WARRKNsR URG Mo-, Nov. l, 1876.
EDITORS NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. AS q
word or two from this place may interest soms
of your readers, the following items are sent for
your disposal.
AS far rs known, the health is good.
The weather has been delightful, excepting
very strong wind duling the last TIVE or three
days. A fine shower of rain fell last night.
The town is beginning to wear a busy appear
ance. The streets are tOlerably well thronsed
about the middle of the day, and the merchants
seem to be generally employed.
The approach of winter is indicated not by the
GOODNESS of the weather, but by the quantity Of
wood that is daily seen on the streets. and 10y
the autumn leaves scattered on the sidewalk
and heaped against the walls and fences.
Green apples are very scarce. The price is
from 20 cents to 81 per bushel. Several loads of
apples have been brought from Benton county,
and from parts further south.
Hickory nuts are plentiful, and OF good quali-
ity. They are retailed by the grocerymen at
fifty cents per bushel; though. it is said, that
sometimes, on Saturday evenings. the gatherer
will sell them rs low as thirty cents. Many of
the school-boys look forward with eagerness TO
Saturday, that they may forget .'dull books,
and the .'tircsome CLASSROOM in the bIi,sf;,l
recreation OF climbing scaly-barked hickOries.
Politics apparently enSrosses but little atten-
ton, considering the nearness Of the seventh of
November. The small bows manifest more in
terest in government affairs than any class OF
citizens. They continue their political demon
strations. One party shouts for Hayes and
Wheeler, and the other for 1ilden and Hem
bricks. 1t Is rather amusing to see them con-
gregate on the streets and quite iedrnediy dis
cuss the probable results OF the election, giving
their views concerning the majority in certain
states.
Next week closes the first term of the Normal
School. when the students are to undergo an
examination on the branches pursued during the
term. Not IL few Of the students have expressed
o dread of the 'tOrdeal'' through which they arc
then to pass. The school is quite full, there
faculty are evidently doing excellent work, and
are thoroughly i'll earnest IN the education Of
those committed TO their care \ number Of
new students are expected ut the beginning of
the next term.
Has Grcenton become utterly quiet, that items
from that place are seen no more in the Intelll-
gencer? Very truly, w. ESS.

FACTS FROM MEN WHO KNOW.
From the New York SUM-

The National Democratic Committee

dred letters and dispatches last week.
and Hendricks clubs nave been OF gan
that sparsely settled state. The secreta-
ry Of the State Democratic Committee OF
Indiana writes: 1--WE are going to give
Tilden and Hendricks fifteen thousand
majority in the presidential election
From California the tldings are very
cheerful. A prominent democrat in
Ohio says: All the fellows who were
on the fence are jumping off upon the
democratic side" The democrats of
Connecticut are very active, and the
same may be said of Little Rhody." A
gentleman who has travelled considera-
bly, in Pennsylvania, and made speeches
in many of the towns and villages, says
the democrats have a good chance of
carrying that state, Notwithstanding the
frauds in the registry and at the polls
which the republicans will be sure to
practice. Hundreds of fence men in
Pennsylvania, also, are jumping off on
the democratic side. There will be large
democratic gains in Wisconsin and
Michigan. So far as New York state is
concerned, there is no doubt that she
will 60 democratic by a very large ma
,jority. Among betting men wagers on
the result in the Empire State are made
three to one in favor of the democrats.
Letters from the south speak with great
indignation of the action Of the Grant
administration in sending soldiers south
to sustain republicanism there at the
point of the bayonet.

The wheat looks fine, an, there is SO much of
it surely n" one will want for bread again Minis
county. How short the time seems since there
was very little wheat raised in tins section, and
many persons thought there never would be u
great deal raised. A look Mt our fields now
would cure chronic sore eyes
There is plenty of corn, and it is good, and is
being gathered in IL little earlier than usual.
Vegetables are Plentiful and too cheap; they
would taste better If more costly.
Irish potatoes are rottins some; caused, per-
full and can hardly be given away. Apples are
very scarce. Guess Well have to rob the opos-
sum this year.
But were provisions ever more plentiful and
cheaper than now? Truly we have much to be
thankful for. and can keep thanksgiving every
day. No need to set one day aside for pomp,
and show and great feasting; a grateful heart is
always thankful. But the reunion of u family
and friends is the great desideratum in u special
day, and 80 we should like to act on the presi-
dents suggestion, and keep one day;
Our -oads have been worked, and are better
than ever before, for which Mr.. T. has our ev-
erlasting gratitude, and now il any more of our
friends come out in carriages, they can enjoy

being broken.
Not getting the bridge over the Sni, at MoOt's
Mill. was Il serious disappointment to many.
1t would certainly have been IL great advantage
W II large scope Oh country; anu why Two or
three men should he allowed to interfere with

not wish them any harm, but had they been I'M

remonstrance, it might have kept the doctor out
Of mischief (po!itics), and been Of general ben
eft too.
There are some improvements going on. in
the shape of ie-ro0ling houses, shelters tor stock,
and some talk of new buildings.
Ed. Jefferson has gone to Ohio; not because he
likes Missouri less, but there is more money
there.
Mr.. Homer Is still here, visiting Mr.. Blocher.
Sumner Gay has been visiting his numerous
friends here. lie is looking well for an old

The rain. Tuesday night and Wednesday

are not SO pleasant now, although the dust is
well laid. How it dii rain! All the creeks and
ravines are singing in great glec.
Last week We were trying to keep cool, and
now we've got a big fire.
There is some talk of Il coal bank being opened
ut Moot's Mill. There is plenty OF coal all
along the Sni. Another plea for II bridge.
Wild geese, ducks, etc, more numerous than

deep baying of hounds carries one back to

At the democratic state headquarters
a Sun reporter was shown nearly three
hundred letters from as many election
districts in this state. They came in re-
sponse to circulars asking the following
questions: '.How many republicans are
there in your district who will vote the
democratic ticket? What is the proba-
BILE result on the state ticket as compared
with the election in 1874? Are there
any voters who propose to vote for the
%greenback ticket?" To the first OF these
questions more than half of the replies
are that from ten to fifty republicans
will enter the democratic camp. To the
second question favorable replies come
from nine out of ten districts, and to the
third query a great many negatives were
received,
