For the Grand River Time


Mr.. EDITOR The season has arrived when,
usually, call is made for all interested to as
semblc and unite in the organization of an as
ISOLATION we term Lyceum hope and trust
a similar call will be made the present winter
1t is well known that, heretofore, but few, very
few, have participated, actively, in the exercises
Of the society. Not because we have not
among us many who are fully competent TO
WELD an argument on almost any subject-pot
because there are not many that appreciate a
discussion. Then why is it! Mere difidence,
pride, &c, To most of us the present season
is looked for with a great share Of satisfaction,
Notwithstanding we are in measure shut out
from the world Almost this whole commune
ty are directly and indirectly connected with
the shipment of the articles of trade, or connect
ed with numbering establishments, and are,
therefore, necessarily pressed with business du-
ring the navigabe months to Il much greater
extent than communities in general Their
business calls for action by night as well as by
day, and as the tired laborer looks anxously for
the going down of the sun, so we look forward
to the time when an ice bound coast will relieve
us from our labor and speak rest from toll,
quietness and composure from perplexity tits,
therefore, not strange that this season is hailed
with smiling faces and happy hearts. 1t gives
an opportunity for the cultivation of the mind
by perusing such books as arc calculated to
strengthen and expand that which alone makes
the man. Now, as we are about entering upon
the season Of our happiness and Improvement,
can we not gather a much stronger force to take
hold Of the Lyceum and make it both, for our.
selves and those who may honor us with their
presence as hearers, profitable and instructive.
There are sufficient, and those too that would
acquit themselves with credit, to impart useful
information TO all, if they would but cast aside
a little bashfuness that blinds them and take
hold Of this salutary handle of confidence.
We are sorry to say to you, gentlemen of the
Times, hitherto, we have you to class with such,
but trust it is the last regret of the kind that
can truthfully be uttered. We know your time
is occupied in winter, as in summer, but hone
you, with others, will give new impulse to this
locomotive of knowledge. Il

A HEoRoINE.-The Sacramento Union pub
fishes the following interesting incident:
Mr.. Cooper, wife and infant, reside on hulk
above, and in near proximity to the lst street
ferry. The other day the babe escaped mo.
ment from the presence of its mother, and
crawling to tho brink Of the vessels deck,
plunged into the river. The maternal ear
caught the sound of the splash, and without
pausing for moment to calculate upon chances,
Mrs. Cooper rushed to the spot from which the
child was precipitated, and eaped overheard af-
ter it. When she arose from the plunge to the
surface of the water, her babe was securely
clasped in her arms. The vessel being but an
arms length removed, she laid hold of it, and
clambering up the side, was again safely on
deck with her inestimabe treasure, before those
who were spectators had time to recover from
their amazement and lend assistance. Heroism
like this, is worthy of Roman mother. Let
the record of it be made wherever the public
press has power to blazon incompatible achieve
ments.
