The Baptist concert, next Thursday night,
will attract the usual large audience almost
a. q matter Of course, but 1t will possess the
peculiar interest for musical people of being

saw enough Of the lady when she made her
debut at commencement, last spring, to be
very favorably impressed with her own
requirements and that splons5 which is 30
necessary to make use of accomplishments
once attained. We have been granted sufi-
eisnt insight into what goes on at the college,
to know that Miss Gould is q eonscisntious
worker, and We think, therefore, we may
safely say, that all who attend the concert,
next week, will be simply repaid for any
trouble 1t may cost them.

eiate the sollloquy OF 'The Gas" which we

There 10 . great deal of just complain
made by citizens Of the western part Of th.
county reg arding the wretched condition o
the county road from Wellington to thi
city. The blame la not all, or. indeed, t.
'ny considerable degree, sttacAable to th,
road overseers. The railroad track crosse.
the road several times, aud beside thes,
crossings there are twelve or fifteen switch
es. The road Is naturally q difficult one t.
keep in order, and these impedlmenta rem
der 1t very much worse. In addition to tni.
1t runs near the railroad all the way, IN some
places the wagon road being very contract
ed, and between bluff or river, so as to rem
der 1t extremely dangerous. Not only this
but the numerous coal chutes are conslahtl,
at work and the noise of The descending Goa
