Lecture by w. e. Davis, Esq, for BEN
eft OF Soldiers Aid sSOcietv

ent OF Soldiers Aid Society.
We are requested to announce that
the Ladies Soldiers Aid Association
of this city, have secured the services
OF this gentleman to deliver lecture
in aid of the objects of that Association
on Thursday evening next, probably
at the City Hall. Mr., DAVIS, it will
be recollccted, Is one of the three
newspaper correspondents who made
their escape from the rebel prison at
Salisbury, N. G., last winter, and the
story Of whose experience has so
thrilled and interested the country
throughout its whole extent. Aside
from the intrinsic merits of the lecture
which may bo expected, and which
will amply repay the most liberal
pecuniary compensation for the priv
ilege of hearing it, tho cause in whose
favor it is to be delivered, now requires
unusual efforts of the patriotic people
Of the country in its behalf. The late
battles, which have resulted in such
glorious victories, have nevertheless
brought the usual and inevitable con-
sequences to thousands of our brave
boys-wounds, disability and death
To relieve as far as practicable, the
sufferings of the sick and manned ho-
roes; afflicted in consequence of their
devotion to tho cause of our defense
and our preservation from national de-
the Soldiers Aid Associa-
ton was instituted, and it has kept up
its labors, meetings, and its truly ben
ministrations with a constancy,
and a laborious devotion to its objects,
which have by no means been fully
appreciated by the people at large.
Have the people generally responded
as they ought? Let each ask himself
or herself what, from the commence
ment of these efforts, he or she has
done, or failed to do, that they might
almost without sacrifice have done.
toward the relief of the wants and suf-
fcrings of those who have met misfor.
tune upon the battle field for their
sakcs. And let not the most malig-
nant of the sympathiscrs with the ma
ton s enemies for q moment suppose
th9t they have no interest in the bcne-
fits to bc conferred by the triumph of
tho National cause. 1t will do them
good in spite of themselves, except
they be out and out traitors. The
names of those able, but refusing to
onCribute to these laudable objects,
ought to be published in q black and
damning scroll with the replies they
give to the solicitations which arc
made to them in the suffering soldiers
behalf All will now bavean opportu-
nifty to remove, in some measure, the
reproach from their names, of having
come short of their duty in the mat
ter referred to-and we hope to see
demonstration which shall rebound to
the lasting credit of the people, and
result in substantial and efficient aid
TO the Sanitary cause.

DECEMBER, y, 1865.
Aword from Greene may not be entire
ly without interest but l will not tire
you with a tedious description.
The first settlers" came to Greene a lit
tie less than half a century ago. Land
was then cheap, but it was a long time
before most of them could boast of an un-
incumbered homestead. You see they
were not rich in money but were well to
do" because they had the qualities indis-
pensi5le to the pioneer in such a country
as this was, viz: physical ability and a
disposition to use it.
Patient industry changed the frowning
forests to the fruitful fields; and schools,
churches, mills, &c, &c, have sprung up
in our midst until we are in possession of
most things pertaining to our necessities,
and perhaps a few of the comforts, if not
the luxuries, of life. The distance, how
ever, to railroads and to the county seat,
is q serions drawback indeed it almost
makes us feel as if we were mot out of
the woods yet :" still We have this conso-
lation sound sleep at night and quiet by
day, because we are free from those ex.
elements that our, perhaps, more fortu-
nate neighboring townships have. Espe-
cially are we free from that distressing
malady known as ''oil on the brain" l
have. however, heard that some of cur cit
liens, and also some of the citizens of
Bloomfield, have taken stock in the
4" North MiddletoWn Petroleum Compa-
N.Y." of North Middletown, KY, but the
disease assumes so mild a form that pery
little concern is manifested about it.
Our township has had her part of sick
ness, during the past season, and is not
any more exempt from distressing acct.
dents than other townships. David R.

Lecture on Friday Night.

Gen. J. A. Garfield, N. c., will deliver
the fourth lecture of the Polemic Course,
at Webb's Hall, on Friday evening, Dec.
%. SUBJEcr:-"A Chapter of CONNER.
cial History"
This lecture will be one of interest to
all, and especially instructive and inter
esting to business men. The young men
of this community should not fail to hear
it at least ever young man who intends
or expects to embark in any commercial
business, should be present. General
Garfield stands high in the National Con-
gress as one of the most thoroughly read
members in finance, and for that reason
was probably appointed by the Speaker
to a position on the most important COM
mittee of the House, that of Ways and
Means. This community need not to be
advised in regard to General Garfeld's
abilities as a public speaker or lecturer.
He is well and popularity known to all
We hope u people viii not be deferred
from coming cut 10 hear on this occasion,
because II or two of the preceding lee
tureshavefallen shortofth eli expectations.
In this respect it may be some consolation
to know that other towns and cities have
suffered in like affliction, and that they
have survived them. Warren has no
sufficient vitality TO overcome the
