The annual Kast< r festival of Chrisj Church
Sunday School will be hold sit 3 o'clock next
Sunday afternoon.
The Methodists will hold their usual festi
val to-morrow evening, in the church par
lors.
There are about 50 sets of Applcton's Cy
clopedia owned in this place. There are as
many more families where the work should
be found.
The friends of Temperance arc invited to
meet in the basement of the M. E. Church
at 3 o'clock this afternoon for a, conference
with Prof MOFFAT, in regard to„ temperance
work.
A couple of worthless tramps ended at Dr.
PliATT's Saturday evening, and after being
furnished with something to eat commenced
an assault on the Doctor's colored niau. The :
tramps were arrested and will have to answer !
the double charge of assault and battery and !
violation of the tramp law, this morning.
The success of those publishers who have |
sought to supplant the \ icious juvenile peri-!
odlcal literature of the time, by the pnbliea- J
tion of juvenile periodicals as interesting as j
the bad ones without being bad, is bearing j
fruit in the multiplication of such periodicals. 1
The first two numbers of Golden Days itidi-1
cute the purpose of the publishers to supply j
a weekly periodical, not only unobjectionable ;
111 its moral tone, but actively upon tin* side I
of piety, which shall nevertheless have all the
interest that less wholesome publications
have. Its staple literature will be stories of
out-door life and adventure.
It is not difficult to discern those homes
where real happiness dwells. Like sunshine it.
radiates each living tiling within its influence.
You sec it in the husband's careworn face, in
the genial hearty expression that tells of
domestic peace, though the buttle for bread
be long and fierce; in the wife's serene coun
tenance, though she be a mother and full of
care; in the tender concern for her children;
in the involuntary caresses that bespeak a
heart full of tenderness and deep thounhtful
ncss for hor possessions and exceptional
blessing.
Its beautiful influence pervades everything;
even disorders its gilt-edge with a suggestion
of comfortable relaxation. Reproof becomes
only a definition 01 right, without the sting of
anger, bearing 110 more similarity to harsh
ness than a budded leafy branch to the shorn
switch of "ye old time" discipline.
Lastly, it is evident in the homely •ourtcsy
current among the members of the family,
that shows however transient a visitor it may
be elsewhere, here, it is rooted in affection and
habit, and will abide for all time.
Who is it? The Eltnira Telegram says that i
one of our faithful bank clerks and a Fourth j 1
street maiden, have a matrimonial alliance in >
contemplation.

PnoF. MOFFAT wi! lecture on temperance j
in the l'reshyterian ( hurch this evening.
JIM MITOIIKI.L, of Canton, spent yesterday j
with friends in this place.
C. If. ALLEN and family spent Sunday with ,
friends in Tioga county New York.
The M. Ik Church was densely packed last |
evening with an intelligent audience drawn
thither by the announcement that an eloquent j
Scotchman would lecture on temp-crane •
It was evident that something more than or-;
dinary was anticipated, and none went away j
disappointed. The speaker, I'rof. MOFFAT, |
(Lineral Agent of the Temperance Alliance— ,
an organization which aims to unify and uti:-
ize the efibrin of all temperance societies—j
took for his text the following passage from !
the 2Sth chapter of Isaiah:
<i (Jive ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken ,
ami hear my speech. Doth the plowman ,
plow all dav to sow? Doth he open and break j
the clods of the ground? When lie hath made j
1 plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad
the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and east:
in the principal wheat and th" appointed bar-j
ley and the fie in their place?"
To understand the full force and meaning;
of these words if. must, remembered that ;
the Prophet had been denouncing the nation- 1
al sins of !<rael, the most glaring and prond-;
pent of which was intemperance, and conelu-1
ded bv making use of this familiiar truth 11 i
!
practical agriculture to more pointedly lllus- j
trnte the important tnitli that means must be |
emplvodl to the accomplishment of an end. j
If intemperance is to lie eradicated from this j
land, the evil must be thoroughly understood 1
and the proper remedy applied. Men seem j
to overlook the simple fact that drunkenness 1
is the result of drinking; that in order to cure j
tlie evil the cause must he eradicated. The j
fashionable and moderate drinking images of :
j soeitv occasioned all the drunkenness; the 1
j moderate drinkers should be held responsible |
for the degrading and demoralizing effects of j
| drunkenness. The cost of sustaining the Mo
j loch intemperance could not f * met with,
j property, it must have human victims.and no ;
J family in the land was exempt from the <|e-1
| mands of the demon, so long as the monster !
j wTis tolerated. The speaker said ids innate j
I Scotch principle of 44 fair play," would not;
j permit him to lay all the sin at the door of t lie i
j rum-seller; the example of the respectable
1 drinker, who could leave it alone when he 1
j pleased.was more reprihcnsiblo; he was doing ,
the de\ il's work without remuneration, while !
the seller engaged in the nefarious trafic from i
the hope of pecuniary reward.
The Professor emphasized his powerful and
eloquent arguments with apt illustrations, j
and held the large audience spell-bound for j
an hour and a half by his vivid word pictures
and inimitable Scotch eloquence. The im
pression made cannot but result in lasting
good.
This brief and imperfect review of the
'' able and logical discourse, affords hut a faint
i outline of the matehh ss effort. The I'rofes
-1 ! sor must be seen and heard tobi appreciated.

EASTFI: SI \ I> \ v.—Last year Easter Sunday
; came on the I.'lth of April, but this year it
1 will occur on the 2Sth of March. Easter is
1 the dav on which the Christian Church eom
f memorates our Saviour's resurrection. Eas
• ter is a word of Saxon origin, and imports a
1 goddess of the east. This goddess was
As!arte, in honor of whom sacrifices were
> annually offered about the Passover time of
> the year—the spring—and hence the Saxon
f name ".Easter," become attached by associa
-1 tion of ideas to the Christian festival of the
resurrection.
