04/11/1832 Mr. Editor, Will you have the goodness to say something through your valuable paper, in relation to the practice of taking dogs to church. We who visit the places of Divine worship, are very much annoyed by the growling, fighting, and ill-bred conduct of the canine race, on a very Sabbath day. It cannot be considered so very genteel to see gentlemen or ladies traveling to church with their dogs, and I would recommend the utility of tying them at home until after church and Sunday school hours have passed. This, I hope, will not be neglected in future.

We are also disturbed by some children, who regardless of every admonition, are constantly running about the house in time of worship, much to the confusion of the congregation, who are disposed to attend the word of God. Parents who cannot control their children at such times, would do a service by leaving them at home. The infant of tender years will derive but little benefit from an indulgence of this kind; and it is to be hoped that more authority will be exercised in future by parents and guardians, over them.

A friend to good order in church
 
04/11/1832 Mr. John Grigg has been appointed Postmaster at Crawford C.H., vice James Wilson, resigned.
