BLUFFTON,


An enterprising town, the seat of justice for Wells county, on the line of the Fort Wayne, Muncie & Cincinnati Railroad, 25 miles from Fort Wayne. Population. 2,000. Its business men are alive to home interests, and have faith that the future metropolis of Northern Indiana will be on the present site of Bluffton. There are two papers published in the place-the Banner, (Democratic), and the Chronicle, (Republican) ; both are ably conducted and liberally patronized. The surrounding country is rich and productive.
