A number of our correspondents have
fallen into the habit of deferring the
writing of their letters until Monday,
and in some instances until Tuesday.
Last week we received letters contain
ing important news items at 4 o'clock
p. m. Tuesday, at which hour the forms
of the NORTHERNER are closed. Get
your letters into the earliest mail on
Monday, and then if anything of inn
portance occurs under your observa-
ton afterwards, send supplement.
The railroad meeting Wednesday
evening of last week was well attended,
although the Paw Paw committee failed
to appear Hon. G.. j. Monroe gave the
people very interesting talk in regard
to the new road, predicting it to be one
of the most important lines in the cOun-
try. The committee are fully organized
and are meeting with unexpected en-
couragement in procuring subscrip-
tons Bangor was never more in earn
est and will get the road unless it is an
impossibility.-Bangor AdCance.
Col j. G.. Todd and family will leave
for Milford, Neb., about March 1st, at
which place he will engage in the grain
and stock trade. For the four years
which Col. Todd has been sheriff of this
county, his home has been here, and
here he has built up IA circle of friends
which to-day embraces every good man
with whom he has come in contact. 1t
is with regret that we see him and his
excellent family leave us, and we hear
tily congratulate that people among
whom they make their future home.
Colonel, the NoRTHERNER wishes you
abundant success.
A party of fox-huntcrs were out in
full feather the other day, down in the
Hinkley neighborhood. After the usual
ceremony of thrashing around in the
brush, Reynard broke cover and took
straight across country, with the whole
gang in full cry and full pursuit. Tom
Cotton was quietly cutting wood at the
edge of piece of timber. Hearing the
cry of the hounds, and looking up, he
saw the fox coming across the fields
directly towards him; stepping behind
a tree he poised his AK, and as the fugi-
tive passed him he fired the weapon
with deadly precision and effect, and
the hunt was up.
At the county Sunday school conven-
ton held at Gobleville last week, the
report of the Christian Sunday school
of this village showed the amount of
money raised during the year was 800.
Some have suggested that the Della
Putnam benefit fund was included in
this amount Mr.. +. II. Lindsey, SUI
perintendent of the school, informs us
that such is not the case. The church
and Sunday school are very grateful
for the liberal contributions for the
benefit of their afflicted sister, but no
part of such money was raised by the
Sunday school, as such, nor was a cent
of such money credited To the school
nor included in the report made to the
convention.

noticed bill i'm the house one day last

Joseph Myers, German, is wanted
by Sheriff McFarlin of this county. 1t
seems that gentleman named Skinner,
from Whitney Iowa, has been visiting
at the home of Mr.. Carter, an old friend,
in Waverly township, and that Myers
was also guest there-having been ac-
quainted with both Skinner and Carter
in former years. On Thursday morn
| ing of last week when the Carter family
arose they missed Myers, who has been
accustomed to getting up early and at
tending to some of the chores about the
house and barns. On Mr.. SINNERS
arising he discovered that his pocket
book and watch were missing, the form
er containing thirtyive dollars in
money and his railroad return tickets.
1t was subsequently learned that Myers
