religious teacher; the Councils which they call
ed had the right to install not, according to their
best Judgment and they did not install the people
have the right to call another that will do it. The old
Independent Church in Portsmouth ordained some
of their ministers without Council; and Rev. Chas
Milton, pastor of the largest congregation in New
burvport was read into office by the Deacons of the
Church. and staid there many years. Afer his
death, Rev. Mr.. Campbell the present minister, was
installed by Council, and no notice THAT we ever
heard off, was taken of the previous action"

Rev. Mr. Bolles' Temperance Address.

community, only to be qualified lest who could
not bear sound doctrine should unfortunately be dis

and permanent impression on minds hitherto unac-
customed to such discussion. VI e -

ONE OF THE OLD BUILDINGS GoNE.-The Paris
mansion, which was destroyed by fire Sunday night,
was of the buildings erected in the early part of
the present century. 1t was built by Mr.. Eleazer
Greeley, in the ye 1907, who was long known as
large -four merchant On Long wharf Subsequently
he sold it to Judge Paris, by whom it was occupied
until he removed to Washington, and who, after
wards re-occupied 1t upon returning Portland. 1t
was of those faithful built houses, such they
used to erect in former years. and thai and the house
OF the late Judge Emery were, for long time, the
only dwelling houses that part of Danforth street.
and both considered ornaments to that portion
of the city.
The mansion was owned by Mrs. Paris, now in
Washington in her right under the will of her late
husband, and it insured in the Portland Mutual
Insurance Co. for $4,000. iess- e.rs ....'

Of that year to Portland. Here he received in

THE TWO CONCERTS.

EDITOR FREMONT JoURNAL:-The writer OF
the effort of the young men who expended SO
much time and energy in making provision for
the public entertainment of our citizens last
Thursday and Friday evenings. was unable
to attend; but my inability was not one of a
moral nature. Had strength permitted should
have been there in person.
Permit me to say, in passing, that the writer
is not member of the society for which the
benefit was sought. / say this to countersct a
very mistaken idea, "that it is no matter if such
and such efforts fail if it is not connected with
our society" The remark above quoted is a
very short sighted view of what benefits aour
society" Surely when any such effort is per-
mitted to fail for want of patronage all societies
are involved in the failure. You certainly de-
tract from the interest and practical encourage
ment OF future efforts of the kind by whomso-
ever initiated. The natural consequence is, to
make the concert or the entertainment depend
ent almost wholly upon denon.inGtiOnal patron
age. Here there is a common interest which all
religious societies have in the prosperity of
each other; and it would be well if this fact
was felt. --7
But, Mr.. Editor, the two entertainments re-
ferred to above were not by any means failures
in their lack of interest to those attending; or
in their intrinsic merits. They were a great
success, if we may credit the statements of
those privileged to enjoy them. The failure
was to those who did not enjoy the rich repast
And then the receipts were not what they should
have been either as it respects their merits or
their objects.
have stated t,Oo reasons why this should be
regretted. 1st The object contemplated-an
I'd. The general interest which one people have
in ALL and all in one. l could hope the latter
might be appreciated as its true merits demand.
There is third which is well to remember
and act upon. The entertainment was home
effort. The money sought to be raised was to
be expended at home. The tastes and the needs
of the community being ksootUn and provided
for, the treat was more valuable one than can
generally be expected from strangers AS low
ers of good society," and morals, and of all prop
-
er advancement in that which is of good re-
port, we should patronize wisely and judicious-
ly all home talent which is expended to afford
healthful amusement and instruction to the
people. 1t is a sickly state of the public
mind which demands the novelty of stranger
to please or instruct; and which will pass by
healthful and entertaining home concert or lee
ture for that of some rowing mountbank. Let
me, however, close as 1 bugun:-Let thinking
men and women repudiate and spurn the idea
that would be pleased with even a partial fail
ure because the actors "were not ofand for u.s."
Let more noble Christian spirit be imbibed.
Nay, let proper understanding of 1ohdt is our
good be entertained; and then we shall see that
as one ProsPers, aHprosper-aso one one is affiict-
ed, all suffer. 7LI- p

MONDAY EVENING, Nov. 81, 1865.

MONDAY EVENING N oy. ~, lS05
Vestry met at the office of II. Everett.
Present: A. Phelps, Rector, Jas. W. Wilson
John Flaugher, H. Everett, and Geo. W. Tier,
Vestrymen.
Rev. A. Phelps affectionately addressed the
vestry and among other things said: He felt
constrained by reason of physical disability. ow-
ing to i'll health, to retire from the Rectorship OF
the Parish, and thereupon rendered his Letter
of Resignation as Rector of St. Pauls Church
and retired. DR.. Jas. W. Wilson then took the
chair. .fs.
On motion of John Flaugher, said resignation
was accepted by the vestry with much regret,
and thereupon John Flaugher, Esq. offered the
following resolutions, which were unanimously
adopted by the vestry.
1st. That we most sincerely and truly regret
the necessity for the resignation of Rev. Alan
son Phelps.
I'd. That we tender to him our heartfelt
thanks for the able kindly and successful man.
ner he has discharged the ayduous and delicate
duties of Rector of our church for five years,
last past.
Sd. That we most ardently desire bis speedy
restoration to health, and that he may enjoy a
long life of happiness and usefulness.
4th. That we recommend him to the kindly
and high consideration Of all good men with
whom his lot may be hereafter cast.
5th. That copy of these resolutions be pre-
sented to him by the vestry.
Afterwards at a meeting of the parishners,
held at st. Paul's Church in Fremont, Ohio,

The Norwalk Reflector mildly iutimates that
the Journal is not modest 1t wants to know,
alphabetically, d. In what respect our paper
is the leading journal of the District? 2. What
it has led? 3. Does it lead majority of the
voters of its own county?"
In reply we submit, l. 1t is the leading
journal in these respects: 1t is the largest and
one of the handsomest papers in the District
1t is printed in, and is the fair exponent of the
best county and the smartest and best business
town in the District; it is located nearest the
geographical center of the District, and has the
largest weekly circulation. "Modesty" forbids
US to mention other points of leadership.
2. The Journal has "led' some of its worthy
contemporaries of the District in very much the
same way, e. G., in which Fremont " leads "
her less thriving neighbors.
3. The Journal has no aspirations toward
leadership of ga majority of the voters" of San
dusky county. They require no one to "lead u
them. They are all right-they became lit
tie careless last Fall, but the Journal will re-
cord more satisfactory result next Fall
We have no disposition to discourage our
neighbor of the Reflector. On the contrary, we
hope he will prosper. He ought to go on doing
the best he can; which, by the way, is very we'll.
In fact we pleased at the opportu nifty of say
ing, that the Norwalk Reflector has, for q good
many years, been one of the very best, most
prosperous and neatly printed county papers
in this or any other State.
Are you satisfied brother Wickham?

RETURN OF THE 18th.

Our notice of the return of the gallant 49th
was accidently omitted last week. The follow
ing we take from the Tiffin Tribune:
WELCOME HOME, WORTHY Sons OF OH1o-
The 18th Regiment o. V. v. l. are now at
home; they arrived at their homes on last Sun
day morning. The officers and men are not
looking so hearty as they did in the winter of
1864, when they were at home on veteran fur
Tough. They all speak of Texas as a healthy
country, but that their trip home was hard
one, they being on the Gulf for fourteen days,
which fact accounts for their present appear
ance. This regiment has performed service
that but few regiments can boast of. We will
give brief outline of the most important part
of their glorious record for the last four years.
The regiment was organized at this place and
left here on the 10th of September 1861. They
arrived at Louisville, Kentucky, on the 2lst
day of the same month and Immediately took
transportation for General Sherman's command
which was then encamped thirty-fve miles
south on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad
From this point they marched to Corinth, Miss
issippi, from thence across Alabama to Battle
creek, Tennessee, and from thence back TO
Louisville, Kentucky, and from thence back
through Kentucky to Tennessee to the battle
fields In Georgia-from thence to Knoxville
Tennessee, and from Knoxville back to Chat
IauooSd, anu uOok transportation 10 THIS place,
where they arrived in February 1864 they be-
ing then on their veteran furlough. In March
1864, they left here and proceeded to Nashville
by public conveyance, and from there they
again marched to Cleveland, Tennessee; and
from there to Atlanta, Georgia-from thence
back to Nashville, and from there back south
again to Alabama; from there back again to
Nashville, where they took transportation to
Texas, and after arriving there they marched
hundreds of miles. We believe there is no reg
iment, that during the war, has marched fur
ther than this glorious band of heroes; every
man in the regiment has proved himself hero
and man, upon many hard fought field, Shi-
lob, Oorinth, Stone River, Liberty Gap, Chicka-
mauga, Missionary Ridge, Resaca, Dallas, Pick
ett's Mills, Pine Top Mountain, Kennesaw
Mountain, Peachtree Greek, Atlanta, Jonesboro,
Columbia. Franklin, Knoxville, Rocky Fork
Ridge and Nashville, are among the import
ant battle-fields that can testify to the bravery
and gallsntry of this noble regiment. The
49th has made record that will live in history,
and officers and men may well be proud of such
a history.
