a LECTURE on CUSTER.

John L. Taylor. Esq, has prepared lee
ture on "The Life, Services and Character
istics Of Gen. Geo. A. Custer" which he
will probably deliver At the court house Oh
Tuesday evening. 18th inst We have been
permitted to examine soma Of the advance
sheets of Mr.. Taylor's lecture. and presume
II Is all revised by this time. From what
We have read of 1t, We teel satisfied that
those Of our citizens who hear II, will be
edited. pleased and interested. After de-
liverlng this lecture In Yanktop, Mr.. Tsy
lor proposes to 60 east with the double
purpose of being benefited in health and
attending to personal matters. No bstter
or more exciting theme for an interesting
lecture could have been chosen than the
lecturer has happily bit upon In this in
stance. Gen. Custer was known personally
to many of our citizens, and had earned .
reputation as soldier of high chivalric
bearing and desperate bravery. He was to
our army what Ashby was to the confederate
Murat to the French, Lord Cardigan, to the
British and Skobeloff to the Russian army
"a dashing cavalryman, whose record was
always as bright as the flashing blade he
welded so heroically. We trust Mr..
Taylor's effort will be appreciated by the
public. and We believe he can write and
speak intelligently of the experience of such
a man as Custer, having been cavalryman
himself during the rebellion. In one Of the
many engagements in which he participated
with the gallant I'd Iowa cavalry, he re-
ceived injuries of a permanent character,
which incapacitated him for the more vigor-
ous work and duties of life. Having fought
for his country, he should be encouraged in
any honorable endeavor., "P."
