TriOuHs,
ApAMsylLLE, july 5, 1870.

ADAMsvlLLE, july s, 1870.
MEssRs EDIToRs:-
Thinking that perhaps
you and your readers might lie pleased to
know how other people enjoyed thcm-
selves on the day we celebrate, | take the
liberty Of sending you an account of the
manner in which we spent the Fourth Of
July at Adamsvlle:
The Good Templars of Harmony Lodge
united with the ). Schools Of this place
and Middlebury in getting up picnic,
which was held in the grove about a
mile from Adamsville, near the Dodge
vile road.
The Good Templars furnished the
morning and the 5. Schools the afternoon
exercises.
At 10 o'clock A, NJ the procession
formed in front of the Lodge room and
marched to the picnic grounds.
After sufficient time had been given
for the brothers to we lemonade the
sis ;ers, Bro. Griffith, F. W. G, +, mount
ed the platform and announced that the
exercises would now begin, calling Bro.
John Powers, L. D. to the Chair. After
the singing Of America and prayer by
our W. G. VIM. Strong, the chairman
made few appropriate and telling re-
marks. Then followed the reading OF
the Declaration Of independence by Bro,
David Powers, Jr, W, NJ, with as much
feeling and as good delivery as it as ever
been my fortune to witness. An Grafton
on Liberty and Temperance was then
delivered by the w, G. T., W. NJ Tom
klns, which was listened to with much
apparent interest
AT the close of the morning exercises
the crowd gathered around the tables Sc
in the grove, and RECALLED themselves OF
the rich abundance Of good things pro.
vided by the kind people Of MlddIebury
and Adamsyile
In the afternoon short addresses were
made to the ). Schools by Rev. VIM
Iomkius, John Harrison and Frederick
Theobuld At the close OF the exercises
the Raccalorri lnsusceptaOuli, or rag
anu fins made their ppearance, dressed
ia the most fantastic style, making the
air vocal with the music OF tn.pans
horns, and other like musical instruments
Alter going through with a comic pros
gramme, which caused much hearty
side shaking laughter among the assem-
bled people, they broke for the woods
leaving the crowd to dispense in the bes
of humors. The picnic was Il complete
success; every one appeared to enjoy i
hugely.
The Good Tempars Exhibition q
night was also tip-top, in fact hard tt
beat The only complaint being that the
people gos too much for their money
which is u rare fault in this money max

Iowa and RchIand are the only counties
that have not indicated their intention

the case with Iowa county because she
has no capable and worthy men who

requisite qualities are the peers OF the

would grace the position OF Keprcsehta~

equal to any that can be elected. Among
these worthy citizens Of Iowa county,
stands prominently DR.. JoHN II. VIVIAN,
Republican who has contributed as
much toward the success Of the party in
the county as any man in 1t; Il Republl>
can who is ever ready to devote his Time,
talents and means 10 the good Of his
party; man whose personal honor and
integrity are beyond the reach OF the
most searching breath of suspicion; a

have the most implicit confidence lie

public Office, but has always persistently
refused when he thought his refusal
would not materially injure the party 5
prospects Of sHccess. Two exceptions
to his rule of refusing nominations, were
when he was elected Member of the
Legislature in 1862 and 1863 which pc
sition he filed with marked ability and
to the entire satisfaction Of his c0nstitu
oDts.
In view of all the circumstances at
tendant upon the nomination of Con-
gresham this fall, we believe the dele
cation from Iowa county should be as a
unit; there should be no difference Of
opinion if we desire our votes to have
much weight in convention. This result
can be secured in no way better than by
selecting one Of our own citizens for
whom the vote of the county shall be
cast, 1t is possible that neither Of the
candidates who now appear most promi-
nent, will be nominated in which case,
our chances for securing the nominee
would be equal with those of any other
sounty-especlally ii we were prepared
TO vote solid for one man In any event
it would be high compliment to the
citizen receiving the vote Of the county,
even though his nomination be an im>
possibility; and with all respect for 9th
er men of the party good and true, we
suggest that such compliment could
not be conferred upon one more worthy
than DIR J. IT, VIVIAN.

ANOTHER THEATRICAL row m BOSTON.
Trouble Between an Opera Singer and Man
ngtr mt tie Boston Theatre.

ngtr at tie Boston Theatre.
Boston, Dec a. 1870.
The audience at the Boston theatre last evening
observed that Mr. Albert Laurence was on the bills
for the part Of De Nevers in the OPERA .1he Hugue-
nots,n and that Mr.. Pierre Bernard personated the
character. The explanation Is this:-lhe opera is q
very long one, and, in order to bring It's repre-
sentation TO conclusion at q seasonable hour, IL
was considerably curtailed. Among the parts cut
out was rectative and aria in the very first scene
which belonged to De Nevers. Mr.. Laurence
has hitherto objected TO this elsion, az
the absent parts afforded him about the
only opportunity for solo display which lac
had In the opera, and some OF the recent
performances OF the troupe the parts have been re.
stored to accommodate him. Upon rehearsal last
Monday 1t was determined TO exclude the parts and
Mr.. Laurence lhereupon declined 10 persOnate
the character. Last night ne appeared on
the stage dressed for the part and Just pre-
vlous to the rise OF the curtain Mr.. Hess an.
tcipatlng trouble, went upon the stage and inquired
OF Mr.. Laurence II he intended TO assume the part.
Having heard the preliminary strains or the orches-
ira, and noticing herefrom that his aria was to he
omitted he replied that he did not intend 70 sing,
ana when asked why he was dressed for the part
and why he did not retire If he did not intend 10
sing, Mr. Laurence replied to the effect that he in
tended to see the audience first and explain matters
to them. This Mr.. Hess declined to permit and Mr..
Laurence was induced to withdraw. Mr.. Bernard,
who was dressed for the part anticipation OF an
emergency, assumed Mr.. Lawreuces place. and the
opera proceeded. THIS probably terminates Mr..
Laurences connection with the company.
