1t will be seen from the advertisement IN
another column that this School will
open its next session on the 18th OF
September, next. The success which
has attended this Seminary during Its
first session may be taken as an earnest
of its success. We bespeak for 1t that
encouragement from Lutherans which
it so richly merits. Though not de-
signed to teach sectalianism, yet its
chief aim is to furnish a seminary in
which the daughters Of Lutherans may
be educated to their patronage, there
fore, docs it chiefly look for success.
Rev. J. l. Miller, well known in this
community as a successful and thorough
educator, is the principal Of this Semi
nary, who is assisted by large and
efficient corps of teachers. In the de-
partment OF music no better advantages
can be found anywhere. Prof. +. L,
Ide is acknowledged, wherever known,
as one of the best instructors in music
in the South.

an interesting discourse.

when the dog attacked her. The Dr.
attended to her injuries.
AS Henry c. Evans was riding thro
Leetown yesterday, his mtmd suddenly
SHE'D and drapi him unceremoniously
on the pike, near Mr. VIM. Heckrott 5
residence. Excepting q scratch or two,
he sustained no injury.
Some time ago colony Of bees took
lodging in the Protestant Episcopal
Church, near here. They found an
open space between the weather-board-
ing and the plasterng nearthe door and
commenced storing it with honey. One
day last week their laborS were inter
rupted by enemies, in the persons OF
Messrs. KiSncr and Lewis, who tore Oft
the siding and removed the sweetening
to the amount OF 80 pounds, much to
the CONSERVATION of the little workers.
What a splendid, ready-made illuSta-
ton the minister of that church has at

Some of the farmers hereabouts have
threshed their wheat, and the quality of
the grain proves to be very good,

not come up to the expectations OF the
farmers.

erage promises about half crop.
The hog cholera and chicken cholera

authorized Rev Mr. Leech to finish the
Lecture Room Of his church, with neat

! THE DEATH OF "TAD" LINCOLN
The death of Thomas Todd Lincoln,
Familiarity known to everybody in the
United States during the war as "Tad"
Lincoln, of the White House, occurred
on Saturday at Chicago. During the
occupancy of the presidential chair by
his father, Abraham Lincoln, Tad
kept the executive mansion alive with
his pranks and fantastic enterprises
The New York Tribune says:
In his boyish years he was idolited
by both his father and mother, petted
and INDUCED by his teachers, and iawa~
ed III on and caressei by that noisom0
horde of otlice-seekerS, which infested
the aute-rooms of the White House.
He had so much to do that he felt he
could not waste time IN learning to
spell. Early in the morning you could
hear his shnll pipe resounding through
the dreary corridors Of the executive
residence The day passed in rapid
succession of plots and CONNEXIONS, an@
when the President laid down his weary
pen toward midnight, be generally
found his infant goblin asleep under his
table or roasting his curly head by the
open rt-place; and the tall chief would
pick up the child and trudge oE TO bed
with the drowsy little burden on his
shoulder, STOPPING under the doors and
lodging the chandeliers. The Presi-
dent took infinite comfort in the chlds
rude health, fresh fun, and uncontrolla
Die boistcrousness. be was pleased 70
see him growing up in Ignorance Of
books, but with singularly accurate
ideas of practical matters. He treated
fatterers ana office seekers with Gu
lious GOODNESS and contempt, but no
often espoused the cause OF some poor
widow or tattered soldier, whom he
found waiting in the ante-rooms, AND It
was most amusing 10 see the hearty
little fellow dragging his shabby pro
tegeS into the executive presence,ordei.
inc the ushcrS out OF the way, and de
handing Immediate action from head
quarters. The President rarely refused
a Grace of this kind, and the demands
were not so frequent as to lose tn"
charm OF novelty.
Although still mere child at the
death of his father, this terrible shock
greatly sobcred and steadied him. His
brother Robert ut once took Charge OF
his education, and he made rapid pro
{ grcss up to the time of his sailing for
Europe With his mother. lie has ever
since remained with her, displaying
Thoughtful devotion and tenderness be.
yond his years, and strangely at VAR
ance with the mischievous thoughtIess-
ness of his childhood He came back
a short while ago, greatly improved BY
his residence abroad, but always the
same cordial, franz, warm-Acarted boy.
The cause Of death WIS dropsy on
the chest. The remains otthe deceased
were taken in special car from Chico
90, Sunday evening, TO Springfield, Hi
nois, for intcrmcnt in Ogkridge Gene
terry, beside the remains Of his father.
The funeral took place in Springfield
Monday morning, and was attended by
a large concOurse Of citizens.
