cEEDINes, &c.
The citizens of Dover had quite treat
last night, in lecture from Olive Logan;
subject, "The Girls" About 400 were pres
ent, mostly the elite of the town. She por-
trayed the difference between young girls
who depend upon their beauty alone for
husband, and hestrong minded girl. She
divided her lecture into six parts-from the
girls in their teens until womanhood. She
strongly recommended them to cultivate
their minds and health and not depend
upon apparent beauty, dress and family ties.
She also hit the young men some heavy
raps about dress and affection.
During the course of her lecture which
lasted about one hour, she made many
happy hits at the young of both sexes She
was much applauded by the audience.
Richard Harrington, Esq, in defence of
young Beauchamp, in the assault and bat
terry case, displayed much energy, and at
times, was very eloquent. Richards efforts
thus far at his native place seems to be we'll
