~ We last week made mention OF the
trial of tho editor of the Burlington Hook
cue for contempt of court. We learn that
the case has been disposed Of, by assessing
a fine of $50, against the said editor. The
Ea,ck-eye in commenting upon this decis-
ion says that "the claim which Judge CLAo-

by his petty fine of fifty dollars and refusal
to imprison, that he himself does not be-
lieve." Thus this glorious farce, has been

O. Through the politeness of mine host,
WERLICH, we had the pleasure of partaking,
with goodly number Of our citizens, Of .
sumptuous Thanksgiving Dinner at the
Robinson House. 1t were needless in US to
enumerate all the good things with which
the table abounded, or to recount our vari-
Gus adventures in the consuming line, suf-
fec it, that substdntials and delicaoies were
in great abundance, and served up in style
that reflected great credit upon the manage
ment of the House. As appropriate to the
occasion, we insert the following Expressive
stanza:
"Hsrk! the Turkies' plzintive cries!
Puddings rare and pumpkin pies,
Kissing, swelling,
Sweetly smelling,
Oyster memories upwelling.
With the sound!
Hail, THANKSGIVING! and good living,
May they everywhere abound!'
The Robinson House, under the manage
mcnt of our friend WERLICH, is bound to
flourish. 1t has been renovated and re6tted,
and is kept in manner calculated to rem
der it decidedly popular. The wants of
guests are properly cared for, and deter
mination evinced to render their sojourn be-
meath its roof, agreeable and comfortable.
Success to it, say we.
