Tun LECTURE.—Although kindly fa

curnstances prevented us. from attending
the Lecture which vas delivered in Trin

Bat we learn the lecture was quite a
succes.. The spacious edifice was well
filled and the audience delighted with the
entertainment. The attendance would
doubtless have been increased but for the
fact that the Lutheran Conference was iu
session at the same hour, and services also
in the Presbyterian church.

Rev. R. P. McClean, commenced a series
of interesting religious "meetings nt the

administered on Sunday morning. Meet

of this week. The Pastor was assisted
by Rev. D. K. Richardson and Rev. John

DEATH or "LITTLE Pecx."—The Ful
ton county papers contain the particulars
of the death of John P. Peck, Esq., gener
ally known as "Little Peck" from his ex
ceedingly small stature, who died at the
residence of Sheriff Morton, on last Thurs
day. The Republican remarks : "There
is probably not one of our readers, be he
aged, middle-aged or young, who has not
seen or heard of the subject of this article.
"Little Peck," the name by which he
was generally known,—a name which if
was born in Thompson township, this
county, in the year 1815, and died on
the 15th inst. "Little Peck" was four
feet high, and 36 inches around the
breast, and physically a man, but his
diminutive stature attracted all eyes.—
Mescular and active, he could • challenge
the strongest and tallest, and in a mo
menilifthem on tli6ilWc - k. • He was
well known in all this section of country,
and kindly known, for he never let the
slurs upon his stature, mar his temper,
but let them pass by with a laugh He
held the position of County Auditor and
was a candid ate for Associate Judge be
fore the Democratic nominating Conven
tion that met in Harrisonville a coupple
of years ago, but like Dau Rice, he hadn't
votes enough. With many, we regret to
see his quaint pigmian form removed
from our midst. He was gem! ant,
kind-hearted, and demonstrated that i,
man is not reckoned by his stature.'.'
The Democrat further particularizes ;
"At the time of his death, he held a
commission as Justice of - the Peace and
came to town on the 13th inst., to make
settlement with the Commissioners of the
unpaid taxes
concluded
by him. Having•
done this he concluded to indulge a little
in the "ardent," and while on his way
home, on Wednesday, fell from his horse

have resulted. - On arriving at the home

next morning was found to be dead.

1:11:31LRe GRANGE AT RINGGOLD.—
A meeting was held in the school house
at Ringgold, on Thursday evening last,
which was organized by calling Mr. Lew
is Garver to the chair, after which Mr.
Oscar Good delivered an able address.—
He was followed by Mr. Daniel Shockey,
who also delivered a wonderful speech.—
He proceeded to explain the object of the
grange movement. He said the object
was not to trample upon the laborer and
the mechanic but to build up and advance
the agricultural interests of the country,
and in order to accomplish this it was ne
cessary for the farmers to associate them
selves into secret orders to carry out their
designs. He further said that we have too
many doctors, that they had to make hea
vy charges to live, and chat the storekee
per was making 20 per cent. and turned
his money twice a year, while the farmer
could turn his but once. He also .spoke
of railroad companies and Jarge corpora
tions, that they were making all the mo
ney, etc.
I think the city of Pikesville ought to
be proud of her eloquent speakers. They
learned Ringgold a thing or two..
After Mr. Ben. Welty and Mr. Jacob
Good delivered their speeches the meeting
adjourned to meet on next Thursday ev
ening. A. B. C.

Comrtu.soux EDUCATION.—The big for
the compulsory education of the chil
dren of Illinois has been passed by the
House of Representatives. According to
its provisions children between the ages
of 9and 14 must be sent to school for
three months of the year, and six weeks
of the schooling must be continuous.
Poverty cannot be pleaded as an excuse
for failing to comply with the law, as the
books necessary will be supplied by the
State, and clothes will be given to desti
tute children. Parents or guardians who
neglect to obey the law will subject them
selves to prosecution and to fines for thir
teen weeks, rising from 51 to $ for each
week of such neglect.
Vik•lVe make the following extract
from a published account of this Siamese
Twins, who died on the 17th instant:
The chief points of their lives is _given
as follows: Their mother bore 17 chil
dren, never giving birth to less than two.
The twins were united at the anterior
part of the band the size of the hand.—
This band of flesh is about two inches
broad and four inches thick. The whole
muss is tough and capable of being con
siderably extended. One could whisper
in the ear of one without the other hear
ing ; while volatile salts applied to the
and while pinching the arm of one exci
ted no sensation in the other, still if you
but stick a pin in the exact vertical cen•
tre of the connecting link both would
flinch from the hurt.
The twins were seldom observed to con
verse with each other. After attracting
a vast amount of attention among seieir
tists and physiologists in the Old World,
they married two sisters, and settled down
near Salisbury, N. C., on a well stocked
plantation. In addition they bad at one
period ample funds invested through their
agent in New York.—During the war
they continued to reside on their planta
tion and lived in .the same quiet and har
mony as ever, until some few years after
wards. Of course, no one ever thought
of drafting them. The brothers probably
never would have had any difficulty, but
that their wives, though sisters, turned a
way their hearts, and children were the
cause of this estrangement.
Up to the period - that each had five
_children_alLprospered well enough, but
one_of them had a sixth, and this awoke
envy and jeolousy to such a degree that
the twin sisters, not being bound together
like the twin brothers, would no longer
live under the same roof. The brothers
were, it seems, about fifty-four years of
br beli tir— .11 id-
age, but one, we believe, the smaller' am
feebler of the two, looked, it is said, ten
years order than the other... They could
turn either back to back, or .thee to
face, but that is as for as the remarkable
bond that united them permitted. It
is almost certain that should either die
the other , could not survive even more
thart_n_fewminutes, as there is an artery
•as large as the femoral artery that con
nects them. A few years since they cor
responded with some of the leading surg
ical operators in London as to the possi
bility of the umbilicus being cut, so that
in case of the death of one the life of_
the_other_might_be_saved. At 'the request
the Lomitarsterg,con they visited that
city, and many experiments were tried to
determine the safety of such an operation.
Among other things a ligature was tied
firmly for a few minutes around the con
nection between them, so as to prevent
the circulation of blood through the arte
ry. But it seemed as if each would ex
pire if this were persisted in. The smal
ler of the two fainted away and lost all
consciousness, and there were symptoms
that the same effect would follow to the
other, but the process could not be con
tinued long enough without endangering
the life of him who was the first to faint.
Since the breaking out of the rebellion
the twins both dressed in the Confederate
gray, and both were members of the same
church, having united with a small Bap
tist church in their neighborhood, of which
they were considered very worthy mem
bers, though born Siamese.
