THE CONCERT.
The performance of the "OratOriO
of Esther, the Beautiful Queen" by
about sixty of the ladies and gentle
men of Republic, under the direction
of Prof. Harman, at the UniversaIist
church, on Tuesday evening of last
week, and the repetition Of the same
on Wednesday evening, were n deci-
ded success. The characters all sUs-
tanned their parts so well that it is un-
necessary to particularize. The first
performance gave great satisfaction,
but on the second evening the pro-
gramme was executed in 4 still more
finished style, and gave still greater
pleasure to the listeners. On each
occasion the house was well filled.
MEETINGS.
Arrangements have been made by
which there will be preaching every
Sabbath afternoon at the Presbyteris
an church, by Rev. D. S. Truckenmil-
Ter, of this place. The first service
under this arrangement was held on

Preaching at the Baptist church

half-past six O'Clock P. NJ, every al
ternate Sabbath, by Rev. H. Hall,
Pastor.

copal church, and at the Albright

OYSTER SUPPER.
There is to be social gathering at
the Town Hall on Friday evening,
January IA, at which oysters and 9TH
er eatables will be served-the pro-
ceeds to be applied upon the balance
due for the new bell designed for the
Presbyterian church. A subscription
paper is in circulation for the same
object. The bell is n fine one, and
should have been paid for and in its
place long ago.
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS.
Parties who are able to carry out
what they talk, have under advise
ment project for erecting one or
two brick blocks, on the ground made
vacant by the great fire of last sum-
mer. 1t is hoped that no obstacles
will be thrown in the way of such de-
sirable improvements.
HYMENIAL.
About two months since, a young
gentleman well and favOrably known
about here, left town very quietly, and
it was rumOred, had taken his final
leave to find a home and a fortune
elsewhere. Little was known by the
public generally, where he had gone
or how he Jared, till New Years day,
when he returned-but not alone.
The following abstract from a docu-
ment which he brought with him,
tells the whole story: uFfl fTsIIi
