1TCXTINGTOX, ITTD. Local Miscellaneous Items. Get ness. your Christmas gifts in readi The marriage boom seems to be easing up just a little. The quail eater, George Aultman, is tearing the birds to pieces at a fearful rate.

The gravel roads are the means that bring trade to a town, such as our merchants enjoyed last Saturday. Messrs. Ken nek and Hatfield, of the Third "Ward, have materially improved their premises by the erection of new buildings. A ship canal without water suffi cient to float a scow would not be a success, any more than was the old canal without water. Signing petitions, simply, do not build railroads or snip canals.

it re auireszood wilL energy and lots of hard cash to carry fo rward great enterprises. 1 On Monday last the U. S. Express ceased to carry good3 on the Wabash railway, and the Wabash, St Louis and Pacific Express takes its place. Ho change has as yet taken place in the office in this city.

We understand that Mr. Anthony Emley. of Clearcreek township, has purchased the "Kopp" block on Mar ket street, and that ne and nis son Malcom, will shortly open a stock of groceries in the building. It is altogether probable that in con sequence of the recent change of Ex press Companies, the cost of express packages in the future will be increased that is, upon packages from other roads. The more changes, the greater the charges.

TnE Patterson's, of Wayne township, is a good family to avoid having a fuss with. There are five boys in the family whose united height is a trifle over 31 feet, and their weight exceeds 1.060 pounds. The county Coroner is one of this number. I The idea of a respective newspaper saying that Sam. Hench, of Ft.

Wayne, "has not an equal as a prosecutor in criminal cases the ktatel With a newspaper talking thus, and Sam. Hench as the special champion of the Grubbs libel law, what in thunder is the world coming to, any how John T. Alexander's new house is nearly completed inside and is en tirely nmshea ana painted, on the ex terior. The house is, in. our opinion, one of the handsomest and neatest in the city, and is a great improvement to North Jefferson street, which is already noted for handsome dwellings and elegant yards.

Mr. Jas. M. Hatfield has just completed a handsome barn on his proper ty, in the Third Ward. During the present winter a cow will be the sole occupant of the structure, but Jim sees in tne inture, or nopes to see, a splendid pair of mouse colored step pers standing in the stalls, aid an im proved Dexter wagon in the part erected for the accommodation of a carriage.

Sister Sary Ann, of the Warren News, is disgusted and mad because the Herald published a just and merited tribute to the memory of the late Senator Chandler, of Michigan. It is too late to remedy the mistake now, but in the future, before com mitting a similar mistake, we will en deavor to consult Lee or the other fool, who seems to be his apologist and champion. The Herald office has just manu factured a lot of writing tablets of dif ferent sizes, made out of print paper of convenient sizes, which will be sold at prices far below those usually asked for such articles. They are so made that each sheet will tear off clean, and are far ahead of the perfoj I rated tablets. Teachers, lawyers and business men will find them a very useful article to have around.

several persons in this city are negotiating with ProL Pike, the scientific lecturer who delighted our citizens a few years, for a course of five lectures, to be delivered some time dur ing the month of February. The Pro fessor baa prepared an entirely new series of lectures, which are being received with delight in every city where they are delivered, and we trust the project to have him come to this city will receive the ncouragement of all our people. THE INDIANA HERALD WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1879. The Pastor's social will be held at the Presbyterian church Friday even ing, December 5th, 1879. All are cor dially invited to attend.

The Huntington Township Teach ers institute win meet at tne uourx House Saturday. Dec 13th. 9 0 A. M. A full attendance is expected, There was not much of.a boom in behalf of the ship canal on Saturday last.

A majority of our people seem to resrard the scheme as wild and visionary. We regret to learn that our old and valued friend. John i W. Smith, of Kockcreek, has been suffering from an attack of lune fever. A host of warm friends will rejoice at his early Mrs.

Lotta D. Crosly will preach at the Court House on Saturday even ine. December 6th. at 7 clock p. m.

Also on Sabbath, December 7th, morn ing and evening. A general invitation is extended. Calvert. Buggies lisher are doing a lively business in the hog trade. On last Friday and Saturday they ship ped fourteen car load3 of porkers.

They are all pleasant gentleman, and we are glad to note their success. i The Herald had a representative at the Grant reception in Chicago, but he is partial to a third term, and hence is not amenable to the charge of having been drunk. It is in order for the editor of the Huntington Democrat to arise and "define his As a recompense for his cut foot, Theodore VanAntwerp was presented by his amiable wife with a son and heir, on last Sunday, The young gen tleman is a healthy specimen, fully up to the regulation weight, and has already been appointed deputy postmast er. Grandma Van.1 wears her new honors with becoming dignity, The romping, rolicking young lady of the Warren News a graduate of one of the leading female institutions of the country, actually so far forgets herself as to employ the phrase of a blackguard and outlaw who out" in this place years ago, and terms the senior of the Herald a "figure head." This phrase was applied to us at least twenty years ago, ana it is unbecoming a dignified, fash ionable lady to revive It now. We shall take immediate steps to inform Prof.

I Lee" of the improper conduct of his pupil. It is related of T. Stewart, that he once came to the conclusion that although advertising was a good thing it was of no great benefit to him, as his name sold hi3 goods. To test it, one department only of his establish ment was advertised. Its business overtopped that of; all the others so immediately and sq largely that Mr.

S. concluded that to get the full power of his name it must appear in printer's ink. His advertising manager Bays, from that time he advertised more than ever in the daily papers. A i number of the, business men of Hunt ington should Mr. Stewart.

follow the example of Some person in this city passed a i piece of paper porporting to be a five dollar bill of the Gem City Business College, of Quincy, 111., that is good in the banking department of that insti tution upon Franklin Cable, who lives on the farm or. John o. liest, for a genuine bill. It resembled the latter only in having a green face and the denomination of the bill marked in the corner, and we are surprised that any person would receive it as money; but Mr. informed us that it was given to him with a number of other bills, and as he was never fortunate enough to be the possessor of many five dollar notes, he did not notice the money carefully, and was an easy victim.

As he sold produce to several different parties ana received tnereror a num I ber of bills, he does not recollect who gave him the "snide," and will be just a out in consequence. Persons addressing communications to this paper are prayerfully urged not to employ the stereotyped phrase: "Allow me space in your paper," We labor to make our paper and have abundant evidence every week that space is really very valuable. Hence we need no argument on that subject If correspondents have anything to com municate that is of real, practical ad vantage to the world, let them get right down to Ordinarily.no preface or apology is necessary. What we want and what the world wants these aays, is gooa, nara sense, expressed in as few words as possible. Life is short and time is fleeting, and he who would act wisely and accomplish much good, must do it with as little ceremony as possible, we desire especially to im press this fad tipon the mind of every one whe writes for this paper.
