to The Choral Society held an excellent rehearsal on Monday evening. The great fugue in Bach's cantata, "Ein feste Burg," was sung through for the first reading, and the brilliant coronation scene called "Zadok the Priest" was sung with spirit. Four new members were admitted to the Society, and a resolution passed to admit no more new members the present season after the next meeting. This was owing to the inconvenience in procuring a supply of books for a constantly changing membersbip, and also because the May Festival music will require constant practice from now until May, and will not be furthered by "the entrance of new beginners. The Society has begun to erase from its lists, according to rule, the names of members who have forfeited membership by continued absences.
Congregational Meeting. The annual meeting of the Presbyterian church was held in the lecture room of the church Monday afternoon. Hugh McDonald was elected President for the ensuing C. T. Jamieson, Secretary, and M.
H. year, Crane re-elected Treasurer. Jno. 8. Kirby was re-elected member of the Finance Committee for three years, and Robert Sanders elected Trustee for three years.
Reports of the Treasurer showed a healthy condition of finances, and the Finance Committee reported encouragingly for the prospects of the coming year. Pathfinders. "Scraps" by the Pathfinders is patterned after the "Patchwork" of the Saulsbury Troubadours, and introduces many funny scenes. The party, accompanied by a darky servant, going on an excursion, arrive at the steamboat landing ahead of time, and the manner in which they fill up the time constitutes plot. Many of the parts were well played, and any one honestly wanting a good laugh would find an opportunity here.
The tumbling by the Milton Jaspers immense, and of a difficult type seldom equalled. Resurrectionists. On Tuesday night of last week the grave of a young man named Jones, who had but recently been interred at the Wm. Calland graveyard, near Springhills, was opened and the remains taken away. The body was dragged for a distance of nearly a half mile before being placed in a vehicle.
The young man was a resident of Springhills for many years prior to his death. A spring wagon and a carriage were known to be in close proximity to the graveyard, and are supposed to have contained the "resurrectionists." It is well known who the guilty parties are. A young student who has been in attendance at one of the medical colleges at Columbus, while at home during the holidays, had said that they were in need of a "stiff," and he intended procuring one before he returned. Some of the leading citizens of the vicinity have offered a reward for the return of the body or apprehension of the guilty partirs. SPECS, JR.
U. A. C. A full attendance, a special programme, and a manifestation of a desire to know even more than some who had made special preparation had time to tell, lent piquancy and added interest to the 1 last meeting of the Art Club. Miss Warnock had assigned the Greek ideal of Woman, as drawn from Sculpture; Mrs.
Sewall, the Dying Gladiator; Rev. Mr. Stone, the Apollo Belvidere Miss Ogden, the Elgin Marbles; and C. T. Jamieson, a defense of the Laocoon, Each discussion was followed by conversation on the subject treated, so that the hours passed rapidly.
Mrs. French read another chapter on Greek Art. Tne next meeting will be held at the residence of Prof. French, and the subject to be treated will be Roman Architecture. The third volume of Prang's illustrations, which is the last volume now issued, was on exhibition.
These volumes have already become of invaluable assistance to the members, and the succeeding volumes will probably be as necessary. Literary Notes. Literary Notes. A PAPER On "The Disadvantages of City Boys," by Rev. Washington Gladden, of Springfield, is announced for an early number of St.
Nicholas. The article is said to be based entirely on personal statistics gathered from a hundred prominent business men concerning their surroundings, habits of life, during boyhood. The statements thus collected will, it is announced, exhibit a remarkable showing of the "Disadvantages of City Boys," and enforce strongly the author's hints toward a successful life. The paper, moreover, is addressed to the boys themselves. IN the Imperial Public Library at St.
Petersburg there are more than 400 portraits of Peter the Great, collected from every country in Europe. Mr. Schuyler has selected the one of these pictures best liked by Peter himself to accompany his of illustrated papers on "Peter the Great," which will begin in the February (Midwinter) Scribner.

The ladies of the Buck Creek Presbyterian Church, of which the Rev. W.
M. Claybaugh is pastor, recently sent a money draft to Rev. Dr. Allen, Synodical Missionary at St. Louis, to purchase a horse for a travelling missionary in that answer has been received that the money had been drawn, a noble horse purchased, and the missionary, instead of tramping it on foot as in the past, is now galloping over the prairies in swiftness and comfort.
Of course, many thanks were sent. to the Women's Missionary Society of Buck Creek for their noble gift, which enables this servant of God with ease to accomplish more work for the Master. The ladies of this same church surprised Mrs. W. M.
Claybaugh, wife of the pastor, with an elegant cloak and circular as a New Year's present. The Lord reward them for their work of love. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper will be observed in the Buck Creek Presbyterian Church, next Sabbath. Preparatory services, Friday evening, 64 p. and Saturday, at a.

The best gooods for the least money, is what he claims. An Eminent Specialist. In this week's issue of our paper, we publish the advertisem*nt of Dr. S. W.
Beall, Catarrhal Specialist of Troy Ohio. Dr. Beall is one of the oldest as well as one of the most prominent Physicians in the State. He has made a specialty of the study and treatment of Catarrhal Diseases for many years, and by minute investigations, vast research and large experience, has originated a system of treating Chronic Nasal Catarrh which meets with universal success. His advertisem*nt as published, contains numerous specimen testimonials from prominent citizens in his own home, which establish the fact fully that his specific constitutional treatment will cure this disease.
He is also fully indorsed by prominent citizens, and confidentially refers to any reputable resident of Troy, knowing as he does, that all recognize his ability as a Specialist and the merits of his catarrhal treatment. Dr. Beall condemns the theory that local treatment alone, will cure Chronic Nasal Catarrh, claiming that it i is a constitutional disease and can be cured by no other means than by constitutional treatment. He treats patients at a distance by the aid of a carefully prepared Diagnostic Blank or list of questions in answer to which their symptoms are accurately described, thus each patient is furnished with a course of treatment concerning all their particular symptoms, the importance of this feature we apprehend few persons of intelligence will likely overlook. We have personally perused the letters from which the published extracts taken and know them to be genuine, they are not solicited testimonials, but reports of patients, it being Dr.
Bealls costume to them to report at the close of each require, We have also taken the pains to peruse Dr. Beall's treatise on Nasal Catarrh and find that it contains matter of interest to all who are afflicted with this dangerous disease. In conclusion we will say that none need hesitate to apply to Dr. Beall for treatment, they can rest assured that he is as he represents himself--an educated Physician and an eminent specialist. "The Coming Man." Mrs.
Livermore fully sustained her reputation in her lecture, the filth in the Champaign Course, delivered last Thursday night at City Hall. Mrs. Livermore talks without notes, and while holding her audience for over two hours, it was like a social conversation in which some one with something to say had said it in the most attractive manner. She began with a rapid sketch of the rise of the arts and civilization in the various nations of antiquity, giving a view of the distinctive features of each. Coming on down to the present day, she dwelt with vivid eloquence upon the state into which the Society and civilization of today have been brought through the almost miraculous inventions, upon which we already look with indifference, The coming man was treated in regard to his improvement in brain power, his circ*mstances, his implements and material for work, and lastly, in his home.
This last part of her lecture was as much a plea for the "coming woman" as a description of the coming man. She pleaded for co-operative housekeeping. Cheesemaking, weaving, spinning, a large part of tailoring, and even a part of kitchen jurisdiction have been banished more or less from the home and taken from the housewife's list of cares and burdens, and the lecturer would see the laundry and entire culinary department also delegated to professionals. This was urged on the ground of economy, health, and the family. Housekeeping on this co-operative plan would be cheaper.
The result of the experiment was already on record. Mistresses of households are being fretted to death, cooperative housekeeping would remove the most fruitful cause of irritation and worry. Children need more of the mother's care and attention which are now given to housework. Mrs. Livermore lectures to instruct, and haply there may have been hints in her address which may improved to the advantage of wives and mothers.
It will do to think about, however, by all. Installation. This evening the officers elect of Harmony Lodge and Urbana Chapter will be installed, the ceremonies to be held at the First M.

The old year, with all its joys and sorrows has passed away, and in its stead we have the prospective year of jubilee for a certain class of pseudo- American citizens who are anxiously awaiting some political Moses to lead them out of the wilderness, yet forty years more will they wander through their multitude of sins, unless something different from their present style of serpent be vated, as evidence of their faith. 1879 had its events, some that will long be remembered, not only by individuals, but by the public generally.
The year commenced with perhaps as cold weather as our people were ever called upon to endure, or nearly so, and its close was just the reverse. The cold, backward spring, and consequent difficulty in starting a corn crop, will long be remempered. The extreme dry weather in the fall, and the general scare among the farmers in regard to the wheat crop will long be remembered. Snow fell only upon twenty days of the year the fewest number of any for the last twenty-one years. The last snow of the past winter fell upon the 3d of April, and the first of the preset season on the 24th of October.
Rain fell upon seventy-eight days of the year. This is the only year within our knowledge, that rain did not fall every month of the year. For a space of forty-three days not a drop of rain fell, viz; from the 27th of September, until the 9th of November. This we believe has no parallel in modern We are of the impression that the Careysville correspondent is laboring under a wrong impression as regards a certain Sheriff doing certain acts just on the eve of an election to secure certain fellows who were "going back on him." We happened to be present and know of one generous act that Sheriff did, namely; to give his bottom dollar to the starving wife and children on the day he arrested the Third annual reunion of the CITIZEN GAZETTE reporters, to which the Union-Democrat reporters have been invited, will take place at the Weaver House on Saturday, January 24th, precisely at 10 o'clock. We hereby request a full turnout of the representatives of both papers, and would suggest that as fast as you arrive, that you register in order that we may be fully informed as to the number likely to be present.
The plan suggested by "Eureka," of the Democrat, will be carried out to the letter, as regards expenses. These meetings have hitherto been of more than ordinary interest, and we have great hope that this will excel its predecessors. We hope to see the old wheel horses present, such as Uncle Billy Haller, Judge Patrick, and our venerable friend from Adams township. In the event that any are omitted in the line of special invitations, this general invitation will cover any unintentional error in that direction. Rally boys, rally, as per holiday season closed with a festival at the church with a large crowd in attendance, the net proceeds being about $125.00.
The result of these gatherings has been of a twofold nature, a kind of missionary tendency. Our leading brother promised to give each of his class a Bible, in the event they did not patronize the festival, and so far as we are informed, fulfilled his promise. On the other hand, the patrons of the festival, thought they would be equally as persevering in the distribution of the word of God, hence presented their wayfaring brother with a copy of the Bible.

In our Agricultural column will be found a communication of interest to farmers, friends of the Champaign County Fair, and the citizens of Urbana.
Something must be done in this matter, and plans are in order. The Urbana Guards went to Columbus Monday to swell the inaugural procession. They were accompanied by a large number of friends and admirers of Gov. Foster, returning at an early hour the following morning. The History Class in the Urbana University School for Girls enters this week on the study of Grecian Art, an interesting time for new pupils to enter.
The lectures occur in the rooms on Reynolds street at 3 p. Mondays and Thursdays. To-night the Young Americas hold their annual reunion, banquet, and ball. Past years have given the Young Americas high standing among our festal giving parties, and this meeting of our protectors promises to be up to the usual high standard. We notice our young friend Smith Pence, of Concord township, has entered upon the study of the Law, at Columbus, Ohio, in the office of Converse and Woodbury.
Mr. P. has been a close student all his life, which eminently fits him for the legal profession. Prof. French informs us that the work on the apparatus for use in demonstrating his lectures is progressing favorably, and that it will not be long until he shall be able to annoance the date of his first lecture.
The first one will be given, probably, in about two weeks. Thursday last a dog belonging to Mrs. Marshall, made things interesting on South Main street, by going mad, and scaring the people. A chase ensued, the dog had not time to bite dangerously, and, after a run it was slain on J. Campbells premises, by Wm.

Considerable was done in the way of reminiscence, but actual details were difficult of access. The Kingsleys held their first meeting for 1880 at the residence of Jno. W.
Ogden, the "rendezvous" on Scioto street, last Tuesday night. A number of invited guests were present, and a delightful evening was passed in special exercises, with music, singing, games, and the "light fantastic." The rumored elopement from Mutual, reported two weeks ago, proves to have been an error. Decision on the trip was premature, and the sensation, so accurately described by some papers, must be recalled. This reporting events and afterwards correcting them makes matter for the papers, but it makes life uncertain. We were informed of the event by several parties who seemed to be well informed.
One evening last week a little girl by the name of Moss was assaulted by a loathsome creature in the shape of a man, who attempted to outrage the child. He was fortunately baffled in his efforts, the child fighting him off until she could cry for help, when he fed. Had the brute succeeded, he would have been hunted till found, and innumerable lynchings testify what fathers and brothers think ought to be the penalty of this inhuman crime. At the Catholic Fair now in progress the gold watch and chain, contested for by Mary A. Fennessey, Sarah Kennedy, Honora McEniry, and Maggie Downey, was won by the first.

Misfortune has come, or ill health overtaken us. Perhaps a cough has come upon us which threatens that dreaded of all diseases, consumption, and we feel that death is near.
With what joy should we be filled, then, when such a remedy as Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption is placed within our reach. It has cured thousands who were nearer the grave than ourselves and made their lives peaceful and happy. Asthma, bronchitis, hoarseness, loss of voice, difficulty of breathing, or any affection of the throat and lungs, are positively cured by this Wonderful Discovery. Now to give you satisfactory proof that Dr.
King's New Discovery will cure, if you will call at J. W. Anderson's Drug Store you can get a trial bottle for ten cents or a regular size bottle for $1.00. 5 The man who steps on a deposit of soft soap and glides swiftly down the front stairs is not dead, but slippeth. A LEETLE TOO MODEST.
A lady on the north side wishing to test the merits of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup thought it would never do the druggist in the name of "Bull."
