He is now pre­ pared to furnish farmers with good machinery and at reasonable terms. UP to last Saturday, the proud boast was ours that we hadn't fallen down this winter. Now we have a prouder: that, although we tumbled down on a corner, we didn't look around to see whether any-one was looJdng at W WE would ask our readers, attention to anew advertisement which appears in our columns--that ot English, the New York Tea Merchant. Parties or­ dering Tea would do us a favor by mentioning this paper. !WE would notify our correspondent H. that the communication relating to an "unpaid board bill," Is not admis- sable to the column of a newspaper. Certainly not. It should be refered to the Centennial Committee, with pow­ er. ' TJTE ELECTION In this 8<frrooT District on Saturday last for one School Direct­ or in place of Richard Bishop, whose term of office had expired, resulted iji/ the election of Dr. H* T. Brown. The Board now stands J. M. Smith, F.K. Granger.. H. T. Brown. • « * THE Marengo Republican says: ^A Short Horn Durham cow belonging to H.M. Throne on Saturday night last gave birth to three heifer calves looking exactly alike, and weighing respect­ fully 38, 3* and 40 lbs. Twp of them , are alive and doing well. *&HE next Sociable by the Ladies ©f the Universalist Society will be held at the residence of Philo D. Smith on Thursday evening of this week. The "latch string" will hang out, and all those who wish to enjoy"a good social time are cordially invited. / ^ IT certainly can't be expected of a newspaper man that he shall start out and personally chastise everybody who disagrees with liTm. It is quite enough if he opens wide the office door and invites all who disagree with him to waltz In and chastise him--if they can. Y WE-saw at Bishop^s Warehouse a few Nlays^ince a neW Wagon which was made for Wm. Stevens, which he is to use in seJling Agricultural Implements Tvr Mr. Bishop. It was well built, nicely painted and lettered, and will make a very handsome turnout for the purpose for which it is intended* IT is more than suspected that this is to be a season for excursions, festivi­ ties and recreation on and along Fox ^ver and the adjoining Lakes, such as was never known before. The tide of Slimmer pleasure «cckers is setting that way more and more, and during the Centennial year it is likely to be enor­ mous. Notwithstanding the hard times our merchants are doing agood business, far ahead, in fact of many former years. A gentleman informs us that he coun­ ted twenty two customers in one of our business houses one day last w.eek, at one time, and Ave busy waiting upon them.. Can any other town in the .coun­ ty equal that t WE are under obligations to our Artist, B. A. Ford, tor a nice assort­ ment of Views, among which are his splendid loe Views spoken of two weeks ago, and also some Views of Fox Lake and vicinity. Ford is now doing some splendid work in his line, and Is crowded with customers from morning until night. Call and see his splendid assortment of Views. LAST week our exchanges came with various comments upon the weather. "Mud," "Snow," "Bain," ' Hail," "Sleet," "Time to make garden,'" "Spring has come," and "This is another winter,"* are the various ways they have of de­ scribing the condition of the weather in their respective localities during one week. Better let it alone, gentle- man, It is a au ugly subject to handle. attention was called one day last week to an Iron Settee, Chair aud Stool, a present to O. Bishop from Emerson & Co., Bockford. They are neat, substantial, and certainly the best of the kind we ever saw. For a lawn or Croquet Ground they are just the thing. Any one wishing a set can get them reasonable try ordering through O. Bishop. i OBSERVE critically the five-cent pieces when they are handed to you for change, as numerous counterfeits of this Interesting coin arc in circulation. The genuine five-cent piece,like several other things, is made by our old and esteemed friend, Uncle Sai$u wfcobas s monopoly of the business. --^ - T77*. •'* u THE papers of several counties are noticing many very old inhabitants and relics. The oldest here in McHenry county is Father Time, and it is gener­ ally conceded that his age is nearly six thousand years, while a large num­ ber of people insist that it is many millions of years. Notwithstanding his great age he is the swiftest travel­ er in the known world. WE understand the Steamboat "Athlete" which was sold at Auction and bought by Capt. E. Griswold, will be remodeled this Spring, considerably lightened, put in first class trim, and be run between McHenry and the L*kes for the accommodation bf Plcnlo arid pleasure parties. With two good Steamboats on the river there will be no lack of accommodations far the pleasure aeeklng public.; : v V WR last week examine# at­ tachment to a Corn Planter, lately Pat­ ented by L. Francisco, of this village, and must say that it is one of the most simple and useful inventions that we ever saw. It is so attached to the Planter that it will drop one pnmpkin seed In every other hill, and that by the same motion of the lever that drops the corn. We tfelieve that no farmer who uses a planter will be without one. ' Call at Francisco's shop and see ltwork. '• "*•?' *VH 'V' In another column can be fottwd a new advertisement of J. Si. Smith, dealer in Hardware, Stoves, Tinware, Farming Tools, &c„ in which he in­ forms the public that he is prepared with a full stock of goods in his line to giVe them bargains never before offered in McHenry county. Taking advantage of the low market he has put in a large and well selected ptock of goods, and guarantees to suit his customers both in quality and price. Read his advertise­ ment aud give him a call. . 4 THE Public School opened on Mon­ day after a weeks, vacation. The Teachers how are S. D. Baldwin, Prin­ cipal; Miss Lola Bishop, Assistant, and Oliver N. Owen. Teacher of the G age- town Division. Mr Baldwin as Princi­ palis giving universal satisfaction^ the patrons of,the School, and all agree that'McHenry never had so good a School as now, We tfiist that during the present term parents will show their interest by visiting the N School, thus encouraging both scholars and Teachers. . FOR the benefit of Base Ballists we would state that bnt very-few changes in the rules of base ball have been pro­ posed this season, the principal one being that bf equalizing the penalty inflicted on the batsman aiul pitcher, the former for not striking at fair balls and the latter for not sending in balls within reach of the bat. The amended rule requires a ball to be called for every unfair ball delivered,, instead of every third, as last season; while it allows the batsman to let one fair ball pass him instead of being obliged to strike at every fair ball delivered. BUCKLIN & STEVENS, whose store can be fonnd near the Depot, have a new advertisement in this paper to which we would call the especial attention of our readers. Their stock of Spring and Summer goods is large and well selected, and bought with especial ref- eranee to the wants of this community, and will be sold at prices to suit the times. This firm, since they started in business, have gained an enviable repu­ tation for hoinest. square dealing, and now command a ltirge and increasing trade. Read their advertisement and call and examine their goods. THAT McHenry is picking u£I< evi­ denced by the fact that village lots are now in demand aiid are selling at a fair price. E. M. Owen, disposed of four or five within t|ie past two weeks, and parties arc now negotiating with him for several more. As we have before said there is no more healthy or pleas- anter locality in the West, nor a village where the future business prospects are better. More new buildings will prob­ able be erected here this year than for ten years past. Let the good work go on. Our prediction that McHenry is destined to be th<? first town i^ the county, in point of business is sure- * to be verified. 'WE inadvertantly omitted to notice last week the receipt of a fine lot of Centennial loe Views, of Woodstock agd vicinity, accompanied with the compliments of J. S. Medlar, the "boss" Photographer of that burg. To say that they are splended does not half tell it. They certainly can't be beat. These Views comprise all the Public Buildings, the business houses around the Square, and views of the different streets, with tlie trees bending and broken uuder their heavy ice coat. Every family in McHenry county should have a set of these views, not only be­ cause they are splendid Views, but as Centennial remembrances of our County Seat. As an Artist Medlar has few equals and no superiors, and while call* ing for a set of Centennial Views b«i sure and leave your measure for a Pho­ tograph or Painting. Tnfe Annual Tillage Election tor. officers of the village of McHenry, will be h^ld on Tuesday, April 18th, for the election of six Trustees, and One Clerk. - * t - * • ->4 •&- .

What it Could be we could not guess, but as we kept a sharp lookout, he soon departed. We were not sharp enough to prevent him accomplishing his designs, for after he had departed we discovered a hand­ some Morocco Pocket Album and Card Case, on the inside of which, we found a note which read: UB. A. Ford's com­ pliments to his friend J. Van, Slyke." What we have ever done to merit this usage at the hands of Mr. Ford we know not, bnt when we get the Album full of Photographs of owr friends, taken in Ford's inimitable style, we certainly shall consider it a prize. J&r, F. will please accept thanks. WE are glad to be able to announce to our readers that W. W. Bug bee aud Jos. Freund have formed a copartner­ ship and leased the. Machine Shop for­ merly owned by Owen Bros.,just South of the Mill, which they have opened and are now ready to do Jobbing aud Repairing of all kind^, and intend, as soon as arrangements can be completed, to commence a general manufacturing business. This is just what McHenry has long needed, a manufacturing in­ terest of some Hind, and now that one Is started In our midst our citizens should lend^a helping hand in every way possible. Among the things we believe they contemplate manufactur­ ing is the Middling Purifyer, for Mills. Messrs Bugb^e & Freund are both prac tical go-ahead men, and the fact that they have taken hold of tiiis matter Is evidence that it will "he a success. Therefore we heartily welcome the opening of the firgtf ihkmifaefuring in­ terest .In McHenry, and confidently predict that we shall be able to chronl- •cle others inside the next twelve months. ON Thursday eVefiHig last Marshal Eldrldge and Constable ' Wightm'an, under the direction of Sheriff Church, went to District No. 5 for the purpose of arresting Tlios. Phalon, who is uuder indictmeut for assault. They found him at the School House, where an ex­ hibition was in progress, and ho was arrested by Eldridge,but being one of the prinepal actors in the Exhibition he begged to be allowed to go through with his part, when he itfould go along with the officers. Eldredgc, very un­ wisely we think,allowed him to do so. but when he got through he made a break for the door, and while two men held Wightman and Eldredge being at the other end of the room, he managed to make his escape io the dark. This last part of the programme is liable to prove a sore job for those who held Wightm%n,as the law is very strict in regard to interfering "with an officer while in the discharge of his duty. Phalon is still at large and likely to be for some time to come, as he has un­ doubtedly "left his country for his country Ts goo A" The "Boys" had con­ siderable fun over the matter on Friday and we suspect that Sheriff Church received several dispatches the mean­ ing bf which he found it hard to de­ cipher. Well the "boys" must have their fun and the gtetims must pay for it. Elegant patterns of Notingham Cur­ tain Lace from 20 cts.. and upwards.

I must say they all acted their parts well with few exceptions. We al­ so thauk the band for their assistance on that occasion. The person appointed to bring them home is especially thank­ ful to them as th^ roads were bad on that occasion. The things they left in their hurry they can have by applying to any of the directors as they may need them on some other occasion. We intend t^ have the new piece called "The Brave Officers, or the Leap for Life," acted in the next exhibition. JOHN KNOX, J*. A NEW THING.

The Annual Town Meeting oa Tues­ day proved the most exciting, and not­ withstanding the horrid condition bf the roads, drew cut the largest YOte that has, been polled for several years. There were two tickets In the field, viz: The Peoples' Ticket, headed by J. W. Cristy for Supervisor, and the In­ dependent Ticket, headed by John M. Smith. A good deal of scratching was done, and while all seemed in earnest, the best of feeling prevailed. Three hundred and ninety eight votes were polled, which resulted In the election of the Supervisor, Town Clerk and Road Commissioner on the Independ­ ent Ticket, by majorities ranging from ^Q/to 51, and the Collector, Assessor, and Justice of the Peace on the Peo­ ples' Ticket, by majorities from If to 66... ..

Plenty of cobbling, besides a fair amount of new work to make to order. They lbok happy. Physicians are doing^ hard service. Country practice Is like the old Prac­ tice of drawing teeth, it is hard pulling, tearing business. Blacksmiths are anticipating a good trade this Spring, They have been an- ticapating it all winter and Spring thus far, but still believe the good time is coming. To say the roads are simply horrible, gives but;a faint idea of the traveling One to realize how it Is needs only to harness a Pet horse before a buggy and attempt to dri^e a few miles. Fine prospects for warm Spring weather when farmers can be at work putting in spring crops, with fine roadd. The cheese factories are all being reno- vated and put in first rate condition for business.
