THE PICNIC.

Z j.
Monday last was one Of those cool, deli
cious autumn days that come back to
compensate us for the loss Of summer
one of those days when the south wind
searches in vain for the flowers, when the
song of the glad birds is hushed, when
no sound is heard in the silent forest save
the rustling of the variegated leaves or
falling nuts. The day was one Of those
sweet balmy smiles that Dame Nature
puts on when she comes to review her
summers work, when she mods COM
placently to everybody and says "come
and see."
Some fifty or sixty of the pleasure-lov-
ing ones OF Grand Haven, both young
and old, accepted her kind invitation and
repaired to the grand old woods, not far
from where Lake Michigan rolls up on
the smooth, sandy shore. Here they
separated, some to roam through the
woods in quest of nuts, some to swing
on the ropes suspended from the trees,
some to a game of ball-all to enjoy
themselves, all most willingly lent the
aid of their voices TO awaken the slum-
bering forest. At about o'clock they
met on the beautiful site, selected by Mrs.
KEzELER, and there enjoyed such repast
as monarch might envy-here JOY, and
mirth, and gladness, were free; all were
at home, for none could but feel sociable
under such circumstances. Finally all re-
paired to their homes feeling wiser and
better, their hearts beating more in uni
son with their fellow man.
Blessings on those whose kind hearts
prompt them to erect these bright way
marks along the journey of life. May
they live long and enjoy many such gath
erings.

RE-Bu1LpINo OF THE STATE NORMAL
ScHooL.-We are informed by Superin-
tendent Gregory that thorough exami-
nation of the walls Of the State Normal
School building has been made, and the
result is that they are reported perfectly
sound, so that the expense of entire re-
building is happily avoided.
The appraisers of insurance have award
ed only $4,000 as the damages by the
fire. A contract has been already let for
the completion of the interior of the bull
ding, which is TO be done by July l,
1860, aud il is hoped may be done by
April LIST. This, however, will depend
upon tho weather this winter. In the
meantime the school goes on as usual
occupying a portion of the Union Scboo
building. A large building adjoining the
railroad depot and formerly used as a no
tel, has been leased, and is being fitted
up for use until such time as the ole
building shall be ready for occupancy
So fortunate result Of this confagratior
will be source Of congratulation to th,
many friends of the Normal.

ATTEMPT AT BREAKING JAIL.--Three
prisoners confined in the county Jail at
this place, attempted TO break out on
Monday night last. Some person out
side had previously furnished them a
two inch auger, with which they bored off
in two places one of the large timbers
of which the walls are made, and were
just ready to remove the block and bid
farewell TO their gratuitous lodgings, when
they were discovered by the jailor's fam
lily, and their quarters instead of bccom-
ing, as they expected, the wide world,
were suddenly narrowed down to the
smallest cell in the Jail. BY the way, the
Tailor says he has in his possession a
good two inch auger that does not be-
long TO him nor the county, which the
owner can have by calling at the county
Jail, proving property, DC.

PIc-NIo.--The gentlemen and ladies
Of our Village, to the number Of one hun

mic party on the afternoon of Monday
last, under the auspices Of Mr.. KEzELER

to attend ourselves, we understand from
others who were present that the affair
was source of much rational enjoyment
and amusement to the partakers, though
got up on notice of some three or -four
hours.
