URsULINE SISTERS.
Thos. c. Leech, Esq, left for Kansas City
last Monday morning. He will take place
in the big dry goods establishment of BulIene,
Moores IL Emory. Mr.. l.. has ability and
energy, and we trust he may advance rapidly
in position and gather in untold numbers of
ducats.
The new bell for the Episcopal church was
put into position yesterday. Jno. Albert,
Esq, had the contract for removing the old
and pntting up the new, and he filled it in a
workmanlike manner. The bells weigh each
over one thousand pounds, and the belfry is
about fifty feet high.
Several weddings are on the tdpis, but
since We are without official information, our
readers must possess their souls in patience
until the momentous events transpire. For
tunately, for deferred inquisitiveness, they
won't be long in Transportation, so to speak.
This is our candid opinion.
In Mrs. Penniman's emusic" advertise
ment, of two weeks age, the ''devil' made it
to read "For term of t,co weeks" when it
should have read "For term Of ten weeks"
His Satanic Majesty evidently would put the
cultivation of the Divine Art beyond the
reach of ordinary mortals.
The heavy rain of Monday evening set the
bridge back just one day. The creek rose
and washed away the temporary trestle-
work upon which was laid the iron for one
of the spans. Ii the rains had been as heavy
west of us as they were in the Valley, there
Is no telling the damage that would have re-
suit ed.
Mr.. Edgar is on the street again smiling as
usual. His late internal "unpleasantness"
was probably only the overpowering effect of
the sudden shock of being struck by Presi-
Dental lightning, and the appearance of a
boy-baby in the family. The concurrent
bursting of such thunder bolts we should say,
would naturally produce such climaxical
nervous cyclone as would PROSTATE almost
any young man.
We hear intimations of proceedings on the
part of a certain gentleman (o on Marble
Greek which will be made public as soon as
the particulars can be obtained. Ii those
intinations are true, he is brute who ought
not be tolerated in any community, savage
or civilized. We do not desire to be able to
hold him up to public scorn, through veri-
fed rumors, but shall do so all the same II
those rumors are verified.
In accordance with the provisions of See.
7,O71 of the present law, as amended, it be-
comes the duty of the president of each
school board in every district to visit the
County Treasurer's office and there record
his official signature. Until this is done the
Treasurer is prohibited from paying any
school warrant drawn on him. This matter
should receive the attention of all school
officers, as the law takes effect on the 10th
inst.
III the party who called upon us last Tues
4 dav and ordered some some tickets printed,
does not call and pay for them before our
next issue, he will receive bit OF free ad-
vertising g. advertising that will not be as
pleasant to him as n sunny morning in May.
The person in question halls from Granite

Bro. Mcclure, of the Cashbook. accompan-
led bv his wife, came to Ironton last Satur-
day, and remained until Monday evening.
He is making q tour of the Southeast, resting
from labor, and seeking strength through the
enjoyment of change from the usual plodding
of a country editor. While here Bro. Mac
called upon US, and w efe glad to person

results of his recent sesSfe illness, but is
rapidly recovering frofafs effects.
The ladies of the Catholic Church in this
vicinity will furnish a refreshment stand at
the college grounds in Arcadia during the
commencement exercises. Ice-Cream, Lem
ouade and Soda, as well as refreshments of
the more substantial sort-all prepared by
the fair hands of the ladies themselyes-will
be served on demand. There therefore can
beno question as to the quality ofthe"gooas,"
and we are sure the the ladies will receive
big patronage. The proceeds will be do
mated to buying carpeting for the hallway in
the College.
