A Home 10 he Desired

Mr. EDiTon Permit NC TO express
sentiment, which your readers will un-
doubtedly pronounce orthodox.
The necessity and disturbances, for
every family to own aud control a
"llcme," is truth Of vast and untold
importance. There is among all classes,
we are happy to know, a growing feeling
in this direction. Every year onlarges
the proportion of pleasant homes, to the
population, in Vermont. 1t is so through.
out New England, and in much Of the
older portions OF the west and northwest.
This is one of the fruits of modern refine.
ment, aud christian civilization.
A man Of family, owning no home,
is annoyed with feeling OF isolation, and
detachment, very uncomfortable to en-
dure. On the other hand, being the alb.
solute proprietor of a beautiful and lovely
home of moderate cost and pleasant sur.
roundings, he possesses a source of true
and solid comfort, not elsewhere found on
earth.

SITES, OR LOCATIONS.

A village distinguished for high
standard of christian morality, and edu.
cational facilities, has attractions of no
ordinary estimate. The social privileges,
and advantages to be derived from such a
state Of things, is not to be estimated in
dollars and cents. The site Of home,
to man or woman, who loves romantic
scenery, to family possessing tastes and
capacities for its enjoyment, and who
chooses to practice proper economy il
their mode Of living, is all important. 4
choice site avoids the crowded street,
the pent.up, limited, and narrow aspect,
where every sense is offended, especially
that Of slght--wi'h little open sky-no
distant horizon, tiuged with the glories
Of the dying day or rising morn, no grassy
lawns, or waving trees, or majestic noun.
tain peaks There is true wealth aud
aflluence in choice site, combining both
country and village life. To be within

and post Office, aud ct removed from the

streets, arc considerations Of no slight OF
triling importance.

Dr. DiO Lewis.

The Chillicothe Register thus
sharply rebukes the attempt of the
Cincinnati Enquirer and some of its
satellites to cry down DR.. Lewis as
50 quack":
1t is rather queer argument that
because a physician lectures on tenn
perance for pay, that he is therefore
a medical quack. Cough lectures on
temperance for pay, but we do not
know that that makes him literary
quack or affects the strength of his
arguments. Ministers are paid for
preaching, but does that detract form
the force of their sermons, or imply
that their hearts are not earnestly
engaged in their work? Thousands of
soldiers received pay and bounty
for their services in the late war, but
that did not make them the less
patriotic.
Dio Lewisis o man of brains
has more of that article than hun
dred of the 'Smart Aleck" puppies
who are keen to raise hue and cry
against him-and it is not expected
of him that he give his time for
nothing and pay his own expenses.
If his services are of any use to those
engaged in the cause, they are worth
paying for to a reasonable extent.
Mr.. Lewis will soon visit this city
and deliver a lecture, when our citi-
zens can form their own opinion of
him.

MARSHALL, Feb. IA, 1874.
The good citizens of this tp. being
thoroughly aroused to the great
work, which now demands our at
tention, viz: the Temperance cause,
appointed a meeting for last Sabbath
afternoon, at the NJ. E. Church in
Marshall, for the purpose of organ
izing an Association, to be known
as the Marshall Township Temper
ance Association.
At about 8 o'clock a goodly num-
Der having assembled, the house was
called to order, and VIM. Fl. Griffith
was chosen as chairman, and Thomas
Dick was appointed Secretary.
After some appropriate remarks
by Mr.. Joseph Wickerham of
Sinking Springs, and some others,
paper was circulated, and most of
the people present put their names
down as members of the Association.
The following named ladies were
elected officers:
President-Mrs. Susan Redkey.
Vice President-Mrs. Rebecca Pat
ton.
Secretary-Miss Ella Walker.
Treasurer-Miss Ada Patton.
Corresponding Secretary-Miss
Julia NJ. Templin.
An Executive Committee of five was
then appointed, to attend to the
working of the Association.
1t was decided to have prayer
meeting as often as once a week.
The next meeting was appointed to
be held in the Presbyterian Church,
on Sunday, the 18th of Feb, at 8
o'clock P. M.

MONEY PLENTY.-The New York
Tribune of Saturday, speaking OF
money matters in that city, says:
Money was very abundant, and a
heavy market is anticipated within q
few days. Loans were freely made
at 4 per cent. yesterday, and the
prophecy of a prominent banker,
that there would soon be three per
cent. money market, is generally ac
cepted by the brokers as fact soon
to be demonstrated. Indeed, loans
were made yesterday at 8 per cent.

mand for those which have defaulted

with which Wolsey served the King.
Now that temperance order of which
W. Fl. Harry was member had their
Hall just above my place of business.
And oftentimes did Harry, with an
"armful" of the fair ones, visit me in
my business rooms (books, station
cry, etc. }, and plead with me to join
their band. Their presence and So
icitations finally 'tgrew" on me, and
became detrimental to my business,
which sorely tried me. They didn't

and handled and soiled my
goods and store, and yet I never got

ever issue illegal proceedings" o,
