OWEN, of this village, la new engaged Painting some very superior pictures, whieh we had Inten­ ded to speak of at length this week, but time and space will not permit, but shall do so next. As we have before said, Miss Owen has few equals and no superiors as ;a Portrait Painter, and anyone who loves to see a line Pain­ ting should not fail to call when in McHenry. THERE are lightning rod men around. What have we done that Providence should again afflict us in this way? It |a a calamity, unfortunately, which cannot, like the smallpox, be stayed by vaccination, nor can it be quenched with water, like ^conflagration. nor can it be overpowered by armies, like aTgbelUpn. Let the lightning strike as if it must,.but save, oh save .us jfrpm thellghts*iyjr0d^e&1 Ws had always supposed that behind the screens one sees strung across the back end df a dress-making establish­ ment was where they kept the wood box and coal scuttle, and innocently enough we started to go behind one the other day, to spit.

WE are under obligation to Bobert Wright, of this village, for a copy of the Weekly News, pnbl ished at Auck­ land, New Zealand. It is a large twen­ ty-four page, five column paper, and contains reading matter enough to keep a whole family in reading for two or three days. In it we learn that in Oc­ tober they held their Floral Fairs and in January their Summer Races?, by which we conclude that the climate is a trifle milder at that time of the year than in McHenry county; W*. E. SMITH, late Postmaster at Woodstoek, and formerly the Edi tor and Proprietor of the Sentinel^ has pur* chased the interest of C. E.'Irwin, in the Drugstore of Wright & Irwin, In that city, and the mm is now Wright & Smith. Mr. Smith has experience in the business, and with his extended acquaintance and well known b.isiness qualifications, this already popnlar Drug House will loose none of its for­ mer popularity under the charge of the new Arm. His many friends «in this county wish him success. v THE Public school in this village closed the Fall Term on Friday last, and will have a vacation of one week, opening for the Winter Term on Mon­ day next, the 22d.

The Principal Mr. Baldwin, is sparing no pains to bring the school up to a high standard, and we are glad to know that with the aid of his assistant Teachers, Is succeeding to the satisfaction ot the patrons of the school.

The Prizes were eai'h a large Picture of the School BuHdi«g with the Scholars and Teachers as­ sembled in front. The pie ttires were taken by Ford, aud like all pictures that come from his.
