The following was deferred one
week:
AS our village has for a long time
failed to appear In your columns, al
low me to resume q long (but not
willfully) neglected duty by furnish
Ing few items.
Though for long time silent, AttI-
ca has continued TO plod along, keep
ing up her usual show OF thrift and
enterprise. Much has been sdded to
our village in the way of improve
ment within tho last few months.
Numerous new structures, both pri.
vAte and public, have been erected,
most of them Of both the tasty and
substantial order.
Mr.. Moltz, with his characteristic
energy, has, since Aug. 1st, built and
completed three new dwelling houses.
He has also laid out a square OF very
desirable building lots for the accom-
mediation OF those desiring to pur-
chase.
The new business building of Mr..
Huffman Is completed externally, ,and
presents one Of the most tasty fronts
ln our village.
Mr.. Boyle has sold half interest In
his building and furniture stock to
Mr.. Geo. H. Rice, and the new firm
are engaged in the erection Of new
and commodious salesroom adjoining
their present shops. Messrs. Boyle Il
Rice are gentlemen OF responsibility
and energy sufficient to insure sue
cess In any enterprise that they may
attempt.
The plats OF our village, and the
several additions thereto, are being re-
vised, and the lots are to be renum-
bered SO that all shall have but one
consecutive series OF numbers. This
Is something long needed, as the sew
eral additions had been numbered in
dependentIy, and as q consequence,
the real estate duplicate OF our village
has become very badly mixed.
The new cemetery has been survey
ed and plated. aud the trustees an
nounce their readiness to accommo-
date all who may desire to purchase
lots.
The members OF the Universalist
church have recently had the walls Of
their church room tastsfulIy papered
and the wood work grained and var
nlshed, greatly adding to the general
appearance OF the same and speaking
highly of the taste and enterprise Of
the society.
Three OF our villagers left on Mon
day last for the vilds OF Putnam
county to engage In hunting. They
went duly equipped with guns, pouch
es and TASKS and We are now living
in the hopes of soon enjoying q sur.
felt OF savory Yenison, &c. at greatly
reduced prices.
A fire company Is being organized
here and our Htzthers" are delibera-
ting upon the propriety OF getting the
boys an engine. By all means let
them have IT, aud let it be q good one.
Attics has been remarkably fortunate
on the fire question, and while thus
lucky it is but proper that we should
prepare for 3 misfortune TO which We
are every day liable. We say, get the
machine, and while upon the subject
We would urge upon our council the
necessity Of procuring for foreman Of
said ccmpany the invaluable services
Of our townsman who appeared upon
our streets the other day blowing deaf
ening blasts upon eabbaged "fish
hornp and believing, "fresh fsh,n at
the top of his stentorian voice to the
great annoyance and disgust of all
Eorder-loving citizens. Surely the en-
terprising youth should have, at the
hands OF the community, some recog-
milton Of his worth, especially since
our worthy marshal seems to have
entirely failed to do his doty on that
occasion; some inconsistent people
felt greatly Inclined to grumble at
the anhayanre which surely was
slight when compared with the SEEM
Ingiy huge qualification tie harmless
Indulgence gave HIM, and who knows
but he may have been desicOus of ad-
vertisiuS I,sa sulepdId natural eaDacf.
ties for the eIlIing of professional auc-
ti0neer.
Notwithstanding the general pres
sure in money matters, the business
Of our village does rot seem to have
suffered In the least, and our business
men all seem to be driving . good
trade, and mechanics and labOrers
have an abundance Of work.
VENICE.
