UimgBBt H»d confiding Garceioti ^ »uit»«notied before1 tlie fnveo- «Onmailtt«e of the M»in« hire, and. in imitation of the 'Democratic Reformer In whose interests the Maine fraud is not the only one that has boen .concoct­ ed, asserted under oath, hi* profound Igftomooe of niiy fraudulent tampering with the election returns of that State. The Committee on Elections opened ••id tabulated the returns, and he knew nothing in regard to the result. Cer­ tificates were brought him to *ig"« which he supposed were made out in Accordance with the returns. He first learned of the counting out through the papers and was pleasantly surprised fct tlce result. Garcelon's claim to a place on the Democratic Presidential ticket. along with Tilden. can no longer tte ienored. Niieh an Innocent" and simple pair with their unbounded trust and confidence in the honesty of the world In general, and their immediate nosnclMtes fn particular, would com­ mand universal admiration and support Kmi the Ghost of Cronin would smile as <t contemplated the immaculate pair. WC*ARD aa^r. Z, DIXON, Managing Partner Formerly Traveling salesmn W. B\ Quail ' |0* In Logan's Great speech last week, he drew sharp contrast be­ tween the dilatory action of Fitz John Porter when ordered Into battle by Pope, and that of another corps commander Gen. Hurlbut when or­ dered Into astion by Grant. Hurlbut with 6.000 men lay abont fortr miles from Corlntli, while Rosen- crans occupied another angle of a tri­ angle of which Corinth was the apex. Grant telegraphed to Hurlbut to march immediately to a certain point near l/orinth. Hurlbut replied repeating Ms orders and adding **If I under­ stand these orders they involve the lost of my entire command.1* Grant replied simply, **Yon understand my orders." Hnrlbut moved forward; ytitapched thirty-two miles without liiiiiipiiig; and lost about one-third of Apis men; but his prompt action result- Si in compelling tbf evacuation of Corinth--a glorious victory for the Union army. . When Grant next met Hnrlbut, he told him- that when he sent that or- dsr !;? Jieverexpected to see him again Hurlbut replied, that is what I expec­ ted when I started to obey. If Gen. Pope had had Hurlbut in place of Fits John Porter, a glorious Union victory would in all probability have resulted, and the war might have been ?hort- ehied by years.--Sycamore Republican. V*The thing to do Is to enlarge the Illinois and Michigan Canal into a ship ' iinal, and improve the connecting 1111- Dfip river to the same «nd. This tKoi^dtolve the Chicago drainage and (Br problem, and at the same time Kjgive the commerce ©f a vast region of ||onntry the benefit of cheap freights im the Mississippi and Missouri riv pjirs to the seaboar j. via rivers, lakes ^and cauals that would be navigable by Steamer*. The people of the great ; Valley ol the Mississippi could not do wiser thing than to unite in [Strong pull, a long pnll. and a pull tn- [ Hether" to push this prnpvsitioa into | practical effect.--Journal. •©"Every week developes. new [proofs of the, unlimited wickedness of [those who attempted to steal the (government of Maine. An examination [of papers left by Governor Garcelon Ishowed that in one return which lud Ibeen thrown out because the middle letter of one name was H instead of A. Ithe H appeared to have been changed nroin A by scratching and rewriting.- fThe town clerk of the town for which tins return was made was summoned nd swore that tjje letter was written and that he never made an II in the aay in whlch that was made. , , Ewiiw^Pi.Ai^iffiis^-^he Lotti«i- ana «o|jM«d Jubilee Singers" hoiked their M|eop, yipped their yaws, and cut their monkey shines to the great delight of a large and enthusiastic audience on Tuesday evening last. The debating society was squelched by these "artist^' who drew away the de­ baters and compelled a poetponment. It i* good to know what kind of an en- tortalnment just suits YTaueonda** cultured amusement seekers. The Wednesday evening Party by the Terps.C!ub, was well attended and everything passed of! pleasantly and satlstactorlly. Fifty-eiglil couples were present. • St. Patricks day passed without an event worthy of note to distinguish it from any other hum drum daj' iu Wauconda. The Auction Sato of Mr. Richard Bonner was largely attended la?t Thursday. After the sale,in the after* noon, a goodly number who had gathered in the village street were amused by an exhibition trot--an im­ promptu aflair. One of the horses went faster than the other one, at- least it was so stated by a bystandet. Either could probably "go in 7 minutes". Many farmers have returned to their first love and are carrying their milk to the factory again. Several more are arranging to follow suit. The factory then, is iu for a small, "boom," en its own hook. Messrs. R. C. Hill and W. H. Ford set for their neighbors and for farmers generally a most excellent example last week. They each took a, team and scraped the roads down in fine shape. The advantages ofsueh a performance to thejarmer are as plain "that a way- fairing man though you all know the rest. The Almanac advertised Spring, to begin at 50 minutes past 11 on Friday evening last. Several young men here who took their girls out to see if they could see any change iu the weather or appearance of things took severe colds, an da half dosen mangy looking robins.- who tried to carry out the programme next morning, nearly froze to death. Mr. M. G. Sheldon, State deputy I. O. G. T.. is announced to speak in Good Templars Hail on next Saturday evening the 27th. The G. T. will hold open lodge. The exercises will be enlivened with appropriate music, songs, recitations Ac. Everybody is invited. The I'eachers held an Institute on Saturday. Slitfi attendance in the fore­ noon, but b^Uer in tlie afternoon. The feature of the day was the lecture on chemistry, illustrated by pleasing experiments and conducted br Mr. J. W. Lamson, our resident teacher, Saturday evening a number of the teachers and others indulged In a "bit of dUcoosliin" ou the Irish question, in Maimants Hall. It for their next de­ bate they want a live question we would like to suggest:--Resolved-- The men who stealthe market reports out of the daily papers exposed for sale in the stores are simply ignorant and have no thievish instincts. Scandal's forked tongue is again bmv with the names of ^ young man, his wife and a third party. Glad are we, that no one as yet have given us any of the "particulars.1* The charitably disposed are having these days, a line chance to exercise that rare and beautiful "grace" the greatest of the three. These «nipe shooting stories and these strictly hon­ orable parties who have arranged the numbers of the puzzle consecutively when the lpst three stood 15,14.13, are getting numerous. Charity says: No man would lie for a ten cent puzzl# and charity in our opinion is a brick. Of course they wouldn't lie-e-e-e. FARM FOR SALE.
