and Superintendent Walters, had pic
mic to-day at Pickrel's Grove. Those il
attendance passed pleasant day in. tn
grove, notwithstanding the heat.
The Democratic demagogues are getting
shot," and are carrying on vigorou:
warfare against Republican candidates
to-day, on the streets. A couple of the
thinnest of them tackled young Repub
lican tonight, on the subject of Blaine
being a Know-nothing. But they made
no headway, as the young man was talk

company with Judge Miller and c. A.
Atkinson, we went to Bloomfield town
house, tonight, where Blaine and Lo-
gan Club was organized, with Richard

Vice-President, and T. J. Evans, Secre-
tary. The meeting was a good one, the
house where it was held-the school
house near the town-house-beingf full,
and many unable to find seats. After
the organization G. A. Atkinson was
called out and addressed the meeting at
some length. Judge Miller made few
remarks. Others were called on, but
declined to speak, as the hour was get

are wide awake, and will give a good
report, both in October and November.
The parties attending this meeting from
Jackson stopped over night with Mr..
Riley Corn and family, and the many
acts of kindness on the part of these
good people form one of the bright spots

at the school-house, were Mr.. Rupert.
Mr.. Evan Morris, and many other old
citizens. To show that our Probate
Judge creates an impression wherever he
goes, we give an incident occurring near
the school-house. Two or three young
