yCrrr1y TEMPERANCE MEETING Sum-
dow evening the exercises and addresses were
aesioned for the entertainment and profit of
49,, children. Invitations had been extended
- them through the teachers of our Union
..hool. which were accepted by most of the
children of the village.
The meeting was conducted by MIR. Joseph
p.Jand. who made some very excellent re
MARKS to the children, and in a DEPRESSION
.roLe very acceptable words of encourage
,aont to the older portion of the audience,
Rev. j. E. Wright addressed the children
- some length, on the suitable and needed
rreparation for the responsibilities which
tbev must soon assume.
The possibility of turning this great tide
% ir+emnerance, or rather of drying the
-.-oor, at its source, lies with the children.
Rv showing how easily the boy manages his
.lod az he top Of the hill, before it has gain
i ;rorotus in descent. Mr.. Wright showed
how a harmful practice before it has become
s-ol habit. can be broken of-the safe
,r,- in downward course, being always 10
,t,o bet5rs one begins. There is but little
bore Of saving those who have acquired and
long Welded to the appetite for drink but
let every boy and girl always refuse to touch,
taste. or handle intoxicating liquors, and in
. few wears our country will be free from
this great sorrow and sin.
The chairman noticing the entrance oil
Rev Dr. lord, invited him to give few
words towards the evenings entertainment.
DR.. lord complied with the request, but not
knowing 1--WE presume,) that the meeting
was especially planned for the children, adj
dressed himself to adults. Fearing his words
rpioht iostle somewhat the tone of the meet
inr he thought it wise to suggest to those
who differ in opinion in regard to the means
=, he used in this work of reform, an inter
change of courtesy, instead of criticism
sreaking of legal measures, DR.. Lord COM
mitted himself and all law-abiding citizens
to the duty of sustaining the prohioitory
law so long as it remains upon our statute
b,oks bat still believes when the RICH
moral power is brought to bear upon intem
neraDce. neither law or sheriff will be tounc
a necessary force for its removal.
Mr.. IL. C. Lull addressed the children
briefly, also pointing to their future duties
urging them through familiar illustration t.
keep in time-neither the slow time of tn
past, or the reckless haste of " fast " time
but the well-rogulate1 time of temper at
AMI true living.
Mr.. L. W. Jones spoke of the duty o
PARENTS to carry before their children a
example of total abstinence from all that cal
inrozcate.
4 temperance song was sung by five youn
girls. and warmly applauded by the audi
encc.

road Of its length In the country The

Mr. French, the experimenting Director
went to Troy last week, where there has
been some delay on the part of the iror
mlnufa ,turers in furnishing rails. While
on the editorial excursion, we noticed a fine
train of sixteen platform cars of this road
waiting at arlington for the iron. This /:
obtained of the Griswolds in Troy, and abou
five hundred tons is now on its way and eH

to press it will be upon the road, and tn
work of laying the rails to Plainfield will b
soon done. The switches making conneC
ton with the Connecticut & Passumpsic roa
are laid at Wells River, and it is eviden
that Mr.. French is using every effort to driy
things, and is meeting with the success tina
his energy and earnestness deserve.

The work of constructing the road is bein

An article on Alaska, that appeared in til.

An article on Alaska, that appeared in the
London Globe, is noticed quite extensively in
American papers. The writer thinks it was
a shrewd stroke of business buying Alaska,
because we get perhaps $350,00O revenue
from the islands of St. Paul and St. George,
mainly from the seal fishery. He argues
that there are many more islands, and so
many times this revenue can be obtained.
The fact is the seals frequent in numbers
only, these two islands. The purchase does
not pay the interest nor anything like it; it
was about as dull trade as could have been
made; and left US more than ever out in the
cold
The excitement about the presence of
cholera at Memphis, Tenn, is increasing.
