They possess much skill in fnanciering and the result this time was of the most grati- flying character. They gave an excellent supper, including ice cream. and the post-ofice plan worked admirably, swelling the funds by several dollars. The list of fancy articles was large and were made by the ladies for this special occasion and the bazaar was presided over by Mrs Elson J. Hornbeck. while Misses Hattie Street and Grace Dudley were the postmistresses The receipts amounted to two hundred and twenty dollars. which is very gratifying and they will have handsome sum left after settling their bill for the walks. The republican parade was held Saturday evening. They formed in the yard of the Congregational church and marched to Battle Hill" and back, then up to Amesville, where they were joined by delegation from Salisbury and Lakeville, and then back to the village, up Prospect street, around to the hall, where they repaired for sup per, which was bountiful one, prepar- ed by the ladies and of which many partook of repast, including some from the opposite party. All went in for a good time, and judging from appearances all enjoyed it. The donkey made some sport after he had passed into other hands and it has taken up quarters at present on Battle Hill. ' The illuminations were very fine and g special attraction. The Fl. R. R. band played several patriotic pieces, which they played during the campaign four years ago.
