We are led to these remarks

to a certainty that business awaits

winter might result.
While we rejoice at the near ap-
rroach of better times, experience
has taught us that 1t is best not to
betoo sanguine Of success, and to
loo well beforemaking a changethat
might be from bad to worse. To

Mr.. Buckley delivered his lecture on
"The Evolution Of Races" last Friday
night at the Town Hall.
The speaker preceded his lecture with
the remark, in substance, that although
he had lived in this community almost
lifetime, he had never appeared to a
Somerset audience before. as lecturer,
but once, when quite young man;
and the recollection thereof was attend
ed with some modification and embar-
rassment, as it was q complete failure on
his part. In this connection, we beg TO
congratulate him on his success in his
second appearance, as it was all and
more than his friends bespoke for him.
The lecture gave evidence of study on
the part of the speaker-his theory be-
ing supported by history and fact, and
presented in a style so attractive that
every one manifested the deepest inter
est. The hypothesis presented did not
lack proof, although from the nature of
the subject, the speaker was compelled
to abbrieviate important matter for fear
of making the lecture too lengthy; or, as
he termed it, he was mot so much at a
loss what to say as what not to say"
Mr.. Binckley's style as lecturer is
exceedingly happy in language appro-
pirate, graceful and copious. 1t is sell
dom our community has had the oppor-
tunity Of having such an intellectual
treat, served in style SO attractive; and
what is exceedingly satisfactory to the
writer, the lecture was universally appre-
ciated.
On invitation, Mr.. Binckley agreed to
continue his lecture tonight friday,
when it is hoped he will again be greet
ed with a good house COLUMBUS

DIED,-Suddenly. in Somerset, Satur-
day morning, Feb. 18th, 1873, Cornelius
johnson, Aged 80 years. The subject
of this notice was a colored man, who
came to this place April 1st 1874, and,
opened barber shop in Magruder, Block
on the Public square. He-was prof.
cient in his profession, and by his genial,
happy tempnament and disposition, and
strict attention to business, made friends
of every one who became acquainted
with him. 1t is truly said of him that
he kept the best regulated and conduc-
ted shop ever established in the town,
and that widtom exception, he was the best
colored man that ever lived in the place.
His sudden demise cast sadness and gloom
over our whole community. The cause
of his death was pronounced Apoplexy
by the physicians who were called in to
attend him. The last seen of him in
health was on Friday night about 10
o'clock at which time he extinguished
the lights in his shop and retired to his
sleeping room. Between 5 and o'clock
on Saturday morning. Mr.. Whitmore,
whose store is Immediately under the
sleeping room occupied by the deceased
was alarmed by hearing moans and loud
stertorous breathing in the room, and he
proceeded up stairs to the door, which
he found locked on the inside, all efforts
to arouse the inmate by calls or noise
failed to elicit any response and ladder
was procured and placed at one Of the
front windows, through which ingress
was forced, and poor johnson was found
covered up in his bed totally unconsci-
Gus, in which condition he fingered I'M
til 81 o'clock when death claimed his
victim. We learn that the deceased
was held in high estimation as a man
wherever he was known. On Tuesday
night he was to have Joined the colored
Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons in
GAINESVILLE. Let US hope that he has
been admitted to membership in the
Celestial Lodge in the spirit world. We
