There has long been geeat and unlvefs

is now being supplied by The Nstionn
Publishing Co., of Philadelphia, who have
issued handsome volume styled me
Centennial History of the United States,
bv James ID. MeCabe, well-known his
torieal writer. This work will undoubeed-
IL. take rank as the Standard History OF tns
limited States. 1t is no dry mass OF de-
tails-no bombastic effort to inhame tht
national pride. but is clear, VIVID and
brilliant narrative of events of our history
from the discovery of the American CONT
nent. down to the present time. 1t traces
the evidences of that mysterious race, the
first occupants of our country, and gives
most interesting account of the Indians OF
North America, from the time of the COM
inc of the white men. The voyages OF Co
Inmbus. the explorations of the different
nations of Europe and final occupation and
conquest of the land by England, are told
with graphic power.
Every step of our colonial history ID
traced with patient fidelity, and the sources
of those noble, and we trust, enduring IN
stitutions which have made our country
free and great, are shown with remarks
BILE clearness. The causes OF our greas
struggle for Independence are told with
logical force and ability unsurpassed IN any
work of the day. Then follows clear and
s,,ccinct account of the formation OF the
FaderaI Constitution; the establishment or
the Union; the course of AFFAIRS untl lns
breaking out of the Second War with En-
GLAND. and full and comprehensive ae-
eount of that War and its results HE

The author pleads the cause OF no Parg

1t is comprised in one large, handsome
octave volume of 925 pages, and contains
442 fine engravings on steel and wood OF
historical personages and scenes Tns
price is SO low that all can afford to puf-

Death has been in our midst, claim
ing for his victims three of our oldest
citizens. The first was Mr.. Benjamin
Borden, aged 5S years, who died Jan.
31st. He was born and raised near
where he died The next was Mrs.
Nancy Lindsey, who died Feb. 4th,
at the age of 76. She had raised
numerous family, several of whom,
with her husband, bad preceded her
to that better land. She had been q
member of the Nj. e. Church since
early life, lived consistently and died
happy. The third was Christopher
Henderson, who died Feb. 5th, aged
IS. He bad been a member of the
NJ. E. Church from youth. He was
a quite, unobtrusive man. He let
his light shine before the world, and
the valley was bright as he passed
through. He said to a friend Just
before he died, "All is clear But
they are gone, "and their works do
follow them" Not much sickness
at present. Our mud roads are almost
impossible. A good time to talk
turnpike Railroad excitement on
our southern border. The farm
known as the home farm of Isaac
Greathouse, senior, was sold to Mr..
Vance. We welcome him to our tip.

HARRY FROM CARMEL

We are now enjoying an excellent
protracted meeting and looking for
good results. The attendance large,
the interest deep, the order splendid.
The whooping cough has become
general, and in some cases rather Sc
we're. Wet weather and bad roads
keep business very dull. The Fox
Chase was success. Four were
caught. Public enterprise made a
splendid dash. If q few such iber-
al and energetic displays were lavish
ed on our muddiest roads, we could
then bring to your town a two-horse
load, without the aid of sac horses,
and we would not need to blush
when we were asked if we lived in
Rainsboro. Railroads and most 9th
er interests are laid aside. Seldom
have we seen such zeal manifested.
We feel grateful to Hillsboro for
keeping our whisky twig at rest.
Not one drunken man have 1 seen
since the protracted meeting com

The Protracted Meeting here men
toned in my last, closed with six
teen accessions to the Methodist and
seventeen to the Christian Church.
These, with two who united with the
Presbyterian Church in your town,
make thirty-five in this community
who have recently joined the Church,
and indications are that others are
"almost persuaded" to be Christians.
Protacted meeting is in progress
at Rainsboro, but with what inter
est am not fully advised Have just
heard that the meeting at Prospect
closed on Friday night last, with per-
haps fourteen accessions. Schools
in this part of the county are closing
their winter sessions. That taught
by Fl. N. Patton (No. II, Paint tp)
closed last week; Ferguson's (No. 2,
Liberty follows in a week or two.
Reveals (No. 13, PAINT completes
his term this present week.
Heard that there were forty six ap-
plicants for teachers certificates last
Saturday (mostly ladies' and as there
were perhaps thirty-seven certificates
granted at the previous meeting of
the Board, is seems that truly the
laborers III the educational fields
will be many, but, we fear, that the
harvest will be-few.
While upon the subject of schools
1 wish to suggest to the Elk Com.
of our Institute, that the pro-
gramme for the next session, espec-
tally that part relating to subjects
proposed for essays and discussion,
be made out and published soon
Would be pleased to have last falls
corps of teachers re-employed; also,
to have the Institute held during the
last weeks in August.
