Retired. With the Into term of
Court, our young friend Ulakely's term
as District Attorney expired. Mr.
Blakjly through his official term has
Conducted the business of his office iu a
praiseworthy mannev. In tho recent
trial of the Shawmut prisoners, espe
cially has he done nobly. Were it not
for the fact that his successor is well
known to bo a slai-jlil-forward, con
scientious, youn' lawyer, we should s:iy
that Mr. lilakeley's retirement was a
loss to our county.

St. Mary's. Duriug a recent visit
to this prosperous borough, wo were
struck with its businesslike appearance.
In almost every part of tho town could
be seen evidences of its onward mareh
in improvement. Business of ull kinds
seemed to bo brisk. Tho stores are well
filled with desirable goods. The differ
ent hotels were well tilled with guests,
and we do uot know when wc have sccu
so many people in one place with so lit
t4o rowdyism, kc. A spleudid hard
ware cjtalli.-diment has been lately start
ed in tho store formerly occupied by
Coyuo and McVcan, by a couple of iner..
chants from Warren, l'a. liut it would
bo losing our tbie and space to enu
merate. St. Mary's is one of tho most
prosperous town iti the Stat.j a uicc
place to live in, healthy in ull respects,
and what is bettor than all is Democrat,
io to the back bone. In the inmcdiate
vicinity of tho town arj two collieries,
employing tome lifjO hands. Iu the
northwestern part of tho town is situa
ted the Young Ladies' Seminary, under
the care of tho Heuedictino Sisters, an
institution widely known and well pat
roDized, and said to bo ono of tho best
in the Stato. We suppose there are 2,
