CASEY COUNTY NEvs.



RELIGIOUS Ed. Ballou, Of the Christian
Church, has just closed a series Of meetings
ut Concord. Several additions to the
church.
THE citizens Of this neighborhood are
again aroused from their lethafgy, and the
prospects for a new church are more favor
able than they have been at any previous
period since the question began to he agi-
tated. However, We can give You nothing
definite as yet. This we viii do when steps
Of more consequence have been taken.
Prospects are prupiiious for two, II not
three, weddings in this neighborhood soon.
We think Moore will take the Sweeney"
and not be disabled thereby. Edwards has
a "hankering" for "Pigg" flesh, which we
regard as wholesome and easily digesied.
Another Sweeney would ike to surround
himself with "Penn," to prevent encroach-
men,s. wilcher is fond OF "Meal." Ed
wards delights in visiting Mercer county.
Our teacher, n. b. n, will 1--WE think speak
for Cat soon, to take to Boyle.

CONSISTENCY! Oh, Consistency! thou art
Jewel. Simon Oh, Simon hast thou a
knowledge Of this precious jewel? How
strange, Simon, that you charge Us Of having
misconstrued your meaning with reference
to the sale Of liquor in Somerset! We sell
dom misconstrue the meaning Of one 50
explicit as you have been. fyou have not
openly advocated the cause OF iniemperance,
il has never had an advocate since the world
began. The position you occspy pertain
ing to this matter, we must say, is rather a
singular one. IL reminds us very mnch OF
an anecjute We once heard; A gentleman
sent his son out 10 look for hog that had
s,rayed from the premises. In his travels
he came to a water course. In travelling uI
and down this, he found that a hog had
been on both sides OF the stream; 80 b,
went home, and told his father lie "believed
the hog TO DO ON both sides OF the creek ?

expect to be able to influence every person
in the land TO become member of oul
Order. This does not, at all, look reason
able. We know there are persons in III,
