in the City, our Police are on hand TO pre-
vert such tricks as are wont to be commit
! ted-the exchange Of sign boards, for instance
or the ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF carriages and even the
barricading Of thorouslfares. In the country il is
no unusual thing .oT the early traveller on the fol-
lowing morning 10 be stopped by Post-and-raii
fence running directly acruss the road while his
eyes are diverted by the appearance Of buggy
brought up in the boaghs Of tree, or an embor
raised heier lowing from tie top OF a neishborins
barn. The sober sense Of our community, bow
ever is making way against these relies OF ances-
trail customs. and the Eve, with all its more limo
cent rites OF maids that practice mysterious spells
TO cet sight OF their future husbands faces, will
soon pass out of all memory except such as lives
orever in the bale, warm ndhon4eiy iireside PIC
lures ofBurns.
