FROM ANOTHER CONFECTIONERY.

FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.
The abundant crop of wild berries
has been garnered, and so far as The
supply is concerned, all can say, let
Winter come.
Mr.. Stright has his mill in almost
running order at this writing, and ere
this reaches your numerous readers
the saw will be doing its work in first
class style.
Mrs. Shimp, who has for several
weeks past been visiting ber son, Rev.
j. H. Shimp, has returned home,
bearing the good wishes Of all with
whom she became acquainted during
her stay among us. Mrs. Kealer,
mother of the Pastors better half, is
on a visit at the parsonage. We wish
her a pleasant stay among us, and
hope she may be favorably impressed
with US as a people.
One of the farmers on Church Hill
has flag flying from high pole in
his door yard. A couple of old bum.
mers chanced 10 pass that way, and
seeing the flag, they at once declared
it to be a "Grover flag" but were
readily and emphatically Informed
that such was not the case, as no
Grover flag should float over his prem.
ises while his name was Bill Albaugh.
II is certainly amusing to hear what
grand, good, patriotic young man
Cleveland was for staying home and
taking care of his mother during the
dark days of rebellion All, yes; a
mother is dear to all good young men,
and yet we know of many who tore
away from the parental roof, and pre-,
ferred to stand under the folds Of the
old stars and stripes rather than lurk
behind q half dozen brothers and q
mothers apron. How much of such
patriotism would it have required to
have put down the rebellion? Shame
on so childish an excuse, simply for
defending stay at home, and for the
purpose of elevating an unworthy
man in the estimation of loyal citi
zens; but then,
The train is coming round the bend,
Goodbye, old Grover, goodbye;
It's loaded well with Harrison men,
Goodbye, old Grover, goodbye.

An Unfair Report Corrected.

"a juror is withdrawn and the case
continued until the third Monday in
November" said Judge Wilson, "and
the present case ended"
Probably no person in the Court
room heard these words from the Court

light as the prisoner, Dan Everhart.

mistakable relief it was on Dams face,

The above quotations are from the
Oil City Derrick'S account of the Ever
hart trial and are not only misleading
but calculated to greatly prejudice
Dan Everhart's case by creating the
impression that he hailed the circum-
stance as lengtheping out his allotted
time of existence on this mundane
sphere. On the contrary, we are re-
liably informed by those more familiar
with Dams facial expressions than even
the sstute feminine pencil wielder for
the Derrick, he not only did not evince
pleasure at the announcement but was
perhaps the most sorely disappointed
person connected with the case. The
progress of the trial, it is said, was in
every way satisfactory to him and he
entertained not the slightest fear Of
the result Hence the Derrick's refer
ence quoted above is not only uncalled
for but looked upon by those con.
yersant with the facts as base injustice
to one of the prisoners and emanating
from thoroughly prejudiced stand

Next to the man or woman who
would commit a murder, in point oi
meanness, is the man, woman or news
paper who would wantonly prejudice
the public mind against one on trial
for his life. And how much more
despicsbl9 is the case when it is done
for the sole purpose, seemingly, to
create sensation and sell papers. 1t
is high time the hose were turned on

Life Of Gen. Harrison:
by GEN. LEW. WALLACE.

BY GEN. LEW. WALLACE.
This book, just out, is the life of great
man by great author.
1t is superior literary production wor-
thy of special attention.
Both subject and author bave risen by
superior qualities, indomitable energy and
application from the quiet walks of life to
worldwide fame.
They have been lifelong friends; both
have had thrilling experiences on the field
of battle; have served in the Council
Chambers of the Nation. How fortunate
that the man whose illustrious ancestry
shall be put in the shade by his own ele-
walton TO the Presidency of a far greater
nation and whose fitness for such exalted
position the people desire to become fa-
miliar with, should have such a biogra-
pher. One who has passed through like
experience in the war for the Union and
in the national councils and who can in
telligently unfold and discuss the views
Gen. Harrison holds upon national issues.
One who wields pen of such wonderful
descriptive power as to have reached un-
challenged fame in authorship.
The work is issued by the Messrs. Hub
bard Bros, of Philadelphia Chicago, and
Kansas City, is intensely interesting, ele-
gantly illustrated, and we understand is
having remarkable sale. 1t is sold
through agents and undoubtedly affords
exceedingly profitable employment for a
great many active young men as every
true American should certainly read this
book before November 4th.
