designs for adornIug and beautIfyinS their

the condition OF their patrimony. Every
home should he made more beautiful every

Jane, Peak. at his store, one door east OF
the City Hotel, keeps nothing for sale but
secondhand goods. We ask all such to take

Th. lecture committee OF the library as-o-
citation are in correspondence with several
prominent lecturers. They propose hlSIng
a course of lectures extending through the
winter, one to be given before Christmas If
the new ball i completed in time. The two
first Oh the list are Theodore TiltOn and
Mrs. Susan b. Anthony, who both have
national regulations. We do not yet know
the subject of Mr.. TIitOn's le ture, bat
whatever it il his well known sloIuence and
fire VIII make it interesting. His tour
through this state and Kentucky last winter
was a triumph to his genius rs lecturer, a.
despite all prejuiices immense crowds
everywhere greeted him. and all who heard
him praised aim highly. Mrs. Anthony is
an earnest advocate OF the advancement OF
the condition of her sex. and her lecture,
