DEBATING Soc1ETY-Winter is again al
most upon us, aud with its long evenings must
naturally come the looking around for some
manner in which to make use of the time.
/, Concerts, soirees. exhibitions, etc, are de-
'lsed aud carried into execution for The amuse
ment and entertainment Of the community !;
but willis, these are all good in their place,
we lack sumething higher and nobler. We
watt good debating society--a field Of ac>
ti"u where the mind may be trained to higher
and lnftier ideas. and truth arrived at by the
medium of the fair and free discussion of
questions worthy of publicse Reconsideration
Surely Charlcstown, with its array of local
talent. ought tn and will furnish ample una
terial fur large and thriving literary society
All that is needed is for some one to put the
ball in motion. An effort was made last
winter, but too late in the season to accnnl>
plish anything; this year, however, we are
10 ample time. Let meeting of our lawyers
and others be called, aud immediate action on
