Irish Potatoes.

Our farmers only try to raise a suthciency
of this valuable crop for home consump-
ton. Present prices in Chicago and Gin
cinnati has suggested the important fact
that we ought to make this crop a remun-
%erative one by producing enough for large
shipments. 1t would bring money to the
producers at a time when business is dull
and money scarce. Irish potaioesa are now
selling for FIVE and six dollars per barrel
in the Western markets. We get our po-
tatoes from the West in early spring, but
the West depends upon other places for
potatoes in the summer 1t is not an ex
pensive crop to raise, and there is more
money in it and less labor than any other
crop we can produce. We call the atten,
ton of farmers to this important item as
one that is well worthy of their considers
ton, and we hope they will realize the i'm.
~portance of giving it a trial. Any cror
that will realize ready cash in midsummer
and one that is in constant demand in the
West, is certainly worthy of an effort. We
offer this suggestion to those who may con-
slider it worthy of their attention. Po-
tatoes will sell at all times. They can be
produced in this country as cheap as else
where, and if our farmers will they car
make it a valuable crop.

Died.

DiCus
Mrs. lydia Dunn, formerly Miss Lydia
Guice. died at the residence of her father,
Jno. G.. Guice, on Saturday last. Mrs.
Dunn had been married but a very short
while; taking sick a few days after her
marriage, she has been confined TO her bed
ever since. She was an excellent lady,
highly esteemed by all, and the news of
her death will be received with regret.
The family and husband have the sympa-
thy of every one.-Frankiin Banner.
The deceased and Harry 7. Dunn were
married on the 18th day of February,
1877, and breathed her last on Saturday
night, June 23d, 1877. at II o'clock, just
four months and ten days after she had
been led to the altar as a loving bride. She
was taken i'll a few days after the marriage.
and she fingered from that time until she
was summoned TO eternity.
lydia was we'll known to many in this
city. She was a sister Of Mrs. Emily
Burke, who preceded her eighteen months
and nineteen days to that bourne from
whence no trayeler returns.
The family circle has again been invad-
ed by the monster Death. The aged pa
rents have bowed again their heads in sor-
row. and afectionate sisters and brothers
have seen with fearful eyes another loved
one taken from them, while another hus-
bands heart has been broken by the loss
of her whom he had selected as the COM
pauion of his bosom for life. The writer,
who loved the deceased as a fond sister,
shares their grief, and hopes that Lydia's
soul is at peace with her God in the re-
gions of heavenly bliss where sorrow and
pain are felt and feared no more.

local" 1t was one of those pleasant af.
fairs that are replete with enjoyment. The
company was really pleasant. The ladies
were handsome, and the gentlemen-well,
they were tolerably good looking. Mr.,
johnson occasionally enlivened the scene
with his amiable presence, and contributed
a great deal to the pleasure of the occa-
sion. Miss Sallie, his handsome daughter,
was conspicuous also in contributing her
share to the enjoyment of her guests, and
they seemed to appreciate her pleasant eff
forts with marked delight. Mr.. Chas.
Cunning was active, and manifested a great
desire that all should enjoy themselves,
and his courtesies will ever be remem-
bered.
We had refreshments, such as lemonade,
cake, candy and nuts, and all partook OF
tho'same with a kind of joyous freeness
that indicatsaa mutual enjoyment of the
occasion.
We had good music-vocal and instru-
mental-and the sweet voices that harmo-
nized and blended into song that evening
made the happy hearers wish (weimagine)
that those pleasant sociables would appear
~oftener.
We enjoyed the sociable very much in
deed, and We hereby tender our heartfelt
thanks for courtesies extended, and for the
pleasures of the evening.
