little invoicing to do.
Mr.. John Il. Davis has been buying
stock hogs for Il st. Joseph firm. We
regret the necessity of farmers selling
their stock hogs ut this season of the
year, is we. bai.eve they will be in de-
mand Us corn cribs when the new crop
comes in.
We have had Il Little experience in
the hog line ourselves, of late. and
would respectfully assure You. that' WE,
would ts>Oon crawl in u nail keg and
try to roR ourselves up hill, rs to stop
llili-grown hog when he is fully per-
sulded to proceed in any given direc-
ton. We tried it once, and concluded
to lay down and rest at the intersection
until his hog>hip conludcd to return,
which was usually the case when he
found we didn't want him.
AN the crops in this ssctiOn are look
ing 1ins, aaId we are anticipating the
first and finest supply of young grang-
ers shortly. BRASIL.
FILLMORE, Mo-, June 30, 1876.
Life in Fillmore has varied but little,
during the past week, from its usual
even tenor. Last Saturday evening we
/ had lively little trial between the town
authorities and j. l.. Galbreath. Ess;.
The suit originated from the failure of
the proper authorities to remove the
carcass of Il horse that died about 6
O'Clock the Saturday previous. twas
left exposed on our main thoroughtare
for three hours, and was then removed
ut the expense of the neighboring citi-
izens. The suit was brought by Mr..
Galbreath, more to stir up our council
than to- reeoHer damages. lie didn't
like. the itleaCf waiiing the course of
human evunts. although the council
re:lsonetlirightly, that, by allittle patient
waiting, we would he saved the-eXpelse
of hauling off the carcass especially
rs the weather has been of late very ia
vol7ible to cremation.
Our newaoonveyance f1r carrying the
mail betsvcea Savannah :ad Fillmore is
complete, and in No. L running order.
and as We enjoyed the pleasure of a trip
- 70,
sucE'personS is max be lamenting the
prosgeesof Il trip.t TO our shore much
pleasanter ride than they have had over
the sama road fir: years. It's complete
with comforts from sun-shades to rub
ber blankets. land goes prepared TOR any
emergerey.
To-day we enjoyed our first bath in
the Nodaway. The banks are extreme
ly steep and slippery, and some Of the
boys who left the top of the bank sud-
/ denly. and got.in withoutexac:ly under
standing how, spent the balance of the
afternoon in the hopeless task Of trying
to get out without being obliged to- 60
back and wash Oft again. before they
dressed. We noticed one. poor fellow
who was in ecstaciesNvert tindinga good
spot to land, hy crawling over some
drift wood and, dead trees that had ac-
cumulatetl' during the recent rise; but
our heart bled for him when he discoy-
ero,lihe WAS coming out on the wrong
bank of the river. Viewer full. Of
sympathy at that time, being altogether
i'll the same river without boat our
selves. We remember reading seme-
where of. some peoDle. who being
washed, We're made exceeding white
and clean: but, with our recent expe-
ricnce fresh in our minds, we shall object
to irving the NodaH0N again..
