Mr.. ]. J. judy The exercises consisted
of Iaughable and entertaining recitations,
comic and amusing dialogues, plentifully
interspersed with vocal music. The pupils
performed their parts well, although most
of them were quite young Conspicuous
among the actors were Miss ReIla Branen,
Miss Alice Parrett, Miss Ella Lanum and
Miss Mary Lease; also, Beecher Parrett,
Oscar Branen, Curtis and Mack Lanum, H.
Bryan, and quite anumber of others. They
all acted their parts we'll, and deserve
praise, as they were all quite novices in
performing never having taken part in an
exhibition before. Many Of their pieces
were instructive as well as entertaining.
The vocal music was led by Mr.. Judy, as
sisted by Miss Alice Coffnan, Miss Emma
Orr, and Mr.. E. PurneIl.. Pnpils and
teacher appeared to strive to entertain and
please their audience, and think all, un-
less it was the over-fastidious, were both
pleased and entertained.
Among the audience were quite num-
Der of the parents of the pupils, giving in
terest to the occasion by their looks of
pleasure. Altogether the exhibition was
quite success, is the opinion of

A Falling OFF.

In the Mayors Monthly Report to Coun-
cil for February, on Monday evening, after
stating that for that month there was nc
money collected on arrest, or on execution,
and that no cases were submitted for ex-
animation, he says:
'It would be pleasant could we persuade
ourselves that this falling off of business in
the Mayors Court is in consequence of a
triet=observanee- of the laws. But this is
not so. The observation of every citizen
satisfies him that every day of the week
including Sunday, the laws are violated
with impunity. This should not be, and
would not occur so continually, but for the
neglect of the Marshal. Some six weeks
since this officer discharged his only eff
cient assistant, since which time the reve-
nue. of the Mayors Office has dwindIed tc
nothing
"Of course the approaching election fol
municipal officers has no influence ovel
this state of things, yet it is curious thai
just at this time no law is violated in oul
yiIlage!'

SUGAR GROVE, March I, 1872.
EDITORS HERALD:-Although the read
ers of the Herald are generally entertained
by political news and other matters of
more or less importance, yet I thought a
few local items might not be wholly de-
void of interest. The particular topic, es-
pecially among the younger folks of this
neighborhood, for the past few. weeks, has
been the exhibition at Sugar Grove School
house, which came off the 18th Of Febru-
ary. And as the 29th of February only
comes once'in four years, Old Dame Nature
concluded to celebrate the occasion by q
snowstorm during the forenoon, which no
doubt deferred some folks from being al
the entertainment; but notwithstanding the

Northern Pacific Railroaa BOND.

As an investment security combining the
two great requisites and profit, we
know of none equal to the above, of what
ever character. Government bonds, in
viewsof their negotiability, are considered
the most convenient, railroad bonds the
most profitable, and real estate mortgages
the most secure. It is the peculiar featdre
of the Northern Pacific First Mortgage
Land Grant Bonds, which are now offered
in this market, that they combine the ad-
yantages of all three classes of securities
In the first place, they are real estate
mortgage on over fifty million acres of the
most valuable lands in the North west,
WORTH at the lowest estimate, three times
the amount secured. In the second place,
they are first mortgage on the great
Northern highway to the Pacific, which
possesses incompatible advantages over
any other transcontinental line And,
lastly, they will be as negotiable as Gov
ernment bond, their introduction upon the
German and English markets having met
with favor that gives them distinct value
in any money market in the world.
In addition to all this, they bear a higher
rate of interest than any other first class
security, and are sold at very low price,
which is liable to advance at any moment.

- Old prejudices are dying out. New
facts are killing them The idea that in
valids weakened by disease can be relieved
by prostrating them with destructive drugs,
is no longer entertained except by mono
maniacs. Ever since the introduction of
DR.. Walkers Vinegar Bitters, it has been
obvious that their regulating and invigor-
ating properties are all-sufficient for the
cure of chronic indigestion, rheumatism,
constipation, diarrhoa, nervous affections,
and malarious fevers, and they are now the
standard remedy for these complaints in
every section of the Union.
