Look Our FOR YouR RAILs.-Farn-

John Moran purchased some time ago a
two-acre lot on the Sewall place in Chel-

old-fashioned rails and posts. A few
nights ago every rail was carried of, leav-
ing the posts standing. 1t is probable
that those rails will be used for political
arguments.

o'clock precisely, this evening. Hon.
THos. B. CHURcH, Messrs. GRAY, HOLMES,

two extreme and intermediate points on
the river, 10 wit:
The Michigan leaves Grand Rapids

The Sabbath-School of the Congregational

or per propeller Foss, weather permitting.
Everything will be done to render the

A CALIFORNIA INcIDENT.-The dcrouement
of one of those thousand and one singular
incidents which life In California is constant
ly developing occurred in Scott Valley one
day last week. Mr.. Marky left New York Id
the year lS49, bound for California. lie also
left wife and two small children, a little
girl of five years and boy of three. Last
week his family joined him in Scott Valleys
after a separation of eleven yeafs. Tie vi
cissitudes of California life had furrowed the
fathers brow his hair which was of raven
hue when, with bright hopes and ardent exs
pectations, he bid farewell 10 His wife and
childreti and set out for the golden land, is
now thickly interspersed with silver hue
The little cir is just budding into woman
hood, and the baby boy has alttidst reached,
mans estate. So long has it been since they
parted, and so changed was he, that the wife,
when they met, failed to recognize the be-
loved features of him; who, seventeen years
ago, had placed the wedding ring upon hef

ThH "LtGHTNfNG RECKoNER. Barnum,
the re-established Snowman, has Gagged a
most remarkable adder in the shape of a
man. His name is Professor Hutchings, and
from his dexterity in casting up long and
difficult columns of figures, has been dubbed
the '1ightning reckoner." The New York
Life illustrated makes the following mention
of visit from the Professor;
s.IIaving invited Us to fill his blackboard
with figures, We did soj and we must say that
never, in the whole course Of our experience,
have we witnessed a more remarkable, mar
velous, and interesting an operation than we
saw, as the Professor, who Had been called
to the scene of action, the figures being in
readiness, with lightning speed and perfect
accuracy, cast up the long columns Of figures
which we had placed OH Ills board. lie was
just three seconds by the watch in footing
three columns of figures, each nearly four
feet in length. This is indeed most miracu-
lous.'
