| A. f. SEMINARY S0IREE.-It has been o
long time since we enjoyed as pleas ant an
entertainment as much as we did the oiree
| at the Augusta Female Seminary on last
| Saturday evening. 1t was arranged under
| the superintendent OF Prof. Hlntz, and
was credit even to one of his reputatio ion.
| The programme was composed of choice
| selections and every piece was rendere in
the most pleasing style. The choruses, par
| ticularly THE Blue Bells of Scotland" and
| "The Banks Of Bonnie Doom" were sung by
as sweet, harmonious voices az one often
softly as did the music of the rippliug wa
tiers which awakened the poetic fancy OF
Burns. The organ solos by Miss l.. Hill
and Miss Fl. Woodrow showed that the fair
learners had been faithful pupils OF a
faithful teacher, and the piano renditions
BY Misses Z. Wexford and NJ. Woodrow
were as musical as any strains VIII ich
| supple fingers Can extract from those
mystic keys. The account Of Jimmy But
ter's adventure with the Owl was given by
| niios Do1oSh III SuOu sOuuiuC LiiSu UIOku6
that, but for her appearance, one could east
| ly have imagined her fresh importation
from Erin, instead Of missionary's daugh-
ter from those far-olf isles of the Pacific.
"The Red Jacket by Miss Bayless, showed

Other accomplishments that rare and most
desirable art,-good reading, while ''The
Literary Nightmare" by Miss Butler, could
hardly have been read iu better style by
Willoughby Read himself.
The evening passed most delightfully."- to
every one, and when another such enter
tainment takes place, may we be there
again.

THE celebrated Hay Fork notes that
were extensively advertised through the
county papers some time ago are begin
ming to put in an appearance. So near
as we can gather, the signatures of some
of our prominent and influential farm
ers signed certain printed agreements,
purporting to be agencies, that look per-
fectly innocent and harmless on their
faces, which they really were. In taking
these signatures the operators were al
ways very careful to furnish their own
writing material. 1t turns out now that
one signature given in this particular
ink, will, by dampenlng and pressure
furnish number of fac-simile sigma
lures. These signatures are imprinted
on genuine interest-bearing judgment
notes that might give the maker great
deal of trouble if not properly attended
to on first appearance.

SARAH ELIZABETH PETER, wife of
R. c. Meyer, died at the residence of
Henry Meyer, Esq, on Dec. i, 1880, in
the 26tE year of her age. The deceased
was born in Crawford county, Ohio;
but has resided since her marriage in
Fostoria, Ohio. She came here early in

her childhood she united with the

was the remark of her intimate friends
that she endured her long illness, con-
finement and suffering with singular pa
tience; and when her life was ebbing
she displayed the confidence and faith
that is only begotten by the Friend that
sticketh closer than a brother Mrs.

Christian woman.

AN ingenious swindle is being prac-
ticed in some parts by which one dollar
bills are made to return large interest
to the manipulators. 4 one dollar bill
and FIVE dollar greenback currency are
carelessly torn in two in the MIDDLE and
a half of the one ald a half of the five
are pasted together. Unless scrutipized
they will be apt to be taken for fives.
Thus, with SIX dollars, the swiDdler will
make pToiit of four out of two fiyes he
manufacturers. Keep close watch on
the bills of that denomination received.
