Family Reunion.

Among the choicest blessings life affords is
the gathering of friends after long separation
from each other. The reunion Of the Robin
son family at the residence of our well known
townsman, Mr. j. W. Robinson, on Thursday
evening last was no exception from the general
rule. The family circle numbered seven, con-
sisting of five brothers and two sisters, includ-
ing besides the three who reside here, one each
from Illinois, Missouri Massachusetts and
Vermont There were also present five chill
dren and grandchild. During the evening
the company, composed of the family and
few friends, sat down to sumptuous repast,
after which music, games and a general good
time were enjoyed. Joy and happiness reigped
supreme throughout the evening, and the oc-
casiop was one to be long remembered by those
participating.

There have been held during the year twelve
meetings of the Board of Directors and twelve
of the society. The average length OF mem
bership of the nine members deceased was four
years and five months. The average cost to
each deceased member paid into the society
was $52, and the aggregate paid into the So
ciety by all members who died during the year
was $467 to secure to their families the aggre-
gate sum of $7558. The total benefits paid
since the organization of the society amount
to S38, 82S.
1t appears by the Treasurers report that the
receipts from admission fees and annual as
sessments have not only been ample to pay cur
rent expense of the society but leave a hand

denly-tendered resignation OF Second As

which were circulated impugning his hon.
esty at the time the star-route service was
investigated by the Blackburn committee
have been revived. II would now appear
that there has been much more behind the
rumors than was acknowledged at the POST

lated, was either not performed at all or
very imperiectly performed, irregularities
being carefully planned, 1t il supposed, for
the purpose OF transferring money from the
Treasury to the pockets OF favored con-
tractors and their cOniederatcs. The irregu.
arilies seem to have been confined chiefly
TO the routes west OF the Mississippi river
and to those in the Territories.
AT the proper time the Postmasier-Gene-
raj will through the press make public the
result OF his investigations. a postal OFF,
cial said to-day, "There is much that it
would not be prudent 10 disclose now. The
