B. Graverand 8. H. Graves. BY VIRTUE of an order of sale Issued ont of In Which Jock Rnhhlta Figur Con- yiouonuy- Last Saturday morning thero might have been seen twonty-llve of our good citizens on horseback," with twelve fox hounds and several English gray hounds starting out across the bridge.

They wore lead by George B. Inge, Col. Ooss, Mr. Bishop, J. 8.

Waterbury, Goonrich, and, In fact the entire male population who could muster horses to rido. There were several English gen tlemen, whoso names we did not know, who really had charge of the outfit, and who were going to conduct the sport according to the manner of "Merry England." They went over In the Lister neighborhood, and the sport began Several rabbits were started up, and the musicof the hounds and the yelling of men awoke such eclios in the neighborhood as had never been beard there be fore, and In fuel, It was too much for the sturdy old fanners when they heard It, they caught up the spirit, Jumped upon their farm horses without stop ping to get a saddle; some of them had on blind bridles and some hud only a halter, but all were desperately excited and there was real music in the air. The farmers told tuo men to never min the fences, go on with the sport it "Was all right. There was counted at one time sixty-two men on horseback. The day's sport was enjoyed by all who were there, and they all came home lu good humor and without an accident of any kind that we heard of.

We did not leuru the names of any of the English gentle men except the Merewether brothers. Liberty Letter. Liberty. Township, January 17th, 1S76. Editor of the Font Have we not had a glorious winter? Talk about Italy's sunny skies, we can vio with her now.

Everything" is looking well. Wheat is up and is looking healthy and Cattle are doing splendidly; the wet spell at New Year did not hurt them at all. There is so much fodder and corn for them that they get abundance to eat, and plenty of such food means that they can stand a cold spell and not fall off. The pity is, that with the quautity of corn fed there were not more hogs to follow behind the cattle, but hogs are very scarce. Mr.

Butler was fortunate enough to bring down a lot when he visited Iowa, but his neighbors did Hot have such a chance. Mr. Jackson has returned from Cher okee county. Heieports that game is not as plentyful there as with us, but that there are a good many parties out shooting and shipping the game to Saint Louis. They ail make at least $3 per day.

Work is scarce. Mr. Coopor has lieen improving his place. Mr. Ward put up for him a very nice buggy shed, and he has a new house for storing oats.

Mr. Ward next went to Cap. Merewether's form where he built a Urst-elass stable. Mr. M.

and his brother have decided on going into the steer business; the raising of mules they leave to those muleish-ly inclined. We think they are right; with their good shelter and wide range cattle should do well with them. It was reported that there was to be a big rabbit bunt at Defiance last week, so our sporting gentlemen mounted their fleetesfhorses and went down, but only to bo dissappointed, as the Falls party thought they were to meet at Mr. Ashley's, and ho missed them. Center has her dancing parties every now and then, she has not got over the Christmas holidays yet.

It is a wonderful town that, set right on the top a hill so as to be seen of all men. We are very proud of our county seat no matter where we are driving we can always point to it, standing out against the. sky, and say, "Behold Yates Center!" If only this county seat business was set tled we would then set to work to build county coax Toronto to come up beside us, get a lawyer or two to settle here, and they would keep things lively. The want of a lawyer is greatly felt; so many vexed' questions arise, which for want of saiil lawyer to keep them alive, die out. Then a doctor, yes! we must have a doctor! Where else should we send for one if.

not to the county seat? This is a cheap way of advertising for a medical man; if you insist on putting It In the "ten cent column," I'll answer your demand for payment as Dr. Williams debtors do him. Health is good and everyone contented. The best wishes of the season to you from Liberty Farmer. Belmont Items.

During the holidays the Christians held a series of meetings at the school-house RouthofBolmont, and on Saturday reorganized their church." Rev. McRay has been preaching for them. On Sunday, January 16th, a Sunday school was organized with ex-Representative Gregory as suprintendent. Mr. Milt.

Jewette hold a spelling school last Friday night at his school on Sandy, and Barton Johnson, a pupil of District 81, says that he beat the school spelling. District 31 had a spelling school two weeks ago which was very poorly attended. Mr, Wilson had a New Years presentation a son, and he is happy, and now devotes himself assiduously to making brooms. Corn is down to 18 cents per bushel. Several families in the neighborhood are sick.

Humboldt and Burlington each want Starch factories, and Humboldt would not object to a good Woolen Mill. Nov? we have a good Woolen Mill, but still we are not happy. We think a good distillery and a brewery would pay and give the farmers a better price for their grain, besides it would save freight on the manufactured article. We know that it Is unpopular to talk about trying lo get distilleries and breweries, but it would not make any Inoro people drink besides, a great deal of the corn that is sold here now. goes to distelleries at other places, and it would do no more harm to have the distilleries or breweries here David Reynolds, of the town proprietor of Defiance, came in last week and reported everything flourishing at tl'ie county seat.

He says the people feel all right aliout tho prospect of Defi ance coining out all right in the lawsuit, in regard to the validity of tho recent election, as Defiance won the suit atTopeka, and think they are sure to win at our term of court. lie also paid for the Post to January 1st, 1877, and for Harper1 Weekly and the Chicago Tribune, and says he is going to read some during the centennial year. We understand that Mrs. Learned's sale was well attended, in fact, several persons spoke of it as being the largest attendance they ever saw at a sale; everything brought its full value, ana a a great many of the cattle sold for more than they were considered worth by our best stock men. This all goes to' show that there Is, money in the county, W'hen men will go to a sale and pay such prices for stock, there must be money somewhere.

Now is the time for our farmers to get their fences in repair and be ready for Spring work when the time comes, so that not a moment will be lost when work time does arrive, as we are ail well aware that the men who plant early as a rule, get the best corn. We want to see another just' such a crop raised this year, as was last, and then the world will look upon Kansas and exclaim: "Surely the blessing of God Is on the Rotten Commonwealth," i It does seem as though this city was encumbured With more useless cur's than there Is any need of. On Sundtiv last, not less than fifteen of these dogs attacked a cow, and had it not been for several men rushing out and throwing clubs and stones at them, the cow would have been badly, hurt. We would like to see our Legislature pass some kind of i 1 a (State law taxing dogs, and nave the 1 ,1 j.i ii. i tax collected the same as other taxes re.
