FassDuLENr Tirkcrs.-As We stated would
hc the case, this Congressional district was
II oded On the eve OF the el,ction, With bogus
tickets, all Republican except the nane for
Representative III Congress. \ part Of these
tickets hal the name OF Mills, and . part the
name CT Thomas, in place of Allison. These
tickets were printed in the office OF the Dubuque
Hsroii and expressed 10 the different counties
Of the district. Tbs spurious Mills tickets re-
ccyci at Independence were destroyed, for
some reason best known y the Democracy, but
the Thomas tickets were fairly circulated. The
result shows that this old and miserahly dishon-
est trick Of the Democracy can no longer be
made available. Mt one Of these tickets was
voted in the city, and us far as heard from only
one in the county. Joe. Rkomberg's money
WIS thrown awny in that venture.

LECTURES IN THE CHURCHES.
We published recently letter from cor
respondent down the State, which alluded
TO pleasant and instructive lecture recent
" delivered before large audience in enc
Of the churches of the town from which he
wrote. II was success from every point
Of view, and the audience was delighted.
The query Immediately suggested itself
why are not the churches in those towns
having no public halls put to such uses more
frequently2 Except probably one evening
in the week, these buildings, often large,
and sometimes expensive, are never used,
but stand idle from Sunday to Sunday, of
no use to their congregations or the commu-
nifty NJ large.
This is not as it should be. Whether it
may properly be considered church duty
to educate and enlighten a community, or
not, all will admit that education and cul-
turcanything that enlightcns the mind
and quickens the impulses for good, renders
men more susceptible to religious influences.
Looked at, then, merely from the stand
point Of church-extension, without regard
tothe broad humanitarian principle of doing
it because ii will benefit their fellow men, it
is to the interest of the churches to afford to
the people dwelling in and around these vii
lagos such opportunities as can be had for
mental Improvement and culture
10 do this we believe is altogether practi-
cable. A Cough or Beecher could not
probably be attracted by the modest remu-
ncration the audience gathered in village
could offer them, but men of ability and cul-
ture could be got to deliver few lectures in
the course of winter-men who could i'm
part as much of solid information as either
ofihc popular lecturers above alluded to- or
any Of their ilk. We know this is true, and
ask our readers in such towns to take the
matter into serious consideration, Let So
cciics be formed ior this and similar purpo-
scs in those towns, in which all well dis
posed persons can meet and act together.
Even if the societies failed to accomplish
any object, they must result in good. The
position of young man, who may not be-
long to church, in one of these towns, is
sucl that beyond his business, he has moth
ins whatever to occupy his tiiac or thoughts,
and just for the lack of something to do, or
some place to go, he often becomes bar
room lonnger, corner loaicr, or both.
