New KIND or BRIDGE Mr.. j. Frost who has
always been prompt and punc,ual in providing a mode
Of crossing the river at this place and elsewhere above
and below US, has entirely disappointed everybody this
winter. Our citizens, giving him up, set about the
completion Of his work in novel style, last Friday; .
party Of men, cut out about half an acre Of ice, and
Aeated it down the open channel to a point where they
wished to cross. whose width they had calculated, where
it became tightly wedged, forming a convenient cause
way. No less than fifty men are engaged cutting wood
inshis place, most Of whom have to cross daily to the
island opposite, where their work is going Cd. Immense
stacks Of cord wood now line the edge Of the island,
ready for the steamboats, in the spring. Other large
piles are stored for next winters use. Probably twice
the ordinary amount Of wood has been cut and banked
this year than any previous year. The increased de.
mand, judging from past years will be from thirty to
City per cent. A large amount has been cut and stacked
to be kept over the next, in expectation that prices will
be down. But We apprehend that the price will not be
lower in proportion, as its cost to get it cut and banked
has been less than usual.

Eln1nger Lyceun.

The attendance at the Lyceum last Monday evening
was not as large as usual, probably owing to the ques-
ton of debate being regarded undressing. 1t should
be the aim Of the Society, a. far a. possible, to take up
questions that have some general interest, so that every
one attending may be benefited. Some questions are
too thread. bare, and others too one-sided, to afford graf
i6cat;sn to speakers or audience, while others rest so
entirely on some one fact Of law or custom, as to afford
no scope to the speakers, and consequently, no spirit to
their remarks. Whatever will interest an audience and
animate the debaters, are always the proper subjects for
Lyceums to discuss. Such as these will deveope the
latent powers of all who take part in them, and stir
them to put forth their utmost efforts, as they become
warmed up in the debate.
The Society has certainly progressed finely tho at
tendance Of citizens has been complimen tary ; most Of
the speakers show improvement, and all have done we'll
Those who feared, yet tried, are no longer embarrassed !;
those who desired to try, but held back, are just where
they always will remain, SO far as public speaking is
concerned, until they make the effort.
In regard to the harmony prevailing. it has been pleas
ant throughout but little that was Objectionable has
ever escaped the lips of members, even in the heat of
debate, and no occasion has been taken to refer back to
any word or act Of any member as ungentlemanly the
Society steadily pursues a course that keeps all impro-
prieties in restraint-by giving them no encouragement.
The question debated was. Shouldn't Fugitive Slave
Law be respected and obeyed? ? which was vigorously
attacked and defended by a we'll divided body of speak
ers, each part Of whom we're earnestly alive to the just
ness of their position. Some excellent things were
said on both sides, and the usual amount Of merriment
was enjoyed by the 8 hits occasionally made. The
jury gave the debate to the negative.
Mr.. Country man was appointed by the chairman, MI.
Case, to give a defamation next week.
A question that has caused some talk in and out Of
the Society, was adopted for debate next Monday even
ing, viz, Does reason or revelation teach that man is
inherently possessed of an immortal soul |? It was
feared. at first, that it would turn on some unmeaning
theological point, or covertly attack the Christian re-
velation but the proposer claimed to he an evangelical
believer, and said his grounds were that there was no
authority for accepting the point Of general belief, eth
er in the Bible or reason, and it would be we'll to look
into the matter to test it. 1t was therefore adopted,
and the disputants appointed-Mr. Countryman on the
affirmative, and Mr.. Macdonald on the negative.
