May we venture To say that we note an
improvement in the TRUE NoRTHERNER. May
it continue to grow wiser and better. But
what damper upon the many poets of our
county, that their illusions are refused. 1t

memorial to an honored member of our
household, but We editor has forbid, and we
refrain.
The quiet of Sunday afternoon YVES broken
in upon by the cry that the mill-dam above
the grist mill had given way. The violent
rains of late had raised the water until it
overhowed the bank and it could no longer
withstand the pressure. The water came
down with a sullen, ugly roar, carrying logs,
trees, gates, bridges, and everything in its
course with it, leaving desolate track be-

., Miss Alice Miner, teacher last Friday,
with an entertainment in the afternoon by
the pupils, consisting of music, recitations,
dialogues, select reading, etc. The pupils
show a good degree of progress the past
term, much to the credit of both teacher and
pupils The counting class of little folks de-
serve especial mention. Saturday the school
and others met in Gil. Hinckley's grove for a
picnic. The clouds were anxiously watched
in the morning, lest deluge mot sprinkle)
of rain might spoil the fun, but the showers
kindly went round and no day could be finer.
Judging by the many happy faces of those
engaged in swinging, croquet, quoits, and
other games, good time was enjoyed by all
in attendance. Not until the sun had sunk
low in the west. did the pleasure sec keIs
leave the ground.

What Happened to
Mr.. Joseph Beach.

STONE IN THE KIDNEY EXPELLED AFTER USING
DIR. DAVID KRNNEDy's "FAvoRIrE REMEDY"
ABOUT TWO WEEKS.
One OF the most remarkable cases that has
ever been brought to the notice OF the public
is that of Mr.. j. s. Beach, OF Stone Bridge,
Ulster Co., ". Y. Mr.. Beach had suffered
since October 18th, 1874, from the presence Of
Calculus or Stone in the right Kidney. No
less than seven physicians were employed at
different times, to whom Mr.. Beach paid hun
dreds OF dollars for medical treatment, with
only temporary relief from his agony.
BY the urgent solicitations of his friends he
was induced to try Dr. David Kennedys Fa-
yorte neutrality-suspicious. q marked i'm
provement from the first day he began to use
the medicine; on the 18th OF September he
voided a stone as large as could be passed
through the natural channel.
Mr.. Beach concludes long letter to DR..
Kennedy by saying ut will always afford n g
pleasure 10 recommend the "Favorite Remedy"
to those who may be suffering from difficulties
or the Kidneys and Bladder, or any disorders
arising from an impure state OF the blood.

The republican caucus on the I'd inst. was
quite an interesting affair, and shows
plainly the sentiment in Hamilton. On the
first ballot twenty votes were cast for Pack
ard, we'll known Burrows man, and nine for
other parties. The opposition, seeing how
matters stood, gracefully withdrew, and the
rest of the delegation was filled by acclama'
ton with Burrows men.

A young man from Paw Paw came over
here one day last week very much excited,
and rushing up town, told the boys that he
wanted to put up from one to two hundred
dollars, that the Paw Paw boys could beat
the Lawton boys at a game of base ball.
The boys told him that his chances for put
ting up or shutting up were very good and
that they would see to the matter. The next
morning he was observed driving through
town looking neither to the right or left,
but upon being stopped and questioned it
was found to be nothing but wind, and he
was the only Paw Paw chap that knew any
thing about it. If he can borrow that
amount and wants to put it up, the Lawton
boys will try and cover it. We don't want to
make him cry by mentioning his name.
