ID. u. S. Hall whe has been enjoying
1 few weeks respite from business. sith his
fsusilr. in this place, started On his return
= saginaw. on Wednesday morning last, in
eompsny with DR.. Hubbard. as faras Put
inlay. where the annual meeting Of the
Ohio Medical Society is being held, and the
sessions Of which both expect 70 attend.
An invitation to share in the privileg-
es Of the occasion Of observing the 150th
anniversary Of the Congregational church Of
Wilton, Ct, has come to hand and awAk-
ems = thousand pleasant memories and as
sociations Of early life. Strong yearnings
are felt to be present. but it can hardly be
in spirit, we can, however. send the hearty
sentiment-God bless Wilton Church
Mrs. Manchester. and her sister Miss
Sarah Alvord, left AshtabulA on Wednesday
last for n. York. having rented their a
house. and expecting to be absent for some
length Of time. During the season Of the
Centennial, they viii make Philadelphia
place Of residence, until satisfied with the
exhibition. The homestead having been
rented BY Judge Lee, for the balance of
the year. possession viii be taken by him
and family upon its vacation.
Last summer the steam barge Havana
took party of excHrsionists from this
harbor to Erie. This was an act that is
contrary to the Q. s. laws, as the Havana
had not the necessary papers. &c. TO allow
her to carry passengers. The Z. S. author
ities having been informed Of the action
.of the Havana on this occasion have in
structed the collector Of customs Of this
port to find out who paid their fares on
this trip. Farther derelopraehis will un-
doubtedly soon be made.
"A civil and militay set to came off at
Ste5bins' store last Saturday morning in
which the weapons used though carnal,
were not Of the regulation order. Fists,
boots and whips settled the account, in
what might, perhaps. be considered draw
game. John Collins represented the mill
tary spirit and J. K. Stebbins the civil.
Stebbins and horse figured on the ground
when the ARTILLERY squad were firing the sa-
lutte over the nomination, on Friday eve
ming, and were ordered Out Of the way.
Sharp words followed. the remembrance Of
which brought the parties together in the
morning, with the result stated. The
trouble all seems to have arisen from
failure to appreciate that horse.
The reader has not failed-probably-
to read Wanamaker & Browns adver-
tisement Of that immense clothing firm in
Philadelphia. Like the Centennial EXPOSE
tion it is too large for easy comprehension.
Beside Oak Hall, described in our columns,
the firm has two other establishments in
the city, one devoted to the best styles for
the city swells, and the the third on the
corner Of Market and Seventh streets, which
in extent of area surpasses both the
Others. 1t embraces a sales room and
manufacturing department. We we're as
sured that it covered Tsn area Of ever two
acres. Every thing is on the most consul
mate system and method, marvel of quiz
etness, foresight, mechanism and economy,
conducted on the strictest integrity and
principal. Mr.. Wanamaker is a Stewart
in his way; but unlike his prototype, his
soul is imbued with love of his kind, and
his great energies and means are used for
the good of his fellow men. Our friends
bound to the Centennial should not fail to
see this concern and learn its facilities, and
examine its prices.
