and Daughters Of the Odd Fellows Of our
city,a making arrangements for thecel-
ebration Of New Years Eve, BY the prep
aration Of splendid supper, ,obe served
up in the New Kilgore Hall. The old
Hall we understand, has been leased by
the Good Will, and Jefferson Lodges, for
the term Of ten years. The object Of the
Festivel is to raise money for the pur-
pose Of aiding in fitting up, and furnishing
the hall. Let it not be said thai, because the
Odd Fellows are. a secret society "there-
fore they ought no! to be patronized by
the public" Ale they not connected with
the yayjSus churches and benevolent in
stitutions Of our city3 and do they not
bear their full share of the expenses at
tendent upon these organizations. By
whatrule Of reasoning then, will il be
said, that those who are not mem
bers Of the order are excused from aiding
them in turn! Let us then, from sense
Of duty lend helping hand to this praise
worthy enterprise. The ladies' who are
engaged in this matter are pushing it
forward with commendable zealand we are
inclined to the oppinion that the magnif-
icent display Of the good things of this
life which will by them, be exhibited on
the occasion will greatly surpass any
thing Of the kind which has hitherto
been witnessed in our city. ,..
