ORWELL,

Friend Reed-Allow me 10 say through
your excellentpaper that our citizens have
recently been favored with two very in.
teresting and instructive lectures. The
first BY Rev. Mr.. Peet, of your place, the
other by Hon. s. A. Northway. do not
propose to give a synopsis of these Efforts.
but will simply say that every village in
the county eegld not do a better thing for
its people, young and old, than to secure
q repetition of these lectures, and other.
from gentlemen whose services NAV he
readily obtained, Or young people need
quletng and stimulating to higher purpos-
es than the mere qualification of presen,
pleasures, and l know of no way so &C.
cessible as bringing them frequently in
contact With the best minds In the county
and vicinity.
The lectures here, by gentlemen from
abroad, ara secured through the lnstru-
mentality of the school, and will be con.
unued from term to term. The next one

Eagleville is a hourishinR town. with q
mail route from Jefferson, the county seat
twice day, and the prospect of a depot
The new mail route brings US the ISsnti-
mel the day it is published; before, it came
Friday morning, via:A., Y. & R.R.
Our depot will not be q union depot.
We learn that the railroad company. has
borrowed one of Eben Tuttle's sheds, and
are going TO put stove in it, to keep us
warm and shelter US from the storm. The
citizens darkly hint that if the shed is fit
ted up, we will never see a new depot; but
rail roads will have their little jokes.
The people of Esgleville, took advant-
age of the good sleighing, Tuesday, the Sd
inst, to hold their annual donation, for
Rev. s. W. Streeter. They met at the
house of Mr.. Fl. Henry, and passed pleas
ant evening. had generous supper from
loaded table, and hsnded $50 in cash to
their minister. We heard gentleman re-.
mark that he should like to have 'em
come to his house."
A Lyceum Is held every Wednesday
night, where little boys the size Of grass
hoppers get up and give their chlrp, and
the grown Up men debate all the impor-
tant questions of life, and usually decide
in the negative. The young ladies edit
papers, sing, and speak pieces.
There are also other attractions, a music
box. jews-harp, mouth-organs, violins,
melodians. Everybody goes to the Ly-
ceum.
Eagleville has fine mill-pond. a grist
and saw mill, post Office, two blacksmith
shops, two shoe shops, cheese factory, a
church, school house, and a: water tank.
The fare from Ashtabula, is 85 cents; come
and see, and you will be shown aFaund
