Aten & Marshman, proprietors of the
great furniture store, on Main street, op-
posite the county Jail, inform us that as
undertakers, they have added new fea-
ture to their preparations. They now
have a full assortment of burial robes, or
shrouds, which they can furnish very
much lower than they can be manufac-
tured to order. They have them for both
men and women. In addition to their
cheapness, it is a great convenience
when persons are in trouble, to get such
articles ready at hand.

NEwEL-Cora Eta, daughter of A. ]. and
Frances Newell, departed this life Friday, July
2 1875, aged years, months and q days.
She was fair as the budding rose, the pride
and pet of her parents, and loved by all who
knew her. But often the fairest flowers fade
soonest, and He that said, suffer little children
to come unto me, took her to himself, to be an
angel of light. Many friends join in sympa.

The picnic at Kahn's Grove last Thurs
day was very pleasant affair. There
was very large number of persons in
attendance all day. The assemblage in
cluded persons from old age down to
small children. The day was clear and
pleasant, not very hot. We went at one
o'clock, and remained until four. We
learned that there was an abundance of
dinner, taken in baskets, and there were
barrels full of ice water. A platform had
been laid, and the young folks who de-
sired to do so amused themselves by
dancing. Several parties were engaged
in the game of croquet some were anus
ing themselves in a swing, while others
were pitching quoits, etc. We saw some
playing cards, and others engaged in So
cial talk. The jackson Band furnished
music. We never learned to dance or
play cards, and our ignorance in these
matters is bliss. The modern mode of
dancing appears to US to be extremely
silly amusement, and card playing more
SO. The old mode of dancing is far pref
erable. California" Jones danced an
old fashioned jig, which was the most
interesting feature of the day. Itelicited
rounds of applause.
This picnic was a social gathering
which was as free from anything improp-
er, as is to be seen where there are so
many people of all classes, and we think
it had a tendency to make life more
pleasant, and our people better.
