plated, and at last the warm-hearted, jealous
Christian is compelled, in justice to himself
and family, to sever the ties which for years
has bound him, in religious and social affeo-
ton. to the hearts of those composing the
congregation Of Trinity. Nor is this result
nainful to the Reverend gentleman alone. His
congregation, feeling deeply the sacrifice which
thew are about to make, have requested Mr..
N. to remain with them and appear occasion
ally in tho sacred desk, when an assistant,
whom they agree to select, shall, from indis-
position or other cause, be unable to appear.
Fully apprcciatiug this last of innumcrable
kindnesses Mr.. N, from sense Of duty, was
compelled to decline the proffer, and has left a
vacancy which is deeply deplOred by ALL
Nrw HIGH School BuILDrNG.--The Public
High School Directors have taken the inita-
tory steps toward tho construction of High
School Building on the southeast corner of
Sixth and Broad streets. Years ago this prop
ertv, situated in the most beautiful and re-
tired portion of the city, was purchased by
religious association which designed erecting
uron the spot n mammoth and magnificent
church edifce; but after laying substantial
iron-rock foundation, the project, like the lofty
aspiration of Solomon, fell through, and the
property to this time has remained unoccupied.
The building now contemplated by the School
Board is on a plan Of elegance and comfort
which will surpass by far any structure for sim
liar purposes in the West, and at an estimated
cost of $4,000. The design is for three sto-
ries, six school rooms, library, reception and
recitation apartments. Cloak and wash rooms
are also supplied, and after carefully examin-
ing the plan, the most perfect and desirable
feature is a large octagon corridor in the center
of the building, from which all the school and

rooms is cighty-four by ifty-seven feet, and
the tower will reach one hundred and twenty
two feet from the base.
The LATE CoNyENTIoN.--Th operator of
the Associated Press, made Il great blunder in
the name of Hon. C. Whitman, of Fairfield, for
Supreme Judge. If that gentleman had no
other source of information as to tho nominees
Of the Convention, than the paper shown us,
he probably groaned for his defeat.
The Central Committee organized last even
ing by eecting Geo. W. Manypenny Chair
man, and Alex. McGregor, of Crawford, Secre-
tlry.
1t is said that the nomination Of Mr.. Rein
hardt, or rather the course pursued by that
gentleman before, and in the Convention, was
the cause of Samuel Foster (of Doyle, Miller
& Co.. being thrown on the shelf. At noon
Reinhardt declared it as his intention to de-
cline a nomination, but when the Convention
was ready to nominate for Secretary of State
his namc was the first proposed. Reinhardt
and Foster being both of Franklin, the latter,
so far as securing the nomination for Board of
Public Works might be desired, was "goue
up"
The delegates have departed and our city
has regained its wanted compOsure.
THE FouRTH.-A contemporary is anxious to
know what our citizens will do on the ever
memorable Fourth of July. We answer by
asking another question. What have they
done on such occasions from "the days that
tried mems souls" to the present? Have they
not always celebrated? Of course, and our
word for it, they will again. Not being SO
fortunate as to comprise "our citizens" we
only answer positively for ourselves. We shall
celebrate, in some appropriate manner, this and
all other national holidays which futurity may
reveal, and nothing shall deter us so long al
pretzels and lager arc commodities which NAV
be purchased and devOured.
ExHUMINc CORPsE.-A few days since We
reported case of drowning, the deceased being
