/ The Universal cry, "What shall buy for
Holiday Presents can be answered best by
Parker & Co., IS & 100 Summer ST., Boston,
who have an immense variety of Holiday and
useful articles, such as all kinds of Fancy
Boxes, Writing Desks, Glove Boxes, Albums
in Morocco and Gilt and Velvet bindings,
real Morocco Shopping Bags, Furnished Ret
icules, Silver Plated Ware, and Cutlery of all
descriptions, Jewelry limitations of the latest
styles of solid gold, which cannot be distin-
/ guished from the real &C., &C., and hundreds
/ of the latest and most entertaining Books.
Their stock contains almost everything nee
essary to supply the wants and crafty the
/ tastes of everybody, and they claim that their
superior facilities for buying these goods en-
ables them 10 sell at very much under the
regular prices paid for such articles. They
want Agents everywhere, to whom they offer
most liberal inducements. We call attention
to their advertisement in another column.

TEACHERS 5 INsTITUTE.-Next week teach
er' institute will be held in this place. We
understand that arrangements have been
made to have very interesting and benef.
cial session. Certainly there is not teacher
in the county who wishes to prosper in the
profession, who will not be willing to give
b.s s;d arJ h;- r-a,ano. -. 4L,t o<o,.;l,,
and surely there is no school board in the
county having the interest of the schools
at heart, that will not sanction this enter
prise. We think all teachers and directors
should feel it their duty to attend the insti-
tute, for thatis the place to discuss school ques
tions, and an interchange of opinion while
it can do no harm, may be the means of a
great deal of good to our school system.
The WEArHER. AT six O'Clock on Satur-
day morning it began to snow, and twelve
hours later, we had bed about fifteen icbes
deep. During the night the wind arose and
the snow drifted so much, that on Sunday
and Monday, the roads were almost impassa-
bic. Since then, the roads have been broken
and sleighing and shedding have been pretty
good. On Tuesday it grew colder, and blew
fine snow all day, increasing in fury after
sunset. About midnight the wind fell, and
toward daylight it began to rain, and on Wed.
nesday morning our deep bed of snow was
converted into slush and water, which rem
dered travel very disagreeable. Since then
it has been raining pretty steady, and we
have no signs of quitting as we go to press.
Now is the time to insure. When money
is stringent, business men should not forget
to insure their property. For many mans
wealth is bound mp in his dwelling, or his fur
niture, or his stock Of goods. The Etna In
surance Company of Hartford Connecticut is
certainly the most reliable company in which
to place the risk of all your wealth. This
Company offers superior inducements to
farmers to insure their dwellings or barns

There is no more sffectual relief in these dis |
eases to be found, than in the timely use of
