The lecture here week or so ago by
Rev. Edwin DIbbell, under the auspices
of G. A. r. was upon one OF his best sub
jects-ConversatiOn He sat out with the
statement that his hearers might think it
much too long, hut as there was no such
thing as pulling out the tares without the
wheat with them, he chose to give it just
as it was. Copious extracts were given
from scholars and authors, eVincing much
research and retentiveness in the scores Of
good things that were so appropriate and
happy in conception and adaptation to the
subject.
Director Hammond has moved from his
farm on the lake shore, to his new house,
near the south part Of the village of North
Kingsville. He is now rapidly recovering,
and is expecting social times with those in
clined to take advantage of the fact that
his latch string is always out.
Many man in this community who
was offered 30 to 40 cents per bushsl for
his potatoes last fall, is now getting them
out and asserting the defective ones and
getting for the balance 90 cts. a bushel,
an illustration of the new silver dollar
compared with the old that counted 100
cents. Such is life !.
''Lu Lu Falls Cemstery," Is so named
from the stream winding its way through
narrow valley or gorge along the south
east skirt Of the grounds, leaping or roll
ing over the decline which marks its cnurse.
This valley isstudded with svergreens, and
the banks rough and precipitous. A bee
has been called with teams, plows, scrap
ers, mSttocks and whatnot. A beginning
was made on Friday last, obviating these
difficulties and the cutting of a road or
drive way. The time is coming when this
romantic spot will be a resort of interest
and pleasure. Its gorges are to be spannsd
By foot bridges, and generous donation
Of timber has been made by Mr.. P. N.
Whelpley for that purpose. Other schemes
are on foot for adding to its attractions.
The Parish block embraces various in
dustries and pursuits. Kinnear & Curtiss
have put an addition upon the rear, whore
the manufacture of tin ware, etc., is to be
carried on, while the main floor is to be
used for the post Office and telegraph Office.
The upper floor is to be occupied in
great part by George Champion, in the
boot and shoe trade, which with the office
of Esq. Wright for dispensing equity and
justice, and the hall of the G. A. R. Boys
fills the bill.
The middle term examinations of our
High School took place last Thursday and
Friday.
The following attained an average of 20
and upwards-100 being perfect.

Rebuilding.

The Ashtabula Loan Association has ac-
copied plan for their new bank building,
one submitted by Mr.. Gilbert, who is in
the employ of the Williams Bros. 1t is
for two bodybuilding, of brick, with an
entrance on the northeast corner. 1t is a
very tasteteful design and reflects much
credit on Mr.. Gilbert's talent as an archi-
tect.
Mr.. Sloan is preparing plan for Mr..
Newberry's building, which will be an
ornament to that business point-the cor
ner of Main and Center streets. This
building will also be built of brick, but
will be three stories high and 105 feet deep.
The first so feet will be occupied by Mr..
Newberry as drug store, and the rear
will be divided into two stores, with en-
frances on Center Street.
The plan of DIR Kings new block we
have not seen, but we are informed he in
tends to erect a brick of two stories.
Mr.. Morrison has decided not to build
at present, but when he does we expect to
see him erect a building equal to any of
them.
The work of exeavating on Mr.. New
berry's lot has commenced and the masons
will soon be at work. The Loan Assoc.
and DR.. King will commence work at an
early day.

The Temperance Lecture of Rev. Mr..
Stafford, at the Opera House, on Friday
evening last, was a rather comprehensive
and thoughtful affair, and shows how
much cowardice and dishonesty there is in
the treatment of this subject. Allusion
was made to what has now become rather
thin, the treatment of those W no are Of
Tending against the better interests OF So
,ciety with such tenderness, as not to ex-
pose them to the penalties of the law. The
question may well he asked, if sauce for
the goose is not sauce for the ganderP
Tney-saloon keepers-resort to combina-
lions and all the fnessing Of law to protect
and intrench themselves, and why should
not the friends of temperance, when moral
persuasion fails, also seek the aid OF lawi
The lecturer seemed to be an advocate of
that old method found to be the most
wholesome and the most effectnal-make
a judicious use of all the influences and ap-
phances at hand for hampering and
squelching the evil. Why should temper
ance men spend their efforts in eulogizing
saloon keepers, when it has been proven
by the Murphy movement, that soft words
butter no parsnips, so far as cor
recting the evil is concerned.

Our friend who directs the lightning
and generally takes an earnest hand in
manipulating the democratic party, is
quite philosopher, and receives his de-
feat in very good-natured way. He says
the TELEGRAPH treated their fellows with
lenity and tendsrness-rather more than
they deserved. OF course he was not dis
posed to say very much about Bascom'S
grocery, and the sustainin influence it
had upon the boys, but We thought he
was half disposed to express himself about
those leaders we had occasion to allude to
the other day, and their like, as pretty
heavy back load for any party to carry.
The symptom was not little encouraging
that the dirty listed, had their day, and
hereafter the more decent men OF the par
ty, were to be found in better company,
and that corporation affairs would be en-
trusted to men who had some interest in
the public welfare beyond the traf-
fic in beer and whiskey.
