THERE has been good deal of talk about establishing a literary society in Tue son, and we are bound to say that much worse talk might have been, possibly has been, indulged in. Itwould not cost much to rent and fix up a room and supply it with papers, magazines, and some books. The room would be pleasant resort for strangers and many residents. Our people generally could meet there and exchange views on questions of public and perhaps Of private policy. A friend of ours suggests that such a society might pay much of it's expenses by a course of lectures by learn ed and local orators. And his suggestion is not without point and entertainment, if acted upon. There is hardly a town of any size in "this great and glorious Unionn that has not it's literary society and some have religious societies. The lat ter are not necessary anywhere, or there would be more of them, but the former or a public reading-room is almost indispen- sable in every well regulated and pro- gressive community. We have no doubt but some of our owners of buildings would rent one for such a purpose at fair rates, and we can be counted on for a fair monthly contribution, and we harbor no doubt but 50 to 100 others would not be out done by the liberality of newspaper man. On this point, we'll not be dogmatic but stand ready to witness an attempt at dem-
