but in truth he treated of many things, in
illustration, and entertained his audience for
an hour and half We shall not attemp,
even an outline of the lecture, for the speak
er's utterance was rapid, and either the
acoustic Of the Church or the speaker voice
was al fault, and we failed to hear distinctly
much that was said. His general topic, how,
ever, was the principle Of self.relianee, which
he endeavored TO impress npon the attention
of the youth Of both sexes, theme which
cannot be too often presented to the conside-
ration OF the rising generation. The Bae III
Family were present. and rendered some very
choice selections. It's always a treat to listen
to these charming yOcalists

thought to have given a somewhat
lengthy notice of the school meeting
held on the 9Th, inst. but our space
prevents. However, the attendance
was large and after little discussion
in which the validity of title to the
school lots, and other minor points
were discussed the meeting ratified the
action of the previous meeting without
dissenting voice, and thus ended all
the blow and worry of a certain few
who are always certain things have
been done illegally. We presume Eb

Editor Reporter The lecture of
G. I. Wstter NJ. D. on MAN on the
Odd, before the DextervilIe Literary
Society was delivered in al eloquent
scientific and able mariner, and was
appreciated, the school house being
filled to its utmost capacity although
the night was fearfully bad. The snow
blew and flew, but still the people
came, and at its close all went to their
homes feeling well compensated This,
it will be remembered was the first lee-
ture ever delivered at Dexterville, and
was something new. l can safely say
the very general expression is that the
lecture was most excellent but too
short, showing most conclusively that
the audience were more than satisfied
with the experiment and we shall all
ways feel grateful to the DR.. for tho
kindness shown our people in respond
ing to their invitation to address them.

clearly and with much expression. A

was very finely rendered. Master
Charlie Compton recited 1.-The Hen
with one Chicken like little man."
A duett--Guitar and Either, by Messrs.
Schultz & Slocum was a feature of the
evening. A brief debate closed the
programme. On the whole the last
was the best session yet.

Ministerial.-Rev. J. w. Harris
has been with our people two weeks,
visiting among his old Pensioners and
friends, making all glad and we judge
making himself exceeding glad too.
The Rev. has delivered four excellent
sermons at the Congregational Church
the two sabbaths he has been here, to
good congregations. The society may
re-engage Mr.. Harris. A meeting
will be held this evening at the base
ment to consider the matter in connec-
ton with other business.
