More wcdlocking. Peach-cobblers are ripe. A. D. Helman has gone to San Fran cisco in the interest of the Grangers. N. II. Clayton, who, this Summer, has been so successfully, engaged in teaching school on Applegate, is now making his relatives and friends hap py by a visitation. Saturday, the 28th inst., Rev. Mr. Frazier and Rev. M. A. Williams or ganized a Presbyterian church hero. They have twenty-two or twenty-three members. Messrs. Goodchild and Grubbe, Sr., were elected Elders, and Messrs. McCall, Goodchild and Walk er, Sr., Trustees. A largo congrega tion was at the 11 o’clock service on Sabbath, at which time Rev. Mr. Fra zier made an able effort. Again the undersigned is coreced by a sense of his high duty as a chron icler to record the conjugation of two of our friends, who were young and th— fairest. Mr, Geo. Baldwin and Miss Josie Nail were united in your city Sabbath last. They are sadly ✓ missed in our social circle. They have gone to Linkville to reside. We ten der our congratulations and hope that their “union may prove a blessing to them and many others.” The'first of the week Messrs. W. C. Daley and J. R. Tozer started on a hunting excursion. On the Dead In dian road, near Mrs. Phoebe Walker’s, they faced a plantigrade of the species Americ«nus Bearum, (as I am not proficient in Latinity, this may be slightly erroneous). The nimrods presented arms, and the aforesaid bear essayed to make a physical demonstra tion, but changed his mind and direc tion and came in a nth of escaping ; but a pop shot from our marshal made a finis. Messrs. Ro! ph, Prentice, Eubanks and Michelson, are each having con structed a neat residence, and James Ewing is materially modifying his. Such reports as this could often be made. They are not brown stone edi fices, but substantial cottage homes, each in a “green garden spot.” Our Ashland fathers seem to have the true American ideas of home and education. They regard the comfort, beauty and attractiveness of their dwellings as objects worthy of their most assiduous care ; and make the thorough, practi cal education of their children their continuous endeavor.
