The mayor will veto tae ordinance repea
ing the ordinance restraining swine from rul
ming at large. This is hardly In conformit
with the evident wishes of the people as e.
pressed at the polls, but the fact that in
very short time the question will be sul
mitted to the whole county renders this a,
ton Of less interest. The ordinance, It seem.
cannot be passed over the veto, as Mr.. Low
continues to vote to uphold the law now i
force. If such a law is to remain on tn
statute books we hope it may be so amende,
as to make it lucid and efficient, which it i
not now by any means.
BOonvilie Advertiser:-"Dr. N. II. Hal
ris. of Harriston, Cooper county, has a fin
farm, one of the finest in the comfy, and de
votes his spare moments to useful expert
ments and intellectual diversion. The docto
has a fine large pond on the premises, and /
seems has been turning his attention oflat
to fish culture. The result of his labor Il
thus given in the Pilot Grove Bee. sTher,
was one drag made, and the seine was fount
to contain two of the celebrated German carr
fish. They measured respectively eightee1
and nineteen inches in length and weighed
nearly four pounds. The largest one meas.
ured thirteen inches around tho body. Thesi
fish are just two years old. They are q beau
tiful fish to look at, having large pearly
scales, which reflect different shades Of color
They have q mouth resembling what we cal
a suckers mouth. DR.. Harris pond is about
eight feet deep and of u considerable size
The surrounding country, Pilot. Grove and
Boonville. were well represented at the ssin-
ing.'" 2
A few of the friends of the Sunday observ.
ance movement met at the Presbyterian
church Thursday night of last week. The
meeting was opened with singing and with
prayer by Dr. Talbird. Minutes of last
meeting read and approved. The resolution
Of Mr.. Shewalter, in regard to Sunday mails
which had been discussed at the two previ-
Gus meetings., was, on motion, laid on the
table, The committee which had been ap-
pointed to wait upon all persons who kept
open stores and shops on Sunday, and request
them to stop doing So, made d report, stating
that all, or nearly all the persons visited had
agreed to close their shops and stores it
others engaged in the same business would
also close up. The report was discussed free
ly land finally adopted. DIR. Chapman thought
the civil officers should enforce the law
against siolators of the Sabbath. Rev. VIM.
NJ. Poag offered a resolution which was
adopted as follows: "Resolved, That we re-
quest all who have been in the habit of keep
ing open stores and shops on Sunday to cease
doing SO, commencing the first Sunday in
july" The resolution was adopted, and the
