Phillips Gilbert Hamerton, in his
admirable paper on intellectual Life, "
TINS talks to the man who stopped
his paper"
newspapers are to the civilized
world what the daily house talk is to
the family they keep our daily in
terest in each other; they save us from
the evils of isolation. To live as q
member of the great white race that
mas filled Europe and America, and
colonized or conquered whatever ter
ritory it has been pleased to occupy;
to share from day to day its thoughts,
its careers, its inspirations, it is neces-
sary that every man should read his
paper.
Why are the French peasants Sc
bewildered and at sea? 1t is because
they never read a newspaper And
why are the inhabitants of the United
States, though scattered over q ter
ritory fourteen times the area OF
France, so much more capable of con
certed action, so much more interested
in new discoveries of all kinds, and ca.
pable of selecting and utilizing the
best of them? 1t is because the news.
papers penetrate everywhere, and even
the lonely dweller ON the prairie or in
the forest is not intellectually isolat-
ed from the great current Of public
life which flows through the telegraph

the line of march was taken up, and

that veteran minstrel of the martial
air, Riley Walker, and his band in
terspersed with enjoyable renderings
of some of our most popular Sunday
School songs by Prof. Taylor Martin
and his choir; with flags and banners
all ahoat, the people all repaired to
the grove. There the day was spent
in feasting and making jolly, and
such feasts of good things and such
jollification let those who expert
enced it tell. Let those who know the
hospitality of the good people Of that
vicinity speak. Addresses were made
by Revs. WATSON, Price, Haldeman,
and r. ii. Dolliver, Esq. Everything
passed off pleasantly. Baseball, GRO

entertainment. 1t is proposed to have
