Truer words were never * KSrThe absorbing question In Wash­ ington politico just now Is who is to b« tfie stiecesxor to the law Postmaster General Howe. Ths President seems to be disposed to take plenty of time in making the appointment, but. the amount of gratuitous advice that he Is ItaUy receiving is truly astonishing. "The Woodstock correspondent of the Harvard Independent, lias the fol­ lowing in his letter of week before last: 1 I In tlie Sealing of two weeks ago there appeared a card from Postmaster South Worth, in which he takes occasion to thank the business men. the members of the bar, the comity officials, and the ninny hundred friends who signed a petition, and also those who would so gladlv have done so if they had had an Opportunity.etc.. etc. We are at a logs to know whether the last clause wast meant for a j«ke or not, for it there |ras a man or boy within a radius of live to eight miles that did not hare that petition shoved under Ills nose, he hasn't shown np yet. It is well known t*> the people of this cotinfy that Mr. fm, H. Cowlin, a veteran and disabled anldier. was a candidate for the same office, and Mr. Southworth evidently aspected that his card would prove a crusher to Mr. Cowlin and his friend?, by making the public (as far as em­ braced in the readers of the Sentinel) believe that he (Southworth) WHS en­ dorsed by the business men, county of- •cers, and pretty much everybody else tw creation. Bn\ as usual, '"Gardy" •••put his foot Into it."* for it proved a fknomerang in the shape of a card from IIr. Cowlin, which apj eared in the dif­ ferent county papers, showing, to the •ntlresatisfaction of every fair-minded reader, that he (Oowlin) was endorsed . l»y a majority of the county officer*. •nd tjfiat he presented an array of ••backing." not only from the tewn of y t>orr, hut from representative men " throughout MeHenry Co. and northern Illinois, almost unheard of. As every ? person in MeHenry enitnly has had. or Will have an opportunity to read Mr, Cowlin's card, wo will leave it with , t. them to judge of tlu* mutter. Why Mr. tJowlin failed to. receive the appoint- h>c..; «;I! ;.c. be m the tire satisfaction (or dis* Uisfaction) of llr. Southworth and his friends, not Only in Woodstock, but in Washington, ahouM they desire it. The particulars of another little transaction by five •'prominent citizens," which took place /during the contest, would prove mighty Interesting reading matter to the pub­ lic, while It would reveal a degree of treachery and deceit unheard of in the annals of Mcilenry county, We refer to a circular letter which was tacked to Mr. Southworth's petition, which in the light of late developments, ha* been shown to be an untruth from beginning to end. a copy ot which is in the hands of Mr. Cowlin's f riends, and may appear 'lo print some future time.

The caucus last Saturday was yery lively and interesting though a good deal one sided, the winning party nominating their men with a rush and whir that really aftected one's risibles. The opposition were few in number, but resolute, coming up to ballot with a firm tread, but retreating with a con­ sciousness of the defeat that awaited them. As a result of the caucus, the •Homlnations are as -follows: Super­ visor, Ira R. Curtiss; Assessor; tJeo. Heidin: Collector Henry Sanders; Road Commissioner, Patterson Pringle. The last three were re-elected. In the cor­ poration caucus a strong temperance hoard were nominated: B. S. Parker, Pres.; Dr. F. L. Xutt. Dr. D. K. Peck. Loren Woodard, Jared Teeple, Board. The temperance women of Marengo have commenced the organization of a W. C. T. A., and meet at the residence •f Mrs. Ira R. CurtUs next Friday evening to complete the same. If any of our ladies wish to become a Francis Wiilard, a Mrs. Hobart or an Elizabeth Cady Stanton, a good opportunity pre­ sents Itself in the above organization. A sociable was held at the residence of 3. K. Bartholomew last Wednesday evening, refreshments were served and a splendid good time was enjoyed by all. The grand opening of the Marengo Opera House takes place April 18th, at which time the Chicago Church Choir Opera Co., will render the beautiful opera of "Chimes of Normandy," Come one, come all. and hare a good time.

The Woodstock correspondent to the PLAINDEALER, In referring to the de­ sire of Alexander Stewart t > become ocr Supervisor, suggests that if the gentiemau would move Into town., he might easily secure the position of President of the Board of Trustees, and thus be entitled to a seat In the Supervisors* room.

Misses Ella and Rachel Townsend have lately returned from Sutherland, O'Brien County, Iowa, where they have been spending several months with their sister, Mrs. Geo. Carfield. Our farmers are becoming impatient for warm weather and good roads. No Railroad uews. Our schools are nearly all closed for the usual spring vacation. I think the schools generally in this county have been well patronized and duly appreci*. ated the past winter, with a few unfor­ tunate exceptions--tlie unprecedented cold weather, bad roads and prevailing epidemics of course in some measure interfered with the progress of the schools. Our merchants are prospering. R«g«rs, of Volo, Is still a favorite with many of the store going public, Alex Tweed, of Monaville,1s prepar­ ing to do a large business in egg pick- Hug.
