The students and triei da of Krookville College are seldom favored with ro pleasant an entertainment as that given them by Rev. Dr. Lynch on last Ftiday evening. His subject was ''Education" a subject, he said, though old ret always important and ever interesting; the truth of which he verified throughout his lecture. He began by showing that EJv:caj lion, through lis J roper medium, Language, hM eer h'Pl conversant wuhthe past, n,i ,h tribute he paid the Languages was noble indeed. He demonstrated very clearly the necessity of becoming fully acquainted with Geography to be a eonect historian, and his beautiful allusions to History must, bate awakened in everv mind that hrarJ him TpI. tug of sublimity and more earnest desires to become familiar with that ennobling study. With great earnestness be urged the study of the Natural Sciences, dwelling at some length on the pleasing and t-levating truths which they inculcate. The superior advantages offeted the student of ti e present, compared with those enjoyed bj Milton and Newton and their coteuipoiaries in the arts and sciences, were very forcibly illustrated. His gentle re buke to the do-nothing, be-nosbing, knownothing class of this enlightened era, would certainly have touched the feelings of any cf its members, couid they have heard it. To the ladies bis remarks were very happy and complimeutary. He closed with an tloqueut appeal to his audience to diiiik deeply from the fountains ot learning, and above all to imbiie freely from the fountain of life, Well did the lecturer mfrit the vote of thanks tendered him by the Literary Society, Would thai the tnembsrs of that Society and the youth .of all Urookt ule could enjoy such a treat tuotiliiiv.

For tba American. Festival at Blooming Grove Dedication of Church. Ma. EdiToB., The ladies of Blooming Grove and vicinity held a meeting and resolved to have an Oyster Sapper to assist In furntshtog the new church with earpet, lamps, Ac. They had embarrassments to overcome, but who ever knew the ladies to take a stand on any subject, but there was a yielding on the part of somebody? In the Erst place, Blooming Grove never had an Oyster Supper for that purpose, and thea there were some opposed to using means of that kind for furnishing their neat and commodious building, now almost ready for dedication. Bat the ladies, assisted by a few cf the tna les, w tnt to work iu earnest, and en Wednesday evening, Ifov. KHh, the village was moved from one end to the other getting ready for the supper. The old M. E. Church was cleared of its seats; a cooking stove was placed in ens corner; tables on both sides and across oae end wete erected, attended by a eorps of accommodation gentlemen and ladies. The house was soon tiled. Oysters, fruits, cakes, pies, nuts and candies were called for; plenty ot hand, and sold at fair prices, causing the nett proceeds to reach f9?,23. Everything passed off pleasantly. Prof. Lewis, assisted by a few seleot singers and Instrument, gavetsome good music, which added to the entertainment. We expect some feeling on the occasion of dedicating our new and handsome bouse to the service of Almighty God, and hope many of ear friends of the church will be present on Sabbath, Nov. 2tst, to witness the ceremonies.

The Republican ttate Convention is expected to take place at Indianapolis en the 22 J of February next. We had in view to write an article on the subject of which the following Trout the Shelbjville Union treats, when our eye met it, and it seemed to fill the bill so well that we copy it entire, and commend it to our Republican friends aa wholesome truth aud No. 1 common sense. Read it: Lawreneeburg Press. The Indianapolis Daily Journal ef tie 0;h ult. has a cood article oa the sub ject of our future as a party, and the line I of policy we should pursue. We 8f;ree j with that paper that to succeed next year ' we must make up our State and Coogres- j tMons.1 tickets ot the lest material that tue Prty can furnish. I he lesson oytbe past should be sufficient to impressthis important fact on the minds of all -Republicans, and control the action of all our conventions State, Congressional and ; Countj next jcar. we uaa fouie "ueaa weii-uis on our tste and Congressional tickets last year, who, in spite of all the effort made by the I workinir men of the rartv, came very near rsrrvin.. its down to a minoritv t)nr ! to a minority. Our Candidate for Governor, who should have led our ticket, and received the highest vote on it, as it has been in times ast. was carried in by the popularity of other j men on the ticket, and the importance ot the contest, and came out with the lowest atsjovity of any man ou the ticket, his rusjority being less than one thousand. The $tale is close, as well as many of the Congressional lMstricts, and we must put forward our best and most popular men on both tickets, or we will be badly beaten next year. I he Kepubucan party beiongs to no man. It men ol abtlttv and popularity are called by the party to j ftil the? posts of honor, they should not disregard the call, but take the banner of the party and lead her patriotic hosts to victory. Hut, the time has come, if we di not court defeat, to frown down ' the intrigue and wire pulling of the "dead weights" at the Convention to defsat the popu'ar wiil, and keep themselves oa the ticket. Another thing: ITs J not want any tut Iky norm ut rV rAt.-n next year! In the Senatorial contest last winter, it I was found that we had certain men ia the i party who would pull well 'enough when ! their iatercsts were binS subserved, -but I would balk and kick out of the traces when I they could not have their own way. - This class of men, unfortunately for them, put a much higher estimate upon themselves than the party does, and if thay are not protnotad as fast as they think they ought to be, they rebel, aud strive to break up the organization. We want none of these. The are Italic s and disorganizes, and have forfeited the j confidence of the masses of the rartv. Wa hftj bored t-ltat none ot them would hae I liopea t-ttat none ot tlieui would ltae presumption to ever ask tho party or emulation again, but what this class : the a nomination lack in any good qualities, they more than make up in downright vhc.fc aud cool impudence. Wa see by some of our exchanges that Judge b'rafier, of the Supreme Court, is ! C . .. : .. i' . I .1 . . . . . . . ucumisr tor a riace on tue oiate aicsei. uai-v ucu wc uaix iuo irinuio fi t of t le liopub lican rart v. o obo J v e ver beard of it. When he fouud that by tha '"t,r nJ tacriSce of Others, we had a V10 'J anJ among the fruits of victory a "pubhean Legislature, he modestly de mauded of the party the best office it had t.) give the U S. Senatorshin. When the Legislature from the Xorth met, h brought down a powerful lobby, all.

doubtless, under pay, and commenced the fisiht for the nomination. After a contest that had, no parallel in our State, the cau. cus came on, aud Frarjer had loss thau ten votes, while Lieut. Governor Cumback had over fifty votes, on the first ballot more than a majority of all tho Republicans elected to both branches of the Legislature. Had F razicr the true elements of man-

LooJ, having been fairlj beaten,, be would have eupported the nominee and the party, tie bolted the nomination, and took his friands with hita, and with the help of tba Democrats tried to break up aur organisation by allowing himself to be used as a candidate, and receiving the votes of the "bolters" against the regular nominee. By that act he placed himself outside of our organisation, and has no claims upon our confidence. We cannot afford to nominate euch men. By so doing, we encourage bolting, and. disorganization. How can we insist that the masses shall vote the xckole ticket, and nothing but the ticket, when the ticket is made up of disorganizers and bolters? Judge Fracier is about as good a Republican as Sain Cary, of Ohio, with this difference, that outside as he is of our party, he has neither the energy or ability of Cary to fight us. We think it best to speak out now, and to speak out plainly. It will be extremely suicidal to us to put any of the balky horses in the team in 1S70; Neither do we want any old, spavined, broken-down nags tLatcaunot make time. Give us on all the tickets theyoung; active men of the party who stand by its colors and its organization all the time

who are Republicans because they believe in the glorious Faith and practice of the party, and vho do not have to be fed with the golden spoon of patronage to keep from bolting the ticket. Custom House Frauds. New York, November 12. The Sun has a report that the drawback frauds in the Custom House are known to exceed nine hundred thousand dollars, and will reach a much larger amount that is not known. Frauds have been in progress for several years. Two of the men concerned hive turned State's evidence, and are clearing up the matter. The etory is that Blatchford and Thierolt, who were chief clerks in the Record Department ef the Custom House, were engaged to put their initials on fictitious certificates of export in order to obtain the drawback. The organization was very complete, as titers were Confederates in all departments of the Custom Ilou-eand Internal Revenue offices here, and in the Treasury Department at ashinston. Certificates were made out for all Borts' of goods, cbieGy for bootsand shoes, oil cloths and hardware. Ooe certificate showed an export of a locomotive aud train of cans, when nothing of the kind was shipped. Fifteen or twenty persons are implicated; among them three brothers, named Caldwell, Custom Home brokers, tj. W. Grinnell, of the Drawback Bureau; Francis A". Howard, of Dibbles & Howard, bankers, aud formerly clerk of Internal Revenue at Washington; Jerome Rsttzcnbcrgcin and W. H, Whimpster, are charged with being managers of the concern. Reitzeubergeinhas turned State's evidence. The Sun says, editorially, that (jrhmell must leave the Custom House, because af,er, '.act ct ulatontord s jjailt was laid l;e,ore ,um ue ave U,U1 leave ol absence ,!,at enabled him to go, to Ctnnada and CSCJPe ,0 Hurope, where it is understood he. lias S0De Some of our Democratic cotemnaranas s'ill persist that tha national debt is not growing ies. They say tint ia ISG5 it was otuet hitig over twenty three hundred millions, and that now ii is over twentylive hundred millions. To auv cue un--cq"iea wan tne tacts 01 auatrs, mis Jeems reallI ,iut fomehow they always forgct 10 sclicve their statement of a slight amb:gu U v. Ut course, it is not at all necessary for them to tell their readers that there was several hundred ruillioiis of dollars of unfunded debt. Oh! no. that would make sad havoc with their statewent, yet it is nevertheless true. x " .... . o vv we wui yive our reiacrs a very j atmplc illustration, and they can very plainly see through this whole mailer. Suppose that Mr. A. has fifty '-thousand doihtR- in real estate, he gives thereon ten thousand dollars iu the shape of mortgages, and he has five hundred dollars of outstanding debts, owing ro his several neih-

. i burs. Is he not fifieea thousand dollars

in Now at.the ead of six months he iias arranged his entire indebtedness in the shape of mortgages, and in the mean time paid oil three thousaud dollars, is he not stiil twelve thousand tiollar-s in debt? Yet he has paid off three thousand dollars, and is twelve thousand dollars ia debt. This illustration is precisely analogous to the situation of the government, and any one who is not bora blind can sec it with the greatest alacrity. With Grant at the head of the nation, and liotitwell at tL? 'ead.6f the Treasury department, we wm 2du8e tne debt so rapidly taat our Deatcraio friends will sea it coma down w,thoul tho alJ f spectacles. Versailles Dispatch. WAITED.
