We see it stated in the Boston papers that
Mr.. Charles II. True, formerly connected
with the Portland Evening Star" and more
recently with the "Sioux City Republican, -
is supposed to have been burned to death in a
prairie fire which swept over his farm short
time ago. Mr.. True was well known in this
vicinity, and has relatives residing in this city.
He was a son Of Josiah True of Litchfeld, in
this county, and married daughter of the
late Thos. j. Davis of West Farmingdale
For several years he resided at Augusta, and
for several years acted private Secretary
for Gov. Cony or Chamberlain, perhaps both,
| and was a man of fine abilities as a writer and
of more than ordinary business capacity. His
wife, who for several months has been visit
ing her relatives in this vicinity, recently re-
turned to the West to join her husband. No
confirmation of the report has as yet been re-
| ceived by his friends here, and we trust the
rumor Of his death may prove upfounded.
The skatists are still improving the ice re-
juvenated (the ice of course,) by the rain of
Tuesday. Several ice boats were out on
Wednesday, skimmng along with the veloci-
ty Of the wind, and running races of apparent
fearful hazard, though when one once enters
into the excitement the pleasurable emotions
drive all fear from the mind. We speak from
experience.
We understand there is to be an old fash
ioned ''tea party" at Wilson Hall on Tues
day evening next, when "baked beans, brown
bread" and other luxuries will be added to
the tea arrangements, the whole to be varied
with an "Old Folks Concert" tablaux, etc.,
etc. Whether some of the tea saved at the
time OF the Boston tea party century ago is
to be used on the occasion we have not been
informed; but at any rate a good time gen.
orally may be expected, without regard to ex-
pense!

P0stponement OF Public Library Gift
Concert,

1t will be seen by the card Of Gov. Bramlette in
our adv. rtising columns, that the Fourth Gift Con.
cert of the Public Library Of Kentucky, announced
for December 3D. has been postponed until March
3lst: The reasons for this postponement. which no
doubt had already suggested themselves to the
public mind. are clearly and succinily stated by
Gov. Bramlette. They are, in brief, the financial
troubles throughout the land the yellow fever epi
demic in the South, and the general impression
prevalent that these causes would compel the post.
ponement now announced. Notwithstanding these
drawbacks the result has certainly been surprising.
The manager now has exceeding million of dol.
lars on deposit in the Farmers and DrOvers' Bank,
and, althOu.h a hal: drawing Was practicable, yet
it was deemed more satisfactory to have a short
postponement, and thus secure a full drawing.
The business of the Office the last few days has
been simply enormous. Upwards of 2 800 letters
per day have been received through the post-ofce,
and ON Saturday nearly one hundred thousond dol.
lars In cash were deposited in bank. On yester-
day, 1876 money.packages were received by express,
and III registered and over 600 other letters came
by mail, containing in the aggregate considerably
over one hundred thousand dollars
That the pOstpOnement will be generally approx.
ed and that it will result In fun drawing March

cur at the time named may be regarded as certain
