Press Notices. CUMBACK AT CHAUTAUQUA. Among the grand things of the July meetings, which later visitors may well regret having failed to hear, was the effort of Hon. Will Cumback, of Indiana. He leetured upon the taking subject of “The Invisible ‘Some People.’ ( It was a keen and sarcastic dissection of those vices and weaknesses of modern society which are usually credited disingenuously to “son e people,” or “they say.” This eloquent and witty appeal for open dealing, fair play, and truthfulness and charity was one of the best eflorts of the platform this season, and the meager report of it that was published gives but a faint idea of its telling effvet.—Chautauqua Herald. Governor Cumback has had considerable experience in poliuet, the law, and public life. He is an easy off hand speaker of the Western style, and is l equally at home on the rostrum, on the I stump, and in the drawing-room . ff# j is popular, agreeable, aggressire w, r. necessary, and an admiral*!

Will Cumback delivered his lecture November 26th, on ‘‘lnvisible Some People,” to a large and delighted audience, in Association Hall, in this city.—blew York City Christian Advocate Ihe lecture by Hon. Will Cumback was as we knew it would be, a most enteraining and attractive one. Every person present was delighted. All want him to be engaged in every course. By all odds it was the best lecture of the year. Governor Cumback stands among the foremost lecturers of America.—Kokomo Tribune. Hon. Will Cumback, Ex- LieutenantGovernor of Indiana, and one of the most honored citizens of this commonwealth, lectured to a line audience on “Invisible Some People.” The Governor’s stage presence is fine, and he is a polished orator. His keen satire on the many characters in life that the term “Invisible Some People” fits, was appreciated and loudly applauded, and every auditor was held to the close. It was full of wit, and has many touching and sublime passages. After hearing it, we believe it to be the best attraction of the lyceum platform of to-day.— Fort Wayne Daily Gazette.
