THE GREAT REFORM!
Truth is Mighty and will Prevail.

That beloved and much vcnerated
Father of our country, George Washing
ton, exhibited his peculiar trait for truth
fitness at an early age. The little story
of George, the Ratchet and cherry tree is
most indelibly impressed upon the minds
OF every generation, of this great, good
and glorious America.
Artemus Ward once said: Gle was bet

tell n lie, but wouldn't"
The Agents of the Great Fort Wayne

ter, equipments, etc, of that popular and
magnificent railway. To say that it is
the only direct line to the Centennial is
the truth. 70 say that it is the most sub
more money expended to make it so. is
ii the truth That it reaches all promi-

Harrisburg, Baltimore. Washington,
Philadelphia, New York and Boston, is
the truth That passengers can 60 Gf

Road, without changing cars, is the truth.
That the fares are always low as any 9th

and consequently the quickest route from
Chicago to Philadelphia and New York,
is the truth.
Whenever excursion parties are given
rates over the Fort Wayne rnd Pennsylva-
MIA Railway to Philadelphia, or any point

and no misrepresentation made. The

The Opera.

The following appreciative notice OF
the Payson English Opera Company which
will sing at the Grand Opening of Kings
Opera House, in this city, Oct. Sd and
4th, is from the Madison (Wis) Dsmosr
of June 27th:
This grand Opera was produced at the
Opera House last evening by Payson's
English Opera Company. The story Of
Martha" is told completely by music,
and in the very sweetest way.
A more enjoyable musical entertain
ment we never had in the city OF Madi-
son. The costumes were grand in the ex-
IRENE, and the appointments were all that
first-class company announces.
If not many of our music loving people
heard this rare treat, it is not our fault,
as we edeavorcd t" ost the public upon
its real merits. hen We say that the
opera was one of the smoothest and best
efforts this city ever saw, in the way OF
the opera, we speak the truth.
Every one is not only first-class sing
er, but frstclass actor and actress. This
was noticeable to all, and especially so in
the character taken by Mr.. Payson.
Again we say, it was the best piece OF
operate performance we ever witnessed
in this city.
The St. Paul Press and Tribune says
The ladies are truly artists whose equals
have seldom been heard here. Extreme
ly prepossessing in appearance, skillfu
in action and finished in vocalization
they won all hearts last evening. Mis-:
Randall made most enviable impression
ana no finer contralto, or more properly
mezzo-soprano has ever been heard in thu
Opera House. OF highly, bewitchins
presence; pretty, sunny face. and {
faultlcss style, her enactment of the char
acter of Nancy was nearly perfect. He
rich, full voice, followed the action O.
her part delightfully."-, and her remarkable
display of her register in the aria, VIII.
my Soul" won her most enthusiastic
compliment. Mr.. Payson appears to b.
in even better voice than when here be
fore His voice seems broader and NOR
telling, while his action is all that coult
be asked. The accompaniment of Mr.
Howard was perfection and aided great.
in the success of the concert.

From Westburg,


WEBTBURa, Sept 10Th, '76.
ED. BULLETIN: grasshoppers are
devastating this section Of the country a,
fearful rate, and If they remain here six
months longer, Westburg will be uninhab.
table. Mr.. WEIGH, an old settler, and
one of our model farmers, is one Of the
sufferers. Some days ago, Mr.. w. left
his coat in the field where he had been at
work, and on returning only few threads
of it remained; evidently the grasshop-
pers had swallowed it. We congratulate
Mr.. Welch on his good fortune in not &C
cupying the coat at the time, as he might
have been swallowed also. In another
locality, large hungry hopper attacked
a little German boy, eleven years old
The little fellow fought bravely, but he
would eventually have been consumed
had he not been reinforced by his mother
with broomstick. This bold hopper
was unable to contend against the boy,
and he withdrew, retreating toward Jesup.
In another instance, two large, square
shouldered, long legged, powerfully built,
hoppers, entered a young lady's room du-
ring her absence, and ate pair of corsets,
a hustle, set of false teeth, chignon, a
lot of cotton batting, and other articles
too numerous to mention, so consequent
ly the young lady had a severe headache
the next evening, and was unable to see
her lover when he called. could men
ton many other similar cases, but these
will be sufficient If any one wishes to
aid the sufferers, please do not contribute
any second handed clothing, but send
money, either specie or greenbacks will
answer the purpose, as the needy ones be
long to no particular political party. 1t
will be perfectly safe to send all contribu-
tons to me.
Quite an accident occurred in the west
ern part of the township last week. A
farmer and his boy were cutting and shock
ing corn, when the father observed his
sons great toe upon the ground, and sup
He discovered the mistake, however, on
to shock the article. Mr.. d.
J. Stephenson Jr., of Jesup, who says he
can make wooden toe fully equal to the
former natural one, has been employed to
replace the lost member.
The dancing season has again opened
in this vicinity. The first party was held
last Friday evening, at the residence OF
Mr.. p. Powers. At eight O'Clock the
guests began to arrive, and by ten the hall
and parlors were filled with the youth and
beauty Of Westburg, and adjoining towns.
The Charter Oak Band furnished excel
lent music, and the night passed away IN
pleasure LEX.

THOSE infatuated people who are pc.

The Waterloo papers note what ap-
pcared to be the shock of an earth quake,
in that vicinity last Saturday. Several
persons noticed rumblng in the bowels
of the earth, accompanied by slight
tremor of the ground. We have not
heard of anybody who noticed the pho
nomcna in this section, and conclude that
it possibly may be accounted for by the
peculiar qualities Of Waterloo whiskey.
