REMOVAL OF TnE ADJurANT GENERALS
OrrrcE.-Wc are informed by Adjutant
General Baker that be conte,nplates the re-
moval of his cadquarters-ofiicc,a and the ap
purtenanccs belonging thereto, to the town
Of Clinton, at an early day-at least upon
the opening Of navigation.
We had much rather the General would
remain here, out MS he has determined
upon taking up his abode at Clinton, we
presume it would not avail anything to
offer any objections thcretc. ss,Ns5
IRIS So.-The experience Of the people
Of this city is that they can always get the
best boots and shoes at Child 4 Go. ., Bra
dy street, below Second, and about ten per
cent. cheaper than elsewhere. They have
the largest stock; their goods are all manu-
factured Of the best of stock and by the most
experienced workmen. At Boston one Of the
partners resides, and he pays particular at
tention TO taking the advantage Of the boot
and Shoe market. By this means they get
their goods ten per cent. cheaper on % av-
erage than other dealers who go themselves
to buy goods once or twice year You can
save that ten per cent. by buying your boots
and shoes At Childs & Co.
School EXHIBITION. the close Of Miss
Jennie vickery's school in the Hyde Dis
trict, in Pleasant Valley Township, the
scholars, aided by their teacher and some oi
the ladies Of the district, and several young
gentlemen from districts adjoining, gave 4
splendid exhibition at the church, near by.
The exercises were principally defamation
and dialogue, which were given with pleas
Ing effect. Vocal and instrumental music
lent its charms to the occasion. The sing.
ing by the glcc choir, consisting Of Miss
Cobb, Alpheus Mitchell, Misses Jennie and
Mary Allen, Miss Eliza Rowe, Miss Ella
Fry, aud Mrs. Fenno, was worthy ofhighes,
praise. It had been the intention of the
school to represent some interesting tab
leaux, and but for the insolent interfer
ence Of brother Phillip Earhart, whose
ideas Of tho sanctity Of church editice
rendered him obnoxious t. lSdies who had
kindly volunteered to assist in these pleas.
Ing presentations, the exhibition would
have been all tho more interesting. After
al. the exhibition was very pleasant indeed,
and one greatly enjoyed and long TO be re-
mcfnbered by the young folks Of Pleasant
Valley.
