Editorial Excursion.

EI The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Co.. in order to bring the beauty and ad
vantages of that route to the East before
the Southern and Western public, has
projected grand editorial excursion
over the road, from Wheeling to Balti-
more and Washington, and also to Mt
Vernon. Two or three thousand guests
have been invited, and through the CO.
operation of the Western connections oil
the road, they will be passed free from
almost all points Of the West and South
west. The scenery along the Baltimore
and Ohio road is Of the grandest descrip-
ton, while some of the greatest triumphs
in railroad building. over natural OBJ
stacles. is exhibited on this road. The
iiberality Of the company and its con
necticns, to the press. in respect to this
excursion, is worthy of all praise. The
tickets are good from the 18th of April
TO the l4th of June. We have received
one, but shall hardly be able to use it.

Weather.

Weather.
EE We had a very fine rain early
Monday morning, lasting two or three
hours, and a nice shower Monday after
noon. No water had fallen for a long
time previously, and the earth had be-
come excessively parched, almost com
pletely whitening the bright hopes of the
farmers. We think, however, that no
great deal of damage has been done to
the grain, and that with favorable wealth
or hereafter, the splendid prospects of
early spring will yet be realized. Since
the rain of Monday vegetation has put
forth rapidly, and smile seems to cover
the whole face Of nature. The animal as
we'll as the vegetable has been invigorat-
ed, and men have received new conf
dence. A good crop the present year
will go very far toward disseminating
us from the load of debt with which our
people have been burdened, and placing
US in prosperous position.

In Independence, Iowa, Nav 5th, Mrs. MA

In Independence, Iowa, May 5th, Mrs NAL
VIVA, wife of T. G. BARTLE, and eldest
daughter of Moses PUTNEY, of Hopkinton, n Z.
H., in the 35th year of her age.
Waukegan Ill.) Gazette and New Hampshire
papers please copy.
Mrs. Bartle's mind was early impressed with
the subject of Religion, and it had much to do
in guiding her tender footsteps. In her 18th
year. she put on Christ publicly, by uniting
with the Baptist Church in Libertyville, Lake
county, H., of which she remained a worthy
and respected member until happily united in
marriage with the one who now so deeply feels
her loss, and removed with him to this place.
Here she became one of the constituent men,
bers of the little Baptist Church, which was or.
gained some two years since, with IL in num-
Der, and for the welfare of which she ever man
ifested q deep interest and much solicitude-
She was firm and decided in her religious
principles, yet kind and benevolent toward
those differing from her in sentiment She is
the first of the membership of the church-now
numbering 35-that has fallen by death Her
brethren and sisters feel that the Lord has deep
~ afflicted them in this bereavement, yet they
would not murmur, believing that God orders
all things well. She was mild and gentle in
her disposition, modest and retiring in her man
ners, and to know her was to love and esteem
her. In her the poor found friend, the aff1ic-
ted one to sympathise with them, and ever
ready to administer relief to the extent of her
ability But the domestic circle was perhaps
more emphatieally her peculiar province. Here
her amiable qualities unfolded their richest at
fractions, and exhaled their sweetest odor-
Here, also, the severity of this affection will be
most deeply felt, Her last moments were most
happy and triumphant, clearly demonstrating
the power of the religion she professed to sus
tain her in the dying hour She earnestly en-
treated her husband, daughter, brother and
sister, and friends to prepare to meet her in
another world.

DIR. Bakers Pain Panaeea.

We are not in the habit of endorsing pat
np p.,Dp.s ent medicines unless We have
~ ndubtable proofs of their
PAIN efficiency. In view of the
p,N.CEA multiplicity of quack nos
trums with which the coun-
try is continually flooded, it becomes oftener
the duty of the journalist to warn the public
against imposition than to commend medicines
and remedies that possess merit; but when a
medicine earns for itself reputation, and be-
comes an absolute necessity in every family
where there is disease, and when those who use
il never after dispense with it when they are in
need of remedy for pain or disease, it then be.
comes the duty of the journalist to make such
medicine or remedy as widely known as pos
sible. Our attention has frequently been called
ms well 10y those who use the medicine as those
who aell it. TO the unexampled success of ia

Good Templars, Celebration.

On Wednesday last, agreeable to previous ap
pointment, the Lodges Of Good Templars in
this village, assisted by quite a number of mem
bers of the Order from Quasqueton and Little
ton, dedicated their new hall by appropriate ex
ercises. At one o'clock, p. NJ, the members o
the Order assembled at the Hall, and at o'clL
formed in procession, with banners and music,
under the direction of A. H. Fonda, Marshal
and N. A. Bassett and Charles Wattles, Assist
ants, and marched to the Court House, at which
place they were addressed by Rev. John Full
ton, in mastery manner. The address con-
cluded, the procession was reformed, and tn
line of march talen up to the hall. Arrived al
the hall, the following order Of exercises was
observed
l. Prayer by Rev. Mr.. Boyer.
9. Music.
3. Address by en-. Van Duzee.
4. Original Song by Bro. J. S. Hampton.
5. Address by c. E. Lathrop.
6. Music.
Z, Dedicatory Prayer. by Rev. II. Kinsley
The President Of the Day then declared the
Hall dedicated to Temperance purposes, after
which the assembly was dismissed by bene-
diction from Rev. Mr. Fulton.
The whole affair passed off in fine STYLE and
all seemed to be highly pleased with the doings
of the day. The Order of Good Templars in
Independence is composed, mainly, of some of
our best and most public spirited citizens, and
the growth of its membership is both extensive
and healthy. Every candid citizen of our vii
lage will acknowledge that much good has been
accomplished in our midst, through the enthu-
siastc and persevering efforts of the Order.
Long may it live to throw its heavy weight of
influence in aid of the great moral victory which
is yet to be achieved over the deadly blight of
1ntemperance. L.
