told are to be found perambulating

be careful about leaving their

children OF the forest; shonld see
that their kitchen doors and win
dows are properly secured, leaving
nothing in sight to tempt the ia
tive American to DO a wrong. A

trunk containing her wearing sp-
parel, placed in a buggy and safely
conveyed to Marion station in time

soon whirling away to Gretna
Green-W Washington Territory, and
doubtless have been, ere this, united
in the bonds of wedlock. The

ADvERrIsg.-Titus, Bourgardes
& Go. lost q valuable horse q few
days ago, and like sensible business
men as they are, they at once had
an advertisement inserted in the
REGISTER, describing the horse,
and offering a reward for his return.
Soon after the paper had reached
Harrisburg, a gentleman picked it
up and glanciDg through its columns
read the advertisement. This
brought to his mind the fact that
he had seen out on the prairie near
town just such an animal as was
there described, and be went out,
found the animal and drove him
into the pasture. A fine two hun
dred dollar horse is thus returned
without trouble, and with an out
lay Of but a few dollars. If you
have lost anything, want anything,
wish to buy or sell, trade or dicker,
advertise your wants in your county
newspaper. This is the law and
the profits!

THE CRop PRospEcF-Is gen.

In N0ON nOoI ESl AZ 6SS
orally conceded to be splendid ID
every portion Of this county, al.
though there are quite a humber
who predict that the average yield
Of grain per acre will not be as
large as that Of last year. Again,
there are others who tell us that
the yield on their farms bids fair to
be much larger than the harvest Of
'73. The acreage seeded to grain
this season is much larger than that
Of last, and our beliefis, based on
what we Lave seen oftie growing
crops, that the average yield will
be fully up to that Of last year, at
least in wheat. If this prove true,
tue aggregate yield will be vastly
larger than last year; and all will
remember the difficulty experienced
at that time in securing safe places
in which to deposit the enormous
quantity of surplus grain. Our
capacity tor the storage Of grain
has been largely added to since
then, it is true; but we apprehend
that our storing facilities, although
50 greatly increased, will be none
too large to accommodate the hun.
dreds of thousands Of bushels that
will seek our city for safe storage
and an early market. Those who
secure their sacks and storage room
early, will not regret it. While
the yield Of grain will certainly be
satisfactory, the price may not prove
equally SO. The prices paid for
wheat last season, and the predie-
tions that were made as to the
price the present season, have led a
great majority Of our people to
expect and demand a much higher
price than dealers at present deem
safe to offer. One dollar per bushel
is a good round price for wheat,
and many of our farmers declare
that they will not sell a pound for
less, and as many of them are able
to hold it, we believe they will do
so, unless prices shall advance to
the figure demanded by them.
Freights to Europe are ruling some
what lower than last year, and the
price for average Pacific coast
wheat in Liverpool is exactly the
same as it was a year ago. Prices
at Liverpool being the same and

finding q broken bottle and, soon

arrested an Irishman who was un-

on the reservations. We have
called the attention Of the proper

has been paid to the matter. The

value than the lazy Siwashes, and
should be kicked out OF office at
