Noyes, Republican Candidate for Governor, will speak in Van Wert on the 25th inst. The slur upon C. P. Edson, Esq. in last week’s Delphos Herald was uncall ed for and in bad taste. Rows. —A number of disgraceful fights have taken place among the fast young men within the past week. A New Cuvurcu.—The Baptist Soci ety of this town has bought the west School house and will convert it into a church. The Wapakoneta Democrat says that a horse from that county beat the “Sleepy Spy,” and that their boys won lots of money. We have received a copy of the Van Wert Bulletin. It is a very neat paper and contains many interesting items.— Ft Wayne Journal. Jim. Montgomery refused to sign a wounded soldier's appointment to of fice, and said that if the soldier could not live without work, he should go to the poor house. Fre Enaixne —The Town Council has contracted with Messrs. Button Son, of Waterfield, N. Y., for a hand fire engine. It will be a fine machine and equal to the retirements of our town. At a meeting of the Republican Cen tral Committee of Van Wert County, for the purpose of organizing for the campaign of 1871, Judge A. McGav ren was elected Chairman and H. C. Glenn Secretary. The old foot bridge, on the West side of Washington street, tumbled down, on Friday night, but the Council had an ticipated this event by contracting with Mr. P. H. Bison for a new one, which is now completed. Personal.—Mr. Henry Weible, Dem ocratic candidate for Representative, was in town on Tuesday. He rode out and took a look at the situation in company with our esteemed fellow citi zen, Joseph Shilling, Esq. The Times says Jim. Montgomery is the pier of every Commissioner of Van Wert county. We don't know what this means, yet are of the opinion that it does not refer to the piers Jim, built in the middle of the creek, near the old mill, and afterwards pulled up and placed where they belonged, at a large expense to the county.

A most ridiculous display of wound ed pride took place at a hotel in this town a few days since, the offended in dividual being a‘‘New Departure” Dem ocrat, who always votes and never scratches his ticket. Our hero, Mr. Boefling was an employee in the livery stable of Messrs. Bair Edson, and was assisted by a colored man named John Green. Both of these hands boarded with Mr. Bair, but the absence of Mr. B.'s family, some weeks ago, necessita ted a change to the DePuy house. The new boarders appeared late for break fast, and the landlord, who is an accom modating gentleman, showed all the re spect possible to his white friend, by placing him at one table and the color ed man at another, as is customary. Breakfast over, the ‘white man” ap peared in the barroom, boiling over with rage. He said, “I Il tell you what it is Mr. Landlord, I won't be treated in this way. I’m just as good as Green. I sleep with him, and am good enough to eat with him, and if you put me by my self again, Wil leave your house.” The landlord compromised by giving his offended boarder a seat at the table with Green and heard no further complaint. Thieves, like A Little Girl Sixteen Years Old Sent to Jail for Stealing. One of the most revolting scenes that ever we witnessed took place at the Mayor's Office, in this town, on Satur day evening.A little girl named Joe. DeWitt had stolen some $20 worth of clothing and jewelry, of Mrs. W.I. Lamb, at Wilshire, where she had been employed to do house work. A war rant for her arrest was placed in the hands of Sheriff Gleason, who arrested her in this town on Saturday evening, and secured the stolen property. The little girl was then taken before Mayor Glenn and plead guilty to the theft.— Being over fifteen years of age, he could not send her to the reform farm, where she ought to be, but reluctantly sen tenced her to ten days in jail, this being the lightest penalty of which her crime would admit. The little unfortunate appeared to be the only one present who was not mortified at what was ta king place and followed the Sherif with a lively step to the jail. It is a doubt ful punishment, yet the only one pre scribed by Jan. Burlington. Leaving the East and arriving at Chicago or Indianapolis, how shall we reach the West? The best Line is acknowledged to be the C., B. Q., joined together with the B. M. railroad by the Iron Bridge at Burlington, and called the Bursa in Gerox Roevue. The main line of the Route running to Omaha, connects with the great Pacific roads, and forms today the leading route to California. The Middle Branch, entering Nebraska at Plattsmouth, passes through Lincoln, the State Capital, and will this year be finished to Fort Kearney, forming the shortest route across the Continent by over 100 miles. Another branch of the B. M., diverging at Red Oak, falls into a line running down the Missouri through St. Joe to Kansas City, and all Kansas. Passengers by this route to Kan sas, see Illinois, Southern Iowa, and Missou ri, and, by a slight divergence, can see Ne braska also. Lovers of fine views should remember the Burlington Route, for its towns “high-gleam ing from afar”’—its tree-fringed streams—its rough bluffs and quarries—its corn oceans stretching over the prairies further than ene can reach. Land-buyers will be sure to remember it, for they have friends among the two thousand who have already bought farms from Geo. 8. Warris, the Land Commissioner of the B. M. R. R. at Burlington, Iowa, or among the four thousand homesteaders and pre-emptors who last year filed claims in the Lincoln land office, where “Uncle Sam is rich enough to give us all a farm.” For fifteen years I suffered from disordered Liver, but since I used one package of Sim mon’s Liver Regulator, to this day, which is now several years, I have been comparatively a sound man. Man. A. F. Woorey. Kingston, Ga. Arrest that terrible Catarrh, and thus avoid a consumptive's grave by using Dr. Sage’s Ca tarrh Remedy. It's not warranted to cure Consumption when the lungs are half con sumed, nor to make men live forever, nor to make this earth a blissful Paradise, to which ITeaven shall be but a side-show, but the pro prietor will pay $500 reward for a case of Ca tarrh which he cannot cure. Sold by drug gists, or send sixty cents to Dr. R. V. Pierce, 133 Seneca street, Buffalo N. Y., and receive it by mail. Cnearv Moaic.—It is seldom that cheapness is associated with merit and real value, but we must make an exception in favor of PE genus, Mesicas, Monty. This valuable work comes to us regularly each month, overflow ing with choice new Music—some fifteen pieces in every number. It is printed from 36 full-size music plates, neatly bound, and sells for the modest sum of 30 cents. Volume VIII. began with the July number, and the publisher offers to send two copies—July and August—for 50 cents. Address J. L. Perens, 599 Broadway, New York. Think of it! 30 pieces of good Music for 50 cents. The Alpine.—This beautiful pictorial for August has just reached us, and still main tains its reputation as being the finest periodi cal published in America. At the commence ment of the year it was scarcely thought possible that the publishers would be able to keep up the high standard with which they started, but the artistic world has been agreeably surprised as each successive num ber is fully equal—in illustration, typography and literary contents—if not superior, in many numbers, to those first issued. The one before us is extremely rich in illustration, containing no less than eight large wood cuts, three of which are full-page ones. The principal, “‘Reward Outwitted,” by Deiker; ‘Death of Wallenstein,’ by Bilmner; ‘The Picture Gallery,” by Becker; ‘Dogs atttack we an Otter,” by Beckmann; and “Othello and Desdemona,” by Hoffman, are really beautiful, and are executed in that careful and delicate manner which is a specialty with this publication. The literary matter is fully up to the standard, and of a varied and in teresting nature. As each number is laid away, and the size of the volume, at the end of the year, becomes apparent, we begin to realize the handsome pictorial it will make, and to wonder, as, indeed, every subsriber must do, how it is possible for the publishers to issue such @ Work at $250 a year. The proprietors are James Sutton Co., 23 Liber ty Street, New York.
