NASBY,S LECTURE.

Nasby, at the Baptist Church, on Monday
evening last, drew out crowded house, and
was o pccuniary success to the i.yceum.-
The subject "Cnrsed be Canaan" was
handled with remarkable thoroughness and
ability, both sarcastically and logically
Negro haters and weak ,kneed Republicans
were scored down in a style of original
"cussedness," which lett little to be desired.
The Deacon Pograms and Smallsoals Of this

There ia a certain portion Of the war that will
never go into the regular histories, nor be en-
bodied in romance or poetry, which is very
real part Of it, and will IL preserved, convey to
succeeding generations a better idea Of the
spirit Of the conflict than many dry reports or
careful narratives Of events, and this part may
be called the gossip, the fun, the pathos of the
war. This illustrates the character Of the lead
ers, the humor of the soldiers the devotion Of
women, the bravery of men, the pluck Of our
heroes, the romance and hardships of the service.
The Valiant and Brave Hearted, the Pictur-
csque and Dramatic, the Witty and Marvellous,
the tender and Pathetic, and the whole Pano>
rama Of the War are here thrillingly portrayed
in mastery manner, at once historical and
romantic, rendering it the most ample, unique,
brilliant and readable book that the war has
ever called forth.
Amusement as we'll as instruction may be
found in every page, as graphic dotail, brilliant
wit, and authentic history, are skillfully liter
woven in this work of literary art.

Nor TRur.-A correspondent of the Du>
bnque Times, writing from Waterloo, states
tina, the Lycenm Of this city lost money on
the lecture Of Anna Dickinson. SO far from
this being the case, the Lyceum sold enough
extra tickets to pay the lecturer, leaving the
proceeds Of the season tickets to lift the
Lycegm out OF debt. Money was lost on
the lectures of DIR. Holland and W. II. Mil
burne, and something was made on the lec>
,ures Of Anna Dickinson and Nasty. The
Lyeeum is now sure Of paying its expenses
for the course Of five lectures, the last of
which will be delivered by Z. p. Whipple, of
Boston, on the 7lh of March.
Could the Lyceum have the use Of as large
q hall as that at Waterloo, I would be able
to clear more money on its popular lectures.
AS it is, Independence has done better than
some Of the larger cities Of the State.
