The following "news ~ from Lambert
vile is by way of Trenton, and appears in
the State Gazette of Thursday last:
An interesting meeting took place in the |
rooms of the Women's Christian Temperance |
Union of Lambertville last evening. The |
object Of the meeting was to take measures to

which gives rise to good deal of talk, is that
