I've had intended saying some.
thing this week in regard to the benefit
TO every farmer in the County, derived
from the erection in this place, Of a
wcolen factory, but owing to the num-
Der and length Of our communications
we must defer it until next week.
Doubtless Mr. J. r. Graham,
whose very fine dwelling was consumed
by Gre few weeks ago, now wishes
that he had had it fully insured in some
good company. Reader had you not
better learn lesson from this and have
your property insured before the fire, in
stead ofindulging in foolish wishes af
ter it. See new advertisement Of the
Etna Company, the most wealthy Co,
lin the us. and call on Mr. ]. NJ. Shank

-. The Union meeting Of all the
denominations in this town at the NJ
j.. Church last Sabbath evening, for the
purpose Of raising money TO purchase
sanitary supplies for our sick and wonn-
dcd soldiers, was quite well attended,
considering the extreme GOODNESS Of the
weather. The Rev. G. w. Woodward
OF the Congregational Church delivered
:. very good and appropriate sermon on
the occasion, after which collection
was taken mp, amounting TO twenty
three dollars. This we think, is not
very large sum for our people to raise,
for the purpose Of alternating the suf-
frrings Of those who have gone to fight
the battles Of orr country, Int ii We
bear in mind that three large boxes Of
sanitary goods have been shipped from
here but few days since, the sum may
perhaps be digni(iel as tolerahle.
80. The exhibition Of the NJ. y. Sun.
day School, at their Church last Friday
evening, passed OF in very good style.
The singing dee!amations, and 'lia
logues, were generally well executed.
We must mention however, with 10
spirit of fault finding but for their benefit
IN the future, few faults, Of which
some Of them were guilty. These were
too hasty and hurried all .enunciation,
rs if their graceful parting bow to the
audience was Of much more Importance
than the delivery Of the piece itself;
and an inaistinct articulation, and
want Of a proper volume Of voice. All
however were not. thus III fault, while
some we must say done exceedingly
well. The scholars rs well rs teachers
and Director, were certainly very in
dustricus, for we learn that quite large
number Of their pieces were not deliy-
cred, notwithstanding the audience, ex-
coping an intermission for collection,
were entertained until eleven o'clock.
The church was filed to OVERLOOKING,
md We think the generosity Of our
people was equally unbounded upon the
occasion, for forty dollars was raised to
purchase new library for the school,
that being the object Of the exhibition.
Tho Sax Horn Band Of our town
were also present and generous contri-
buted TO the festivities Of the evening,
in their usual style.
The Rev. D. G. Worts richly deserves
and will receive the hearty thanks Of
his church, aud we presume the entire
community, for his assiduous and oner-
getic labors, in making the exhibition
such complete success.
