gTWe learned yesterday, from re-
liable source, that il is the intention Of
Jenny Lind to return to Newport after
making her trip to Canada and tire
Springs and that she will remain here
about Two weeks. We know that she
applied 10 the Germ ar,ia NieBicA Socie'
ty, after her visit to Newport, 10 know
il she could have their scrvices Az I'm
Orchestra, in case she gave a Concert
here,-anl she was informed that she
could. We think, therefore, that the
probability is she i'll return here about
the middle of August, and remain for
two weeks and no doubt she will give
one or more Concerts while here. She
would be sure Of large audiences, as
many as any building which we have
could hoid,-ior the town would then be
: full of visitors, and these, with many Of
our own cilizens, and such ms would
come from Providence and other place .
in the vicinity, would ensure crowded
audiences Tor at least two or three Con-
certs. Should she come here, the in
duceRent for her 10 give Concerts would
be strong, because she could have the
assistance OF those accomplished music
ians, the Germanians, who are marked
iavorites with her, and to whom che
has given the highest testimonials Of APP
probation.

nominated the Hon. Samuel +. Vlnton
as their candidate for Governor. This
gentleman, AT the end of the last session,
retired from Congress, after having
served in The popular branch for near "A
quarter ola century. He was regarded
as the most able man in the House.
He has earned a national reputation by
his talent and industry, and we have no
doubt that the reopIc OF Ohio will place
him, by triumphant majority in the
Gubernatorial chair. We regard the
nomination of Mr.. Vinton in every res

Ma. EDITOR -

Mr.. EDITOR -
The anniversary Of
our National Independence was celebra-
ted in becoming manner at the South
School Academy in Jamestown.
The house had been previously de-
corated with green wreaths and flow
ers in great proiusion, and the pupils
furnished an abundance OF cake, &C.,
together with lemonade, cool as from
the living fountain.
Miss Bartlett, the amiable and accom-
plished teacher, was most assiduous in
her cndcavors to ID axe the children
happy, while those of more advanced
age seemed as fully to appreciate the
kindness OF this young lady in thus en-
deavoring to add one day Of pleasure to
the youthful class.
Many invited guests were present,
and among the number, Mr.. c. l.. Da-
boil, who favored the school and assem-
bly, with a well.wrtten and instructive
Grafton. He apologised to the audi
ence for attempting to even initiate the
orators who had for three -iourths of q
century descanted upon the rich legacy
our fathers left us, the fruits of the De-
claration of independence. and SAID that
rs this was his first attempt at public
speaking, he might safely promise it
would be the last. At late hour in
the afternoon the exercises were closed
and all repaired to their homes, happy
in the enjoyment Of the seventy-fi'h an
nual return of our nations birthday.
