Davis were asked to come forward Hora 20
Grsciey's was the first name called. An ac-
count of the scene says
Mr. Greeley attracted wholesale attention,
and not a little curiosity was manifested to OBJ
serve his first meetiDglwith Mr.. Davis, whom
he had heretofore resolutely refrained from
calling upon, sin order to avoid a scene" as he
sad. He had no sooner recovered his perpen-
dicular after signing the bond, than Mr. Davis
moved forward and grasped his hand, and with
few earnest words thanked him for his good
offices. MIR. Greeley meantime accepted the
thanks with an abashed expression, but with
eountenance SO indicative of pleasure and self
satisfaction that the surrounding spectators
broke out into broad laugh, and renewed
their criticism upon his general oddities.
The names of the other sureties were called
in succession, and they repaired to the Clerks
desk and signed the bond, which thereafter
stood as follows:
The condition of this recognizance is such that

The monthly meeting of the County Associ-
alton was held at Stevens Plains on Tuesday
last. Owing to the rain the attendance Of the
citizens was not large, the audience being com
posed chiefly of the instructors and pupils of the
Seminary at that place. But what was lack
ing in numbers was made up in enthusiasm
A friend who was obliged to leave before the
adjournment remarked on retiring that he was
perfectly willing to vote that we had had
grand meeting. -
Among those who participated in the servi-'
ces were the President of the Association Mr.
Starbird, Rev. Messrs. Wetherbee, Tuckerman
and Reyes, and Messrs. Carlton, Beale, j. II.
Coffin and Rich of Portland, MIR. Hill of Fall
mouth, Rev. Messrs. McCollister and Record
of Westbrook and Mr.. Gerald the reformed
sailor. .. -
The remarks were all eminentiy satisfactory
and heartily applauded. One was almost in
clined to say that every speech was the best;
for certainly no one could possibly have taken
the place of another and done as WELL Thank
heaven that there are many men of many
minds-that gifts differ. 1t is equal cause for
thankfulness that some persons are not so mar
row but they can find
Tongues in trees, books in the running brooks.
Sermons In stones, and good in every thing"
But not unwisely to discriminate we must
not fail to add that our new friend, Rev Mr.
Keyes, pastor of the Chestnut street church, is
literally host, and brought to the occasion
manliness and beauty ofexpresson, an indie
pendence and vigor Of thought, and discrim-
inatiOn and soundness OF views which stamp
him as eminently man for the times, while
we can bestow no higher praise on Rev Mr. Nc
Collister of the Seminary than to say that he
fairly outdid imsell ~ I...a. ..-r
The music, too by Miss Pierce of westbrook,
was charming and inspiring, and of course add
ed very materially to the interest OF the meet
ings. ts#s sdI
There is but one opinion among those who
labor for the cause of Temperance, as to the ma
ture Of the rum traffic, and as to the means to
stop it. They give the choice to the rumseller
himself The evil may bs cured, as he may
elect, by the imposition of fine OF the value
of an old fashioned fourpence ha' penny, by
imprisonment, or, peradventure, when public
opinion shall become right, the application of
few feet of Russian hemp Let him decide
at once, for the car of progress is rolling swiftly
along.

IMPORTANT TO THE PUBLIc-It has been
found by those most familiar with the causes of
fires in our large cities, that wood
continuously exposed to very moderate heat
such as that of steam and hot water pipes, will
in space of time, varying from eight to ten
years, become SO infammable that it will take
fire at temperature very little over that of
boiling water. The wood undere oes slow
poocess of dessication and cbarring and only
awaits the admission of air (which it gets by
shrinking and cracking) to burst out into
flame.
This is important to those who use steam for
heating or other purposes in their buildings
where the pipes lead through floors and parti-
tions or near any wood work, to see that prop
er safeguards are placed around the pipes where
there is any wood work, or where chat or other
infiamnable substances may collect.
