A good Idea. r
We observe that in some Of the towns Of
this State they have inaugurated a new
era in the butter trade That is, they
propose to regulate the price in accordance
with the quality of the article. This sys-
tenn should be adopted and strictly adhe,
red to in every town in the St,te we
never could see the propriety or justice ol
making man pay just as much for but
ter that was "strong enough to help ITSELF
or ''old enough to vote" as he would
have to pay for good, sweet, fresh ar
ticle. II is system that is observed in
all other kinds OF traffic. and why itshould
no: be 10 the butter trade we have always
been at loss 10 determine. Adopt 1t,
and we will soon see an improvement in
the butter that is brought to market; but
as long as people can realize as much out
of poor butter as they can out of good,
they will not bestow much labor or care
upon its manufacture.

|
In accordance with the notice published
in our paper Of last week, the Indepen.
dent Order of Odd Fellows of this county
celebrated the 4oth anniversary ofthe or
ganization OF the Order IN the United
States on last Tuesday. Owing to the in.
clemency Of the weather the attendance
was not SO large as it would have been
had the day been pleasant.
The Order marched through the prin-
cipal streets Of our town in full regalia.
in which they presented very fine ap-
pearance. The procession then proceeds
ed to the Court House, where in con-
junction with large number Of ladies
and gentlemen Of the town and vicinity,
they listened 10 very excellent and ap-
propriate speech, delivered in very fine
style. by our young friend, John Berry,
Esq.
After the programme had been gone
through with at the Court House, the
members of the order, together with a
number ofladies and gentlemen who were
not members, proceeded to the American
Hotel. where, as was previously announ-
ced, supper was served up.
Ofthe supper, or the manner in which
it was discussed, we are not prepared to
speak understandingly. The Committee
informed the pnblic that no person would
be admitted who had not ticket, but fail
ed 10 inform outsiders where tickets could
be procured, and we being without the
necessary documents did not feel disposed
to apply for admission. We presume.

Fortunately, Mr.. Snyder left the engine
about minute before she exploded, and
