lived, in the comfort of a reasonable
religion and holy hope and in perfect
charity with all mankind.

Your correspondent (this one) was
the recipient of single-geared, self
acting pump-a very valuable instru-
ment especially useful in this town.
We having no use for it ourself, have
carefully labelled it and sent it to the

This valuable gift came not from ST.
Nick, but sprang from the fertile brain
of an He Angel. IL

LEcTUREs.-TIle citizens of Sha-
lersville are to be favored by a course
of five lectures by DIR. Shepherd, OF
Cleveland, on the subject of his tray-
els. in Egypt. The Doctor is popu-
lar lecturer and his subject very in
teresting and instructive one. The
first lecture of the course will be de-
livered on Monday evening next, Jan.
8. Would it not be good idea for
our citizens to engage the Doctor to
deliver his lectures here, instead of
paying the enormous prices usually
paid to professional lecturers? BY
SO doing the price of admission can be
placed at such figures as to enable the
people generally to attend. y

The First Newspaper in America.
In Buckingham's Newspaper Spec
imensv we find that the first attempt
to set up q newspaper in North Amer
ica, so far as can be asceFtained from
existing records or from tradition,
was made in Boston in the year 1890.
Only one copy is known to be in ex-
istence, and this is deposited in the
State Paper Office in London.
Number one of this paper, and prob
ably the only number eyer published,
is dated September, 15, 1890. Imme-
diately on its publication the legisla-
tive authorities spoke of it as paInph-
let, stated that it was an act contrary
to law, and contained " reflections of
"a very high nature" They strictly
forbade anything in print without
license first obtained from those OFF,
GERS appointed by the government to
grant the same" The paper was
printed by Richard Pierce for Ben
janin Harris. Mr.. Pierce is said to
have been the fifth person who carried
on the printing business in Boston.
BENJAMIN Harris, who was the pro-
prietor of this, had printing house
in Boston in 1892, and in 1894 printed
the acts and laws of Massachusetts,,
and was printer to his Excellency
the Governor and Council" Harris's
commission to print the laws was in
the following words: se
"By his Excellency-I order Ben
jamin Harris to print the acts and laws
made by the great and general court
orassembly by their Majesty's prov
ince of Massachusetts Bay of New
England, that we the people may be
informed thereof.
WM. PHIPPs.
Boston, Dec. 16, 1892.
This is curious, interesting and i'm
portant history, showing that the adj
vent of the newspaper to this country
took place hundred and eighty years
ago.
