South west Sixth street is the centre of attraction for our gentlemen friends. Eight lady visitors being the cause.

Explanatory. MESSES As it appears that our article in your last paper haa impressed eome differently from what we meant, and erroneously, it ia only fair to them and-to the writer that wrong impressions be corrected by an explanation. Nothing personal was intended; we did not in a single instance know who was there en that occasion. There was no design to even hint the use or influence of strong and we only aimed to make the point, that if intoxicated persons are not allowed to be BO.iay and disturbing why should sober persons 1 We believe those young men were sober. And very much further was it from the intent of that article to attach the idea of immorality in conduct or purpose to any one there that night, there being not 60 much a.

ghost ot a reason, to our knowledge, for so doing. Throughout our article and in the closing paragraph we only meanl this, that, taking into consideration the act itself of night dancing in the woods, together with its peculiar fascinations, the freedom of the time and place and the probable lack of restraining influences, the tendencies are that it will be carried on to an inordinate degree, and also that others, and much younger folks may follow the example to such an extent and frequency that thi method of social enjoyment will become ser iously objectionable and injurious. On young friends will doubtless differ from ou views on this point; nevertheless it ia on opinion, and it is not unlikely that the timi come, when they will agree with us The tone of our communication may hav been somewhat caustic, but could it hav been otherwise when written under the in fluenee of feelings agitated by personal knowledge of the fact that much of the noise of that evening's doings and hilarity reached, and was unpleasantly amidst the deathbed sufferings and solemnities that existed at that time in the house of its author OSE OF THEM. FiiOM the catalogue of the Indiana Normal School for 1879-80 we learn that the nnmbcr'students last term was 271; in the Model School 104, making the total 375.

Donaldson, D. has sent forth hundreds of brilliant it continues to rank high in the estimation of all qualified to judge of what an educational institution of this character should be' The moral progress of students there is looked alter as carefully and as lovingly as any parent could wish or desire. THE anxiety of the Greenback and Democrat leaders to fuse bids fair to breed trouble in a large number of districts of this State.

Attempts of unsympathetic factions of the "outs" to combine merely for the purpose of ousting the "ins" are not always Pittiinirgh'Diipiitch. They have fused in this district, but we are not anticipating serious trouble. SUGAE are going up in ry grades having advanced from one to two cents within a few days. The cause of this sudden advance seems to be a combination of refiners, who have forced the commodity greatly beyond its true value. Unless the demand falls off greatly the adyance will likely be firm, and at this season of the year there is little probability of a decline in the demand.

Letter from New Mexico. Ai.BCQrjEKO.TrE, New Mexico, "1 June 20, 1880. MESSES. will doubtless be surprised to receive a fchort communication from this Mexican town, and written by one of the "boys" late from your midst. lam no reporter or anjthing of that kind, but I will relate a few facts in my own simple way.

In company with my friend, J. H. Geed, I left Topeka, Kansas, May 21. We passed throughout the entire State of Kansas and had a good look at its waving grain in the east and its barren plains in the west. The crops in the eastern part are fair, and those in the western part look to be failure.

Neither grain or grass to be seen, everything burnt up. Many of the people were suffering and cattle were dying for grass and water; but I leam they have had good rains within tbe past few weeks. We see land agents' circulars stating what fine crops are raised in Webtem Kansas and Colorado. They say nothing of tha many failures that haye been in that part. Many of the farmers have come to the frent to work for the construction department of the T.

B. Co. The stocK in Colorado and New Mexico have suffered very much on account of drouth. The most of the herds have beea driven to the river valleys and foothills of the mountains. I have heard great stories of sheep-raising in New and it some of our sheep raisers of Indiana county were here and saw a flock of Mexican sheep they arid be excusable if tier did.

There was a sheep raiser told me last evening that many of the sheep here did not average one pound of wool per head at a shearing. If they were in a cold climate they would not grow enough wool to keep them from mean the sheep. I have seen many sheep here that could not make a the sun was hid by clouds. I shall have to cease talking "sheep" and tell you something of Albuquerque. It is situated among the sand- THE specimen of penmanship by Prof.

W. C. Sandy sent out with the current THB National comes closer to the i catalogue of the Indiana Normal School, is ,.,1. .,.,,.1 piece of work. His penman- bip is not only unexcelled but as a coramer- ial accountant he has no superior.

He has truth than usual when it says "The Progress is not the official organ of the Republican party; it is only the officious." JUDGE SUTTON arid other fat men, took much comfort out of yesterday's weather. the -weather clerk, accidentally, does tbe tight thing occasionally. LOCAL accidents by flood and field are scarce this week. Neither the reaper nor the threshing machine this far have given occasion for comment. And it is well.

FOB indulging in profanity the other day, one of our justices mulcted a party brought before him in the eum of $10. Swear not it all. It is neither moral, nice, nor profitable. PoNKsBTAWJf EY is going to have an Agricultural Society. Sufficient ground has been secured, and the stockholders talk of having a half mile trick on which to exhibit fast, or what may be thought fasts horses, DR.

TANNER, the gentleman who haa undertaken to fast for forty dajs in New York, has only eleven days left. He has lost 28 pounds, and the physicians who arc watching him seem to think he will succeed in his undertaking. THB house of Lizzie Wyacoop, near Georgevilte, was struck by lightning last Wednesday, but no serious damage resulted The same evening the house of Eobt.

THE newly erected Presbyterian Church at Plum Creek, Nebraska, was dedicated on the llth of July with approbate services, the Pastor being assisted by he Eev. George L. Little, Synodical Missionary, and the Bev. A. S.

Loder. of St. Nebraska. The building is of gothic style, 36 by 50 feet, and will seat 350 persons, and was erected at a cotf of 52,200, of which amount the Board of Church erection contributes $700. Tbe church wa3 dedicated free of debt, and the pastor, Bev.

D. M. Hazlett, eon of J. L. Hazlett, of this place, feels much encouraged in his work.

IP ASY of the hundreds of young lady readers of the MESEEKOER wish to know hcv to make their crimps slay in damp.we«ther, let then read and practice the following To crimp hair take a little gam-arable and put it into just enough boiling water to dissolve it. When dis- lved add enough alcohol to make it somewhat thin. Let this stand all night, and then bottle it to prevent tbe alcohol from evaporating. When wishing to "do" the hair for the night, damp it with this mixture, and the restilt will be, next day, stiffly crimped or curled hair, which will not "come out" on damp or hot days, as is usual with hair crimped or curled in the ordinary manner. THB Herdic Personal Transportation Company of Philadelphia is preparing to build of Peter Herdic's new horseflesh saving coaches for use on the streets ot that city.

The coach is a queer looking affair, with immense wheels and long, low body, almost touching the ground. The vehjcle len feet long, eight feet high, and four feet and tep ipplies wide, The front wheels are five feet the bock Wheels are thrge and a half feet. It is claimed that one horge attached to' the coach can easily trot away with fourteen full-grown paasengerp, though eight is set down a "load;" Peter Herdic is not the originator of the big wheel idea by a long sight. Dr. Anderson, of this place, may rightfully claim that distinction, having had built some years ago a buck-board with five six foot whetter' hills of the Rio Grande river, and is built of mud.

The A. T. S. F. B.

E. passes within 1J miles of it, and there is a new town started at it, consisting, now of near twenty buildingp, used, principally, as saloons, dance and gambling rooms. There are a few places that a man can get mealt, but no place to sleep. If a man has a pair of blankets he ia happy. I have seen men sleeping on board on porches and even oa the ground.

Tcere is little danger of taking cold here, atmosphere is so dry. It seldom ever rains at this season of the year. There are quite a number of whites in old Albuquerque now, but I am told that before the rail road was built there were bat few and those Jews. There are a great many Indians of the Pueblo tribe in this place; but they are peaceable and, I think, more industrious than the majority of the Mexicans. I took a tour to the front last week and had a good view of the Bio Grande for fifty feiles.

It is settled all that distance by Mexicans and Indians. They have the whole valley irrigated, and they raise wheat and corn, besides grass for their cattle. The railroads are all that give any life to this country. There are rich mines here but no water to work them. There are many places where they haul the water from 30 to 40 miles to the camps.

Railroad men can generally get water, as they follow the streams. There are two roads being constructed from this poin toward the Pacific, and there is eome talk of one being built from some point in Mexico to connect with one of these roads. Thus, there ia a great demand for men but wages are low and board high; and when a man gets here it costs quite a sum to return. The fare from here to Kansas City here 10 cents per mile. There are many interesting points along the line of road which I might speak of, but I have imposed on good nature.

Yon may hear from me again. The -Bent brill Vet. Oar farmer friends need not go astray in their search for Grain are numerous and those who sell them are not few in number. Yet, after all, what the progressive farmer wants, is the BEST drill. A drill that phangcs quantity without change of gear wheels 'that figs front lift bar, whereby the hoes can be raised, either riding or walking that has removable force feed grass seeder; that has removable force feed fertilize: that has low hitch, completely taking weight off the horses' necks that has the BEST spring hoe, and has the lightest draft ia a machine that combines all the essential points.

Such a Drill is the ''Sichmond Champion Grain Drill," manufactured at Bichmond, Indiana. It hiB stood the severest teats, and in competition with other Drills has UNIVERSALLY TAKES THE LEAD. The intelligent farmer who sees it and examines it, in every particular, is the man who always says, the "Jlichmend" it the best, and it suits m.e It adapts itself to all grades and to all kinds of ground. It is perfection. The manufacturers and those Who sell, simply ask an If it Wonderful Cores.

Bev. F. W. Buehholz, Waseca, used the St. Jacobs Oil in the case of alady of his congregation who had been beJ-rid- den with Kheumatism for seventeen years.

She used the St. Jacoba.Oil for three days, and was able to leave her bed. Mr. B. Schaffer, No.

31 Brown street, Allegheny City, had the Bheumatism for eight years, and had used every known medicine without relief. A single bottle of St. Jacobs OU cured him. Gustar A. Hellman, Editor of Pittsburgh Sadly Sepublican, suffered Tith Rheumatism far two years, and lay many a night unable to sleep on account of terrible pains.

Two bottles of St. Jacobs Oil cured him. Mr. F. Wilke, Lafayette, reports a case where a man sufi'ered so badly with Rheumatism that he could not move.

His legs were swollen, and he had the most terrible pains. Twelve hours after the first application of the St. Jacobs Oil the pains were gone and tbe swelling had disappeared. Mr. Henry Shaffer, MUIersburg, cured of Bheumatism in the hips.

Mr, F. K. IFitt, Cleveland, Ohio, Eheu- matism in the leg. Cured after three applications. Mr.

On the 22d day of July, 1880, at hia resi- ence in Indiana, of paralysis, Mr. ohn Adair, formerly of White aged 81 ears, 9 months and 13 days. He was identified with the early history nd hardships incident to the settlement of iia county.

He was a man of careful bus- habits, and in his intercourse with eighbors friends unassuming, honest and man who all that knew ilaced the EioU implicit confidence in. He cheerfully gave of the fruhs of his labor assistance in the education for the minis- ry two sons, both of whom are to-day proclaiming the truths of the Gospel and the riches of Christ, and one of whom (Bev. J. M. Adair,) was enabled to spend a fortnight ministering at the bedside of the old father in Israel who has called to join the gnat throng on the other shore.

For long years the subject of this notice was united with the cburch of Christ, and sat under the ministrations of Father Blair and those who succeeded him in the pulpit. At the outbreak of the rebellion he cheerfully sent two of his fight for freedom and the Union. Although his love for these two sons was very great, he hesitated not a moment in sending them forth to incur the perils of One gave up his life in battle, and his grave is marked with, those saddest of words man kiioweth of his sepulchre to this day." He filled his fourscore years, living beyond the Psalmist's allotted time, and has been slathered home "as a shock of corn in hia season fully ripe." He was married Nov. 2, 1826, to Miss Maria McCleery, of Adams county, this State, and all the years of their lives passed a more than ordinarily happy union. The partner of his youth and old age survives him, after a blessed married life of over fifty years, and in her bereavement by the death of her beloved husband she has the sympathy of friends and neighbors, and the prayers of all, that in her loneliness and distress He upon whom she has so long leaned will strengthen her spirit ExpHclt Enough.

One of our young men whose linen is nearly always immaculate, in response to many inquiries aa to how he manages to have it that way, hands us the following recipe. It requires some care and extra trouble, but the result will justify the labor: Wash shirts, cuffs, and collars in ordinary way.

How to make the the starch with a little cold water, then add enough boiling water to make a thin paste. Add a piece of wax, (Japanese wax,) the size of hickory nut. How to starch the starch tbe bosom on the wrong side, rubbing it in well; then wring out and starch on the right side; then starch again on the wrong side; the same with the wrist bands and neck band. How to starch collars and eame as shirts, then dry and starch a second time. Before ironing, take a table teaspoonful of starch and about one quart of water, mix well and dampen the shirts, cuffs and collars in it; let them lie about one hour, then iron.

How to the wristbands first with the polishing iron; then iron the sleeves and then the neckband with ordinary iron. When ironing the neckband, iron in crescent shape, not fiat. Iron the neck band until perfectly dry with the polishing iron, then iron tbe yoke, then the back of shirt with ordinary iron then the front and put on the ironing board; stand tbe neck-band straight up and stretch the bosom wall, turn the tail of the shirt up. Iron over the bosom just enough to dry it a little, then iron it perfectly dry with ordinary iron, flow to the hand board up under the bosom; take a small piece of cloth and dampen the bosom all over, then rub with the polishing iron, taking care to use the point of the iron, do not hare too hot, and always polish Tip and down the bosom.
