Our mild weather disappeared with the advent of January. It is said that high winds purify the atmosphere. We think all the impurities hanging around this place must be travelling rapidly to the south-east about these days. We are having fine sleighing with little snow. Wood-piles are growing. Many who have had a desire to burn coal have come to the sensible conclusion that an old-fash- toned, seasoned, hard wood fire gives greater comfort, a quicker, hotter fire, without the danger of escaping gas to the detriment of plants, birds. and human beings.
 The ladies recently held sociable at the house of Mr. B. Gilbert, ip the inter est of the sewing society. The dramas, charades, &c.,, prepared by ouryoung peo- pie, did credit to themselves and were high ly pleasing to the spectators. Refresh ments were provided. anI Q we'll filled grab-bag kept up the enjoyment till the small hours. About $40 were realized.
 The week of prayer was observed here with evening meetings which were we'll at- tended.
 A pleasant tune was had at the. dona- ton visit to MT. Bassett's, Wednesday evening January 13, and substantial gifts were left with the pastor.

We are having very fine sleighing with an unusually small amount of snow. We have been improving it in various ways, the only drawback to it's enjoyment being the cold weather. However, most people seem willing to endure the cold rather than lose the sleighing. Nearly all have secured their ice the past week. On Tues day the Parsonage ice-heuse was filled by several of the neighbors. !
 The third Dime Society of the season was held on Wednesday evening last at Mir. George H Crandall's; nearly ninety in attendance. The proceeds to be applied for Home Improvements.
 A regular meeting of the West Corn wall s. 8. Association was held in the Hall on Thursday evening and as usual much interest was manifested. The Hall was filed and the programme consisted of Sing ing, Readings and Recitations. The little ones particularly deserve much praise, and the part taken by them adds much to the enjoyment of the entertainments.

On account of stormy weather, Col. Nathaniel Smiths lecture for the 9th inst, was postponed until the 11th. His sub ject was ''The Relation of Birds to Farm ers, :" and Ahe lecture is said to be a good thing by those who have heard it.
 Otis J. Range, who is at the head of the Good Templar organization in this State, lectured at the town hall on the 18th inst. We think there is still need of ls- Dor among us Ill that direction, although our liquor dealers have only obtained li- cense.to sell legally.
 -Dea. Philo NJ, ,Trowbridge, who has resided here since 1899, died on the 11th inst, aged 64 years. He was faithful and useful in every. station he occupied but his chief object seemed to be the welfare of our district schools. Besides teaching many terms he was tine acting visitor dur ing the last sixteen years, and has accom- plished work for the good of our child ren and youth which Is gratefully remem- bered. His funeral was attended on the 14th by a large concourse of people, among whom were the teachers and many of the pupils of the schools in town.

 When our people start any thing. they continue it until the object for which il was originated, IS accomplished. This was trne in relation to the ISociables, which continued about year, and. few weeks ago, ended with a great meeting al the house of Mrs. ,MYron Norton Now we have the Goshen Literary Club, who hold their meetings every Tuesday even ing. All are invited to attend, and it is expected that they will each bring some thing to read. Last week our ministers wife .recited beautiful poem.

 we are glad to see the articles from the pen of your West Goshen correspondent, and hope he will continue to write. In his last he says that Miss Richards spell ed the whole class down, including the Acting School visitor. This same school visitor beat them all awhile ago in the same way, and told the young lady that evening that he reioiced in hero victory. Last week at the Academy spelling school. Albert Wadhams Esq. came off victorious.
