TOGUs-

The last lecture of Gen. Stephenson deliv-
cred Wednesday evening in Gen. Franklin
Hall, on 1.-The Battle on Gettysburg, was
splendid effort. The speaker was in his hap
piest mood and for an hour and half held his
audience spell bound as they lived over again
those fearful davs. when the confederate army
torn and bleeding for the last time was
driven from the loyal States and there re-
ceived blow from which it never recovered.
The lecture was interspersed with bits OF pa
thos and. the frequent and hearty applause
from men who faced the tempest OF death at
that time showed the power of the speakers
eloquent address over his audience. Inc
steroptican illustrations and orchestra accom-
paniments were very good. VETERAN.

and he who sets net or spears bass unlaw-
fully must be unusually sly. 1t was but last
week that Mr.. Carr went up to Belgrade and
seized $50 feet of nets near Pinkham's Cove
in Belgrade pond. There were several white
perch in the meshes. Nets are much more
destructive than spearing. The latter mode
takes pickerel mainly, while the net captures
everything that falls in Its way. A little later
than this the white perch swarm at the mouths
of the streams and net rightly placed makes
sad havoc in their ranks.

spond6 writes. The forenoon had
been fb, though somewhat hazy, but
about 80 p. m. heavy cumuli formed
to theprth and northwest. Gradually a
dense lass of cloud and haze came
from b northward, presenting lurid,
threading aspect, and it became so
dark tat one could not read book in
doors. At 4:30 rain began to fall, at
first a bw drops, and soon after heavy
down. our. When this commenced /

ing inhe air, which I at first took to
be tlie or winged ants, but they rapid
" inchSsedi in number, and on looking
at them more closely | found them to
be particles Of SCOT, on an average
about the sizeof the common fly. Their
number was 81 great that it appeared
for ten minutes to be showing black,
the descent ofthe blacks being slow,
like that of srDwffakes. After it had
rained heavily Ior fifteen minutes, these

lighter, but thu rain continued for an
other hour, and altogether | measured
80 inches in my gauge. | find on in
quiry that this black rain was noticed
in the whole neighborhood-at least
four miles to the northeast and two
miles to westward; hence it can not
have been due to local chimneys. AS
far as / can ascertain the shower was
entirely local; it seems to have followed
"a narrow course from north to south
only few miles wide, and did not ex-
tend TO either Eastbourne or Hastings.
