Easter Sunday at St. Peters,


The Easter Sunday services at st. Peters
Episcopal church, conducted by the Rector,
Rev. DR.. Moore, were Of more than usual
interest this year, and were largely attend
ed. The floral dispaly was very beautiful
and appropriate, prominent among which
was a cross sent by Mrs. A. H. Washburn,
of Cleveland, widow of the late Rev. DIR.
Washburn, who was one of the victims of
the Ashtabula bridge disaster. 1t was com
posed of hyacinths, tea rose buds, hello
tIopes. etc., and occupied conspicuous
place near the pulpit.
At $50 o'clock an afternoon service was
held in which the Sunday school children
took prominent part. The members of
St. MichaeI's Memorial Mission Sunday
school from the Harbor, and the scholars
of the Cross and Crown Mission (Ndiss
Kings SCHOOL, taking part. There were in
all about 200 children, who marched into
the church by twos, accompanied by their
teachers, singing an appropriate carol.
Each scholar carried flowers and as they
marched by the chancel they we're dropped
into a floral font. The service then fol-
lowed composed of prayer. singing. of carols
by the children and an address by the

Eds. Iel:-We had an equestrian per-
formanee few days ago, on Main street,
entered into by a couple of horse men from
east and southwest OF us mile or two each.
They were abreast of each other at the
crossing from A. B. Luce's to Barton's
store, where evidently the saddle glrth OF
the eastern chaps horse loOsened, and in
turning he went over his horses head, and
fortunately becoming disengaged was un-
harmed. The horse, however, went on
with saddle reversed, provoking some fear
full kicking, in its breakneck pace out of
town. The breaking Of a few necks, and
the rivalry of eonstableS may yet be con-
sidered merciful interpositIon in our be-
half towards preserving the peace and ord
er we so much cherish.
Our election day served US well in the
ordinary peaceful selection of officers for
the coming year. The choice, as given in
your last, is probably as well, take it all
around, as we need ask.
Mr. Frank Luce, we learn, is arranging
for the opening of drug store in the Null
lett Block. opposite the Union House.
We made call this p. m. on Mr.. Ed.
Hammond-having learned that his all
ment had assumed new type-that heart
difficulty was entered largely into his
troubles. Our first view of his pale face
told too truly of his changed condition.
We would fain hope, however, that as the
warm weather come on that he may improve
upon his present condition. G.

HARBOR,

The deposit of ore at the HarbOr is much
less than it has been at any time since the
shipment began. The A. s.. p. docks are
nearly clear with the exception of that be-
tween the slip and creek front, and the
L. s. docks are also nearly cleared.
The work upon NJ M'Kenzie's contract, con-
sidering the character of the weather, has
been pushed along with great vIgor. A
considerable area is now ready for the
earthwork, the stumps have been grubbed
out from the high ground directly in the
rear of the Belknap place, and the. pillow
was put in on Monday last preparatory to
hawling. 1t is run down-with an Oblique
track-the lTecipitous face of the hill, and
passed under the treStle work OF the coal
chute. The dredging of the 200 feet slip
has been begun but the progress, at the
fOrepart of the week, was not very appa-
rent as the excavations had been upon the
approaches to the line OF dock and mostly
under water.
The A. & P. begun this week the work
of filling the marsh nearly in front Of the
station, which we understand is to be en-
tirely filled. The face piling of this com
pany's dock along the creek front has
reached its upper termination, and gives
the beholder some idea of the extensive ad-
ditions to the dock facilities of the COM

Iley DedTs
For the payment of these bonds at ma
turity and the annual interest falling due,
it will be necessary for the Council to levy
tax Of two mills on the dollar, which will
be ample to meet the requirements of the
case.
Under the action of the Council some
three years since, a police was placed on
duty here and at the Harbor, numbering
four men during the summer months and
three during the winter; at cost to the
tax payers of about $500 yearly. The
amount levied for the payment of this force
during the years of 1876 and 1877 was in
sufficient, and there was a gradually IL
creasing deficiency, until in December last
the Council, finding that there was no
funds to pay, dismissed the whole force.

"A business call upon Mr.. John B. Rice,
at Kingsville, last week proved a very
pleasant and bospitable affair before its
close. Mr.. Rice is plain, quiet, intelli-
gent farmer, and his impulses are all of
the right kind. As you become acquainted
with the man you admire his qualities and
realize something of the same feeling for
him that is so general with his neighbors
and friends. His lady is in no way behind
him in impulses of intelligent and generous
hospitality. The suit in civil damages that
has been instituted, Mr.. R. has very little
uneasiness about, as it is understood that
Mrs. Anger, who is nominal plaintiff, has
rather yielded to the wishes of attorneys
against her own judgment, and is strongly
disposed to have the suit Withdrawn. No
one acquainted with Mr.. Rice believes for
u moment that he had any design in the un-
happy affair that has brought him so prom
inently before the public. He has just sold
one of the best farms lying between Ashta-
buls and Connesut, on the south ridge, a
little west of the village of Kingsville, of
over one hundred hundred acres for 50, COO,
to Mr.. John Gates, and is now ready for
the purchase OF another. Some of the ad-
vantages of buying near Ashtabula were
laid before him, and not without hope that
he will take ii look this way for location.

10y cordially invite all friends of the cause
throughout the county to be present with

has been but little interest manifested in
these meetings out side Of Jefferson. The
District Superintendent visits us, the cItl-
zens Of jefferson and a few delegates from
other townships, look after the interest of
the bible in the county. This ought not
to be. In accordance with new arrange
ments at the Bible House, New York, no
books will be sent to county or township
societies until paid for. No paid agents
will be employed. These and other new
features demand our attention. 1t is earn
estly desired that the township bible socie-
ties be represented in this meeting. Town
ships not organized into bible societies, will
please Oe represented by the pastors of the
churches or lay delegates. Friends OF the
bible, let US rally around our standard, and
may the future be more successful than the
