Brownsville, Aug. 23th, 1S76.
Ed. Register : Farmers in this section
of the country are now very busily en
gaged in threshing, and news is very
scarce. The town at present is very dull,
nobody being actively engaged in business
except the blacksmiths. j
It is rumored that two young gentlemen,
Kearney Cooly and Bill' Fieltls, were play
ing with a shot-gun yesterday, when it was
discharged, and the contents lodged in
Billy Fields' shoulder, and th;rt the services
ot the surgeon are in demand this morn
ing to pick out the shot. Such is life. This
moment we know what we are, but we do
not know what we may be the next.
Jasper Jack, a very estimable young
man, who for a long time had been suffer
ing from that dread disease! consumption.
passed quietly away on the ;20th inst.. and
his spirit, having passed on to that "bourne
from which no traveller e'er returns, " is
now resting in the " land of the leal "
where pain and suHeringare feltand ieared
no more, while his mortal remains peace
fully repose in the home of the dead,
awaiting the trumpet's last sound. May
his relatives, who survive, all so live that
their last end may be like his ; aud, when
the Angel of Death comes to them, may
he be welcomed as a messenger of glad tid
ings and as a spirit sent to bear them to a
'liome of rest beyond the skies."
I see that the last issue of the Democrat,
with its "mulatto figure-heads" at the top
of its columns, "goes" for "Brick" Pome-
rov. He was a srood fellow as long as he
swallowed the Democratic hog. but as soon
as it sours on his stomach he is a villain
and a scoundrel, according to Democratic
authority. Democrats believe in ' free
thought, free speech and a fiee press," just
so long as one thinks, speaks and writes
to suit their tastes ; but whenever a man,
and especially a Democrat, undertakes to
think, speak or write accordiug to his own
ideas of right and wrong, and fails to act-
in accordance with the commands of tle
Democratic nabobs and grand moguls, then
the free press must be muzzled, free speech
must be stopped, and free thought becomes
a nuisance.
There was a mat in Kentucky (a Demo
crat, of course), who wanted to erect a
sawmill In which there should be two saws,
both to commence sawing at the same time.
in the same log, but on opposite ends and
saw towards each other, lie presented his
plan to a millwright, who, after examin
ing it, asked him wliat he thought would
be the result In case the saws should meet
in the middle of the log. "Indeed,1' the
man replied, "I never .thought of that."
The millwright told him such a mill was
Impracticable, and that he considered him
a "big fool." The Democrats are very
much like the msn who wanted the tnill
with the two saws. They"' have placed
Gov. Tilden on one end of their ticket, saw
ing with hard money, and Gov. Hendricks
at the other end, sawing with soft money,
and have started them toward each other,
without stopping to inquire what Will be
the result when they meet.
At the next election the people will say
to them, as did the millwright to the man
who wanted him to build the mill, you are
"big fools, it won't work."
Yours truly, O. R. Egon.
PEORIA ITEM.
Perhaps a few items from- this part of
the county may interest some of your
readers.
The Government snag-boat . has been at
work on the east channel, and has cleared
all the snagu out, which will be a great ad
Vantage to the grain producers in this com-
rmmity.
I have visited some of the hop-yards of
this and Benton coiuity. Mr. John McCoy
has ten acres In hops, which will yield fif
teen hundred pounds to the acre. This is
Mr. Mc's second year in the business. Last
year his crop didn'tamonnt to mueh.but he
don't feel discouraged. He is very busy at
present, preparing to dry his erop. lie
has built a dry-house 40x40 feet, with two
larse furnaces. He navs 30 cents a box
for picking. An average picker can pick
five boxes a day, which is very fair wages
these hard times.
Hon. I. X. Smith and Andrew Palmer,
of Benton comity, have twenty acres ni
hops, which is about as good as -Mr. Mc
Coy's, although the late raise in the river
was a great hindrance to them in culti
vating. -
Harvesting is very late this season, autl
the crops liglrt,
Hayes aud Wheeler are the only men
spoken of for President and Vice Presi
dent ; there are no Tilden men here, or
they are ahatned to own it. ' A.. Y. S."
The New Minister. The pastor of the
M. E. Church of this city during the past
year. Rev. S. S. Van Dersal, was, by the
late M. E. Annual Conference, sent to
Forest Arover while Rev. J. F. DeVore
was assigned to the Albany charge. We
part with brother Van Dersal with regret,
as he is not only an able minister of the
Go'pel, but a faithful one, and, during his
stay among us, has won the fullest esteem
of this people. We wish him. in his new
field of labor, a more profitable and pleas-
anter year than his most sanguine antici
pations may lead him to anticipate. Rev.
J. F. DeVore is a most successful minis
ter, a gentleman of high culture and most
liberal attainments, and the Methodist so
ciety of this city feel most fortunate in
having been so greatly tavored in his ap
pointment. We welcome brother DeVore
aud family to his new home among us.
