OF Montcalm; J.. j. Woodman, of Van Buren,
and j. L. Cobb. of Kalamazoo, we're in session
here at the Morton House yesterday and the
day before. OF the business transacted bv the
committee the public in general, and the grang
er IN particular, will only feel interested in
learning that the committee have made a very
satisfactory arrangement with Messrs. Day 4
Taylor, OF Granville, to furnish the Patrons
OF the State with plaster. AS this is the same
company that supplied the order last wear il
looks as though there had been fair dealing on
both sides. -
The whole plaster business of the Grand
River Valley has been in demoralzed cond;.
ton for the last year. The erapeers os tbe
State were plucky and sustained their state
committees in most praise worthy manner
The whole plaster business OF the order last
year was done through the office OF the secre.
tary OF the State Grange. No change in the
programme was ordered, and the business OF
the next session will take the same direction.
II the farmers OF Michigan don't use plaster
next year it won't be because IL costs too much
In this matter 1t is generally understood that
the grangers made a success Of the business,
and came out ahead in the protracted fight
with the Plaster Association OF Grand Rapids.

TO THE PUBLIC.

We recognize the fact that there a great
many prompt paying men in the community
orthy OF credit and who appreciate indulgence
on their bills and to this class it would be to our
interest and pleasure to extend the usual
time on their accounts, bnt in order to accom-
MEDIATE them we are forced to run accounts with
many others who neglect to give their obliga-
tons proper attention when due, and finding it
so hard to discriminate between responsible and
prompt paying men without giving offence, be-
sides losing money ourselves we have deter
mined to treat all alike and sell only for the
money We don't mean to reflect personally
upon any one, and hope our friends will not
misconstrue our course but appreciate our effort
to reduce our business to cash. All will admit
that the credit system is running our country,
especially the merchants. Alloao as again to re-
peat that e do not intend to Charge Goods to any,
body, and we hope by strictly adhering to this
resolution to build up good business. We
know that many will abuse US but this of course
we cannot help. Don't get mad and swear that
you will not pat1onize such men, but think over
the matter calmly and make up your mind to
buy where you can buy the cheapest We are
now moving back to our old stand, which has
been fully repaired, where we will be ready to
serve the public and will guarantee to sell them
anything in our line at lower figures than they
can buy for elsewhere. Parties wishing to buy

In America recently, that is in the
United States, the custom has come up
of pronouncing them rigidly according
to their spelling. Thus we have not
only "War-wick," and "WOr-ces-ter, ;"
instead of War'ic and Wooster; but the
~Shawangunk mountains, which in u
youth, were the ShOngo mountains, are
now Sha. wan-gunk, with the n and the
L thrust into u ears; and poor Lake
Winnipissiogee, instead of its old name,
WtnipiSoukte, has every syllable given
to it that can be extorted from its let
tiers by a school-ma'm. Delhi, a name
absurdly given to a town in Allegheny
county, is called D~ell-high, when its
real name is as nearly as possible Datlg.
Still further west, Terre Hdute Is called
Terry Hut, an amazing conformity to
the spelling book. If an uneducated
man were to write its real name phono-
graphically Tare Hoht, he would not be
nearly so ridiculous as those who find
its name not in a word, but in an as
semblage of printed signs. In the city
of New York there has been of late
years a remarkable change Of name
effected by this rule of sprlling-book.
''What," said to me an old gentleman,
a member of a highly respected old New
York family, "what do these people
mean by Dez-bros-sez street, There's
n o such street. The name is De BrooSe
street." He then informed me that the
street was named after a family whose
name was spelled "Desbrosses" but
pronounced De Broose, and that until 1t
appeared on the street cars it was al
ways so pronounced. This solicitude
to conform sound to letter has become
q disease among us, 1t exists In no
other country and here 1t is due to the
school. master, the spelling, book, and
the dictionary.

Man is by nature a nomad nor does
he lose that character by civilization.
In primitive ages he wandered with his
kind in hordes, for pasture land, or in
canoes from isle toisle. This condition
of society still exists on the steppes of
Asia or with the Indians of the West.
As men gradually settled in cities they
still continued to crafty the Unborn
propensity by travelling for mutual pro-
lection and society in caravans. The
open hospitality which n or two
were wont to find in every tent was
necessarily inadequate to entertain sew
eral scores or hundreds, and the cara
vansary, or choltry, or khan, the same
thing substantially, under different
names, was built for the acCommOda-
ton of travellers, atfording shelter, but
generally 10 more, The guest being ex-
pected to carry with him bedding and
provisions. Men still travel in cara
vans, but generally not on camels; the
steamship, the railway train, convey
m|ultitudes from town to town, from
land to land, a ceaseless throng, inf
nitely greater than ever wendell across
the Asiatic wilds, or filled the numer-
Gus and well constructed inns which
Marco Polo tells us were so common in
Cathay. Inns have kept pace with the
increasing improvements in locomotion
and have gradually been subdiyided
with the growing wants of society into
various departments, from the ale-house
or posada suited to the uneasy husband
only wishing to wander n few rods
away from home, to the magnificent
hotel, in itself a miniature city, accom-
mod0ting thousands, and ministering
to most of the physical needs Of the
pampered scion of these later ages
