MARslFIELD.- evening the temper
ance meeting was held at the Congregational
church, and was one of the best we have had
The singing was excellent and all the exercises
were well received f. A. Day spoke of tie
interest that should be felt in temperance the
year round. We are often in doubt what to do,
hence do not always work in the cause as we
otherwise might Rev. G. z. Flanders spoke
Of this being the last meeting he would attend
in this place, and gave us good closing speech
in favor of temperance, Misses Forbes and
Dwinsll spoke Of the necessity Of laboring in
this cause, and the latter related touching
scene which had come under her own observa-
ton, and warned the young ladies never to
marry one who drinks. Rev. N. +. Cobleigh
spoke Of the necessity Of getting into the total
abstinence car which never runs of the track,
lie pictured two scenes-the one Of happy
couple starting forth with total abstinence, and
another couple starting forth with only slight
deviation from the path Of temperance ut first,
and the different results. A few new names
were added TO the pledge.
There will be considerable sugar made in
town this week

VILLAGE HALL.-Let it not be forgotten that
the important question Of improving our VII.
lage Hall accommodations comes up for de-
cision to morrow Thursday evening 1t is a
matter in which all are more or less deeply in
teres,ed, and the subject should be met in tina;
spirit Of fairness and candor which becomes
all good citizens. That something should and
must be done, is apparent-the only question
being, as to the expediency Of rebuilding upon
the old site, or purchasing a new one. few
years since, when like necessity was upon US
the present Hall was purchased and fitted up,
and that too within the estimates, if we mis-.
take not,-and it has not only done US good
service, but proved a wise investment. And We
believe a similar course now would prove the
wisest possible disposition Of the matter. Let
prudent and reliable committee be raised, will
power to procure an addition TO the present
site, and expend not TO exceed given sum ia
the erection Of new Hall, and we firmly be-
leye that all the reasonable needs of our vii.
lage for the next fifteen or twenty years may
be provided for, and that without unduly add
ing to the burden Of our taxes Above all, lei
all our people turn out, and not only keep cool
but charitable.
