he was acquainted. One very sus.
piciOus circumstance was that the
lady WAS setu TO drive away from
the hotel with u suspicious looking
bundle; but those OH the lookout
lost all interest in that bundle when
it turned out to he sOiled linen
which the lady was taking to have
washed. There was talk Of having

done, and since they left, things have
resumed their wonted quiet, except
when some one pokes little good

Every well informed person will adj.
nit that as society exists to-day, the

the greatest Influence. 1t behoOves
every young man, then, to prepare
himself for active participation in
the discussion of civil, political and

The Firemen's Parade.

The Fourth of July was handsome
" and pleasantly celebrated in Eaton
by our excellent and efficient Fire
Company. AT 10 o'clock the Compa-
ny appeared on our streets, with their
Engine beautifully decorated with
flags and evergreen, and drawn by
four spirited horses. The procession
was headed by our famous Brass Band
and the city Council then followed
the Steam Engine and the members
dressed in fulluniform ; the old cred
Rover" Engine vas trimmed off and
in charge of Young America, and the
workmen in the cigar establishments
of Messrs. Quinn & Klinger and Ay-
ers & Filbert, in two handsomely dec
grated wagons, brought up the rear.
After parading through u streets,
the capacity of the Engines to throw
water was tested, near the Depot.
Our Steamer can't be beat-tha. is a
fact, and sufficient comment-and the
old "Red Rover" done bully under
the control of the boys. When this
exercise was closed, the Company re-
paired to the dining room of the
Eagle Hotel, and partook of an excel
lent and sumptuous dinner, served up
for the occasion by the host, Mr.. w.
c. Huston and lady, assisted by Mr..
Geo. Kelly and w. A. Cleveland.
Rev. 2. T. Sullivan preceded the din
ner with an impressive blessing, and
after all present had partaken to their
satisfaction of the substantials provi-
ded, the Mayor made a few desultory
remarks, when the Band, whose con-
cord of sweet sounds
-"As sweet and musical
AS bright Appollo's lutte, strung will
his hair"
thrilled the room with its melting
murmurs, aud the crowd dispersed.
The afternoon of the day was spent
by the Company at the Fair Grounds
in Gripping the light fantastic toe,'
and other amusements. The celebra.
ton was a success, and all seemed tc
enjoy it with the utmost pleasure
Eaton has a Fire Department and 8
Company of which her citizens may
justly be proud, and they should be
ever ready and willing TO assist and
encourage its gentlemanly members
in-whatever is necessary to render i
efficient in time of danger.

The Worlds Show Of P. T. Barnurn.

All questions of both a national, social
and personal character, seem to have
latterly been swallowed up in the fact
that the Great r. I. Barnum's Great
Travelling Worlds Fair, with its thou
sands of rare animate and inanimate
features, vast canvas city concealed
wonder treasures from earth, sea and
air, and colossal combination of circus
troupes, amid a host of pre-eminent
mirth and music monarchs, including
the phenomenal one, four and seven
horse bareback rider, the great Brazil
ion Lowande; Mime. Dockrill. the most
famous and bewitching of all eques-
triennes; Tony, the child hero; Luke
Rivers, the Crichton of the Arena; the
incompatible Leslie Brothers; Natha-
lilo Lowande, the champion of earlisthe-
mics, and VIM. H. Porter, the silver
tongued humorist, will move upon us,
in magnificent procession IN Saturday,

of time and space to reiterate the re-
peatcd proofs Of what everybody knows
that the great Object Teacher of tho
age is P. Il. Barnum, and his world
wide famous Museum, Menagerie, Car
AVIAN and Hippodrome the most stupen-
dous amusement enterprise ever pro-
jected, Press and people are unani-
nous in enthusiastic recognition, and
the Pulpit joins in recommendation.
Under these circumstances, the number

may be readily surmised, and the wis
dom of putting in an early appearance
is self-evident. =

MI. JACOB HALDERMAN, well and fav-

his residence in LarYill, Ind, on the
10Th of June, aged IA years. The Col
umbia City (Ind.) Posi-, speaking of the
death of Mr.. H., pays the following just
tribute to him:
"Perhaps no man in the county was
better or more f%avorably known than
Uncle Jacob Halderman, as he was gen
orally known. Simple and unostenta-
tious in his manner, upright and just in
all his dealings. His word was emphat-
ically as good as his bond, and his bond
would have been accepted for 4 very
considerable amount. The large mea-
sure of success which crowned his bu-
siness rendered him neither proud nor
harsh-he had a generous heart and open
hand. He had long been resident OF
Indiana, having first came to Rich.
mond when ayoung man. Deceased
was twice married. Five children sur.
viye from his first marriage, and hi:
widow and three small children survive
the second marriage. Deceased was {

CAL CURE for Dyspepsia, Sick Head
ache, Sour Stomach Costiveness, Bill
~iousness, Less of Appetite, distress after
eating and all disorders caused by indi-
gestion or a deranged liver. Its results
are astonishing, and sure relief is guar
anteed in every case where it is faithful
ly used. 1t tones up the stomach, reg
ulates the liver, restores the natural APP
petite, strengthens the delicate, and ex-
pels all morbid humors from the sys-

in almost every case be prevented by its
timely use. A very few doses will re-
lieve, and a little perseverance cure
