DEAR WHIsKEY.-Last week q
fellow was brought and incarcerated
in jail for stealing bottle of whis-
key at Cassville. 1t seems that in
company with another man he went
into saloon and called for beer;
while the bar keepers back was turn
ed the prisoner reached forth and
captured a bottle of whiskey, for
which offence he was arrested and
taken before justice Sneclode who or
dered his confinement in the county
Jail for thirty days. This bottle of
whiskey will cost the county only
about $50.

MINERAL THIEVES. From the
mines in various parts of this county
complaints are constantly being made
that mineral thieves abound and
miners ale almost daily losing miner
al. An united effort is being made
to capture the thieves and thus put
an end to their depredations. Jack
Stephens, noted character ABOUT
Hazel Green, was the first one upon
whom the severity Of the law is to
fall. He had been in the practice of
taking mineral from the furnace of
Crawford, Mills & Co ut night and
selling it back in the morning. 1t is
understood that Jack" has accom-
plices in that vicinity who are being
watched. Stephens was taken to
Benton and had an examination be-
fore Justice Wearne who held him in
5000 bonds for his appearance at the
next term Of the Circuit Court for
LaFay cite county.

time, it was the calves.
The farmers are busy stacking
their grain and this week, with no
more rain, will see nearly all the
grain in the stack. Some have COM
menced blowing and hauling out the
manure.
Judging from the way in which
our mechanics turn out new wagons
new buggies, &C.. times must be good
or else q prospect of good times
ahead induce our farmers to buy and
keep up with the times in the i'm
provements in machinery.
Our sporting chaps do not seem to
observe the game law very much,
as they come in occasionally
with nice lots of prairie chickens;
quails and pheasants; but fishing for
trout is vain work for they will not
bite, or else they are off to some of
the watering places" on a summer
vacation, at all events they do not
put in an appearance in their usual
haunts.
"A long petition signed by many
names was presented to our board of
supervisors concerning the keeping
of closed doors on Sunday by the sa-
loon keepers, and strange to say
many of the names on the list are
those who violate the prayer of the
petition whenever opportunity pre-
sents itself, but our saloon keepers
are remarkably good on that score,
considerably above the average of
that class.
In connection with the Grange
celebration here on the 28th inst,
will be q test of speed among the
four year old colts. The entrance
fee is five dollars to which will be I'D

comes, as responsible parties have

be left undone to make it an interest

THE PoNTooN The Dubuque Pom
toon Bridge is prospecting and meets
with great encouragement from all
parties on either side of the river On
Saturday last the City Council of
DUBUQUE met and resolved, that
they would lend ali proper facilities
to promote the building of the same,
and that they would petition the
county board of 10 Daviess county
to grant to John p. Quigley the right
of piling and landing the same on the
Illinois shore. From all indications
the bridge is success and when COM
pleted will be of immense advantage
to the people especially on this side
of the river.

HA- Rattlesnakes are more frequent
ly seen this summer than for some
years past. We hear of sew eral in

this instance was the Rattlesnake
weed, and under the application oil
which the person bit, rapidly recov.

results from bites, in this region.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
PIaffeviIle.

Harvesting is about finished in
this vicinity and some have commenc
ed stacking.
The work of fitting up the base
ment of the Normal building for the
residence of the Janitor, is progress
ing rapidly.
The firms of Buck & Eastman,
physicians and surgeons, and Bell d
Beebe, lawyers, have each dissolved
partnership.
The Grange agent here, Mr.,
Wells, is doing considerable bushes
in the grocery and dry goods line, but
he has sold only one reaper.
MIR. A. Wonzor has now the pleas
ATTEST barber shop in town. CAP
knows how to do good work, and what
is more always tries to do it.
MIR. d. Wilson has returned to
town and opened his grocery and fruit
store once more, in building in the
rear of Hendershot's harness shop.
The Changers have decided to or
ganize an Insurance company. At
their last meeting they rails ed $4,000
of the $4,000 necessary, but they feel
sure of the whole amount.
Mr. |. Basye is doing fine bus
mess in the grocery and fruit line. =
He keeps full stock of fresh fruits
and groceries, and tits seldom you will
find him idle.
The Teachers Institute is now
being conducted at the Normal by
Profs. Gardner aud McGregor. | have
not attended but learn that it is we'll
attended and that good work is being
done.
The new buildings are progress
ing finely, and will be an ornament to
the town. Mr.. LOTHIAN has com.
menced business again in his new liquor
saloon, this being the first of the build
ings completed.
A lodge of the organization known
as the Band of Hope, the object of
which is to instill Total Abstinence
principles into the minds of the young,
has been organized here and is having
encouraging success.
The firm of Hendy 81 Hamstreet.
proprietors of thebook store, has dissol-
we'd and Hendy is now conducting the
business in his own name. He is wide
awake, fine young business man and
has well assorted stock of goods.
considerable excitement was cre'
ated few days since by the arrest of
one James Russell on the charge of
stealing eleven hundred dollars from
Mr.. Shears, near this place. l have
heard nothing about the matter since.
There is certainly but little en-
enlargement for capitalists to build
up this town SO long as the means for
extinguishing fires here are so limited.
A fire that. with proper and efficient
could easily be controlled,
would now sweep away perhaps the
wealthiest portions of the town. Our
"city fathers" who have the best in
terests of the village at heart, should
see to the matter.
Notwithstanding the busy season
of the year. the show which visited our
town last week drew an immense
crowd. The proprietor understands
the great secret of success in his or any
other business, viz: advertising. He
spends four hundred dollars per day
in this manner, but the fact that $500
tickets were sold for the afternoon ex-
hibition, and enough in the evening to
defray expenses here, proves that it
paws. This show resembles Barnum's
travelling circuses of yore in one re-
spect, the reputation of its proprietor
has to make up for great many de-
ficiencies.
