CnEsrER.-The familiar face of Lieut

CuEsrER-The familiar face Of Lieut..
Geo. w. kinsbury, [. S. A., was seen on
our streets Tuesday. Lieut.. Il has been
stationed at Detroit. Michigan. For two
years previous, he was on duty in the
Freedmen's Bureau in the State of Ken
lucky. Having been granted n short
leave of absence. he returns to visit the
scenes Of early boyhood, and receive the
greetings of numerous friends, who. by
the warm grasp of friendship, assure him
a cordial welcome. Lieut.. X. entered the
volunteer service during the early stages
of the late war, and proved himself n
brave and efficient soldier, and his trans
fer from the volunteer TO the regular
army, was based entirely upon his IA erits
as an officer, which fact cannot but be
gratifying to his acquaintance.
One of the most remarkable inSfanr e.
OF the preservation of the eye sight to a
green old age, is TO be noticed in the case
of Mrs. Nancy G. Barrett, relict of Hon
Thomas T. Barrett, late Of Chester. Mrs.
Barrett Is now so years Of age. and can
see TO read without the aid Of glI-ses the
finest of print. We recently saw several
specimens of embroidery worked by this
venerable lady, which would cause some
of the lasses of the present day to blush
with shame, II they We're TO compare the
articles with their own handiwork. Mrs
Barrett still occupies the mansion on
Prospect HILL" which for long series
of years was the home OF the lamen'ed
Doctor. and TO this day She dispenses
tality for which the occupants III thi'
charming retreat have long since beer
made famous, among those no are fond
of rich living and good cheer. and no elias,
of persons can 50 well attest 20 the truth
/ of our last assertion as members Of tn,
press, who on all occasions meet with :
cordial reception at this mansion.
Among the numerous building
which are to be erected the coming season
in this vicinity, there will be the Epic
copal church on Main Street. near the re
sluence OF W II. Hiitoi, 1hi e
steam mill, few rods west of the depot
opposite the dwelling house of X. b
Dunckell, and on land owned by z

PRocToRsvILLE.-Th concert of song,
advertised by Prof r. ii. Dutton and
associates for the evening of the 18th, at
Howe's Hall, came off according to notice.
The frequent clapping of hands, and evil
dences of applause in the appreciative au-
dience, showed that the efforts of the sing
ers, under their musical leader, to interest
and entertain the hearers, have been IN
these concerts crowned with success.
We learn that the passenger car Of
the train due here at Z o'clock on the
evening of the Goth, was invaded by a
gang of rowdies, somewhere below Cav
endish station, who, though they paid
their fares like men, by their gross pro-
family and use of the most obscene and
vile language, showed that they were
either drunk or else deserve to be classed
with race somewhat below the beasts OF
the field. Even the presence of some
clergymen, returning from an attendance
on the recent session of the Methodist
Conference at Waterbury, was not suffi-
cient to restrain their tongues within the
limits of common decency. We do not
know who was the conductor on that
train, but we are told that he would have
been justified in hating the train and
leaving the animals by the wayside.
Fortunately, they got off at Cavendish
station, and the other passengers were re-
lieved of further annoyance. 1t Il to be
hoped the time will come when all brutes
of this natur6 will ride on the cattle train
only.
