The Republican voters of the Town of McHenry are requested tp meet in Town Caucus at the Council Rooms, in the village.of McHenry, on Thursday, September 13th, 1877, at 3 o'clock p. si, for the purpose of choosing eleven delegates to represent paid town in the County Convention, to be held at Woodstock on Saturday, the 15th inst., and to transact such other business as may come before the meeting. Br OKDEE OF TOTO COMMITTEE., THE Public School opened on' day last. Hou- Croquet Sets at 85 cents. O. W. Owen's for THE regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors of this county will be held next week.; I BUCKLIN & STEVENS bave put out two new and tasty signs in front of their store. MRS, JOEL WHEELER;- will accept thanks for a very fine Boquet, left at our Sanctum last week. A large number of our citizens ac­ companied by the Mcllenry Band, are at Kayes Park to-day helping the 95th boys •'Re-Utje." FRESH Oysters have mrtde their ap­ pearance, and „ now loveus of the Bi- •alves can be supplied by calling at any ' of our Restaurants. GEORGE and Clint Wait. Sons of Lewis Wait, of this village, who now reside iivKansas, are making a short visit to their old home. We under­ stand that 'George lias been ?ib&ent •ver twenty years. ABOUT fourteen hundred busty^ls of Cucumbers were taken in at the Pickle Factory in this village, on Saturday alast. Mr. Curtis informs us that they notwithstanding the dry weather, get a good supply the. present season. A GRAND Harvest Party is advertised « to be held at Schreiuer's Hall, in this '('village, on Thursday evening of this 4Week, the 6th inst. Good music will be 'in attendance. Admission to the Hall 50 cents. All are invited. ! ' 1 THEStreet from the Riverside Block north to GiTles' corner has been greatly improved by a row of substantial hitching posts, H. Colbv,. Mnyes. Morey, Fisher and Gifles each doing their part towards the improvement. J. STORY is building an additiou on the rear of his Hardware Store* 20x20, to bo used as a Tin Shop, taking out the partition to his old shop, thus enlarg­ ing his store 16 feet. It is a good im­ provement, and one long needed in his business. ROBT. E. STANLEY, the noted hunter and fisherman of Nippersink Point will please accept our thanks for a pair of very line Mallard Ducks, killed by his unerring aim. Ducks that get out of the reach of "Bobs" gun need to fly high. WE used to know a man who said he could do all the business he wanted to without advertising but we see he has been compelled to call on the printer at last. Another man has charge of his business, however, and his bills are headed "Sheriff's sale*" H. WIGHTMAN, went to Chenoa, 111., last week, having received a telegram of the death of his brothers son, who was killed by the accidental discharge of a gun. It was a son of J. E. Wight- man, of Chenoa, aged about 11 years.-- We haye not learned the particulars. A WISCONSIN man put his arm around a girl while they were out riding together, and within two minutes it was paralized. Paralysis is a bad thing, but around here it is considered a pretty mean sort of a man who isn't willing to risk both'aruis if necessary WE had the pleasure on Monday of looking ©ver a job of very fine Grain­ ing, done for H. Colby by C. P. Waite, of the firm of Curtis & Waite, Painters It was imitation of Black Walnut and Oak, and for skillful execution, neat­ ness of design and general finish could not be excelled. "Charley'1 is certainly a genius in this line, and persons hav­ ing graining to do can get no better job than by calling on him. In all de­ partments of the Painting, Calsomin- ing or Paper Hanging line the firm ©f Curtis & Waite are equal to the best, and work at reasonable rates. • "|. 1 '.TT' 1 m;>_' " -}• WE would call the attention of farmers to the advertisement of "Diamond Wheat, to be fOurid on the last page of this paper. It is certainly the finest wheat we ever saw, $nd every fearer of this paper can get a sample free by addressing as per the advertisement. sample can be seen at this office. , K. ^ ".J,**. < 'i . WE notice that S. I. Bradbury, edi­ tor of tne Patriot, Waukegan, is Agent for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Land Company, and persons contem­ plating purchasing land in the West should not fail to see hiiu before going. He has lately returned from a trip through Kansas, and ean give you in­ formation that will be valuable. ^ THE President, Secretary and G#TI- erel Superintendent of the McHenry County Agricultural Board, will meet at the office of Treasurer Nish, in the Court House, at Woodstock, September 8th,>«t 1 o'clock p, m., to receive bids for furnishing refreshments at our next, hiintial Fair, to be held at the Fair iSrounds Octoher 2wd. 3rd. 4th and 5th. I A. BOURNE, Secretary. TJIIS is the.time between hay and grass, when the newspaper man end? gels his brain and strains his imagi­ nation for an item, while he witnesses the departure of his wealthy neighbor for the umbrageous shade of the pleas­ ant watering place, and sighs like a pair of cracked bellows over the work of fickle fate, which has doomed him to stay at home. FRED ARNOLD, of the firm of Arnold, Zimmer & Co., Brewers, Woodstock, is now in town daily, and ean be found at Geb. Schreiner's, near the Depot,pre­ pared to pay cash and the highest market price for good Bailey. This firm is doing an extensive business, which is increasing every year. Those who have dealings with them will find them fair and honorable in every par­ ticular. - . . ' STATION Agent Buss informs us that Excursion Tickets for the Exposition at Chicago will be sold at this Station on the following days: September 4th and 5th,good until September 8th.-- September 11th and 12th, good until September 15th. October 9th and 10th good until October 13th. Tickets, in­ cluding admissiou to the Exposition, $2.35. Persons visiting the Exposition should bear the above" dates in mind. THE Harvard Independent, which was sold at public Sa'e on Monday of last week, was bid in by A. McLaughlin the former owner, and afterwards sold to Geo. II. White, of Harvard. White is not a printer, but a young man of more tha:s ordinary ability, and we have no doubt will make the Indepen­ dent live sheet. He has changed the paper to a quarto, and otherwise ma­ terially improved its appearance. We certainly wish him success in the field editorial. - > WR have just read the Circular and Catalogue,' receive from Johnson's Commercial College, St. Louis, con­ taining over 300 references of some of the most prominent Merchants, Bank­ ers, Business Men and Practical Ac­ countants to whom it refers by special permission. All whom are interested should address the College for one of them, as it will give all necessary in­ formation concerning tuition, time to complete, board, etc., etc. Se<{ their "add*1' another column. O. W. OWEN informs us that he has made arrangements to have the Steamer "R. Emerson" lengthened out twenty four feet, and will put in a new fifteen horse power 'engine, for the coming season. Work will be commenced on her as soon as she is hauled out this Fall and completed before winter sets in. Mr. Owen intends making her large enough to accommodate all par­ ties visiting the Lakes, and with speed enough to please the fastest. We are confident the "R Emerson" will next season be an honor to our town. KELTER, LEICKEM & Co., have made another improvement in their Patent Gate, which we think makes it the most perfect Farm Gale now made.-- We cannot exactly describe it, but it obviates the use of but one post where two has been used for hanging, the Gate being hung on a simple iron hinge, and can be raised or lowered "at will. For a simple, cheap and durable Gate it has no equal, and we think it only a matter of time when they will be used by every farmer in the country. When in town call and see them. An invoice of new Teas, just received at Smith. Aldrlch & Haythorn'e, River­ side Block, McHenry. WE learn that on Monday evening, Aug. 20th, Mr. Leonard Bantus, a well- digger, who lives North of Johnsburgh, met with a sad accident. While being hauled out of a well forty feet deep, and when about ten feet from terra firma, the rope broke precipitating him to the bottom of the Well, a dis­ tance of thirty feet, together with the bucket on which he was standing, striking upon a box which he had been using at the bottom of the well. In thejall his whole weight came on one leg, producing a compound oomminu- tal fracture of the lower thirel of the right leg extending to the ankle joint. Dr. E. A. Beers, of this tillage, was called, who dressed it, but fears that Owing to the extreme war in weathor at the time of the accident and the seriousness of the injury *that amputa­ tion may be necessary. As will be seen by a new advertise tnentin another colaoin, P. D. Smith has adopted the cash system, and on aud after September 20tli will sell ex­ clusively on that ba^is. He has a fine stock of goods, selected with care and bought lu a low market, and by selling for cash can afford to give his custom­ ers the benefit of his bargiing;. Call and examine kis stock at his new store near the Depot. 1 THE Richmond House, Richmond-, 111., changed hands on Monday last, the old and popular landlord, Frank Foster, retiring being succeeded by John Bil- lett, who has purchased the premises,! Mr. Blllett informs us that he wili Immediately put the House in thor­ ough repair, Paint, Paper and other­ wise improve it. and make it second to nouc iu the couuty. He is an old hand in the business, and will spare no pains to meet the wants of the patrons of the popular Richmond House. WE are reliable informed by a friend that a man in this town is trying to cheat the printer by tying a string of Bologna Sausage around his dogs neck and making him stand In front of his door as a sign, thus cheating us out of a job of advertising. We have sum­ moned a Coroners Jury to investigate this matter, and if found guilty the verdict will be the same as that ren­ dered by the old nigger: *4IIe was hit on the head with something unknown and killed, thro wed Overboard and drowned, floated on shore and froze to death." The body will be duly eni- baltned and sent home. You had bel­ ter "look a leetle oud."

Hall has been known as a cheap seller, and judging from his price list'we should say his intention was to sustain the reputation established. Mr. Hall is a buyer of long experience, and hav­ ing ample means at his command he is enabled to secure large lots at big bar­ gains. ne makes a specialty of Mens and Boys Clothing and his second floor at Dundee.22x70, is devoted entirely to the sale aud manufacture of Cloth­ ing. His price list and advertisement is readable. Look it over. Excursion to Wilmot. The Steamer "R. Emerson," will make an Excursion to Wilmot, Wis., stopping at the Lotus Bed on Grass Lake, on Friday of this week, Septem­ ber 7th, leaving her doek at McHenry at 9 o'clock A. M„ sharp* and returning leave Wilmot at 4 p. m. As this will probably be the last regular excursion of the season those who desire to make this trip should avail themselves of this opportunity. A visit to the Lotus Bed will be well worth the time spent, as these rare and beautiful flowers ate now in full bloom. Remember the day and time, Friday next at 9 A. M., sharp. IS HK FttlGHTKNKD. EDITOR PLAINDEALER:--Your regu­ lar correspondent "Even," from this place, from some cause has failed to make connections for the past few- weeks. What is the trouble ? Has he been frighened out of the few wits he has lefty We judge that this is the case, as we hear that threats have been mfede to di^mbuwel him. tear him in pieces, and otherwise mutulate his bony carcass. Our advice to any who would thus seek revenge, not to waste your time in so foolish a manner. He is not to blame for what he does not know. Indiscriminate meddling with other peoples affairs will sooner or later bring the offender to justice. We are ne newspaper corresponded, nor never expect to be but we do like to see FAIR PLAY. Greenwood, Sept., 3d, 1877. We received the above jost as we go to press, and although we do not agree with the writer in what he says in re­ lation to our correspondent, neverthe­ less as he seems to be a humane indi­ vidual, have thought best to give hie communication a place in our columns. It is evident that somebody's corns have been severely trodden upon, and of course the poor newspaper corres­ pondent has to suffer for it.'

' GREENWOOD- ITOR PLAINDEALER:--Our commu- tion this week can contain but of importance to your readers as the'stock oi news as usual is very low, and besides we dare not scarcely say cur soul is our own any more from fear of being turned inside out or, suffer what to us vfould be preferable, total annihilation. Wfe inadvertantly neglected to notibe in our last communication the verj| skillful and successful surgical operation performed by one of our Veterinary Surgeons (as we are blessed with two) , Mr. G. E. Adams rpon a hors| owned by Mr. C., H. Merchant. The;horse was suffering from a large gathering in the upper glands of the throat and head, which had assumed snch 'proportions as to nearly choke the animal to death, aud not accessable from without. Mr. Adams very skill­ fully? opened the windpipe of the hors^ through whieh he inserted artifi­ cial (tabes through " which the animal breathed for some time until the gathering gave way. The horse is now well and d"ing finely. Those who get into trouble Vetrinarianly would do well to bear Greenwood iu mind. There has been considerable sickness within the past four weeks, but most all are convalecmg at present. Mr. A. Baker is still quite sick however. J. J. Philbrick and family returned from their Eastern visit on Tuesday of this week. Mr. |l'oles has been engaged for the past two weeks repairing and putting in new machinery for the purpose of making the new patent flour. J, A.

EDITOR PLAINDEALER.--Ato look out ifpou the lawns remluds one of Spring. Grass which a few weeks ago was parched and withe'red is now as green and fresh as April showers could make it. Cucumber vines that were destroyed by the hail have started up from the roots, and if nothing happens will yield heavily. It certainly would be a glad disappointment to some to pick a hundrfed bushels, from patches that two weeks ago all that could be seen of them was the naked stem aud not much of that. Again the sportsmen lure happy aud chickens are looking sad. We are glad to see people enjoy themselves but do not like to see the Sabbath desecrated by men and boys, with gun and dog, trying to see who will bag the most game. The Temperance question is agita­ ting the minds of our people considera­ bly just now. 1 Last W ednesday even­ ing a meeting was held in the Chapel addressed by Mr. Wagner, from Elgin, who gave a very interesting lecture on the expense of intemperance to the country and stated that he was there lu vi^w of organizing a society. On beiug asked what kiud of a society he proposed to organized he replied that he belonged to the Good Templars and would be glad to organize such a ono.-- One gentleman in the audience said if it was a secret society he would have nothing to do with it. Mr. Wagner produced a manual read a few articles Ih it and then began to circulate a pa­ per for those to sign who were in favor of organizing, when a gentleman from Nuuda, who used to preach but is now selling peaches, (for which ho is better calculated) stepped to the front with a manual in his hand declaring that the Good Templars were a curse to any community, not in harmony with , the principles of religion, teaching immor­ ality rather than morality, promoting intemperance rather than temperance. After speaking in this strain a short time, during which time several left in disgust, he was called to order. Rev. Mr. Hay said he thought the gentleman was laboring uttder prejudice (which we guess was about right.) Mr.Rollins said lie had known of the Good Tem­ plars doing a great deal of good. Rev. Mr. Hewitt fhoughtit would be better to unite with the people at Nunda than to organize a separate society, to which most all present agreed. Mr. Wagner maintained the deportment of a gentleman, notwithstanding he was ill-treated. The meeting was closed without organizing. A Union Meeting will beheld Friday evening at the Baptist Church. We hope there will be a good attendance as it is expected there will be good speakers present. Perhaps the one from Nunda who. If he sees this, wil* think we are certainly Odd in not ap­ preciating his remarks. ODD JR. Dress and Cloak Making.
