 Tie veteran lecturer, s. M. Hewlett. has for sometime purposed visiting friends in this place. but the twelve miles staging to and from New Milford are great obstacle to man whose time is valuable, and have hitherto deterred him, but he is finally ex pected to come soon. and when he comes the people may count upon nearing such a lecture as they are seldom favored with in this locality. There is scarcely city in the Union where he has not spoken. The Wilmington Journal says, s"In 1S42, Mir. Hewlett and Mr. Gough mounted the rostrnm:" For many years after that pc. riod, he labored arduously and successful ly in the Temperance cause. but latterly, his lectures have been on various subjects. The Chicago Journal recently said of him: : "He is u fine lecturer ,and adds to'a fine ad- dress and cultured olocution, most re- markable faculty of uctiuga story even to the finest touches of mimickrg." h'.,l
 The New York Hsrald says, $.
