THS tee Harvest on the Pond HAS been progressing rapidly the past week, from BO to 75 car* a day being loaded.

There has been one case in the west part of the town and a mild case of vereloid in the south part, but these two are entirely well, the p-emises have been well fumigated, and all danger of its spreading is now passed. This state of things is due to our efficient Health Officer, Dr. O. J. Howard, who spent his entire time In the matter, and is certainly desiring of the greatest praise. We again say that all stories that there is Small Pox In McHenry are false. There is not ito-day a single case in the town. As our Woodstock correspondence was closed on Saturday morning, quite a number of items of Interest which happened later was missed. Among these we learn the following from private sources: On Sunday night a Are broke out in the basement of Miller's Bakery, on the South side of the Square. It burned through the first floor, and some lively work was required to sub­ due it. It was supposed to be the work of an incendiary. We have not learned further particulars. JOHN A. PARISH, an old resident and prominent and highly respected citi­ zen of Woodstock, died at his resi­ dence, in that city,on Tuesday morn­ ing. Our correspondent will undoubt­ edly give us full particulars next week. WE are in receipt of the Breeders Live-Stock Journal and copy of their Oil Chromo representing a group of Hereford cattle. Among cattle men there is no feature attracting so much attention as that of the Hereford cat­ tle. While they are an old breed in England they are comparatively a new one in tliis'country, and the breeders are developing a wonderful enterprise in pushing their merits. The leadl'ig feature of these developements is the establishment of the Breeders Live Stock Journal, which is devoted large­ ly to the interest of the Hereford*.-- It comes to us now in a new form, and double Its former size. The Chromo is a new feature. It is a fine work of art, creditable to the designer, to the artist, aed to the engravers, it bring* before tlie public a life like representa­ tion ot this fine breed of cattle, while the Journal brings forward their merit* in an able and convincing manner. We commend both the Journal and the sister. Inquest was held mangled corpse sent to the "home at Turner Junction. and the mothers /a H. H.

TL L.JAMES, who HAS^FITEII here for the past two weaks, putting our Iron Bridge in shape, which waft racked by the ioe last winter, finished the job -on Mondav, and now the bridge stands as straight and solid as it did the day it was first finished. Mr. James is deserv­ ing of great credit for the matiher which he has done this work. While he has bad large experleaon In bridge building, and repairing the same, he had never seen or attempted a job just like this one, and many had said the heavy piers never could be straighten­ ed. But Mr. James is a practical man, and while he was aware that it was no easy job, he went at It in a business like way, and the result was eptirely satisfactory.

The events of the past week have been few, but little of import having transpired. The donation gathering on Friday evening last, at the residence of Mr. Toles, was largely atteuded,some two hundred of the social and happy peo­ ple of Greenwood and surroundin? country/being present, who evidently fulfilled the mission of their visit by leaving some eighty dollars, as a token of their esteem and regard, for the benefit of the Rev. John Young. The evening passed ofiTln a very pleasant and social manner, iuter9|>er«ed With fine music which rang through the flue and spacious parlors, and fell sweetly upon the ear of the feasting and toil­ ing ones in the dining room* and kitchen adjacent. Mr. and Mrs. Toles are well worthy of the many thanks which they sincerely have from the membeis and friends of the Baptist society for their generous hospitality in opening their doors and extending a kindly welcome to the use of their fine house. They both have the pe­ culiar faculty af making their guests feel perfectly at home. While it is not onr object or aim to laud upon anv undue credit or praise for their good deeds, or for the labor performed In preparing and in assisting and waiting upon the tables, for all did nobly aud worked faithfully until the last. Still we deem it no more than due to make particular mention of Miss E1U liotch- kiss. In this connection, as worthy of especial credit, working faithfully and with a natronly care, which few young ladies of the present day pos­ sess, We can only add that here is a prize for some worthy young iran. as we are cettaln no other need apply.' Our faithful and accommodating mail carrier, "Jabez Ratbery" of whom mention was made last week, was made the recipient of a hue buflaJo robe on Saturday morning last by the patrons of the office.

A prominent New York Republican said to a correspondent that if Senator Conkling would run for Governor of that State he would be the nominee of the Republican party next fall. He said that he sincerely hoped that he would, because he would as surely he elected as nominated, and then if lie could get Sam 1'ildeu to run on the Democeatic ticket it would make a lively canvass aud would help the Con­ gressional elections, which usually go by default to a greater or less extent in the off years. He said his friends had no assurance that Mr. Conkling would accept the nomination, but it would be tendeMed him, and the utmost efforts would be made to induce him to accept it and to make the canvass. Some of the papers in this con­ gressional district are using the name of A. J. Hopkinifof this city, in con­ nection with the next congressional election. Mr. Hopkins is busily en­ gaged in building up an excellent bus­ iness as attorney, and could not afford to give up his practice and go to con­ gress even if assured of success, and he is too honorable a gentleman to permit the political monkeys to use Ills name as a cats-paw to rake their chestnuts out of the fire.--Aurnra Herald.

Postmaster Sacket, of Garden Prairie, who is a cripple, left Ills oxtlce and came to Marengo every day utter Dr. Adams took charge of the MarengO office and did all in his power 'IO1 assist him in getting started right, all of which will not be forgotten by the Dr. ami his friends at home and throughout the county;' In our last weeks communication we Mild that it was generally understood here that Mr. E. T. Gleiiuon, Junior Editor of the Woodstock Sentinel, had been given a vacation and we remark­ ed that we supposed the }roung gentle­ man would come home and liven up his paper a little by writing some of those mbtimc and forcrable editorials which have been sadly missed by the readers of tlie Sentinel since his departure to Chicago. We now find that we were iu error a6 regards the vacation spoken of aud that instead Mr. Gleuuon's head was clipped when the regular clean­ ing out process wag gone through with III Mr. Spalding's office last week, but that through the influence of the old war horse of the political aflairs of his county (who by the way has got through with his labors as a juror In the U. S. Court at Chicago, arrived home la*t Friday aud stands once more upon his native heath) aud by Post- master Southworth appealing to the county officers to "help^s o*we sink," because the Sentinel could not!\ survive even" with the post office at its back unless given another government office, and the}', the officers mentioned.know­ ing what a vast amount of telling work the Sentinel always does for its friendn iu time of need, unless on the last day in the afternoon,"jiwt before the bat­ tle mother,*' they happen to tlv the track or kick over the traces, which is a trick they are not at all backward in doing aud they heve had much and quite recent experience in the per­ formance ot these back banded somer­ saults. Nevertheless the endorsements were given and eveity one conversant with such affairs know wlii. Yet there is not a single one of these same officials but have been repeatedly heard to remark that they considered the Sentinel the poorest and weakest editod paper in the county, and they dare not deny it. Upon receiving such endorsements the burly P. M. went to Chicago and laid the case before the proper authorities.

For fear that anything real startling and brilliant that may appear In the editorial column of the Sentinel this week should be laid to the Junior Editor as having written It, aud because we are always anxious tp gyrrect and make right any wrong impression we make the above correction. If the readers of the PLAINDEALER n'otice that no items of news appears later than Saturday moruhig in our column they must be^fr w tl» ns for thi* time, for uot being allowed to gal her the news of the ea ly part of the week.
