EDlTOB PLATNDKABitr--As your cor­ respondent from Solon mentioned the Library Association, two weeks ago. perhaps you will permit me to say a few words on tlie same subject. Now the truth Is that your corres­ pondent, and every one who signed that paper, signed-an agreement to pay the sum set opposite their names, "ami «uch fees and dues as the society may hereafter Impose." If your cor­ respondent is dissatisfied with any law of this society, the "more honorable way" would be for him to come like a man to the meetings aud ask for a change. If any of these from whom I col­ lected their subscription, want tiieir money returned, I will pay them my­ self and they shall give me a receipt for the same. Tours truly, ALEX. GARDNER.

EDITOR PLAINI>EALEU:--The season has onco more arrived when the sina)l boy with pockets and stomach filled with green apples cryeth for comfort and Iflndeth none. Picnics are also ripe and ready" to "pick," providing the young lady has "anything to wear." Or, perhaps, the young lady's mother has eaten too many green apples the day before so that the young lady is obliged to remain at home to take care of her. Many of ttye farmers are through with their haying, and are again tum- jng their attention to coaxing their corn to grow a little faster^ The prospect for a fine crop of small grain never was more flattering than at present throughout the entire wes­ tern States. Corn, though late, is com­ ing on finely, and with a favorable fall will make nearly or quite an average crop. On Thursday evening, July 20th, were gathered at the residence of Mr. C. J.
