Wa bave noticed the formation of aimilar socie ties ia various parte of the country North and South, but wa believe thia ia tbe first one of the kind established io this Stato. Wa hope it may nut be the losi When properly otgauized and well conducted these associations are productive of much good iu a community. ' Tha practice is, at stated periods, semi monthly or monthly, for one of the member (r any man whom tbey may ap point) to deliver a lecture on some subject of prac tical uecfulneea, or scientific interest. Great bene fit ia derived from tbia practice. Firs', a taste for litersturels fostered, and a spirit of mental im provement excited not only io the members of the association, but amongst all who attend the lecture. Sucoiidly, such associations bsvs a direct tendency to cultivate the virtues, and nnurlsh frolina of au cial intercourse. In country towns these virtuea are seldom found to exist in a very flourishing state. It Dot unfrcqucutly hapfiens thai ditif-rences of opinion in religion and in politics go for lo inter ?rupt, if not destroy social intercourse in places like Hillsborough and 8alibury j but associations of tbia kind having reference neither to religious nor political disputation, bring ihe member of so ciety together on common groud without danger of a conflict of opinions, or at ka.t such conflict as can be productive of unkind teelings. ' At the North these associations are common to all towns, and there are muny in the nmie South am States. It is not uncommon for ihe mtckanie$ to form such societies, and fryjuenlly to invite able and distinguished mea of their own, or other ph cea to lecture. Wa recollect noticing that Mr. Woodbury only a few weeks ago addressed a 11 Mechanic's Association" in Wanliington, of me. where else. Much more might be said in favor of these So cieties, and nothing perbapa against tliem, but we have no idea of exploring the subject at present, having already ' bmgthened beyond our intention tbe few remarks which wa proposed to throw out only by way of attracting the attention of our cit iznato the u! ject, with lite hope that some of thorn will make a move in the matter, and follow the laudable example which Hillsborough husjuit set us: , ' HUlsborough Literary Association. , u On Thuradav eveoinff IsaL a number of the citi- sens of this villsge met at the Presbyterian session house ha- the purpura of tormiog a literary society for the promouoo of social intercourse aud mutual im provement.
