Lovers of ice-cream, soda and accom panying etceteras, and who is there who does not lore these delicacies, will rejoice to learn that a first-class ice-cream saloon has been established in our midst Mr. and Mrs. Hounson have just fitted up the building, directly opposite the Postoffice, in a neat and tasty manner, for the accommodation of guests. They will keep constantly on hand ice cream, soda, strawberries, and in abort, all the delicacies .of the season. We trust the enterprise may be sustained. Destructive Conflagration-. Again are we called upon to record anothor sad calamity that has befallen our village. A destruc tive fire broke out on Sunday morning last, about half past one o'clock, in the basket factory of Jones A Co., and in an incredible short space of time, it together with its contents, was a heap of smouldering ruins. From this building the fire quickly communicated to the Central House barn, which side, and the engine bouse on the other, these were also destroyed, together with the out buildings attached to the barn, and the hay, oats, Ac, in the barn. A small building used as a bakery, immediately south of the engine house was also burned. To the north of the barn and adjoining the meat market of Dickinson A Sanders, was a large two story building owned by S. Gantt, which was partly burned and partly pulled -down. Here the fire was arrested, though the meat market was considerably damaged, and how it was saved is certainly a miracle, but all agree that it was through the energetic and persevering efforts of the firemen and citizens. Had it not been that there was scarcely any wind at the time, a much greater amount of damage must have been done. As it was, the post office building, Sprague A Hawks' store and Lyle's store Loose adjoining bis harness shop, were at one time in great danger, as their blackened sides adjoining the burnt district fully attests. The engine company were promptly on the ground, and worked like heroes throughout, as was the case with the citizens generally, especially the ladies, who rendered every assistance in their power, often taking the lead in carrying water and removing goods from the burning buildings, while strong men stood by looking calmly on. They are entitled to all praise. At the time the flames communicated to Mr. Gantt's building, it was found necessary to change the engine, in consequence of the water in the reservoir giving out. Had it not been for this, or tad they been in possession of 100 feet more hose, Mr. O.'a building would undoubtedly bare been eared. As it was they did nobly, and the only wonder is, how they could have accomplished so much under the circumstances. It is impossible to ascertain definitely the loss each one sustained. None of the property des troyed, we believe, was insured. Jones A Co.'s loss ia set down at (3,000, and it falls with a crush ing weight upon them. Not only was their machinery destroyed, but they had on hand nearly their entire stock manufactured the past winter, nd what was embarked in the enterprise was their U- Mr. Hubbard's loss of bar. oats. Ac, was mall. Mr. Gantt's loss is probably $500. The engine house a temporary building, erected for the vse of the engine, was worth perhaps $100. The damage done Messrs. Dickinson A Sanders is light. The Central House barn was owned by Daridson Gardner, of this County, and a gentleman in New York. We do pot know its value. We cannot close this account of a misfortune thst will be severely felt by or Tillage, without expressing the sentiments of nine-tenths of those who witnessed the late fire, that we are not suf ficiently protected from this derastating element liVhai we most need in addition to our engine, is a Hook and Ladder carriage with apparatus com. plete. Had we been in possession of such an apparatus much valuable property would hare been saved, both at the late fire and when the Union School bouse was burned. There ought also to be purchased immediately at least SOO feet more hose for the engine, and that ought to be of far better quality than the apology for hoa now in possession tt the company, which would render the engine j far more effective, and possibly be the means of airing much raluable property. Wo mk these' suggestions to the Board of Trustees hoping thy will take the matter i once- Thk Cass Co. Guards. On Monday last, thia fine company of soldiers, which it was the wish of every loyal citizen of Cass County to see go Into one of the Michigan Regiment, left this Tillage for Berrien, on their way to Chicago, to take their place in a regiment now being raised in that city, under the name of " The Douglas Bri gade," Although quite early in the morning when they started, they having to go to" Berrien in wagons, quite a large crowd assembled to bid them good bye. The volunteers shook hands with their friends and took their seats in the wagons. They were cheerful and hopeful, and did not seem to regret the step they had taken. As we hare before stated, this company was one of the first organized in the State, and until the final order of Gor. Blair that there was no chance for them to be mustered into serrice at present, they were indefatigable in placing themselres upon a com plete war footing. When they became convinced that no opportunity would be offered for them to fight under the banner of their own State, they applied for admission into, the Douglas Brigade and were accepted, and with many heartfelt prayers and God speeds,' they went From the ardor with which they have entered into this work from the beginning,' and the fact thst they hare only taken new courage from erery disappointment, we are satisfied that they are destined to fill no secondary part in this struggle for freedom. Since the abore was in type, we hare received the Chicago Tribun of Wednesday, which has the following in regard to the boys. We hare also been informed by Mr. Denman who was in Chicago on Tuesday, that the company was not full, and that one of the officers would return in a few days for the purpose of enlisting more men. All who wish to go into active service immediately can avail themselves of this opportunity. The following is the item alluded to : A new regiment is being formed, called the Douglas Brigade. On the propeller Lady Franklin, from St Joseph, Michigan, there arrived in this city yejterday two fine volunteer companies from Michigan. These are the Cass County Guards, of Dowagiac, Capt D. M. McOmber commanding, and the St. Joseph Volunteers, Capt J. M. Get man. These are to join the Douglas Brigade, or some other new regiment, and all they ask itt active service. They are a fine looking corps, and will do credit to the 'Peninsular State. They are for the present in quarters in McCormick's Building on the corner of Dearborn and Randolph streets. TnE Fourth. The approaching anniversary of our Nation's Indepencence will soon be upon us. Is it not time that we were agitating the subject of properly celebrating the event by an unlimited out-pouring of patriotic devotion ? If there ever was a time when the day should be duly observed, that time is the present We know that each of our citizens feels this, and that it is only . necessary for some person to start the thing and all will join with a will. In other towns and cities, arrangements arc already being made, and if we are to have a celebration we must move in the matter at once, or it will be too late to accomplish anything. We have not indulged in a good old-fashioned celebration for years, and we propose that we have, this year, a rousing demon stration. What say ou citizens? Shall not preparations be made immediately fur an old fashioned, soul-stirring, traitor-defying, and treason-denouncing celebration of the day made im mortal by the hallowed memories clustering around it Base Ball. An interesting matcJi game of base ball was played in this village on Tuesday last, between the Park Club, of Kalama zoo, and the Dowagiac Club, of this place, in which the Dowagiac boys were badly beateu. A lare number of persons were present to witness the playing, which added much interest to the game. During the time of the game, the wind was almost too high for ball play, aDd a heavy shower of rain about four o'clock nearly spoiled the sport The Park Club is composed of fine looking men, mostly business men of Kalamazoo, and their playing would do honor to older and more experienced players. After the match, the Dowagiac Club entertaiend their guests at Mrs. Bannard's, " Rochester House," where a bountiful table was spread, to which ample justice was done, and every thing passed off in the most agreeable manner. A return game will be played in Kalamazoo some time during the season, when we hope to be able to speak in more flattering terms of our own Club. Michigan and the War. Though the part Michigan has played and is still to play in the existing war, is not on quite so extensive a scale as some of the larger or border States, there is no reason to doubt that it is to be fully as honorable, and in proportion to the force she sends into the field, fully as prominent. As yet we have but one regiment at the seat of war, bat that regiment has already reflected the highest credit on the State, and rendered the mostdistinguished service to the. Government, by their gallant conduct, their soldierly bearing, and their orderly conduct. While the press of New l ork, I'enn sylvania, Ohio, Illinois, and many other States, are filled with the complaints of their volunteers, not a word has ever been heard from our noble First, of hard treatment, mean food, poor uni form, or anything else. If they do not fare quite as luxuriously in the camp or on the held as in their own homes, we hear no grumbling from any of them, either in the public papers or private letters. Like brave men and patriotic citizens, they made up their minds be fore they volunteered in defense of the glorious old flag of their country, to submit to all the duties and hardships of a soldier s life, however severe with out a murmur. They understood that they were bound on no holiday excur sion, and that the stern realities of war were no child's play. They volunteered simply to fight the rebels conspiring to overthrow the Government out of pure lqve for their country. -But it is due to truth to say that ow ingto the wise precaution and foresight of the Governor and other &tate au- horities, as well as the patriotic liber ality of the citizens, our First Regi ment have had less cause for complaint than some of the volunteers from other States. When they received orders to march for Washington, they were fully prepared for a campaign. Not only were they well armed and equipped, and provided with substantial and suit able uniforms, but they were also sup plied with numberless little comforts designed to, lessen the deprivations in cident to a soldier's life. Everything was done, and done promptly and lib erally both by the public authorities and private citizens to make their con dition as tolerable as it W3S possible, and to prepare them .for effective sol diers. They have appreciated those efforts, and for this reason, as well as from a determination to do their fall share towards preserving the Union, they are reflecting honor upon the State as well as upon themselves. To-day another Michigan Regiment, the Second, starts for the seat of war, to be followed at an early day by the Third and Fourth, all to rendezvous at Washington, soon to take an active part in the great struggle for national existence. That it will be the ambition of these regiments to imitate the con duct of the First, in future career, we should be unwilling to doubt. We be lieve they will each strive to rival the other in soldierly bearing, in courage, in obedience to every order, and in pati tient submission to their fortune. By this patriotic course they will, like the First, reflect credit npon themselves and the State, and contribute their full share to the glorious work of crushing out the present foul conspiracy, and re-establishing the Government on a more per manent basis than ever. Michigan ex pects this from her citizen-soldiers, and wo aro confident she will not be disap pointed. Det. Adv. Dowagiac Prices Current coaaiCTiD wnitr. Republic Ornca, ) JunelS , 1861.
