AN exchange thus Dascribes the work of a cyclone: "It turned a well wrong side ont in the state of Mississippi; turn­ ed a cellar upside down in Wisconsin; moved a township line in Nebraska; blew all the staves out of a whiskey bar­ rel in Iowa and left nothing but the bung bole; changed the day of the week in Ohio; killed an honest Indian agent in the far west; blew the hair of a baldhead- ed road in Texas; killed a truthful lawyer in Illinois; blew the mortgage off a farm ia Minnesota; scared a red-headed woman in Michigan; blew the cracks out of a fence in Dakota, and took all the wind out of & political orator in Maine. THE real power of a newspaper to draw trade to it own town, or direct the trade in c aer channels can hardly be estimated; *nd what is more, it is a matter that k hnxdly ever even consider­ ed as an important factor in the town's prosperity, for the simple reason that it is not thought of by business men. He who will give the matter a moment of un­ biassed thought will be the last man to pot h! pooh! the idea. The local paper that is receiving a good living patronage from the town in which it is published, will guard well the interests of that town with jealous care, just the name as the intsrasts of his It seldom falls to our lot to attend a pleasanter party than that which joined the above mentioned bans in happy wedlock. It was made a very enjoyable occasion to all who were present (mostly family relations,) and abundance oi hearty cheer was had, aad many expres­ sions of good-will, and congratulations of tender regard greeted the happy pair who were now starting out to make their entrance upon life in their new re­ lations. Mr. Ladd and wife were seem­ ing at their best. Among the pleasant rememberances in a more substantial way, were the numerous gifts of a gener­ ous character of which the rarties were made recipients. Refreshments were bountifully provided, and every one seemed willing to do their part in making way with calre and coffee, and other di­ gestible fixings. Time passed rapidly, and long before the little wee hours, the friends were ready to disperse with their earnest "good-bye" and cordial wishes for the couple that the occasion might prove one of the most precious mile-stones upon the whole journey of their lives. The brid/>grooiri was( pleased to show us the plans of a house which he proposes to build in the early spring, when the chosen bride will succeed to the "Manor born," as Queen of the Manse.

Mr. McOmber is one of our brightest young business men, straightforward <*uu reliable in every particular, and with a push and energy that will be sure to keep the business up to its present high standard. He has a large stock of goods with a trade established that is second to none in this section, and with hosts of friends, no young man' has a brighter business prospect before him. Look out for his new advertisement in these col-, urnns next week. scrutiny of the ne# Columbian half dollar reveals on the collar sur­ rounding the head of the famous discov­ erer, a small but well defined letter "B." Ry the aid of a microscope, or even a small magnifying glass it is easily distin­ guishable, and after it has been once lo­ cated by the aid of the glass can be plain­ ly discerned by the naked eye. The letter is very small and is located on the extreme edge of the collar, almost over and slightly to the left of the letter "B" in the word "Columbian." It is exactly similar in size and design to the letters placed on silver dollars to designate the mint at which they are .coined. Jnst what the "B" on the Columbus coin is intended for is not known.
