Their healing balm to wounded hearts will long be cherished in the memory of many in this community. A. LINCOLN KIBK, the Impersonator and Humorist, will give one of his en­ tertainments, for the benefit of the Mc­ Henry Public School Library, at theCity Hall, this Wednesday evening, Feb. 6th. Mr. Kirk holds a high rank among the platform entertainers of the'country. He has filled engagements in fifteen dif­ ferent States, and his work has received high commendation from prominent clergymen and college professorsftand from leading journals. His entertain­ ments are of a unique and novel charac­ ter and differ in many respects from the old hackneyed "elocutionary" exhi­ bitions. Tbe programme is arranged and given in a style peculiar to Mr. Kirk, and it contains many original adapta­ tions. He has an extensive repertoire* and can present an entertainment of miscellaneous selections adapted to all refined tastes, embracing gems of wit, humor and pathos from Dickens, Shakes­ peare, Riley, Trowbridge, Carleton and others. Do not fail to hear him, at the City Hall, to-night. WHEN you hear a man running down his home paper or any other local indus­ try;; take a good look at him. Ten to one he will have a chin as long as a rail, an eye as restless as a horse thief, and he will hitch around on his chair as though he had a touch of St. Anthony's dance. Talk with him a while and you will dis­ cover that he has made a failure of every­ thing he ever tried (except being disa­ greeable), and nine times out of ten is depending on the public for favors or support. You will find him of a meddle­ some. pe#Hsh, jealous, hateful, and unre­ liable nature; a man who is always qom- plaining and although he has but little if anything of his own, one would imagine to hear him talk, that he had a quit­ claim deed on the earth and a first mort­ gage on heaven. He knows everybody's business and why shouldn't he? He has none of his own to take up his time. Such people, like mosquitoef, were not created in vain, perhaps, but one fact re­ mains staple--they do not add mater­ ially to the pleasures ol conducting a legitimate business. " t First rate sleighing now. Harry Lancaster left for New York oh Saturday afternoon, having received word that his father was very low.

The Ringwood Band has been reorgan­ ized and are meeting twice a week to practice. Good for the band boys. With the talent we have here there is no reason why we should not have a band as good as there is in the county, if not the state. Often we pick up a newspaper from the city and PPO an account of pome murder or holdup and the capture of the mur­ derers or footpads, as the case may be, and nine times out of ten you will find in their confession that it originated in a saloon or from "rushing the can," as the boys call it. As such things are of daily occurrence in the city we read them and they leave our tninds in a short time', but when we bring it right to home and have a man that calls himself a gentleman rushing cans of hard cider around town to the boys, we think that we are getting the ways of the city too fast. We do not claim that they would commit crime by drinking the stuff, but it might base an appetite for something stronger, and if a man as old as he i*» does not know any better, why, be should be told, aTnl we do not know any better way of telling him than through the PLAINDEALEB.

THEBE is a good deal of truth in this: A shoe dealer, says an exchange, has a theory of his own to account for the in­ crease of diphtheria and typhoid fever in the late years. He says: "You didn't hear anything about diphtheria forty orfltty years ago, did you? Typhoid fever was rare in those days, too. It's on account of wearing thin shoes. Chil­ dren go to school on a wet J ay and sit three or four hours in soggy shoes. It's the wet footed misery that brinta on a great deal o sickness." O- AN exchange says a farmer was arrest­ ed and fined the other morning for selling some adulterated milk, adulterated with only harmless water. He wore at the time a suit of all wool (?) badly adulter­ ated with shoddy, and boots whosesoles were adulterated with paper or wood shavings. For breakfast he drank adul­ terated coffee, his meat was spiced with adulterated pepper, his cakes puffed up with adulterated baking powder, his pickles soured with adulterated vinegar, his pie Was seasoned with adulterated spice, his wife was all out of sorts because ishe could not make good bread out of adulterated flour that was passed off on her as the ' best"; in fact, he saw and felt the effect of adulteration whi^hfver way he looked, and he had never hearftlofany of the adulterators being arrested and fined. Yet there are those who blame the farmer for complaining or being dis­ contented. ' THE grippe is raging in New York cits\ of a very aeaaiy kind and disastrous results aiy> Innkfid .for_by physicians there, ft)r.

They muBt keep their feet dry and avoid as far as possible the dampne«s arising from the street. Care to avoid exposure is the only way to prevent being attacked by it," This ad­ vice should be carefully heeded here by us all. Tbe grippe is one of the most in­ sidious and harmful diseases to which we are subject. K«al Estate Transfers. Recorded np to and including Jan. Si 1866.

The supposition that it is ten minutes later is a mistake. Young men are not excluded from the week- night service. The seats in the front portion of the church have been carefully examined. They are quite sound and may be trusted not to give way. It is quite legitimate to join in the singing. The object of the choir is to encourage, not to discourage the congregation.
