exquisite workmanship of the specimens

made under the late administratio ton, in
January last, with the National Bank
Note Company, by which that Company
are to furnish the Post Office stamps for
four years. and that contract is consid-

but from a view of the affair from the
rear windows of our office should judge
that it was one Of those oft-occurring rows
in which there is. nobody 10 blame" The
particulars, as near as we can learn them
are, that one woman undertook to chas
ti-e another woman's child; the other wo-
man didn't like it-neither did the child
\ war OF words ensued, III which it was
limited that woman No. ? could dick
woman No /, if she again interfered
with the child. Woman No. |, being OF

and accordingly she pitched into her adj
versary and threw her and the child out
of doors, fortunately, however, not doing
either Of them much injury. Policemen
were called, and settled the affair whit
out further resort to musular demon

Last Friday evening Henry Hall,
Esq, of Rutland, delivered lecture in
the Baptist Church on the Life and
Travels of the Apostle Paul. The style
of composition was good, enriched with
fine engravings, and the rugged aspects
of naked historical fact were softeued by
fine language.
The concert of the Baptist Sabbath
School last Sunday evening was another
occasion of marked interest, presenting
as heretofore, some entirely new features,
and leaving the auditors to wonder what
next, in the way of variety, could be in
vented.
The potato-raising of the past season
in this section, has furnishedisome surpris-
