fhs stars they were shining the II locked bright
A Jonathan wendell his footsteps one night,
With heart full Of pleasure, Of joy and Of glee,
TO the home Of the lady we wishing to see.
It was Saturday night. rather strange reason
To "court you may say but I'll give you the reason.
Bets father pious, regardful Of rule
A Baptist he was, of the seven day school,
And therefore, you see, this "Suuday" to him,
And to court on another night, 'twould be sin,
Twas on this same night his sold oman he sparked
And his ancestors backward as far as the ark;
And his boys and his girls should all follow his plan,
Or they never should marry woman man.
Hro came to the house, and he paused there
minute,
And looked In at the window to see who was In IL,
Then he knocked at the door, with very slight treuor
or knuckles; for he thro' the window astreamer
OF bright yellow ribbon; two yards--maybe more
Made into bow, which his girl always wore,
A sound issued out OF the deep chimney corner,
Chat Jonathan knew was the voice of old Horner,)
'Come n!" smother Nancy, now who can that be
Who is coming this evening our Betsy to seei'
lie opened the door, and with a low bow,
Saluted the parents with chow dc du nowf"
Now Betsy was bashful and when she did see
Her lover, her face grew red Is could bel
And then she turned pale, then grew o. bottle,
And she tremblcd, and shook like lombardy popple,
She did not rise up--indced, never stirred
And when he spoke to her, meier answered word,
lie thought she timd, afraid Of the old ones,
And thought it was proper to give them scolding,
So he talked Of rigidity till angry they Few,
And he found to his sorrow that that wouldn't do.
So he talked of the weather. his farm and his sheep,
Until he grew hoarse, and Bess fell asleep,
rAh me this won't do!' he exclaims with q sigh,
With revenge in his thoughts, but smile in his eye
Thought he, they are social and sharp as flint,
But VII at is tho they can't take the hint
But they did take the hint, and vanished at last,
And he gave long sigh of relief as they passed.
lie showed up to Betsy, and thought he would wake
her;
lie spoke--to no purpose--so briskly did shake her.
lie shook her, he shook her--the time It was ten,
When the clock struck eleven he shook her again.
Encouragement finally came to his aid,
And he firmly resolved not to waken the maid
With his hat he rushed out, saying, "AIorphens may
take her,
And ever since then he has been called SHAKER.

sunday school Pic Mic.

On Friday, afternoon, 18th, the people Of
Ballvile village and vicinity held a very
pleasant picnic party, for the benefit Of
their Suday school. Tho party met in n
fine grove adjoining the village and had a
pleasant time. Prayer was offered and a
short address made by the Pastor of the
Presbyterian Church of Fremont. A short
address was also made by Mr.. G. R. McCul-
loch, Superintendent of tho Presbyterian
Sunday School, Fremont, who presented
The Ballvillo Sunday School with small
sum Of money, which tho children of his
own school had devoted to that object. A
collection was also taken, and tho whole
proceeds amounted to SlS,36-tho object
being to raise funds for the purchase of
books.
Tho table was very fine in appearance
being laden with substantial and very
choice refreshments, among them some ex,
cellent peaches. We ate the best piece Of
cake then and there that VIC ever put into
our mouth. Tho whole affair passed of
very pleasantly, and everybody went home
feeling gratifed with it. May the Ballvillc
Sunday School long be monument Of
good, to the honor of all concerned in it
especially of its energetic lady Superintend

A GREAT TAX.

We wonder that our Catholic citizens do
not take steps to procure lot for burial
purposes nearer 10 town than their present
cemetery. The present one is some five
miles distant, and in case of death among
them tho funeral is necessarily attended
with large expense. For instance, the fu-
neral of young DoLAN on Monday last could
not have cost less than 500 for teams, be-
sides the loss of days labor. This sum
would have gone far towards purchasing n
cemetery within mile and a-half of the
village; and then it being conveniently
near, they could beautify and ornament it
There are many of our Irish citizens who
we know cannot be to such an expense
without seriously feeling it, and yet their
respect for their friends constraius them
to submit to it. In justice to themselves
and families, ought they not to procure a
nearer burial lotl

HOUSE BREAKING, THIEVES ABOUT
The residence of G. Doncyson was entered
on Tuesday night last and robbed of money
and clothing to 5000 and over. On going
home at night Mr.. D. took off his linen
coat, in the sido pocket of which was bis
pocket book, containing over $1o0, a check
on the bank for $35 and several county or.
ders, intending when he went to bed to
take out the pocket book. His shoes and
socks he left by his chair Before retiring
he saw that the doors and windows were al
fast and then went up stairs to bed, forget
ting his pocket book. In the morning he
found the window on the back porch open
his coat and money gone, his shoes and
socks also taken. The bureau had also
been robbed of all his own and his sons
Shirts his daughters jewelry, DC. Mrs. D
was not at home, and Mr.. D. does not know
but many other things were taken.
From the frequent petty depredations
committed in our neighborhood, we think
there should be night police established
in Fremont to protect our citizens. 1t is tc
be hoped that the vagabonds prowling
about to steal will find some man "on guard
who will give them charge of cold lead
Keep your doors and windows well fastened
and shoot the villains when you catch then
crawling into your houses.
