Some young men of our town, imi-
tating the great tinanciers of the cities,
bought up quite a number of lecture
tickets at the auction sale, as a specu-
lation. At the last entertainment one
of these spectators approached a gen
tleman who came with a party from
another county, and offered him four
sittings for the moderate (G) sum of
three dollars. The gentleman took
the tickets, but delivered himself about
as follows: young man, | wish Won
to understand that know that this is
an extOrtiOn, and that | am simnlv
contributing two dollars toward your
education at the st. Johnsbury Aeade-
my.n The lecture committee will most
likely take measures TO prevent such
imposition on the public in future
courses, but meanwhile it should be
known that there are quite a number
of very fair sittings for sale by the
ticket agents, and people need not buy
of spectators unless they choose to.
