The Damage by (lie Ijate Frost, Is not so great as we feared, yet it j is very considerable in the mountains and our accounts are still meagre. Mr. W. II.

Brown of Ivy says, in his section corn is cut clown, as also potatoes, wheat injured, fruit destroyed, and tobacco plants, where left uncovered killed. Very little tobacco had been set out. Malto. The old soug used to say: day brings something new. Every Now-a-days, we can say every season brings something new in the way of summer drinks. Soda water and ice lemonade became common, and then came moxie and milk shake and the jet victorious lemonade. The newest is malto, as yet without a rival in the way of carbonated drink. It is cooling, enlivening and delicious. Pellham has it on draft, or sparkling from the font. We need not suggest a trial of it. It will work into favor by its own merit. mpludent Trifling. . "The Republican State Conven tion of Wisconsin, held last week, adopted a resolution favoring a re vision of the tariff, and such a re duction of revenue as will avoid ac cumulating a surplus in the treas ury after meeting current expenses ot the government, &c." ' After thus demanding tariff and tax reform and reduction, thus en dorsing democratic measures and purposes, the Convention proceeded to say it did not desire reduction by tho democrats,but would wait to see if t he people will not turn the Gov ernment over to the republicans and then reform should come. In other words continue to tax the people over one hundred millions a year unnecessarily and beyond all needs ot the government rather than re lief b given under a democratic ad ministration. If Wisconsin does not go fov democracy now under that republican declaration, she must in deed be joined to her idols. A Denial From Mr. AVcaver. Postmaster Weaver desires U3 to state that it is not true that he swore out the first warrant for the arrest of W. P. McKee. In support of his assertion he referred us to police officer J. H. Hampton, who is also a deputy marshal. Upon inquiry Mr. Hampton told a Citizen reporter yesterday that it was himself who swore out the warrant, and detailed the following : "When I first heard ot the em bezzlement of the S2 bill by McKee I went to postmaster Weaver and asked him to tell me the facts in the case. This he positively refused to do, saying that he had fixed the matter to his own satisfaction, and did not intend to prosecute him. Mr. Weaver also said that he had dismissed McKee and he did not want to have anything more to do with the matter. "I told him that it was not for him to say what should be done or not be done. The crime was one against the statutes of the postal law, and that I would swear out the warrant myself. Weaver said that he should tell nothing unless he was summoned as a witness, and in that event he should only tell what he knew about it under oath. I left the office then and went to U. S. Commissioner Summey, and ex plained the case to him. He said "that is a case for the governmect," and I then proceeded to swear out the warrant. In the meanwhile, however, McKee had skipped, and I did not see him any more until I saw him on the morning of the rob bery. "It is not true that Mr. Weaver swore the warrant ; he had nothing whatever to do with it. I took out the warrant and am alone responsi ble for it" The Light Running New Home Mach ine, needles, oils, and parts for all mach ines, at the old Lyons stand. 9 Public Square. dlw New stock Bleached Domestics includ ing Pride of West, Wamstitta, Fruit of Loom. 101 Bleached and unbleached I sheeting, dtf just in at Whitlock'b.

Mr. Pear son showed how easy it was to be lieve, the reat necessity of believ ing, and the glorious results of be lieving. This strmon, as usual, was sound, logical and convincing. Several professed belief in Christ at the close of the meesing. Mr, Pearson said that there would be no services at the Tabernacle to-day or tosnight or to-morrow morning, and also stated that he would prob ably preach his last evangelical ser mon in this city to-motrow night.
