The Times appears in quarto form, as neat
ms a pin, and quite attractive. But its editor
is lawfully off, about the feelings of the
postmaster OF this city. By simply sitting
down and writing to Washington he can
learn for his own satisfaction that the p. NJ.
Of this city has rendered his resignation
more than once, the last time being a year
ago only. and then absolutely. If the editor
of the Times imsgines that the postmaster
don't dearly earn every cent he gets let him
secure the place of the opposing factions as
n compromise man, and then come and talk
t. US six months after he has furnished his
bonds and got his commission. The depart

breaking new one in more than the average

Mr.. d. S. Pence has been making many
improvements in his rooms over Woodman's
bank. His rooms are now fitted up in regu-
lar commercial college style, are well fur

comfortable as private parlor. The classes
are steadily growing. The bookkeeping
class is taught on Saturdays as well as al
night, Sup,. Hammond is associated with
Mr.. Pence in this school. and gives most Of
his spare time TO the bookkeeping class.
The scholars are making far more progress
than they could possibly make at one of the

Last evening, near the junction Of Doug
las and Topeka avenues AS n wagon and a
buggy were about TO pass and were being
turned to the proper course to admit OF this,
the heavy wagon slipped upon the street car
track and struck the lighter vehicle with such
force as TO upset it. There was woman
and baby in the buggy, and though they
were badly frightened, the remarkable and
agreeable discovery was made, when they
had been assisted TO their places in the
buggy, that neither one of them was at all
injured.

There was Sunday-school Ami
versary at Pleasant Ridge, a few miles
east of Mt. Vernon, Sunday week. A
big crowd was in attendance from all
the country round, and the feminine
sex We'd with the forest flowers in their
varied and gay attire. There was
dinner in the woods, and much quiet
fun, every one having good time. AT

From Allardt.

The first social event of the summer
was the "wooden wedding" of our
friends Mr.. and Mrs. A. H Carroll, at
Cosy Cottage, on the evening of Thurs
day the 22nd. 1t was almost entirely
inpromptu and somewhat of surprise
to the gentleman most interested.
The evening was perfect, as our
evenings are apt to be at this season.
The guests to the number of nearly
thirty, assembled about sunset. The
grounds were lighted with lanterns and
a bright bonfire. The table was spread
under the trees, with things most
tempting to eye and taste. No attempt
was made at a formal feast, but who
could want anything more inviting than
Strawberries at their best2 There was
not the slightest attempt at formalities
and all was thoroughly enjoyable.
After the good things were discussed
and speeches were in order, Mr. Cyrus
Clarke addressed the company in few
fitting words Of congratulation, welcome,
and encouragement, to the "newly
married" pair and assembled friends.
Other calls for remarks were responded
to in most eloqnent-silence not
from unwillingness to talk except in a
formal way, for lively chat was kept
up in most pleasant sociability until
the hour for parting came.
The wedding gifts were apt and suit.

CHATTER FROM ALLAEDT.

From my perch occasionally hear
things that have thought might be
interesting to other ears than mine,
therefore, with your permission, I will
now aud then send the PLATEAU GA
zETTE few items. While oiling my
feathers this morning, and appearing
very uninterested, overheard Rev.
gentleman remark that he had never
visited Allardt when it had looked more
beautiful than it does now. Nature
seemed to have we'll supplied the place
this Spring with attractions, and COW
cred all with lovely mantle of green,
decorated with flowers Of every hue.
Allardt is putting on city airs, and
many visitors going and coming remark
upon the business manners and pros
poets of the place. The little homes,
too, which are scattered here and there,
are beginning to have quite cheerful
aspect.

Well Not to Forget.

A very interesting subject to think
about just at this time, is the rapid
advancement of the negro race. From
every town and city comes the en-
couraging reports Of the high stand
ing Of colored scholars in the various
branches of education, proving con-
clusively that the race is just as sus-
ceptible to education and every
branch of knowledge, as any race
ever created. But, in the midst of
all this, it would be we'll not to forget
the workshop. We need develop
ment. There is great field of in
dustry to which we are practically
excluded. We must learn to look
upon the work bench with the same
appreciation and respect that we do
upon the professions, and if we are
barred out from the work shops of
the whites, we must establish shops
of our own. Skilled workmen.
whether they be black or white, will
before many years be in demand.
Machinery is fast supplementing the
hands of the laborer, and the profes
sions are equally as fast becoming
over-crowded, and it is really import
ant that the minds of our youths
should be directed towards the various
branches of industry. Perhaps the
school doing the greatest work in this
direction is the Hampton College.
Other schools are also taking up this
course of study, and wherever the
people incline in this direction, they
should receive the unanimous support
of the race.
