Bells ringing all the way,
Money spent and thrown away
Sure there is the devil to pay,


When man goes out a seghing.
So sung ''peick" yelrs ago, and so sung
several L,dies and Gentlemen who were
'spille "ina street in the upper part o. the
city yesterday. Speaking of sleighng there
has been quite "merriee" time in this city for
day or two past among the lovers OF that kind
OF sport. Che party who were the occupants
OF a double barreled If ,ir watch was drawn
by two splendid horses provided themsrl> es
martial music and made the reets vocal with
the rattle OF the drum, The shrill piping Lotes
OF the file and the merry jim .le of a score or
two OF bells. Another party were provided
with trumpets and various other ciamorous
Instruments and made the welkin ring With
the music OF their Instruments. Numerous
other parties who were accompanied by laCfes
awakened attention BY the merry shouts OF
laughter which attended ;heir rapid move
ments. Altogether the ladies and gentlemen
WHO have invested i'll his kind OF sport have
had a "grand good time'' and will no doubt
feel sorry when the snow is gone. We know
of one party who after driving about until they
were chilled thu ough, visited Allyntown Tor
the purpose OF consoling themselves with a
wee drop of.tae creeter, and while thus engaged
were left to walk to their respective homes
because Of the sudden and unexpected depar-
tu1e of their team. We noticed also several
sleighs from the country Oh The street, which
had been forced into service Tor the double
purpose OF ALLOW ing the eXcursionists to have
a ride over the snow and giving pthem an op-
portunity OF having 'snopping" expedition.
The merry jingle of the sleigh bells were
heard upon the street until a late hour last
night, and again this morning there was fair
represe NATION of ladies and gentlemen who
were "making hay while the sun Shines or
rather who were sleghing while the sun did
not shine.
