Fred is not a very good subject to guess on; can't tell whether an earn- est aPV 'rom a My would which wears off on a long acquaint ance. We will give a chromo to the 3'oung lady who can successtully halter Fred. PROF.

C. II. SYLVESTER. We guess that in the Prof, we have a hard subject tor any one to 'tackle" matrimonially. It is unfortunately evident that he does "catch pn" very readily, in fact, don't care for the girls as an agreeable, nce looking young man should.

Strange things, often Jmppeu, however, and we will say that thej'oung lady who successlully gets Herb around hanging on her papa's front gate two or three evenings in he week is to be congratulated. JAMES LEOXAKD. The fact in this case is that Jim must' get married. He was never cut out for a bachelor; is too genial and talkative to waste away in any such condition. We warrant a capture here if the "oung lady is good 'ook-ing $11(1 will work on affections, lis is abundantly able to take care of a wife, aud if we are not very much mistaken there is a bargain at Corner for, some young lady.

r. 310YVHT. One of the best "mashes" on the list; very interesting iq domestic affairs; flourishing mustache; never gets tired of talking; good provider; entertaining and ambitious. Will would make a home as comfortable as any young man we know of, but there is one thing positive, he isn't afraii of "ghosts." The happy womau iu his case may foreswear corsets forever. Dlt.

I. K. D03YXS. There is uo possible use, wepie-suine, to go into details in regard to Porter, as judication shows he has it very bad already, iu fact, common rumor reports him completely gone. We are "yfciy happy to state that it would be a complete loss of time lor any young lady to adjust her cap in this direction, WILL GRIFFITH.

TOPLIFF. Good nature (when the mailes are ou time); killing mustache; age unknown; blushes easily; ''air talker: easily wnuuded in the heart; We know James- to, be anxious, and he should receive encouragement from our fair ones. WILL 31. BLAKEXEY. Will M.

Tlie idea of a man of his good quality sliding along to-warus the 'forties dnd ant We are astonished when we think it. Haudsqine; the very best of hab-itsj no "lodge nights," in fact the bet possible fellow you could imagine. ROBERT MAXWELL. Bob can hardly be classed with those who are taucy free. H2 is partly spoken for, and if it were not for his extreme bashful les he would long ago been enjoying the comforts of a lounge near the stove, accom pauied by all of the other "little conveniences of home.

A little "pressure" brought to bear in the right direction will bring Bob to his knees, and we trust that our suggestion will occasion some one to at least try the experiment with him. DR. JAMISON VAWTER. Well, we dout know how about the Doctor. He is always too busy to give iruch attention to the matter ol love making, but we are of the opinion that a square business proposi tiona first class prescription, as it were 'would cause him to "tumble." He is worth the ttouble it would occasion to take him in.

A temperance on by the choir; prayer by P.ev. McClahahaii who remembered' earnestly the peace, purity and morality, ofr the people of Arkansas city, and the unflinching faith of our Governor on the temperance question. The Chairman then introduced the editor of the Golden Gate of Newton Kansas. Mr. Rood arose aud proposed to give a plain common sene lecture on the subject of temperance.

In the first place he showed clearly that saloons were not profitable to 'any community, and not wanted by the minority of citi zens, and the fault being ours if li cense are granted for saloons, showing the respectability of saloons, claimed they were made so by the majority of citizens over twenty one years of age, both male and female signjng petitions for saloons, showing clearly the wrong iu licencing saloons. Respectable ones as thev aie claimed to be by the great evil which grows out of them. Respectable men visit these saloons, ami respectab boys Qre not sl to observe this respectaljliity anil follow after, and he temptation are just as great in these respectable places, as in the most degraded, and think it no more harm in them pbn ing a hand than there is in these respectable men Indulging in playing and drinking, fhen the cry is raised if they can't et 'whisky at the sajppns by he glass; tiiake a dive at the drug stores tind get it 'by the pint or. quart. That is a lamentable fact ampiig men who are in, jibe habit of dunking to excess.

However we never see bovs nd young men. tipling iu and about drug stares and form "the habit of drinking liquors; that is he class we have a great hope of saving from becoming drunkards. He should love to avoid this evil. Statute says the city council in a third-class town may grant licenses by the majority of bonatide residents over 21 jears faVoring saloons. He showed' clearlv that the ladies throughout were iu favor of prohibition as they were the principle sufferers.

He highly favored the ladies organization on the temperance work. He never referred to saloon keepeis with any iutima of disrespect in onr city. They are men of culture, intelligence, refinement a.nd (means too) capable ol 'engaging in any legitimate business thaft tend to the elevation ot morality society and christian piety. He showed citizens had a right to examine tlie council docket 'and have these saloon petitions published if desired. Otiicial reports say that for twenty-thiee yea.rs; past deaths annually from drinks He produced strong arguments i favor ot prohibition that no man, t.oyu or country was ever ruined without the use of strong drinks, that no city endangered her future prospects by sustaiaiug morality, society and christian piety, and further our enterprising anil wide-awake country men was not disposed to drive twelve or filteen miles to do a few dollars and get a glas of forty whiskv.
