Samuel Ham; Signal Bearer-Thomas
Wells; Bell RiRger-Lcvi Allen After
Sseveral fruitless efforts to elect a Foreman,
the meeting was adjourned till Saturday
evening at same time and place. There is
&c particular feeling about the first office,
hnd we would beg leave to suggest at the
sbext meeting the name of George Boutelle.
Ave understand he has had experience,
would doubtless make good foreman, and
Ne hope he may be prevailed upon TO ac-
scept the post
q A few evenings since some half a dozen
Republicans of this village happened TO
meet, and the conversation turned upon
dc presidency, when they finally resolved
themselves into Chicago Convention, and
ID the end of nearly two hours discussion,
u vote was taken, and it being understood
4hat the first choice of all was Seward, but
bach was to vote for the man he supposed
10 be the strongest candidate, and the fol-
lowing was the result; j. c. Fremont l,
Ay. L. Dayton /, John NJ. Read l, William

The Concert at Wightman's Hall last
veek by the Tarbell Family was very
pleasant entertainment. 1t was of course
novelty to see such young yocalists appear
upon the stage. As before mentioned, they
number six persons from to IA years Of
o., Fannie, the chubby little four year
Did obtained her full share of applause, and
j. "star" among the six. She was enthu-
siasically cheered, and when she sang Kitty
Clyde, was encored, and il was not the least
Interesting to observe the stole indifference
|Nsith which she received applause. She is
d brave little Roman. Jessie, the six year
bid, PLAYED the melodeon and sang her
sRdbin song splendidly. The two older
girls, Annah and Jenny, are fine singers,
|and played excellently on the instrument,
and very lady-like in department. The
boys performed their parts well also. These
young voealists, we are glad to learn, will
give a second concert in this village at
EWightman's Hall, on Friday evening of
next week. Anything like decent weather,
and they will Of course have crowded

kaying our village with a good and sub

pot he excellent cooks of that place, Mr..
n. Wallace and Mrs. p Z. Albee, are de-
serving of special mention, and should by
u means be omitted. We doubt if better
epoks can be found elsewhere, and full

Thomas Beals has finally got under full
headway in Clark g. Hammond's new build |
