his name for accommodation of his friends on
commercial paper. Several times he had to pay
the debt till at last he found his farm too small

for larger field in the West. The Citizens Band
serenaded him last Monday evening and the
house was full of friends and neighbors wishing
him hasty good-by. It is the wish that the
balance of Johns life may be happy and pros

LAST Sunday evening President Hinsdale. de-
livered the third of series of lectures upon the
Catholic Church, its tendencies and its attitude
toward the public schools" After the course is
completed here, they arc to be repeated else
where until the October election. or until the
politicians get we'll warmed into the campaign
so we are informed. This arrangement is in ac-
cordance with the instructions issued n few weeks
ago by John Sherman. The clergy throughout
the State to set the religious political ball in
motion. and the politicians will keep it up. The
lectures thus far arc a rehash of the Catholic
scare four years ago. with a trfing variation. It
does not seem probable that the people can be
again humbugged upon that question. rs. since
then. the Democracy have taken charge of u ma
jority of the States. and have possession of the
Legislative department of tho general Govern
mont. and the Pope has steadily refraincd from
interfering in any manner with our politics, and
the whole Catholic clergy have. as heretofore.
wholly ignored politics. and the great Demo-
cratic party will in the future. in the past
steadily maintain. nourish and defend our school
system. the creature of Democratic brains. and
legislation against all assaults whether from
or from the phamplets of President
Hinsdale.
The past week has been one of unusual maple
sweetness and those engaged in the manufacture
have improved the opportunity. Mr.. J. j. Ri
der. had at one time u surplus of four hundred
barrels of sap. with evaporating facilities of one
hundred bai rels per day. running to their full
capacity. He has two thousand trees running.
The frogs have given two concerts and We
sincerely hope they will not be interfered with
more than the traditional three times.
Mud is abundant in all our highways. save one
which at this writing is still blockaded in places
with snow two feet deep BY actual measure.
