The March bulletin of tho Society of st.
Vincent de Paul, announcing the death of
Baron Charles Dupip, says:
The Society of st. Vincent dc Paul has just
lost, in Paris, one of its most signal benefac-
tors, tho Baron Charles Dupin; and we are
only discharging debt of gratitude in recon-
mendins him to the prayers of all our Con-
ferences.
Baron Dupin had never been member of
our Society; but when, in 1861, it was attacked
in France by government measures, he exam
had satisfied himself that the charges brought
against it were untrue, he boldly and energetl-
caily undertook its defence In the Senate, of
which he was member, He proved that the
doctrines and rules, was never engaged in
politics; on tho con trary, It was devoted OK
clnsiyely to charity, and always came to the
cealed purpose. He nlnnfdlly contonded agaipst

The ably written letter Of W, r.

County. favoring the selection of
Hon. John Lctcher as the conserva-

invites comparison Of views as to
the most draildble candidate; and in
that light | take the liberty of adj
dressing your numerous readers, for
the purpose Of fstating what ''kind of
a man" would be most available, ia
my humble judgement,
First-I would not be willing to
vote for dny man who entertains the
same opinion ia relation to the sub
jects of the Public Debt and taxation,
held by the present executive of the
State.
Second-I would not be willing to
vote for any man who favors the impo
sition of capitation tax of two dol
lars, and makes its payment necessary
TO confer upon a citizen, the right to
vote.
Third would not vote for any
man, whose interests would prompt
him to favor the imposition of heavy
taxes on the people Of Virginia.
Fourth would not be willing to
vote for dny man who believes that
the Legislature can bind the
people hand and foot. and sell them
into slavery for thlrty-four years.
Fifth would not be willing to
vote for G1ly man who will not opens

senator Greever.

Among the important propositions
now pending in the Legislature oi
Virginia, there are none of more mo-
ment than that which relates to the
leasing of the convict labor in the Pen

serves more careful consideration by
Legislators.
If the recommendation of the Hon.
Senator from Smyth, General James
:. Greever, with the clear, forcible
and convincible arguments as deliver
ed by that gentleman, or the floor of
the Senate chamber, on the 23rd jan
uary, '73, should prevail, we are conf
dent of a thorough reformation in
prison management. both as relates to
criminals, as well as to that of the in
terest of the State at large.

The Lecture.-A good audient

The Lecture.-A good audience
greeted Rev. r. NJ Webster at the NJ.
E. church, last Tuesday evening, on the
occasion of the delivery by him of the
first lecture of the home course. The
evening was not propitious, heavy
wind prevailing with flying sleet, max
ing bad walking, and certainly a most
uncomfortable night for pedestrians
The lecturer chose ''Darwinianism" as
his theme, reviewing as fully as posi-
BILE, in the brief time, the theories Of
the renowned scientist The lecturer
conceded to Mr. Darwin the strictest
honesty Of purpose in his endeavors to
inaugurate new systems of belief rela-
tive to the 'origin Of species" and the
descent of, or, more properly speaking,
the origin of man. The speaker pre-
faced his remarks with a brief biogra-
ply of the man whose startling theories
have created so much discussion, and
awakened so much thought throughout
the civilized world, and while he could
neither fully endorse his conclusions or
accept as truth his philosophy, he &C
knowledged his masterly scholarship,
and stood before him as before man
of profound wisdom and erudition.
The speaker believed the evolution
theory to be fallacy, and ignored the
idea that man could have sprung from
the lowest species of the animal crea-
ton, which, as natural sequence, must
bring man forward in the scale of adj
vancement till in coming ages he should
become God, rather than an emanation
from the Divine hand. Mr.. Webster
produced, in our opinion, several excel
lent arguments to substantiate his be-
lief. and the belief of the orthodox
church, viz: The Deluge and the in
junction to Noah to gather into the ark
pairs of the animal creation, that they
might propagate their species after the
waters should have subsidized and the
earth be again peopled; also, the re-
demption theory-why the need Of a
Redeemer, if man had never fallen from
his high estate, which never could have
been if the theory of Mr.. Darwin be
correct.
We are sure the audience were enter
tanned, and feel that the home course
of lectures is to become a success. At
the close of the lecture, Mr.. Cassiday
was elected President of the organiza
ton, and notice given that the second
of the series would be delivered at the
Congregational Church on Tuesday eve

Grand Rapids.-A hasty trip to
Grand Rapids did not give us much
time to look around, but such few
items as we we're enabled to note we
give. The place has improved much
the past season. Many new stores and
dwellings have been erected and we
believe all of them are occupied TIE
disaster of low water in the Wisconsin
affected the place sorely, financially,
and, together with the want of snow
causes some dullness, but not to seri-
Gus extent. Were it not for the mon
ey distributed over this section by the
G. B. & L. P. R'y Go. it would be
dull here this winter indeed.
The Foundry and machine shop of
Messrs. Robb &. Rablin has all the
business it can do in building engines
and mill machinery. 1t employs II
fnch and two more are to be added.
Another lathe has just been put in.
The building erectd by them for saw
factory has been rented to Messes:
Butler & Smith, of Green Bay, who
are putting in the machinery for a
planning mill. The saw factory has
been moved into the basement of the
machine shop. At present they do
nothing but gum, straighten and re-
pair saws, but next season will COM
mence their manufacture from the
plates.
The County Board of Wood County
last week took important. action on the
railroad bonds voted by the county.
1t was voted to deliver the bonds to
the G. B. & L. p. R'y company and
to deposite the $4,000 on hand in
the treasury in the bank to pay the
first years interest on the bonds. It
was then voted to destroy the 500, 900
bonds Of the Madison & Portage Rail
road Co., the time for the construction
Of the road to Grand Rapids having
expired. The question Of destroying
the bonds for $50. 900 issued in aid of
the Wisconsin River Valley (Tomah)
road came up but was not acted upon.
We suppose the county will be willing
to aid other roads, however, when it
is certain that they will be built.
Right here is the point where it is APP
propriate for us to gently nudge some
of our Grand Rapids friends in the
ribs and remind them that they told us
last spring that the Greens Bay & Lake
Pepin Railway would be the third one
to reach that place, if indeed it ever
got there, which was doubtful
We found the Rablin House full Of
guests and Mr.. Freeman giving good
satisfaction. He certainly treated our
party royalty and we have never found
man dissatisfied.
The Roche House is also full of Gus
tom We looked in there and found
everything pleasant and agreeable.
We found Mr.. Philleo, Of the Wood
Co. Reporter, and his. co-workers, in
Guiding Mr.. Brundage, engaged as we'll
in dealing out pills, drugs, dolls and
toys as in dispensing mental food, and
had good chat with them. Green
