Well, now, you "oiior been there" and gazed on the mob; just like our black pigs crowding vo see who gets to the trough fin! As the shades of evening approach the result of too much beer is notice able, and of course several fights oc cur.

Hot currents of air, too, as if from a blast furnace, came lushing in at longer or shorter intervals during tha day, which served to make the discomfort complete. To sun it up it was the most "trying" period we ever experienced, nd a repetition would ive forced us into Liquidation or something. -Up to a couple of weeks ago-say tho middle of uly-the prospect for abundant corn crop was never hotter in this section of county, but the chinch bug, dry.

and hot weather have almost ruined it. Somo fields, it js true, look well, and rain within a week or two mny bring it out all right, but there is no use dinguising tho fact this is an off year for Jewell on tho corn crop. However, if reports are to bo relied upon, but a small portion of tho state is thus afflicted, and Kansas, as in past years will have Miilicieut for homo consumption and to ship. There no cauwo for alarm-no daugor of a famine The G. R.

Festival nt Gilbort's Hull, Saturday evening was well attended and proved a success in every particular. The tables fairly groaned under the weight of delicacies which our good women prepared and brought to the feast, but tho pork and beans took precedence of oil others and rapidly diapeared.

M. Allhousc, of Grant township, visited our humblo abode last Friday, ordered his name placed on the subscription list, made us to know that he was a candidate for the office of register of deeds, and then hurried on. Mr. A. is un old sutler in this country and heirs the npnlntion of being a pleasant agreouble gon-tloman, honorable in all his dealings, and is well quulifiod for the position to which he aspires.

Four years ngo ho asked for the ennie position, and was defeated by only a few votes, und retired from tho Held with many now friends. He is not a chronic office seeker, as this is only tho second time that he modestly asks the people for a publio favor. Ho ia innking a thorough honorublo canvass, and says he meets with encouragements every day to press forward in tho race. Nobody doibts that ho would make a good officer, and the people of Grant township think they ouSht to be favored this year. Salem Friend.

The Col. has the satisfaction of know-ing that he has the sympathy and good wishes of all the temperance and law-at'idinp peojle ia the State.
