The Germantown Republican thus describes the hard lot of the country editor: "He riseth in the morning and knoweth not what a day may bring forth. If he telleth all the news he runneth a great risk of haying a tin ear put on him, and if he telleth not the news the people say he is n. g., and there is no joy in it. The crafty man ca,joleth him into giving him a 50 cent puff for a 5 cent cigar, and fond mothers frown on hint if he fails to flat- ter their freckled -faced broods. And all his ways are ways of woe, and his days aro full of sorrow. The life in- surance man settetlr snares for him,and on the whole he has a deuce of a time." Once upon a time a certain man got mad with the editor and stopped' his paper. The next week he sold his corn at four cents below the market price. Then his property was sold for taxes because he didn't read the sheriff's sale. He was -arrested and fined eight dollars for hunting on Sunday simply because he did not know it was Sunday, and he paid three dollars for a lot of forged notes that had been advertised for two weeks; and the public cautioned not to negotiate them. He then paid a big Irishman, with a foot like a forge -ham- mer, to kick him all the way to the newspaper office, where he paid four years subscription in advance and had the editor sign an agreement to knock him down and rob him if he ever or- dered his paper stopped again. I have much pleasure in certifying to the pleasure given at the concert last night in our church, by the whis- tling of Miss McManis of Indianapolis, the accompaniments being played by her sister. It was like the warbliugs of a song -bird. The Large audience present were both amazed captivated. In addition to the cultured whistling power of Miss McManis, her manner on the platform is also greatly in her fav- or. Our Concert was a success in every way,and I have no hesitation in recom- mending the Misses McMauis to any Church Committee who may wish to offer to the public a unique and pleas- ing. entertainment, (signed) Isaac Tovell, Pastor St. Paul St Meth.

Saturday last::was really the inaug- uration of the batter and egg market, although Saturday 10th inst., was an- nounced as the day of the opening, but on account of the very disagreeable weather, neither sellers or buy ers were present. There was a large quantity of produce brought there for sale and the prices realized were in =try cases i l �'ti p. •fid a great cleat ugher than'ha.s�'b�e heretofore, We hope to see a great many more of the farmers take advan- tage of the market, and secure the cash for their produce, and higher prices than paid in small country towns. One trial will convince. To Wlnonn it may Concern. I have much pleasure in commend ing Miss Laura McMannis, the Whis- tling Soloist, to any association provid- ing popular entertainments.
