Whiting, to Miss Freonla Buck, of Johnson, Vt, Mr. Whiting has for the past two years been engaged In the Factory of W. A. Crlsty, In this village, and has host of friends here who will wish him mneh Joy In his "new departure." AN exchange says: "Robert Burns Wilson, the poet, gets his inspiration by sitting beside a Kentucky rill.** The last word is evidently a typo­ graphical error. A Kentucky still Is what is meant, and it la now under­ stood what makes Bob slog so long and so lugubriously. IN the Breeder* Oaeette, of Dec, 86, we find Registered under the bead of 2:S0 horses, the name of "George O," owned by George W. Owen, in this village. This horse will be put in first class hands next spring and we predict that before the season is over he will show a record that his owner will have to feel proud of, body of William Snow, who was killed In Chicago, a notioe of which we gave last week, was brought here on Tuesday evening and the funer al was held at the residence of Jos. Fltzsimmons on Thursday morning, aad his remains taken to Wauconda for iutermvuk. He was killed by be­ ing run over by a train in the Railroad yards, at Chicago. THIS IS the aggravating kind of eon-, solation that a subscriber writes to an editor : Well, many happy returns of the season; and if the egg that was going to hatch your ChriBtmas turkey got kicked out of the nest, and a sweet young life perished in the "bomin," don't look moody and go on a hard cider drunk, but brace up en a ten cent, soup bone, and make yourself believe that when next Christmas oomes yon' will feed on the fat of the land. Marengo Republican says: "Fred A. Patrick bas just closed a trade with the Metropolitan Bank of Chicago, whereby he becomes the pur­ chaser of their entire interests in their factories in this vicinity. This gives him the ownership of seven, and the controlling i a teres t in four others of the leading factories. This arrange­ ment will, we think, prove very satie- factory to the patrons, as the system of prompt payments and large bonds, giving absolute security, will be con­ tinued, although other changes In the form of management will probably be Jnade which wilt undoubtedly greatly please the farmers, of which more W.

SOUTH Carolina is the only state In the Union that has no dlvoroe law. Nothing short ef an earthquake can shake man and wife apart in that state, which probably account* for the fre­ quency with which shakes occur there. Nature is evidently disposed to give discontented couples a chance In spite of the law. WE learn that Woodstock narrowly escaped a serious conflagration on Monday evening last. Smoke was dis­ covered coming through the floor of the Park Hete1, and Investigation being made fire was discovered in the store below, which was extinguished with slight damage. Had It not been Jlscovered just as it waa the whole South side of the Square would have been destroyed. We did not learn the cause of the fire.

DAVID DAVIS tells the frdzea truth when he aays: "Each year every loeal paper gives from 9100 to 96,000 In free lines for the benefit of the community in which it Is located. No other igency can or will do this. The local editor. In proportion to his means, does more for his town than any other ten men, and In all fairness, man with man. he ought to be support­ ed, not becanse you happen to like him or admire his writings, but because a local paper Is the best Investment a oommunlty can make. It may not be brilliant or crowded with great thoughts, but financially It Is fiiore of a benefit to a community than a preacher or teacher. Understand us now, we do not mlan morally or In­ tellectually but financially, and yet on the moral question you will find the majority of the local papers are on the right side of the question. To­ day the editors of local papers do the most work for the least money of any men on earth. Subscribe for your local paper, not as a oharlty, but as an investment.

" •HHI road along whtoh the man of business travels Is not a macadamised one, nor does It ordinarily lead through pleasant soeaes and by a well springs of delight. On the eontrary, it is a rough and rugged path, beset with Mwait-a<bit" thorns, and full of pitfalls, which can only be avoided by the watenful care of circumspec­ tion, After every day's journey over this worse than rough turnpike road the wayfarer needs something more than rest; he requires solace and he deserve* It. He Is weary of the dnll prose of life .and atblrst for the poetry. Happy Is the husband who can find that solac* and that poetry at home. Warm greetings from loving hearts, fond glances from bright eyes, the wolcome shouts of children, the many thousand little arrangements for our eomfort and enjoyment that silently tell of thenghful and expect­ ant love, the gentle ministration that disencumber us into an old and easy seat before we are aware of It; these and like token* of affection and sym pathy eonslftute the poetry which reconsiles us to the prose of life. Think of this, ye wives and daugh­ ters of business men! Think of the tolls, the anxieties, the mortifications and wear that fathers undergo to •*• cure comfortable homes, aod then compensate them for their trials by making them happy by their own firesides.-- Sagwa.

The figuree are thooe of rfoord from Smith, Powell & Lamb. Syracuse, NT. Y., thoroughbred breeders. I am well aware that there la too much one sided feeling and ad­ vocacy oa the part of blooded stock breeder*, extblllng one breed and un­ dervaluing all others, Certainly this ought not ^ be, for there Is a place for each breed that no other can fill so well. And while parties may favor One breed more than another from per­ sonal preference, aad evea mooted Intereet, there le no real high minded manliness In casting slurs, or of under­ valuing the real merits of any and all other breed*. The short-herns have done wonders In this country, but their day of great things Is past as the leadhHf fttot' profitable breed; hence their cash values are reoedlng In prions obtained In slses; which range from 930 to 9100; while other breeds are bringing from 975 to 9600, the latter for a Polled Asgus. And yet the short-horns will remain a val­ uable breed and cannot be thrown oil the market, for they have real merit in some points that are requisite. They have enriched the country by their admirable grading up the "old native breeds." They now. In turn will be Improved by being graded up by Hereford aad Angus sires in the beef direction; while in milking quali­ ties they will be graded up by Hol- steln Freslaa sires. As "beefs" the present opinion tends to the Hereford and Angus as the fnture leaders; the quality being finer and the build smoother, with less percentage of shrinkage at the slaughter houses. In the beef and *<ce market the Jerseys stand nowhere, bat In butter qualities they staad unexcelled, and for richness le quality of milk for household uses they are the pride of the family. But I did not Intend to discuss at length the entire ground, and have new only barely touched upon a few points. Being personally Interested, from preference, aa I financially, In the Hol- steln-Frelstan breed, I herewith give the recorded *figures from Smith, Powell 9 Lamb, for 1886, now In mi possession, I make the following ex- tracts--vis: S4 two-year-olds averaged 12,484 fts. 7oa.

Ooileetor of Munda Township. 28--Im Aalatlo Cholera, What Is known as Asiatic cholera,trom the fact thlt It first appeared In Asia, I* probably the most sever and fatal of all diseases. Epidemice of It have occurred In Asia, particularly In India for several centuries. It was not, how­ ever, till 1817 that the attention of European physicians was specially di­ rected to the disease by the outbreak of a violent epidemic of oholera at Jessore In Bengal. Thla was followed by its rapid spread over a large por tlon of British India, where It* caused Immense destruction of life both among natives and European. In 1823 It had extended Into Asia Minor and Russia In Asia. From this period till 1830 no great extension took place, but In the latter year It appeared In Per­ sia and along the Cespln Sea, and thence entered Russia la Europe. Des­ pite the strictest sanitary percautions, the disease spread rapidly. It ravaged northern and central Europe, and spread onwards to England, appearing In Sunderland In October 1831 and in London January 1833, during which year it continued to prevail in most of the oities and large towns of Great Britain and Ireland. The disease sub­ sequently extendedlato France, Spain aod Italy, and crossing the Atlantic spread through North and Central America. It entered Europe again ia 1847, whenoe It cam® to America, and subsequently appeared in West India. A fourth epldemlo visited Europe In 1866-66, but was less extensive and destructive than iti predecessors. This year it again appeared in;Euiope, and is now raging to an alarming Coughs, Bronchitis Asthma aad sim­ ilar troubles. If suffered to progress, result in serious pulmonary afieotions.
