Some time ago, correspondent OF the
Press suggested to the village Council
that perhapt it would be a good thing for
that body to do 10 appoint an efficient
night police. But the Council didn't
view the matter in that light, and conse-
quently didn't appoint any .watchman
of the night" Fortunately, since the
correspondent directed the attention of
the Council to the matter, no very grave
emergencies" have arisen during the
night time. But now, as the winter sea-
son is close upon us, and will find US
unprovided with a machine and necessa-
ry apparatus with which to eight fires
when they occur; and as the widespread
destruction of property caused by in
cendiary fires, Is becoming simply
alarming, we are not sure but that the
appointment Of night-watchman
would, in the end, be money saving

The lovers of Jesus and the little
children, have long desired a closer bond
of fellowship, one with another, in order
to thorough canvass of the field, and
better organized forward movement in
the great work OF bringing the children
to Jesus, as well as TO place the
county along side Of her sister counties
in the great Sabbath School Union or
ganization of the State. Each denomi-
nation doubtless has been doing what it
could, in its own way, and in its locality
But this Is not enough. We want uni
versal blaze of Gospel light, and heat
that shall not only burn in the hearts of
the manyx laborers who are already in
the field, but, that shall spread from hill
top 10 valley, and visit every household.
To this end at former convention a
committee was appointed, who have de-
cided to publish a call to meet in the e.
B. Church in Junction City at 1 O'Clock
P. NJ, November "a, 1874, for the pur-
pose of completing a County Sabbath
School Union. All arrangements have
been made. \ programme, embracing

All things are ready. Come and partici-
pate, assist and enjoy.

The Paris Figaro says: "Our tradi-
tions require that if one divides peach
with another he should proffer by pre-
ference the half to which the stone ad-
heres. Why? Since the stone adheres
that half must be the least ripe, and in
telligent politeness should, therefore
give instead the other half But this is
q problem that can not be solved till
some one tells the origin of the usage as
first stated" You can get over this diff.
ficulty by offering your friends whole
peaches.

A California paper comments on the
present false age as follows: "In these
days of paint, penciled eyebrows, false
hair and filagree, it is difficult to deter
mine pretty woman when one sees her
she is so completely the creation ot
art. The true test would be for a COM
mittee to call on her at her house, when
she wasn't expecting company-when her
natural back hair was gathered up in a
little knot about the size of a-well
most people know how it is.' The
handsomest women do not always ap-
pear the handsomest in public"

This powerful dry weather is rough
on the wheat; and, paradoxieally speak
ing, throws damper on business of all
kinds. The wheat needs rain badly,
and people cannot be aroused to the i'm
portance of buying new clothes, new
boots, or any extra amount of GRUB,
so long as the weather continues as
balmy as it is in June and as dry as it
is in the desert of Sahara. 1t will take
