A fair audience attended the Theater last
evening to listen to Miss Lillian EdgartOn'S
lecture on Gossip, ftsnCauses and its Cure
She divided her subject into four different
branches: the malicious, the curious, the
pretty and the calumniOus gossip. She pointed
oubhow people, especially women, goSslpped
about their ~neighbors when they had little or
nothing else to do, and would wonder and ex-
press their sentiments why Mrs. SO-and-So
was able to purchase spring chickens in Feb
ruary. while her husband Income was net so
large as that OF the individual whom she
termed her liege lord. Miss EdgartOn rapidly
sketched the various kinds of gossip, and par
ucularly pitched into the Lady Sheer
wells and the sir Benjamin Back
bites OF society. In fact, the lady
made out modern society to be a regular
school for scandal. worse than when Richard
Brinsley Sheridan penned the finest comedy
in the English language. After speaking OF
the petty gOssips OF society, she adverted to
the ul-bred custom OF young men standing
round church doors when the congregation
was leaving the sacred edlnce, and eagerly
criticising the bonnets Of the ladies end SO
much of their pretty feet rs like little mice
peeDed in and ont from under their dresses.
Taking up the portion OF her sub
ieet, she pictured in glowing language the
manner in which, Oftentlmes, the fair
fame Of many a young lady was taken
away by some silly Top, whom the
lady had snubbed for some impertin-
ence, limiting, in covert terms, hat she
was no better than she should be, which was
by several light-brained but equally
malicious ~slanderers, until people actually
began to think that where there was so much
smoke there certainly must be some IRE.
Such were the ways by which regulations
were often destroyed. Miss EdgartOn thought
the cure for this state OF things was a better
system of education than now prevailed. But
the latter portion of her interesting lecture
lost much OF its effect by the wearied manner
in which IL was read; and, in fact, the talented
lady seemed really to be reading n race against
time. On Monday evening she will deliver
a lecture on " Marriage and Divorce "in Little
Rock, when a grand intellectual treat may be
expected.

The republican town clerk, Gordon Robbins, is
elected by 2S1 majority over Levi Woodhouse
democrat, who has held the office for
several years. The republicans have
majority in the board of selectmep
in matters OF registration of electors. Two of
the selectmen and one Of the assessors elected
were on both tickets. All of the repub

The republicans chose the former by hand

The Latest Political Sensation.
a New Secret Organization.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 7.-Ihe Democrat gives a
lengthy account OF a secret political organiza-
ton called the American reform party, informa-
ton Of which was derived from gentleman
holding high office in its ranks. The report
says that the organization was first formed in
1867, but had only a feeble existence, being con-
fined to a few eastern states, until the New York
riots Of 1871, when it broke out anew After
that agents were sent through all the states to
form nucleus Of the American reform party and
now the organization Families through the whole
country, The principal features of their plat
form of principles are the declaration that
Americans shall rule America, nevertheless per
sons born abroad Of American parents and for
eigners, coming to the United States when under
twenty years of age should be entitled TO all the
rights and privileges Of native born citizens;
that no person should be selected for political
station, whether native or foreigner, who recOg.
nizes any allegiance or obligation to any for
egn power whatever the unqualified
recognition and maintenance of the reserved
rights Of the states, nor interference by con-
gress with purely state questions, opposition to
any union between church and state, and no
interference with any religious faith or worship,
and no test oath for office; a thorough investi.
cation of all alleged abuses Of trust by public
officers and strict economy in the public eXpen-
ditures; enforcement of all laws cOnStitutiOnally
enacted until they are repealed or declared void
by competent judicial authority; that all chill
dren are entitled to an education at the public
expense free from sectarianism, and that there
should be no division Of school funds for other
than school purposes. The party claims to
have already Influenced some elections in the
New England states. The position of the party
is not aggressive but defensive, the object beinr
to defend the laws and principles of popular
government and compel every man in this coun-
try to be an American.

nationalities and religions and only asks that
that they shall be Americans in principle and

The second day OF the fair opened bright and
pleasant, and the attendance was very large, being
estimated at $500. Extra trains were run on the
Fitchburg, Vermont and Massachusetts, and Athol
and Enfield roads, all of which were well filled
The races, which were the great attraction of the

exceeded that of the day before, and fully hour

tied variety of good things. The president OF the
society, William b. SpOOner called the audience to
