died. Young Swayne Who went from
this part of the country to near where
DIR. HOwlett's death occurred, was ap-
piled to to have the body disenterred
and sent home. He wrote the family
in Delta that the whole cost would be
$3.50, and he was to express the remains
to Delta. They were however, sent to
Baltimore, with the following hill of
$560.8O Z. 0. d. which was the cause of
the ihjunction:

The Pendulum of Life.

This is the theme which will en- !.
gage the great Kentucky Orator.
Col. Geo. W. Balm on Saturday
evening, April 18th. which will be
the concluding lecture of the series
of entertainments organized and
successfully carried out by the pub
lie spirited committee, whe provided
such noble literary course for the
enjoyment and instruction of the
town and neighbOrhood. The com
mittee risked some what inth is ven.
ture, for it is we'll known that an in
structive ennebling and elevating
lecture is not nearly SO popular with
.'the masses" as the antic monkey
show" which requires no intellectual
culture to appreciate.
The lecture of Col. Balm will be
the last, and from the fame of the
orator which has gone before him,
re are safe, we think. in promising
that it will be one of the best, if not
the best OF the course. No one
within three or four miles of Rising
Sun should miss this concluding
lecture. To secure the best talent
the country can afford, together with
the greatest variety possible, quite
an expense had to be incurred and
it will require full house to bring
the committee through achote. So
good people, turn out, not alone for
personal enjoyment and profit which
you are sure to obtain, in an evening
sp MT with the fascinating Balm, but
also for the purpose of encouraging
by example and substantial aid al
class of popular entertainments that
elevatethe mental and moral
standard of the community. The
older people owe this duty to the
younger.
