in all things. He breaches once in two
weeks. Some of our schools have begun
and by next week all, or nearly SO, have

the field. Our enterprising landlord has
added billiard table, where all lovers of
the game can have a place of resort and
to spend their loose change. At the pres
ent time there is no Temperance Society,
