TRAVELLER'S GUIDE
RAtLltOAbH, Ea«t, I^-ave at 8 55

A
ZiOOAl
IIo i' at the Hop at the Bl rtis
IIorsK.—It has been a long time since we
attended as pleasant a gathering as assem
bled at the liurtis House on Weudnesday
evening to enjoy a tocial dance. The at
tendance was not large, and crinoline did
not suffer to that extent it has at some of
the previous hops. The supper was a per
fect jem in its way, and was enjoyed with
zest by all who paitook of it. The dance
was kept up untU about midnight, when all
retired, satisfied that the liurtis House Hops
are an institution that cannot be dispensed
with. ISuch are our sentiments.
A Case for the Charitable.—
Thei e is in this city a family composed of
three persons—a man, his wife and his mo.
ther-in-law—who are actually and unavoid
ably in astute of the utmost destitution.—
The man is honest, industrious, sober, and a
good workman at his trade, which is that
of a carpenter. Being unable to find any
employment, l:e has expended his whole
savings, and for several days past the fami
ily have been kept from actual starvation
by the charity of the neighbors. We know
these facts to be true. The man is willing
to do anything by which he can support his
family. Hi-* name and residence may be
learned at this otllce.
Dillon Trickery—A Deserved
Exposure.—John
F. Dillon, in the extraor
dinary position in which he has placed
through a packed convention dare not hesi
tate to resort to the most dishonorable
means of electioneering, to injure his op
ponent, and secure his own success.
He has gone into the highways and bye
ways, among Irish Catholics, with false
hoods and slanders upon his tongue, res
pecting Judge Bennett, in order to induce
the Irish Catholics to vote for him against
Bennett. His two main misrepresetations
are as follows:
He aud hts hired agents and tools, repre
sent that Judge Bennett is a Know Noth
ing, which we are authorized to pronounce
A WICKED AND BASE CALUMNY, with
out shadow of foundation, and made by
Dillon WHO WA9 ONE CF TUE MOST ACTIVE
KNOW NOTHINGS IN TH* LODGE IN THIS CfXT
If John 1'. Dillon, or his friends, will resort
to such disgraceful methods of electioneer
ing, we must eTpose the fraud.
John F. Dillon, was and it a Know Noth
ing, while Judge Bennett never toot a metn
ber of the order. We believe we have good
authcrity for this statement.
The next dodge, of Dillon and bis friends
against Judge Bennett, is, that in the Mc
Carthy will case, in which the mill pro
perty claimed by Judge Grant,was willed to

distinguished speakers will present ami address

Starr has Oodey's Lady Book
for October. The fine steel engravings it
contains are worth the priced of a number
Theatrical.—Yankee Scoville, well
supported with a talented troop of actors,
performed laiit night at Island City Unll, in
llock Island. The plays were admirably
foistuinei], and well appreciated by the au
dience. They will perform to-night and to
morrow night only—at the same place.
Intkrmediatk School.—An exami
nation will bs held to-niorrow in the stone
school house, in District No. 2, of applicants
for admission to the Intermediate of City
High Schools. The Hoard are anxious that
as many as possible enjoy the advantage of
this school, and hence pressingly solicit all
those desirous of entering it to present them
selves promptly for examination. Exercises
will commence precisely at 9 o'clock a. m.
Although we apprehend no such danger,
yet aa we are good natured, and disposed
to be accommodating, we will comply with
the request of our neighbors.
We suppose however that it is well un
derstood that the Time* is the orgun of the
majority of the party, representing as it
does the Grimes, Uorris & Co., and Hiram
1'rice, clique, in opposition to the email
squad which comprises the Thorington
clique and which has a mouth piece in the
Gazette.
When therefore we refer to the organ of
the republican party in this city we wish
to be understood as meaning to the Times,
that paper representing the majority of the
party.
The Railroad Meeting this Eve
ning.—Perhaps few realize the vast impor
tance. the serious magnitude of the subject
to be discussed this evening at the Council
Chamber. We fear that timidity, short
sighted and destructive economy, and mo
tives of personal selfishnees will creep iu to
mar or defeat the the plans which the pub
lic consciousness craves aud approves. O
that little men—fussy men—narrow-mind
ed men—and timid men would stay away
from such meetings, or if they go, go only
to be converted to the knowledge of the
true policy of our people upon vital ques
tions.
The questioa is for mora momentous
than we cau now appreciate. It is simply
whether we are to relapse into the lethargy
of decoy, or adopt the remedies that will
levelope our energies our resources and ca
pacities, in activities that will double
thrible, and quadruple the population,
wealth, trade, and true greatness of our
lovely city.
Let our solid men for once see the true
philosophy of greatness and prosperity. Let
them look Abroad and compare the internal
cities of the west with each other, and ob
seve the growth of sonio, and the decay of
others, and then ask what is the cause of
the difference—and the answer will be
RAILK •ADS. Memphis in the Slave State
of Tennessee, with a population of 12,000
resolved one day to try the experiments of
railroads, and now she has a population of
25,000 has (1,000,000 invested in railroads,
and does an annual business of over 25,
ooo.ooo. Her railroad policy is her true
policy. Real Estate with the population at
12,000 that sold fcr ?10,000, now with a
population of 25,000 and the immense trade
is worth f70,000. This advance in value of
real estate is always the result of activity
in trade and growth in population. How
can trade increase without the avenues of
trade are opened by railroads V Let those
who meet to night, be governed by that
true economy which is found in liberal in
vestment in works of internal improvement
SCOTT COUXTY AGHICIILTVBAL
ft'AlH.
SECOND DAY.
We are glad to say that ear antic
i{iations were fully realized, and that
the Fair grounds assumed a more flatter
ing aspect yesterday. Large crowds of
peop'.e assembled at the grounds, and a very
respectable number of entries were made—
more than at any previous exhibition of the
Society The entries of cattle were not so
numerous as we had hoped, but what was
wanting in quantity was made up in quali
ty. There were about 85 cattle of different
grades and ages about 100 horses 25
swine, and 56 sheep. There were only two
yokes of working oxen on the ground. The
Agricultural implement department was fa
vorably represented. W. W. Skinner A Co.,
S. Veite A Co., Davis, Watson Jt Co., and
many others, contributed towards this de
partment of the exhibition.
Of farm produce we were sorry to notice
that there was not a great variety, but the
articles shown were very fine. We saw
some excellent samples of wheat and other
grain, which went to prove that our crop is
not all bad. The samples of corn, potatoes,
onions, Ac., were very fine—the best we
have ever seen here. And as to garden
vegetables, there was very tair supply,
though not as much as wo oould wish to
have seen.
The fine arts' Hall was well filled with
representations of the skill of the ladies and
men of the county. Some very creditable
needle word, ornamental and plain, also
other artioles of home BMaufcatara were
quite abundant.
Our mechanics did not asaka a vsry ex

These are uuvaruUhed facta, which can
not be denied and which can b« aostained
by abundant proof.
A City Musician.—Amongthe bills
allowed by the Burliogton Common Coun.
oil at its last meeting we see one W. M.
Houseworth for filing tatct, $3 10.
Not understanding how a city under any
other hypothesis could need the services of
a *aw filer, we presume that he must have
acsed in the capacity of city musician.
Would not it be a good idea for our eity
dads" to establish a similar offiee, and have
the eity musician with his saw and file
attendance at each meeting of the Couneil.
His performances would be quite aa intel
lectual as most of the speeches made by the
"great enjoined" and would l*» vaatly more
agreeable to the public ear.
Thk Kepuulican Organ of Scott
County.—The Gautte is desirous that
when we refer to the Timex as "the repub
lican organ of Scott county" we should men
tion particularly that we mean the Time*,
lest perodventure the Gazette should get the
credit for making statements with which it
does not agree.
At the hour of I
test for the best
place on the Bird %Mpa, near the grounds.
There were nxta# catries made for the
prizes.
Class N. No. 3, boys wuler 10 years old.
Wm. Robinson, Winfield, age 14, second
premium.—$2
Kyra Seaman. Slopertown, age 15, third
Dremium.
Daniel Madden, Wintield, age 14, first
premium.—$5
By this it will bo seen that Winfield is the
Banner Township. Every premium but
one was taken by the hardy farmers and
farmer's boys of thvt township. We are
glad that the honors were gained by such
worthy men. The time occupied in plow
ing was not far from one hour and three
quarters.
This over, all proceeded to the' Fair
Ground, where everybody was making
themselves busy over stock and other arti
cles of value. The country around about
was moderately represented—as much so as
could have been expected, 'considering no
pains had been taken to eall the attention of
the public to the fact thai there was to be a
County Fair here at this time.
The Union Brass Band was on the ground,
and gave most excellent, music, besides dis
pensing a creature comfort, for which the
subscriber" felt under obligations at that
time especially—for we was very dry. Gcod
boys in that band sure. Our friend Tb.
Holm entered his bass drum for a premium,
and we hope he will get it
Jacob Metzger provided all who were
hungry—and a great many were, about noon
—with a first rate dinner at a large and
convenient stand, erected by him for that
purpose. It was a good investment to buy
a dinner at that place.
At one o'clock |the different committees
got together and went about examining en
tries, and awarding premiums to such as
they considered the most worthy of such
awards.
We took pains to ascertain a few of the
articles upon which premiums were award
ed.
On thorough-bred stallions, (open for all)
M. Cannon's horse France," drew the
first premium.
On thorough-bred stallions, the Flying
Black Hawk, took the first premium, and
Gitford Morgan, owned by Murphy of this
city, the second.
In this connection we would like to ask
the committee how a Black-Hawk or Mor
gan horse can be put down as thorough
bred," and premiums awarded on them as
such V The committee may understand how
Buch a thing is done, but it is difficult for
those posted in raising such stock to see
through it That portion of the proceeding
was extremely farcical.
The first premium on carriage and buggy
horses, was awarded to John M. Cannon on
the gelding "Fillmore."
On thorough bred brood marec, Mr, Can'
non took three first premiums.
On cattle, Philleo's large Durham Bull
took the first premium, aa sweepstakes—
from Port Byron, 111.
DURHAM STOCK.

Second best, Perfection," J. M. Cannon.
Best bull Calf—" Lord of Scotland," ten
months old, (weighs about 800 pounds) and
is undoubtedly the best in America. This
calf Mr. Cannon bought last spring of the
Illinois Stock Importing Co. for $500. The
young Lord" attracted much attention.
Best cow over three years old—" Count*
ess," owned by J. Cannon.
Second best," Evening Star," owned by
J. M. Cannon.
Best two year old heifer, "Roaa," owned
by Cannon.
Second best owned by same.
The best and second best yearling heifers
were exhibited by Mr. Cannon.

Mr. Cannon took took ten rem!ants that
we heard of an his Durham stock, besides

space to mention in detail -making in all
