The undersigned wish lo tender their sin
cere and grateful acknowledgments to their
many friends who made them a Donation vist
at tho Town Hall, on the fourth inst. The
occasion was one of the moet pleasant that has
ecurred in our history for a long time. Such
an oasis iu one's life cannot bo forgotten.
Those who gathered there seemed to have
anticipated all of our wants. The larder, the
wardrobe, and the wallet, were all remembered,
and especially the latter. Tbe whole foote up

the success of the occasion. Last, but not

the hour, was tho inspiring niusic of Ford's

Village Gossip.
Last week V. (.. sail an effort was being
made to extend the corporate limits of this
village, and favored it : but he hears that a
certain gentleman, who feels interested, inas
much as his valuable property will bo included,
has been up to Lansing
LOBBYING AUA1NST THE MIX,.
V. (!. ia not surprised that tbe gentleman in
question looks with dread upon tbo passage of
the bill, for, as it now stands, ho has unite an
advantage over his less fortunate neighbors,
who happen to be a few rods this side. 1 i is
property is really in the village and just outside
tho corporation limits, consequently all im
provements benotit it equally with that which
is located within the limits, of courso he
would be opposed to any change, for it is cer
tainly far more preferable to see others taxed
to help increaso tbe value of his property than
it is to pay his money out !
V. has expressed himself in favor of tho
proposed extension but ho does not favor tho
'bject which he understands the origmatore
L avc in view. Wbat they expect is this I If the
c rporahon is extended, the people will be
taxed to build
A SIDE-WALK
fro. i the village to i'rospect Hill Cemetery.
No . tbil cemetery ii not public property: it
belongs to private individuals, and V. G. fails
to see wbat justice there would be in compelling
all to pay for improving property owned by a
certain few.
The
KAHll KRpi MI TfAL FIBE INSEHAXCE CO.
of this county held their annual meeting at the
Court-houeo, in this village, on Monday last.
V". .. was not present, hut he is told that the
attendance was large, a new charter adopted,
and tho following officers 'cted for the ensu
ing year :
President David Woodman. 2d.
Vice Fresident E. P. Mills.
Sec'y and Treas. F. P. Hathaway.
PiroototlO. Wesley Young. Asa Crofoot,
Samuel ConaoUue, William Nlarkillie and E.

case where it ha-

Y. thinks
MM HrLrtriiT LXD tybril:.
are entitled to some credit for the effort they
made last week to keep the walks clear, and.
considering the amount of snow which be
fallen, tbey did remarkably well. V hopea
the above gentlemen will accept his thanks, al
though he is aware that that article unaccom
panied with money will not go far toward giving
one a living.
Tbe other evening, as V. G. was bauntering
aloiu; Main street, he observed a
LABOE Xl'MriEB OF BOYS,
whoso ages ranged all tbe way from eight or
nine to twenty yeare, smoking, chewing and
swearing, and V. G. bnrriod home feeling both
pity and disgust for these futuro statesmen (,'f)
Vfter getting comfortably seated in his aOOJ
chair by the tiro, bis mind returned to the sceno
lie bad just witnessed, and he wondered if tie
parouts of those hoys knew where and how
they were spending thou evenings. Another
thought suggested itself, which he will give for
the benefit of the many roadersof this journal.
V. G. would have the citizens of this Tillage,
club toether, rou :i r om. furnish it with
good newspaper and magazines, aud have it
opened every evening from seven to nine
o'clock, for the benefit of the boys and girls.
V. G. woud not stop here, but would have one
evening in each weeK devoted to a
UTEBABY EXTEB rAIXSTEXT.
consisting of select readings, recitations, dis
cussions, music, etc.. and occasionally, to vary
the programme, be favored with lectures from
somo of our citizens. Everything should be
conducted in a quiet and orderly manner.
Farents should accomiany their children, and,
' J . . ' '
i when the hour arrives for closing, should havo
them return to tbeir homes.
V. G. is sure that tbe above project can be
made a success if our men and women will

V. G. would
like to bear what others have to say on this
subject.
