Quite q number of natives of the far
of.lands of Sweden and Finland have
been on our streets for a few weeks past.
They have been employed On the A. Y.
& P. r. R., and are almost universally
temperate and peaceably behaved.
New Years Day was unusually live
~ in this place. Contrary to years past,
the air was quite warm, consequently the
streets were crowded with sleighs. In
the evening Blind Toms concert attract
ed a number of visitors from the sur
rounding towns.
The Presbyterians of Braceville
have consented to let the Disciples occu-

that arrangements will be made for the
permanent occupation of the house by
the Disciples. Elder H. H. Bartlett will
begin a series of meetings there on FRI

Mr.. Samuel King, of this place, has
been a prompt paying subscriber to the

day he paid his subscription for the fifty
seventh year. We think that Mr.. King

longer time than has any other person
living. We hope he may live TO read it
many yesrs more.

Olive Logan delivered her lecture
entitled Successful People," at Webb's
Hall, on Monday evening last, to a large
and sppreclative audience. This is the
latest Of the several lectures this lady has
written and delivered. Having heard
her on several occasions during the past
-four years, we thought a decided i'm
iprovemsnt was manifest in the temper
and sentiment, and also in the style of
presenting this lecture, as compared with
some Of her other efforts. The audience
sat webb's Hall was evidently much
pleased and highly entertained with the
rather taking AMI in which Miss To-
gan says the many fine things she has so
elegantly grouped together in her lee
tire.

several years to attacks OF an affection
of be an. but On the day Of his death
saemed as well as usual, and had par
taken Of di.1ner heartily. He stepped
into the door. yard and had commenced
TO shovel q parkway in the snow, when
his father -in-laW Judge Ratlif, OBJ
served him to drop quickly on to the
