We are at a loss how to classify last Sunday as it was neither -very wet-nor 'very cold, just a little chilly and misty. According to our sign-it will be a moderately favorable spring. The day' was well observed by the churches of | our place. The altar of the ITesby- i teriaii church was handsomely deeorat-. cd wit: lilies, gefaaiums and other blooming plants; and the pastor, Rev. J. B. Crow’S, preached a beautiful and appropriate sermon. At the 51. E« S. S., D. M. Nelson, the popular young superintendent, made spnae interesting Remarks as to the origin ot’Eastcr.

against Mr. Fairchild-, simply, because he had been appointed by ex-auditor Nowles, not that they doubted Mr. Fairchild, was a good man and a good republican, but as a rebuke, and to serve notice, that, that kind of wireworking skullduggery, is “played out” in this neck of woods, i The “G.

Prepared bp the Women*’ Christian lent per Kit ee Uhionof. It'-ensuela er Ind-,. The W. C. T. U., met at the parlors of Mrs. C. V. Stair, on last Saturday afternoon. Owing to some outside work, little was done, except some business transacted. A committee was appointed td prepare a set of resolutions upon the loss sustained by our society, in the removal of our Reporter, Mrs. Jones. The Easter entertainment at the Opera House, on last Sunday afternoon, was largely attended. The stage was tastefuily decorated with flowers, mottoes an-1 drat-ings, and if the choir had done its part, the exercises would have been creditable. It seems strange, to us, that in a town possessing the musical talent which Rensselaer boasts, there cab not be found a greater number who are willing to lend their aid in this tefnuerance work. A choir which would furnish good music at every meeting, would be a power for good, as levers of music are found everywhere, and many might be. drawn to our meetings, through its influence, and thus Le beuelitted, Who could not be reached in any other way. We sincerely hope that, in future, there will be a greater interest manifested in this regard, and that three or four may be spared the embarrassment of imperfectly performing the work of a dozen or more. Choir meeting at Mrs. Hemphill’s, on next Friday evening. A good attendance is desired. Let all who feel interested'FT the good of the Temperance School,'be present, and help to keep the I all rolling. Rev. J.

I think his blood must have contained tlse humor for at least ten years: but it did not show, except in the form of a scroft’Lus sore on the wrist, until about five years ago. From a few spots which.appeared r.t that time, it gradually spread so as to cover his efi* ire body. I assure you he'was terribly ailliercd. and an object of pity, when he began utdiigipur medicine.
