ir This eloquent and original lecturer en-
tsrtaiDed the citizens Of this city by lecsur-
ing in Young's Hall on the. evenings of
the 10Th, and 9th ult.az,-s s.a o. bss75,
The hall was .crOwdedaon both occasions,
and, With the exception of few Adolf
tiouists, all were highly delighted. with the
lectures. zna .e T. l-r--.
The lecture on Tuesday evening was
peculiarly. edifyipg. Mr.. Train, while
paying a high compliment to old style New
England education and CUSTOMS exposed
the enormity and perniciousness of Abo-
litionism to the view of HE audience. His
manner of dealing with the. ,AboIitionists,
and particularly his fastening upon them
the crime, of provoking this terrible war,
called to his feet I'll. Breckenridge, ESQ !,
the talented and eloquent Abolition lawyer
Of this city, who Interrupted the lecture by
some disOrderly remarks. Mr.. Train re-
piled to- him in a gentlemanly manner,
when, upon Mr.. Breckenridge renewing
the Interruption, some person near cOllored
him and compelled him to keep silent
There was considerable excitement for q
moment in the hall, but MIR. Train very
prudently called the house to order, and
requested that,no violence should be done
MIR. Breckirridge, stating that be would
attend to that gentEeman's case in due
time-whieh he most handsomely did after
the conclusion Of his lecture. o. - ..-
BE- The question agreed upor for discussion
between :. Messrs. Train and Breckenridge
was that of slavery, the latter assuming the
negative of course. By agreement each
speaker was allowed ten minutes; and
thereupor the audience was treated to one
OF the richest discussions we ever listened
to. Mr.. Train led of, and the manner in
which he fayed the isms, was caution
He proved that the eonditi0RpE the negroes
of the South would not be improved by
giving them their liberty, while the effort
would destroy the Government as it had
already done our prosperity aud peace
Breckenridge, though the big gun of Abo-
litiOnism for this State, was no match for
MIR. Train, and we give it as our opinion
that be was completely used up at the close
of the discussion '.' r5sa- .--
The lectures of Mr.. Train are calculated
to do much good at this particular juncture
of affairs. lie takes, bold grounds in TO-
vor7of peace, and denounces the imbecility
and duplicity of the Administration in the
strongest terms. Twelve months since he
would not have been allowed to express
these sentiments. A great change has
taken place I; and If we mistake not there
will be other changes before the year, is
cut.
The fact that Mr.. Train is greeted wher.
ever be lectures by immense audiences, is
evidence that the people will soon put q
stop to war which is ,waged forsthe free
dom of the negroes and to afford aRepubIi-
can officials opportunities for extracting
money from the public treasury.
worthy OF ATTENrloS Persons en-
gagged in the culture of bees and honey
should read the communication of Mr..
Hugh Billion in to-day's paper. Mr.. Boil
fonis'one OF the Oldestand most Intelligent
citizens Of this county, and his experience
and success in the management of bees
give weight to his views. Hundreds of
dollars are yearly thrown away by our
farmers and others who keep bees, in test
ing new patent hives, which, ae q, general
thing, are worthless. The tysteu which
is proposed by Mr.. Bolton is simple and
cheap. and, after years of successful trial,
he feels shat it should be 10 the possession
ofany Who may desire to make thss.-cul-
ture Of bees profitable. .d aHi-.s .s."@
