I will take tbe liberty of speaking for Brother Parvin and myself at the same time hy saying we always welcome the mail, and tbe sooner it arrives the better it suits not ourselves alone, but all who are interested, and indeed who are not? The schodulo time fur arrivals nnd depart ures is: Leave Goshen daily at 7 a. in. Ar rive at Dexter at 11 o'clock. Leave at 12 and arrive at Goshen at 4. The contractor says that it would not suit him at all to leave Goshen for Dexter after the arrival of the local train from Roaebnrg, as you suggest. ery respectfully, 8. HaNDAKKK, P. M We kuow that postmasters Ilandsnker nnd Parvin desire their mail on Ihe quickest time possible, therefore called their attention lo the fact that if the overland trains do not deliver mill at Goshen the mail csrried on I hem for tbe Pleasant Hill aud Dexter post olHces will bo behitid one diy.

Women wiped tears from their eyes; men moved uneasily In their seats, and Clara Mor ris triumphed at the Academy nf Music last evening. She apieared in D'Ennery's play, "Renee De Moray," and played on the feelings of one of the most synithetio and apprecia tive audiences that this writer has ever seen in any Buffalo Theatre. Miss Morris has been seen here before in the piece, but her work last night clouded the former effort; It was a rev elation. Those little mannerisms of speech and delivery that we have been compiled to find fault with In times put were buried. She hate to a height of emotionalism that called forth spontaneous applause, pitying tears and generous hearted sympathy. Her acting struck a responsive chord in every heart and thrilled us by Its natural forcefulneaa and Intensity. Ons feels like apologising for describing such an effort as acting; it might more appropriate ly be terms I the natural work of a genius. ' Kenea De Moray Is one ol those plays that this nueen of emotional actresses fairly revels In. It gives her every opportunity for ths display of tbat bistrlonio power that has excited wondsr and admiration, and defied even carping criticism ever since she appeared on the stags. Its dialogue is clever, and its situations are as emotionally dramatic, as even Miss Morris warmest friends could ask. It would require more space than ran lie afforded to sieak In detail of Miss Morris' work in this piece, as it deserves. To do her justice it would he necessary to analyie and commend every bit of by play In the tint act that be trayed her jealous tear of losing ber husband's lovs. and hsr hypocritical attempt to convince htr mother that no such fear lurked in her heart. It would be necessary to applaud al most every gesture and every intonation of the voice that acoorapanled the lines leading up to ths strikingly-dramatic situations In the see ond act, when Kenee blackens ber own charac ter to save the hitherto-unsullied name of ber proud family. It would be necessary to re member the fourth scene from beginning' to snd In onler to describe faithfully and justly Kenee a pathetic scene with her father, the tu multuous vet touching scene with her husband. and the fearfully beautiful scene with her daughter. The magnificence of Miss Morris' work In these instances can not be dwelt on thev deserve to be: this criticism of it must end with sn acknowledgement of inability to do it justice in the space allotted. Buffalo Ex press. A certain number of guarantees for tickets must be given to secure the engagement of Miss Morns on Nov. 1st Our citizens should call on Mr. Craw at the postortice at once and leave their orders for seats so aa to secure this great actress for a performance in Eugene.
