pose to publish library edition, and are
busily at work, in its ;preparation. They
hope to publish it in May next. 1t will be
comprised in eighteen hundred pages, and
will contain full vocabulary Of the words
used in Literature, Art and Science, togeth-
er with such local and obsolete terms as are
likely to be met with in writings that are
much read.
The treatment of Synonymes will form a
valuable feature of the work.
The grammatical forms and infections Of
words will be given very fully, and brief
critical notes on the photography, the pro-
nounciation, the grammatical forms, and on
the peculiar technical, local provincial and
American uses of words, will be scattered
throughout the volume.
Illustrations by wood cuts will form anoth-
or useful feature in the work. There will
be about twelve hundred Of these.
The library edition will be printed on fine
paper, with large margin, and at a retail
price of $3.50.

The Times.

We think the hard times are receeding
before more hopeful state of things. Men
talk more hopefully of the future, and ex-
hibit more confidence in business plans, and
manifest more buoyant feeling, and give
evidence of greater confidence that day light
is breaking, than heretofore. This is as it
should be. 1t is time for change tor the
better During the past two years, business
men have been curtailing and settling up
Mechanics have had all they could do to live
by tier earnings. The farmers if any class,
have Jared the best. The lumbormen have
had to economist and plan and carry on
their operations on a cheaper scale, to keep

groaned in spirit over his losses by low
freishts or idle ships. Confidence and bust

Mr.. Cole thanked the company for the

Proceedings Of the Hancock
Bar, on the Death of Charles
Lowell ESQ.

AT a meeting OF the Hancock Bar held at
the Court House, at the late sitting of the
Court, B. W. Hinckley Esq, chairman of
the committee to prepare resolutions on the
death of Charles Lowell Esq, reported the
following, which We're ordered to be entered
on the records
Resolved, That the decease of Charles
Lowell, d member of this Bar, though long
expected, comes to us as a renewed admoni-
ton of the frail tenure by which we hold
our places here, and Of the little Importance
and the ileeting character of all our earthly
pursuits.
Rcsolnsd, That our brother had many
traits of character worthy of remembrance
and imitation, for he was generous, honest,
jealous of his honor, ambitious of the worlds
esteem. and instinctively abhorent of what
he considered oppression and wrong. He
prided himself in being the poor man's law
yer.
Resolred, That we extend to the widow
of our deceased Brother our sympathy for
the loss OF him, whom she SO long cher
ished in health, and cherished with SO much
care and affectionate solcitude during pro-
tracted illness to its fatal close.
Appropriate remarks were made by Mr..
Hinckley on presenting the resolutions above
which were responded to in very fitting and
happy terms by Judge May.

or any other for that matter, have the wis
dom to rightly use SO much power as now
centers in the hands of the President, and
some means should be devised to place much
of it in the hands Of the people where it
rightfully belongs, and where it will not be
used to thwart their ishes and interests
The history of party politics for the past few
years, shows that this power is exerted in
many instances, in a shameful way. And
when it is considered that the love of pow
er is one of the strongest passions of man,
and that there is o constant tendency in its
possessor to abuse it, We may learn how i'm
portant it is that this evil should be remi-
