I TH E %Q of Education having president, with Rny Greene Soling of Bed lord, ~Mass., secretary. WE observe by our St. Lawrence counly exchanges tnat Hon. L. C. Lang of Brasher Falls, is a candidate for re- election for the office of District attorney for that county at lh^ ensuing fall election. Wa are glad to hear this. Mr. L. is a gentleman possessing high attainments in the legnl profession, at least so we have been told by reliable members of the bar in our own county. We feel sure his re- uominHtiou will be received with delight by bis many acquaintances and friends in this part of the country, W. H. DANIELS of Ogdeosburg, N Y., the well-known manufacturer find d ealer in confectionery, crackers, biscuit, etc., has an advertisement in this issue of THE SUN, announcing the prpthietmn and placing before the public of a new line of crackers to be known as the* •' Cerealine.'' The manufacturer claims some excellent features for this new venture in the food liue,and solicits a trial on the ground of shing properties as well as so sipid ubout the size of bungtown copporu. and three times as thick and CKII \t butter. I assure you it is a pretty poor apology fur the geuuioe-^-tastelesH and fiat. They do not S3lt their meats—such as beef, noutiou, fresh pork and such when cooked; you- must do that yourself. And baked beans. Have not seen a genuine, right down good old fashioned baked bean since we came here. Guess they do not have any. AU their meats are cooked in sweet herbs* and are sickish in the extreme; although cooked tender and look very nice, yet cooked so differently from our usual and customary cookuig that they are highly unrelishuble to Americans. They have very few bright warm sun- shiny d«ya in England in summer or tiny other lime. Mostly cloudy, cool w?atiy>r, with damp air. Their baying is principally over now. It takes three to four d*ys to cure h iy after bein£ cut and turned and tedded twice each day at that. They have farming down to a tine degree of science and mathematical method.

THE whole expense* incurred in pet ting up the recent highly successful Fourth of July celebration in Fort Covington were contributed fcy our villagers and several atriotio and willing residents of Fort Cov- taught iu the Academy here,and is credited with being an instructor of excellent at- tainments. The Board held a meeting Tuesday evening for the purpose of ap- poinH'njj a successor to Mr. Cheney and after a short deliberation adjourned with- out taking . action—in <be matter. The Tacancy wiil be filled in a few days. IT is with no small amount of pleas- ure for us this week to ndd the name of our esteemed young friend, R. L. Murchj- son, B. C. L., to the old and popular I; w firm-of Archibald McCormick & Dyclos, of Montreal. Mr. Murchison being a Dun- dee boy, we also feel assured that tbi s fortunate advance movement in the career of a young gentlemen of whom all its people feel so great an interest, will give infinite satisfaction. We believe Mr. Murchison has well earned this recognition from the firm for whom be has been a faithful student and assistant for a series of years. The gentleman has our best wishes f\ a long and brilliant life iu th< profession of hi* choice, a»d lor which we feel confident he is so Well adapted. SOLON STORM, Commi^ioner of Highway* for our town, informs.us tnat he haa given the contract for the construction of.ihe Barry bridge at the Little Salmon to M. A. Nush of Fort Edward, N. Y., who also will repair the one taken off last spring at the same place, and put it up on Drum street. Mr., Storm says the new bridge will be the beat iu struciure yet built the town, and that the job has been let in a manner which he feels sure wiil prove Biuiifactory to the taxpayers generally. As a bridge builder Mr. Naah is well and favorably known iu Fort Coviugton, being if we mtstftke not, the constructor of every •iron bridge spanning its several str«a«u. Mr. Storm tells unthut the contract calla \» Sot on or before October first. of the, brid^ «* BsrryV ingtou Centre. The intention of the pro- moters of this jubilee was to make it a grand and pleasant affair, free to every- body who choose to participate, without fee or price, and as such it was carried through to the letter. No gate charges, no entrance fee in order to enjoy any of its privileges ; consequently there were no prospects of securing sufficient funds from that source to cover incidental expenses,— no: even with an idea, of getting enough to reimburse the subscribers with a hand- some dividend as was the case in Malone last year, and maybe this. Now, the committees find, aft«r settling up all the obligations incurred that the celebration coat them a smtll amount more thnn had been subscribed and paid in. To raise this sum it has beeu decided to hold a lt>wn social at the head of Water Street* opposite the residences of Allen S. and P. A. Matthews to-morrow (Friday) evening, July 22. The grounds will be tastefully arranged for the occasion, and ic« -cream and other refreshments will ba served in abundance. The orchestra and Excelsior Cornet Baud will be in attendance, and a first-class promenade concert may be de- pended, upon as one of tbe interesting features of the evening. All this simple and amusing enjoyment in the way of refreshment and amusement will be sup- plied at the low charge of twenty-five cents. We sincerely trust our villagers generally will make it a point of duty to lend a helping hand upon this occasion, aud thus evince a desire to sustain* those who tncriGced a trifl* in making Fourth of July Celebration in Fort Covingtoo this THE order-for some time in opera tion by the Dominion government com- pelling vessel owners to pay $1 for every entry made from or to United States potts\ has been rescinded by the government so far as terry steamers are concerned. AN exchange says it will be the fushion this summer for girls to nib cheeks instead of kissing. This rale applies, of course, only to girls meeting each other, and will bo suspended when they encounter something better to kiss. IT appears that borne timo ago the: trustees of the Union church at South Bangor secured an injunction restraining Rev. N. M. Capron from holding services therein. Argument on a motion tn tet aside the injunction was had before Judge Tappan. The judge has just handed down his decision, which is against Mr. Capron. Tbe pulpit of the church is now occupied by another pastor. OGDENSBUno papers announce that at a meet ing oi the presidents and secre- taries of the several Northern New York agricultural societies recently held in that city, C. B.

REGARDING the hop market the New York Bulletin says: LOCHI trading is still confined mainly to small lots of such goods HB may be required to meet brew- ers' oriers or delivery on previoua sales.

The New Yo>k shipments only increase from 382,866 boxes l»»t year to 429,759 boxes this year which is an increase of les* than 10 per eent; but it must be taken into ebu&idetatuui that the buying for iho Montreal mark* in New York haa increased vastly during the pas* few yoarg, owing %< the oheaper freights, and that it i« not so much the increase in the production in the Dominion aa it is the increased shipment* from the northern part of this state.
