We invite special attention to the adj
vertisement Of Orange Judd Co. The
subject of fencing interests every one,
and much valuable information on this
and many other subjects, with about
800 engravings, are to he given in the

The Republicans of Indiana, through
their Executive Committee, have con-
cluded to change the time of holding
their State Convention from February
18th, to June 18th. This was done by
the advice of about 100 leading Repub-
licans i'm council at indianapolis, on the
SOth ult. A canvass of the said 100
showed Grant to be the favorite for
President, with Blaine second choice.

TODAY is no doubt an exciting day
i'm the Down East State of Maine. The
Republicans succeeded in electing ma
jority of the Senator's and Representa-
tives. No candidate for Governor got
plurality of votes, so the Legislature
selects the next Governor of that State.
Governor Garcelon and the Council
ON technicaiities counted out a goodly
number more Republicans than Fusion
sts, and thus changed the face OF
things, The Republicans threatened
rebellion, war, d., but finally petitioned
the Governor and Council to request
the opinion of the Supreme Court,
which was done. .s.af ns.--..i ,s
The Supreme Court members are all Re
publicans, and decided against the Gov
ernor and Council and the Fusionists
claim it is a partisan decision, and urge
the Council TO disregard it. As yet,
there has been no clash of arms, but
things look squally, and they are prob
ably fighting there right now. We
will advise our readers Of the particu-
lars next week. 80 'fi y

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. BALL.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES BALL.
The crowning event of the holiday
season was that of the Leap Mas
querade ball given by the young ladies
of town at Masonic Hall on New Years
night. Invitations issued week OF
more previous to the occasion had put
our little city in quite II qui oice, and, as
the time drew near the interest and ex-
citement grew intense. The anticipa-
ton, however, was not fully realized
until the giddy throng assembled and
the dance began. As it is Leap Year,
partners i'm the dance. Many amusing
incidents occurred during the evening
For instance, a round dance would be
called-a lady would select gen.
tleman to dance, and if he could
not dance round dances, he would re.
mark that he didn't go that gait. About
IL o'clock supper was annouced, the
young ladies escorted the gentlemen ul
to supper, when the masks We're lifted
and a general laugh ensued. The table
which reached entirely across the room
was supplied with everything that the
most delicate appetite could desire ol
wish. After supper the dance was re
sumed, which was kept up to quite ;
late hour. The costumes of the youns
ladies were marked for their eleganc,
and beauty, while those of the gentle
men We're handsome and appropriate

How is that for check Just
when Michigan got d warranty deed
to Dakota, we cannot say. How
does the appointment belong t.
Michigan? Is it because there are
no men in Dakota SO capable as Mr.

that Dakotaians have no rights they

that Dakota is out Of gubernatoria

deplorable endeavors to reach aid.
although glance at the map will
show that their base was in far less

probably exists. Where nature had
not anticipated my party (Which she
had done in the majority of cases of

it is hard to place a close estimate
upon the number inferred, which,
roughly speaking, varies from twenty
