We can heartily commend him to the people of his contemplated new home, knowing they will find him a true Christian gentleman, and an earnest and efficient educator. We wish him a safe journey. Last Friday the Frank Hatton manage ment of the Burlington uawkeye , entered upon its fourth year, and a truly profita ble one it has been. Frank left a pros perous weekly, where he was working 16 or 18 hour a day, and against the advice of his friends (who feared for his health) he took charge of one of the leading State dailies, and has made it truly a power in the land. Hatton himself, intelligent, prompt, active, never satisfied, unless, at work day and night, has been a power to drive the machine, and with such editor ial assistants as the Burdettes, and the business manuger, Capt. H. W. Hall, he has steered the craft through the breakers to the open sea, where with fair wind, sails set, course marked, and no uncertain wavering, the Bark sails onward toward prosperity. Like most lowa papers the profits are added to the paper, and the city gets the benefit of its patronage, by having every cent it makes invested at home, building up a paper that Chicago might be proud of.

A family claiming to be grass-hopper victims, passed through here last week; their wagon bore the legend, “iLLiNoyS oR BuST,” though busted seemed more appropriate. A family of this neighborhood spent two days and a night at South River, and caught one poor little fish. On® of our friends remarked the other day: “They should invite everybody to the fishing-party, or there would be no one to ridiclue it in the papers.” We felt that he had struck the key-note to “Mis Chief’s” attack of bad English. lihinehart’s dog peeped into a looking glass that was temporarily placed on the floor, and attacked the ugly cur mirrored there; the “other dog” was instantly anni hilated; the frame was not injured. Some of the correspondents insist upon advertising the weather. Now kindly, fellow sufferers, do you suppose the sub scribers and borrowers of the Herald care to read “cold Saturday and hot Sunday” every week, when the climate is so nearly alike all over the country?

Committee. New Sharon Correspondence. Eds. Herald. —Since Gen. Grant has captured England, and the French Cham ber of Deputies has been dissolved, —and Miss Ida Sweet has triumphed over all opposition and retained her place as Pension Agent at Chicago, and James Russell Lowell has accepted the Spanish mission, and the Mollie McGuires have all been hung, and several other matters of minor importance have been settled, the people of New Sharon have quietly gone to work attending to their own affairs. Joseph Penrose’s new house is almost enclosed and will soon be ready for occu pancy. Mrs. Johnson is also building a new resi dence on south Pine street. Ed. Michener is a single man but that does not hinder him from building a neat little house just for the fun of the thing. William J. Cramer sold his residence a few days ago and is now making arrange ments to build a new house. The Presbyterian concert on last Sunday evening was largely attended and gave general satisfaction. The M. E. Sunday school had a grand picnic at Cobb’s grove on last Saturday. » Rev. T. C. Miller returned last week very much improved in health. A. W. Naylor and family have just re turned from a visit to Clear Lake. They report a pleasant trip. E. W. Allen is now proprietor of the Central House and proposes to dish up “matters and things” with neatness and despatch. Our blacksmiths have been seized with the patent right mania. Two of them are now traveling in the interest of Atwood’s new patent coupling. Oh, yes! we have a new drugstore. Dr. Dean-from Oskaloosa is the propretor. This is the Doctors second effort in that line here. But just wait until after the Fourth of July when Mr. Bowen of Bea con, opens up his new drug establisment in Moore’s building and you will see things moving at a lively rate. Mr. Bow en is a No. 1, business man and we are pleased to have him come among us. The heaviest rain of the season fell here on last Tuesday, doing muoh damage to bridges and crops. The ground is so wet that farmers cannot work their com for several days yet. We are awaiting with considerable anx iety the action of the Republican State Convention, which meets at Des Moines this week. We wait to see the platform and the names of the candidates. If the anti-policy element succeeds in controll ing the convention, we will hear a fearful howl from the policy men. But a howl will be the end of the matter, for H is most certainly true that the party through out the country is not in sympathy with the action of the President toward the rebles South. Buchre. The Albia Union has the following items: Before us Is a copy of “The Fifteenth Annual Catalogue of the Officers and Students of Oska loosa College.” The business managers did not go away from home to get their catalogue printed, but showed that they are business men by giving the job to the Hkhald Steam Printing House, and that bouse did just as good a job for them as they eould have got by sending to London or any other town of its size. The Hkrald office has built up and is keeping up a a reputation for this kind of work, second to no other office in the west. Oskaloosa College commencement exercises took place the other day and the Hmrald boys made a little item thereof about eight columns In length. It takes work to get np such a paper as the Herald, but Leighton k Needham seem to be equal to any emergency in the newspaper business. The South English Herald says: We acknowledge the receipt of a oopy of the Oskaloosa Herald, of last week, “chuck brim full” of an account of commencement exercises at Oskaloosa College.

She was a womau of retiring nature; yet was graced with those noble qualities which enshrined her in the hearts of those who came within the cir cle of her acquaintance. “Those who knew best loved moat.” Nearly half a century she was a faithful member of the Presbyterian church. During these many years she was true to her Redeemer. The grace He gave her shone ont in the family, in the social circle, and in the courts of God’s house. For several years she waited with beautiful patience until the Savior called her to that higher world where she should be crowned in glory. She leaves an aged sister, two loved sons, sev eral grand children, many loved relations, and hosts of friends in tears. To these she whispers: “I’m where all bloom with immortal years. Where God wipes away the failing tears; Where faith is lost in celestial sight. Where grace is changed for glory bright." BOUSQUET—On the 22d day of June. A.
