City, Monday night. He was found in a
dying condition, at bawdy house, under

The City Council, Monday night
passed a resolution that all manufactures
r.;r~ u,.e,, r,ocb;nary shall ha axenn nj
from taxation for period of FIVE years
This includes the Courier Steam Printing
Office; and, in the name of the mauufac-
tories of Hickman, we hereby return
thanks to the Council for this liberality
The taxes are not much to be sure, but as
ar expression of encouragement this &C
ton Of the Council will have a healthful
influence.
Your reporter brushing around
among the temperance orders reports as
follows: The lodge of Good Templars is
very enthusiastic, and is increasing in
membership most wonderfully; being re-
organized less than two months since with
81 charter members, it has had an aver
age of six petitions for membership per
week. and ON last Tuesday night there
were Is petitions, and four limitations.
This is a good record, and it would GER
tainly be well if all the old Good Tenn
piars would reunite with this Lodge.
The Circle of Safety-a noble little in
stitution, is growing rapidly-num5ering
about forty, exclusive of ex-oticio mem
bers of the Royal Templars. This Circle
has seven candidates for initiation next
Monday night.
The Royal Templars is just now two
years old in Hickman; but your
porter learns that, the Council will soon
publish statement, it is probably best
not to tell all we have heard about this
thriving Order.
