Allen, II. F. Cory, W. F. Henderson and John Berry, we rolled out of Erie in a three seated rig for Osage Mission where we spent several hours of pleasant recreation attending the Bean Festival and Camp-Fire held in Steadraan's Hall by G.

K. Warren Post G. A. R. of that place.

On entering the hall we were greatly notice long- rows of tables, spread with snow-white linen, on which was neatly arranged handsome and artistically made cakes -sonae of them representing monitors, gun-boats, forts-, and various other army features, then came the "other edibles, and last, but not least of them all, we noticed here and there sparkling and steaming forth from large dishes, that good old army bean which the boys in blue hailed with such hearty welcome into their camps twenty years or more ago. We say we were suprised. because we expected to find the comrades seated around in their quarters eating their rations of pork and beans and relating reminiscences of army life. The tables were presided over by ladies, and the wants of all were well supplied and no one left unnoticed. Hanging from the walls of the hall were a large number of army plats showing the out-lines of some of the most prominent and hard fought battlefields and the positions of the Federal and Confederate forces, among which we noticed the battle Of Shiloh, Vieks-burg, Gettysburg, and Richmond.

This was indeed an interesting feature, and as the old soldier boy traced along the plat with his finger pointing out the position he was in during this and that particular battle, and relating the many hair-breadth escapes he had gone through with during those eventful days of war, was highly entertaining and enteresting to the listener. After the comrades and invited friends had done ample justice to beans and other rich viands, the tables were removed and comrade Stillwell, who had just returned from a visit to the old battle ground of Shiloh, was called on to talk to the boys. Comrade Still well responded promptly to the lequcst, and in his usual and pleasing manner, gave a short narration of his recent visit to the old battle field of Shiloh. ne stated that on reaching the old battle field and looking around for the old and familiar features of twenty-three years ago, he was lost, bewildered and disap pointed. Time had made a wonderful change in that locality.

Trees that had been shattered and riddled by shell and ball had fallen and decayed, and other trees had tnken their places. A new church had been built upon the same spot where the old one stood amid the clamor of battle twenty-three years ago. About the only natural and familiar features of the battle field, said comrade Stillwell, were two springs of water-one near the church and the other near Pittsburg Landing and a small open field where his regiment was sta Butter, per lb 10 to 15 Eggs, per dozen 8 Apples per bushel 75 to 1 00 Cheese per lb 15 to 20 Dried peaches per lb to Sorghum per gallon 35 to 50 Hides, green, (So 1.) 4 Hides, dry 8 to 10 Bacon, side, per lb 10 to 12 Ham per lb I0tol2 Chickens per dozen 175 to 2 50 Potatoes per bushel 50 to 100 GIRIOIGIEIRIIIEISI, Provisions, Queenswarc carried the scars of two wars.

The stock is as large and fine as any we have, been privileged to inspect in Erie and they show oft' to good advantage in the splendid room of the largest building in Xeosho county. Mr.

Steadman is one of the oldest and best known merchants of the county and needs no recommendation at our hands. An examination of his stock will convince all that he means business. We have no doubt the opening of this mammoth stock of g-oods will largely increase the business of our growing city. Hence, we greet Mr. Steadman with a hearty welcome and take pleasure in asking our readers to give him a business call at once.
