Mr. Bald- Thanksgiving with.friends In this vH*4*w,n has ably tilled this position Tor the past wven years and his resignation at this time is entirely voluntary on his part, and is against the desire of the present District Attorney, and tlte can­ didates for Gen, Leake's position have also a*ked him to remain. But Mr. Baldwin having decided to start ont on his own hook In his chosen profes­ sion, will open an office at 99 Washing- ten Street. Chicago, where he will be prepared to attend to law business In any part of the i» «H the Courts, State and Federal, and also in the United States Supreme Court. He Is a young man of rare legal ability, and with the advantage of his practice In Che bfltce which he is soon to vacate, we bespeak for him unbounded success in his new ftetd.

J B Ken wick et nx te R M Patrick, m deed. It is always gratifying to meat genial spirits la one of n»y tambles I took in Cryatal Lake and Nunda, on We«inesday last, and must say it prepared my digestive organa for a hearty: relish of my plain but enjoyable Thanksgiving^ •a the following day. Well, on • y route the! Ir»t objeet that attracted my attention aa peculiarly new were the new out-bnildinga on D. W. Robinson's farm, eecnpled by Clus. Cornish, It had the appearance of humanity toward the animal. And a little farther on. Just across the way, the large new bam of H. Rieo was approaching rapid completion and bf tho way David Kern shoved the jack piano I conclude he waa the tiosa of the Job. Paaa- ing on, buildings of less pretentions pleased the vision as testimonials of industry and thrif^. But the most attractive evidence was the splendid new Public School edifice now in prpeess of completion .about midway between the two towns, situaM^ a superbly beauti­ ful site as a bond of Kn fer the rival vil­ lages, and I give it as the opinion of one who haa made educational natters a life study, that in not one thing have thecitlzens of those tlu-lfiag towns shewn greater wisdom than in joining hand, heart awl purse so good a cause. Aud I thiuk the one great error if any there be, will provo a lack of rooir, as a school property conducted, on such a magnificent site with such surroundings will reeeive a patronage that will fill to overflowing, com­ modious ai It is and soon the ery will he "more room." Xor did I slight tho oil Pickle fkotory, the old pionesr building which, dilapidated as it Is. has in days pone been a sourae of welcome income to many a poor family. And as I gased on the idle, vast In extent, briek boildinga, 1 was impelled Inwardly te exelalm, woe worth the day when ambition lured the operatora from economy to extravagance. Mr. Wilson, Jr., explained to me the aotioa of a separator which sorts the pinkies into three sites, via: small, medium and large. At the Wood Heuie my dinner was all that heart could wish, and my Fiiley es pressed herself entirely satisfied with her treat at the stables. Nor did I fail to be attracted into the Herald office and here to my astonishment 1 found my genial old friend, ex farmer, ex- merchant, ex-justice and ex-postmaster, D. C. Mallory, playing the "devil," and that, too, in the very presence of Parson Conly, who by the way J tennd to be not at all disturbed at tlie canduct of this '•old boy" who, within the last few months lias plied his nimble fingers as type-setter. Xow about the Herald: It's littie, to be sure, but look at the stufllng of it. What other local paper furnishes its readera with more news? Awwer me that, now. 1 Incidentally mentione i the subject of in­ surance in the presence ot Dwight, and what do you think? Why, he sent me over to Geo. ford's, telling me George wanted to insure. Hoover I went, but George had been-insured for months; but I had the pleasure of seeing a good flel i of corn, which was yielding abund antly in quantity and quality. But that did not help Dwight's "truth and veracity." Nevertheless I forgive him, as ho meant well.
