No preaching services have been held
at the Baptist Church, during the last
two weeks.
Communion services were held at the
Presbyterian Church, last Sunday morn
ing.
A number of persons have suffered from
sore throat and sore eyes, during the past
week.
| Visitors from New York City, have
been spending some time in the village.
Mr.. Frank Young, wife and two child
rem have been visiting relatives here.
They started, last week, for their home,
which is in Colorado, accompanied by
Mr.. Young's sister, of Matawan.
The wife and daughter of DR.. A. S.
Pittenger, formerly of Glen Gardner, have
been spending some time with Mrs. Pit
tenger's father, Mr.. William Case. Last
Saturday morning, they left for Hunts
vile, Ala, where the doctor has gone in
hope that his health, which is very feeble,
will improve under the influence of the
warm climate.
During recent evening, Temper
ance Missionary Meeting, was held in the
Baptist Church. The exercises consisted
of music, recitations and readings, on the
subject of Temperance, rendered by the
two mission bands connected with the
Presbyterian and Baptist churches.
During last Monday evening, tenn
perance lecture was delivered at the Bap-
fist Church, by Mr.. George Hall.
Some Germans, living in the vicinity,

Prof. G. w. Larson, of this place, is
engaged in writing reply to a paper en-
titled Queries in Orthoepy,' sent out
by the Spelling Reform Association Of
England. 1t is work of some length,
and will require much time and care on
the part of the writer. Copies of these
"queries" have been sent to all the schol-
ars of America, noted for their attain
ments in phonology, and the answers arc
intended to form the basis of further re-
form in English spelling, and to make
the language used in England, nearer
like that Of America.

-Harrigan's Hibernia Co. showed at
Holcombe Hall to full house last even
ing. The performance was fair but as a
whole it was not equal to that given by
Howarth's, with his Hibernican, and the
pictures were decidedly inferior. We
learn that numbers of reserved seats were
sold second time at the ticket office, af-
ter having been selected and paid for
days before at Cochran's. Mr.. Harrigan
may think this is being sharp, but the
few extra dollars thus gained will be lost
and more, should his troupe again visit
Lambertville.

We deeply regret to chronicle to day
the death of the young and estimable
wife of Mr.. George F. Hanson, our assist
ant Surrogate, which occurred yesterday
Sunday morning at about o'clock. She
had been sufferer for some time from
consumption, and her death was not alto
gether unexpected, though the end came
much sooner than was anticipated. She
had been loving bride of little less
than two years, and her taking off is a
severe blow to the devoted husband. Her
kind and affectionate disposition together
with simplicity and a modesty of man.
ner attracted every one to her and caused
all to admire and love her. In the
morning of her life God has seen proper
to call her home, and to His will all must
bow in humble submission. She was a
daughter of Captain Elisha E. Holcombe,
of Mount Airy. -Hunterdon Democrat.

Mr.. ED1ToR:-Snugly ensconsing our
self under the wings of one of our profess
sors, few days ago, we paid visit in
company with our Mentor" to Manns
new Paper Mill, in this city, where we
were kindly ushered within the walls,
containing the ''hidden mysteries" by
one who we found to be real "Good-
fellow A call upon the gong brought
us into close relationship with the genial
Superintendent Of the mills, Mr.. Wagg,
who smiled blandly and welcomed us to an
inspection of the new establishment. The
mill is devoted to the manufacture of a
new and improved kind of copying paper,
extensively used by all merchants and
business men in general. The peouliari-
ty of this paper, consists in its capacity of
rendering, when score or more sheets
are compressed upon the surface of
manuscript in press as used in offices, q
perfect series of legible co pies for preser-
walton. The mill contains several large
beating pulp engines, 54-inch cylinder
paper machine, a large rotary steam boil
er, lime tubs, &C., and all the usual ma
chinery of well equipped paper mill.
The interesting department is the sorting
room, where number of young ladies
are busily engaged in counting and in
specting the sheets before they are put
up in packages for the market. AS we
are noted for our natural bashfulness in
the presence of the fair sex, we took OBJ
servations at distance and were favor
ably impressed with both looks and be-
havior. A chemical laboratory is to be
established for the manipulation Of GER
tain experimental processes by the Super
intendent. A large quantity Of this pa
per is daily made here and shipped to the
market, in which there is an unlimited
demand for it, owing to its good qualities.
Judging from the operations going on in
the building, departments, &C., we sur
mise that new and additional improve
ments will soon be super added to those
already completed. Having seen much
to interest us, we babe goodbye to our
friend Mr. Wagg and returned lowell,
somewhere. X.
