EDITOR PLAINDEALER :--In my last communication I gave you a pretty full account of tlie proceedings In reference to the removal of tlie County Scat from old McHeury to the present city of Woodstock. That Is all of any particular importance that transpired during the year of 1843vmid as there is but a little more to write about on that question, what I have to say in this communication will be but little. There was occasionally little skirmish­ ing and chin music on the subject between the friends of the different locations, but most generally all the disputes ended by an appeal to tlie Bar. I don't mean a Bar of the legal persuasion, but a Bar where they took a smile, touched glasses and agreed in I true chivalric style that to the victor belonged the spoils, and to let by gones be by gones. The County Com­ missioners Court convened the 23d day of January 1844, when upon motion of Aiviii Judd he was released from his bond to build a Ct>urt House and donate two acres of ground to the County for a public square and George C. Dean substituted in his place. This order of the Court was strongly resisted by McClure, the attorney for parties in McHenry, but as the Conrt stood two andoue--not seven and eight--the mo­ tion prevailed. The Court at this time consisted of Bela H. Tryon, Hesea B. Throop and Andrew Haywood, and upon all questions in reference to the County Scat, they divided pretty much according to individual preferences, Throop and Haywood for the center and Tryon against; and the records In reference to all proceedings had on that question shows two against one. On the 4th day of September, the Court then beiug in session, Ephram W. Smith by McClure, his attorney, came into Court and filed his protest against making proclamation for the removal of tlie County Seat, on account of the imperfect title that Judd had to the land upon which the Court House was erected, Which was spread upon the records of the Court, aiul that seems to have been all the notice taken of it, for on the 5th. the day following, the Court House was accept­ ed and a proclamation made of it, and the Sheriff, Henry M. Walt, now of Woodstock,ordered to remove all books fend papers, of a public character that belonged to the County to Centerville, as the place was then called, on the 23d of September following, and the Cir­ cuit Court entered for record a similar order, all of which was executed by him. An effort was made by McCluro and others to enjoin the removal on that day. but the Muster in Chalicery, after hearing the bill read fcnd listen­ ing to the arguments in favor of grant­ ing the writ' of injunction, which lasted from one o'clock p. m. until twelve at night, denied the application, and that ended ail controversy on the subject, and the removal become fixed and certain. Thus ended a controver­ sy that had been upon tlie tapas for something like two years, In which at times much bitter feeling was mani­ fested between the partisans of the different locations, but which ended in a renewal of tlie friendly feelings that always does exist between the first settlers of a new country, and which had, to a very great degree existed among the early pioneers of this Coun­ ty. All of the hostile feelings engend­ ered in the contest was forgotten between the inhabitants of the eastern and western portions of the County, old friendships were renewed, and when 'the rival factions met for the first time at the March term of the Circuit Court, the Spring following the removal, no one would have supposed, without they were posted on the stfb- ject, that there had ever been anv feelings orcontroversey between them. Now Mr. Editor, having written much more on the removal of the County Seat than I had at first intend­ ed, I propose to close this communica­ tion by saying something about what I conceive to be the future of McHenry as a place of business and Its location as a village. The superiority and beau­ ty of the location is the first thing that commends itself to the eye of a stranger as he enters the place, with the beautiful and majestic Fox Blver flowing gently along through it, pro­ ducing a scenery unsurpassed In grand­ eur and sublimity, its fine and exten­ sive water power, affording faculties for manufacturing that is not possessed by any other location in the County, the large extent of country both in this and Lake Counties, that Is tribu­ tary to it, the people of which must necessarily do their business there, the fine places of resort as fishing and hunting grounds just above and around it, on the river and .lakes, the facilities for steamboat rides and excursions, the fine schools and school house, the great liberality of the merchants and business men, the unsurpassed hotel accommodations, the liberal, hospital and intellectual character of Its Inhab­ itants, the great enterprise manifested in building and In making solid and permanent Improvements, by its In­ habitants, all combined, make it a very desirable place to live and locate in. either for business purposes or for settlement, and in my humble judge­ ment Its populition fojk very short time/will exceed that of afty other vilhtge in the County. I know Its inhabitants, its surroundings, its great facilities for manufacturing, its desira­ bleness as a location to live in and tlou't think that it is any exageratlon to say that Its future will be the metropolis of McHeury County. Adiet:« AXJLD LANG SINK, WASHINGTON COURKSPONmCTflHfc WAS«WOTOW, D. C. April 8th, 1878. The Author's Carnival holds sway amusement for the public four nights this week. This is the third year such an entertainment has been given for the benefit of the Woman's Christian Association, and it has been pronounced tlie best of Washington's getting up in the way of amusement. It seems to me hardly so fine this year as it was last, but the scene last evening was oni of rare brilliancy and grotesque mim­ icry. Upon eutering the hall the first booth Is In the form of an old upturned boat-hulk ^Peggitty^ijmd within are seen the most remarkable of Dlcken'a characters which need no explanations. The Artful Dodger is there picking everybody's pockets; Miss Flite, with her bird cages; Mrs. Micr.wler with her twins; Aunt Betsy Tratwood, showing oft the donkeys; Cap;. Cuttle with his hook hand; the Pickwick Club and Sam Weller; will In' Barkis and his Peggoty Gulp, the dwarf, and a score of others* Another booth shows Whltter's snow bound cottage containing the serene Quaker family, and open Are with a big white cat curled up cemfortably on the hearth-rug. Rip Van Winkle stretches and cracks and wonders about in a wonder-stricken sort of way. Aludln'8 Cave is a wonderous depth of glittering rocks adjoining his palace wherein sets the hero of fairy land, with his princess, magicians* and at­ tendants. One booth Is fitted up with shells, coral, sea weed and rocks to rep­ resent Jule Verne's "Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea." The Queen and her attendants are In sea green tarlton with trailing mosses' for trim­ mings and coral and pearls for orna­ ments. But the most attractive booth to many is that which is fitted up as an artists studio, wherein sits Vinnie Beam modelling a bust from the life. Her subject is client Hexie to whom report says Miss Vinnie is engaged to be mar­ ried. He is a fat, red-faced man with very curly hair, a very double-chin and a deep scar over one eye brow which the little sculptress takes extra pains to bring out in clay. Perhaps It is the sign of some battle wound. Congress appears to be setting down for an all summer session, and the city ptvts on airs accordingly. Usually by this time reut prices are coming down, housekeeping is breaking up and win­ ter furnishings of all sorts are being packed away. But now It is net so.-- The continuance of Congress will keep an ever new, ever charging populace here. Lobbyists, efllce-seekers, tour­ ists an^ sight-seers will combine to keep rents and board as high as during the winter months, which Is never the case when Congress is not In session. Washington is in very truth a city of strangers. "Furnished Rooms," "Rooms to Let" and "Table Board" greet you from pasteboard cards tacked upon, many house fronts in nearly every square and restaurants and numerous and dreary and comfortless. Many people make their living and more by taking boarders and renting rooms.-- Persons owning large fine houses often live with their families in the base­ ment and attic renting all the othor rooms at good prices. Of course much wear and tear comes te furnished apartments In this way. People, es­ pecially transient boarders, rarely treat other peoples belongings with the cure they do their fwn, hence the high rents they and othell are forced to pay. The greater proportion of these comers and goers whom we call transients are office-seekers. Tou can tell them after a little study or experience. They come here hopeful and eiatod.. They often ge away haggard and forlorn.-- Disgust and disappointment are the meat of too many. It is only the fa­ vored few, usually by no means the most worthy or needy, who are suc­ cessful in this degrading chase after Government poeitione. I say degrad­ ing, for it. often ends in that, be It suc­ cessful or otherwise. OLIVK. How women can manage to sit bolt upright and not change a posi­ tion, looking neither to the right nor left, during a sermon In chjurch. passes the understanding. A mitn will sit on a picket fence all the afternoon to see a ball match, but put him in a church- pew for three-quarters of an hour and he will wabble all ever the seat. Postal DflinqacMk# Papers come here from Xrtjptad-Witb merely a thin strip psirfVtf srtntrtd them, which Is ofteii d'exffftfed by abrasion, before they reach1 heft, pre­ venting delivery. On th« 4th of March last elegant imperial- ytftots- graphs of two young ladies rtwhed here from Lendon, with the wrapper and addresses entirely gone. The tist had his card on the backs, with the numbers of the negatives' and Post­ master Filley wrote to him, sending the numbers, and requesting the ad­ dress of the person for whom they were intended. Yesterday an answer was received, and the photographs were delivered to the proper party. An empty package directed te Can­ ton, 111., came to the Post-office here by mistake, In a very dilapidated con­ dition. It consisted of a small, sligh- ly-constructed paste-board box. with no protection other than a sirlp of paper pasted around it. Both ends were smashed out, and the contents-- supposed to have been jewelry from the packing--had slipped out. A species of carelessness, very annoy­ ing to the Post-office officials, is fre­ quently practiced by persons mailing letters, and consists of the sender opening tlie letter after It lias been sealed, and sticking it together again with paste or mucilage, thus leaving the receiver to suspect that it tikd been tampered with In the Post-olRce. Two letters have been received here within a week with the end of the en­ velopes cut open and fastened again with pi us. The postmaster returns thein when he knows who they are from.--St.Lnuin RepitUcan, A Big Wheat Crop. From all wheat regions come reports of flattering prospects. Winter wheat Is very fine and the acreage is larger than ever before in this country. Of the prospect in the west* a correspond­ ent lays: •'In riding 30,000 miles through the winter wheat belt of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois. Missouri and Kansas, I have not seen two pieces of bad wheat. It all looks magnificent. Everywhere too. the ucreage is increased. In south, em Illinois I see thousands ef acres of wheat where I have not see;i it grow fug for several years. Kansas Is ene great wheat field. There seems to have been a winter-wheat mania In that state. Every farmer caught the dis­ ease last fall, and again during Feb­ ruary and March, when the weather was so warm, a second mania struck Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Missouri and Kansas. Then, for the first time for years, they sowed large quantities of spring wheat In February, and to day we see, especially In Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Illinois, the astonishing anomaly ef fields of winter and spring wheat growing side by side. The winter wheat is waiving In the wind, a beautiful yellow green, about six inches high, while the spring wheat Is out of the ground about twe I aches." ggr The gold bu£3 -re keeping up their fight against the silver law, and doing all they can to defeat its, opera­ tions. They are just now howling tremendously over the recent shipment of twe or three millions of gold from this country to Europe, and they pre­ tend to account for the, shipment by saying that "the enactment of the silver bill has frightened foreign hold­ ers of our bonds into sending them home in such heavy amounts that tho exchanges are turned against us, and we are haviug to pay for .the securities with gold that siiould liave been kept at home tu aid the resumptlofi ef spe­ cie payments." Now, the fact is that out* bonds never are sent home unless there is somebody here who would rather have them than the gold they are worth in Europe, and It fs very probable that the exchange would be very advantageous to this country.-- But the movement of gold alluded to is susceptible of a different explanation. In the first place. Secretary SHERMAN, an enemy of the silver law, Is buying silver with gold In Europe. In the next place, the war prospect has caused ths Bank of England to put up the rate of discount end accumulate all the gold in reach. It is to be expected that this will cause a greater or less drain of gold from this country, a drain that would ruin us if we were on a gold basis. f6?*0n or before May first the Illi­ nois Central railroad company will run their trains through Elgin instead, of over the Iowa railroad. Condutors will run from Chicago to Dubuque, but engineers will have a lav-off at Free- port. The train which leaves Chicago switches off at South Branch junotion coming west, and on going east will enter the Union depot, foot of Lake street, instead of entering the Wells street depot. The supposition at present is that trains on tlie North­ western road will meet at this place.-- Elgin Bluff" City. Cfstscee Wertfsof Wisdom.
