Mr. NIoHoLsoNs LECTURE. A.
Nicholson, ESQ.,, delivered his lecture on
''Success in Life, in what it consists, and
how attained" to a small audience, in
the chapel of the Congregational Church,
last evening. The lecturer deserved a
much larger audience than was present,
and we think if the young men had
known what was in store, they would
have filled the chapel to overflowlng.
The lecture abounded in illustrations,
practical and very sensible advice, and
should be heard by every young man in
town. Mr.. Nicholson defined the ele-
ments of success in life substantially to
consist of right beginnings, perseverance,
economy, self reliance, and finally, if
you would attain the highest success, be
lust.

Late Markets.
CHEESE.

The receipts of the week at Boston
were 654 boxes. Since the list of Janu-
airy the receipts foot up only $500 box
es against II, $40 boxes for the first seven
weeks last year. The stock is small, and
prices are gradually working up, holders
now being unwilling to sell their best
lots at Tic per ID. Sales have been prin-
cipally in lots to the trade at 16@17c, and
there seems nothing to prevent the best
factory reaching 18c before April. There
is no change in quotations, but the mar
ket is firm, with an upward tendency,
and a growing scarcity of fine cheese.
The receipts at New York for the
week ending Saturday last were 1899
boxes, and the exports were $4,000
boxes. The cable was lis. Gold closed
at 1149, and the highest quotation for
cheese was tic. For the corresponding
week last year, the receipts were 10000
boxes, and the exports were 6, 818 boxes.
The cable was 70s. Gold closed at Ills,
and the highest quotation for cheese
was Tic. According to Wells monthly
circular of the London market, for Feb
ruary 1, heavy cheese sold at 64@70s.,
and Cheddar. of which there was a good
supply, brought 56@73s., according to
quality The Producers Price Current
says of the New York market: 81 he
feeling among holders is very strong for
the future they are, we think, acting
wisely in not forcing up prices, as this
would, doubtless, check the export de-
mand The finest grades are becoming
very scarce. The shippers are taking a
good many inferior cheese, which seem
to be relatively lower than fine. The
home demand is fair"
BETTER.
The receipts of butter in Boston for
the week were 5000 packages against
1924 packages for the corresponding
week last year. The market was quiet
during the week buyers not being will
ling to come up to sellers views, but IN
every other respect the situation was I'M
changed. Fine fall lots of New York
and Vermont are in light supply, and
firmly held at 36@38c. with sales at these
figures. Selections were taken at 800
40c per h., and sometimes shade high
er. Choice diaries, including summer
and fall made, range from 32@35c, and
fair to good at 25@30c per Id. On me-
dunn grades a little easier feeling was
noticeable early in the week, but at the
close holders were tirmer. a large per-
ton of the receipts for some weeks past
came from Canada, but we understand
that the stock there is now almost ex-
hausted and that very little more is eX-
pected from that section. Prime fall
lots of Canada have been selling at $40
SEC, and occasionally 37@3Sc has been
obtained, but Soc is the highest that buy
ers are willing to give. Choice Western
fall made is in light supply, and readily
commands 30@32c per Id. Common
grades are steady and sales range from
15@20c per III. The stock of inferior
butter continues light, and we hear of
no sales under 12c, and from that to 15c
was the range.

POTLTNET.

Washington's birth day was very APP
propriately observed by the citizens of
Poultney. A meeting was called at the
Poultney House Hall at 7 o'clock, on
the evening of the 22d, was fully at
and well conducted. The farewell adj
dress of Washington was read by Miss
Edna Sinclair, one of our best readers,
and excellent and timely addresses were
given by DR.. Newman, Rev. E. II. Ran
dali, and Dea. Joseph Joslin. Washing
ton was held up before the audience as
an example. His value as an example
consisted in his fidelity, his observance
of religious doctrines and principles, his
undoubted integrity, and his unwavering
patriotism.
The snow storm of Friday last was the
heaviest of the season. Full Is linches
fell in Poultney. A little more time for
charging wood piles, seems probable.

THE BARNAsEE CONCERT. will be
remembered that this excellent troupe
give concert at the Opera House, Mon
day evening, under the auspices of the
Young Mems Christian Association.
This troupe have, upon former occa-
slons, made a name and fame for them
selves which will be seen to Lave its in
fiuence, and give them a rousing house.
They have with them, on this occasion,
another great attraction in the person of
the renowned blind violinist, Joseph
Heine. The Folio, which IS a thoroughly
competent judge, says that, in its opin-
Ion, " Mr.. Heine is one of the surprising
violinist of the age. His style is thor
oughly artistic, his tone melodious and
full, and his information perfect. His
expression is that which results from a
deep understanding, and is full of feel
ing, tenderness and purity. He executes
with ease the most difficult passages from
Ernst, Paganini, and other composers,
and in a manner which never fails to de-
light his hearers. We think that Mr.
Heine is second to no violinist now liv-
ing. If Ole Bull is first he is not first
alone.
