J WHY HOT ABATE THE HTJISAN0E1 EDITOB ISTEU.IOENOBK : Now that a new Town Council hos been inducted into office it will be expected to project reforms ot some kind, ou the principio-that a "new broom ol?*n." While it is commendable to seek the convenience of the people in patting a town clock upon the steeple of tho Court House, it IB equally incumbent to prevent tho inconvenience of any portion of the community. A" nuisance of long atanding is the murkot bell, which is caused to ring at a most unreasonable hour in the morning, and which does not avail the sup posed purpose of ita ringing. It is an an noyance to several families, who are entitled to consideration, and dees not meet the ob ject desired in giving publicity io thc fr.v? that beef is in the market, except to the very few who aro in close and uncomforta ble proximity to tho market-house..

Consequently the attendance waa largo. Great interest was mamrested on tho part of each school in studying and acti vating local music, and notwithstanding the heat of the weather has been oppresslvo most of tho time, wo were favored with a large attendance and tho best of arder. Wo proposed to the different schools the pro priety Of organising a singing cub or asso ciation, to bo called the singing association of Brushy Creek township. All .the schools, with many others concurring, were invited to participate in ? selecting officers, which resulted aa follows : J. W. Picken?, President; J. B. Griffin, Vice President; J. B.
