There Is something of a history connected with this event, that may be of interest to many ‘Trinune readers, for tho Watehweord once had, if [te does not now matutuin, a large circulation in i{nols, Wiseonsin, and Indiana. Something over a yenr ago Mr, Fadner nade hls appearance in this Stato, and from tho first tuuk tt strung po- sition aso temperance man connected with the Independent Order of Good ‘Templars. ‘The Watchword being offerud forsale, Mr. Fi he~ caine ita owner and editor, and estabushed fn office on Fayette street, Uties, Barly in the fall of 1850 ho removed bis offlee to the ‘City of Rome, iifteen iniles west of.
