PRICE OF Wharf.-The following is

with our own ideas upon this subject,
and is consistent with the advice we

have already said.
"The present indications are that

As consequence, the markets of the

Editor Grange Aduance.
Our pleasant weather has changed
into cold. If we judge the coming win
ter by this past summer, think we
should say it would be a very cold one.
Owing to the softness Of the corn,
husking has been delayed, on the &C
count Of cribbing it. There are but a
few farmers hereabouts, but what have
some unsound corn, and if they place it
in the market it will most certainly
lower the prices.
The teachers examination has been
held in this town for the first time, l
believe. Quite number attended.
r. L. Reed is liked very we'll as su,
perintendent Of schools.
E. Cowell is still at work on bis
dwelling.
J. G. Arnold has been remodelling
the old part OF his residence, which I'M
proves its looks.
S. Irvine is building dwelling-house

Straw has not been wasted this yea,
as other years. Hay is a scarcity il
this neighborhood, and always is, as d
general thing, and straw is the best
substitute.
Potatoes are so cheap that some are
very loath to dig them.
Duck and goose hunters are on the

w. II. Otis.

We recently had the pleasure Of seeing
the gentleman whose name heads this ar
tcle in his wonderful portrayal of the char
acter "Lord Dundreary" in the play "Our
American Cousin" 1t was in this comedy
that Mr.. Otis and Laura Keenc were play
ing in Ford's Theatre, at Washington, on
that eventful night when President Lin
coin was assassinated by Booth and his
description of that painfully tragic scene is
intensely thrilling.
Mr.. Otis fully maintains the enviable rep
utation which he has earned by faithful
and careful attention to the art which he
has made the study of his life. He is the
| only person who ever accomplished the
wonderful task of reciting from memory,
unaided by book or prompter, the great
moral and classic play, ''the Lady of
Lyons" He IS inimitablc in his persona
ton of the different characters which he
assumes, and has clear conception of the
authors meaning, which at once bespeaks
the true artist. Mr.. Otis contemplates a
visit to Rutland at an early day, and we
can in all truthfu!ness, assure the people
of that town, that in the chaste recitals OF
Mr.. Otis a rare treat is in store for them.
Below we give few of the many favor
able notices that Mr.. Otis has received

the integrity of the American people.
Politicians may be corrupt, contractors
may be plunderers, but the people are true
and honest, they will expose dishonesty
and right the wrong. Each and every OF
these acts has Its own compensation. We
have seen the American congress throwing
politics and party to the winds and, with
an unparalleled unanimity, hasten to undo
the wrong Of the Louisiana returning board
and of the federal troops. We have seen
the same body hesitate not to stay the hand
which threatened the existence of popular
government In Arkansas. We have wit
messed the successful efforts Of Governor
Tllden, aided by the Legislature, to unearth
the canal frauds and punish the public
plunderers, and we have seen them, for
the first time, make it possible to punish
the Tammany thieves of New York city.
Postmaster General Jewell has resolutely
put forth his hand to punish the mail con-
tracts and mail bag swindlers, and to clear
his department of dishonest clerks and
"slo. hing" postmasters.
Is there not compensation in all this !?
If so, what shall we say to the latest devel-
opment Tie president has, at length, as
II said, awakened from his stolid indiffer-
ence to public opinion and has demanded
the resignation of the secretary of the in
terror on account of the "bare-faced
and garing frauds In his department.
Was ever the force of an enlightened pub
lie opinion more plainly shown ?" "The
world does move" after all. Contrast this
prompt exposure and punishment of fraud
with facts of forty or, even, five years ago,
and is not the comparison favorable to the
present day Then exposure was the ex-
ception, now 1t IS the rule. Then exposure
was the end, now it is only the prelude tc
punishment. More and more are the peo-
pie showing themselves foes to corruption
and msgovernment. More and more are
they demanding honesty, integrity and ca
pacity in official station. We seem to bt
entering upon new era. In the past there
has been much of fraud and corruption
Political influence and unbounded wealth
have contributed to cover up wrong doing
and screen the offender. Crime had 81
long stalked unchallenged throughout tn
land that its perpetrators presumed to'
much on the patience of the country. No
that there was more fraud, more corruption
than in times past, but that wrong doors
seemingly entrenched in power, becam
more bold and unblushing. At last tn
people became aroused to the danger ant
struck blow at its source. We pass from
the old century of concealment and immu
nifty to the new century of prompt expos
ure and speedy punishment. Let us thanl

Wheeler will have to go to New Orleans
again. They don't understand that COM
promise. The republicans interpret it one
way, and the conservatives another. The
conservatives claim that all conservatives
returned as elected by the returning board
are entitled to seats-and the presumption
is that if there had been the least doubt
about the legality of conservatives cleo
ton, the returning board would have dis
covered ii-and, therefore, propose to re-
place four of Hahn's men with the con-
servativcs they displaced and the repub-
licans say that, If they do, they will
adjourn the senate so as to break up the
legislature. We know not who is right OF
who is wrong, but the usual fate of COM
promises seems to be at hand, with good
prospect for another lively little political
fight

The president seems to be particular

he president seems to be particularly
unfortunate in the choice of his cosstitu-
tional adviser who presides over the in
terror department. First he had Governor
Cox of Ohio, who wasItoo honest for the
place, and was compelled to resign. Then
came Rev. James Harlan of Iowa, who re-
ceived some ten thousand dollars from one
OF the Pacific railroad companies with
which to buy his way back into the United
States senate, and he "steppcd down and
out" And now comes Columbus Delano
of Ohio with his sons hand, if not his own,
deep in fraudulent Indian contracts, and
he has been requested to retire. The ex-
perence with the treasury department was
about as bad, only incompetency instead
of honesty or dishonesty ruled the hour,
but finally model finance minister was
obtained in the person of Secretary Bris-
tow-let us hope that the new deal in the
interior department will result in turning
up a like trump.
