"Go1NG THROUGH THE MOTIONS From the {. Genealogy of the Wetmore Family" work recently printed, we extract the following anec- dote of Rev. Izrahiah Wetmore, of Stratford Conn:
 "When the news of the surrender of Gene ral Cornwalls to General Washington reached stratford, it was Sunday, and during the hours of worship. Word was immediately taken te the pulpit, where Parson Wetmore was engaged in delivering his discourse. Drawing himself up to his full height, and making known the in, telligence he said" My friends, the house ol God is no place for boisterous demonstrations sG we will therefore, in giving hree cheers oniy so go through the notions. That the motions oasie "Gi given with an emphasis, the reader w.. wlli e,ss
 imagine, and to the congregations oI the presen saf day, given to applause, it may convey a "'''" hint"

IKE PARTINGTON's VACATION.

IIuI.-Tor August 3l, 1861.
 DEAR BoB Fully for vacation. I'm having the tiptoprescc time you ever see. Unle Natht was as glad to see me as he could be- for he's a cross old curmedgeon, and makes the boys toe tho mark tell you. He said he hoped I'd be good, and l said l shouldn't Ie anything else He whispered something to Aunt Iietty, and looked at me, but didn't seem to mind it. He's got new horse that is Very old, and prctends he can't be got along unless you push him with a whip. It is all sham, for l stuck brad into a stick and touched him with it. and he went like smoke. He kicked his hind heels through the dasher, broke the wagon and landed me and Bill into the ditch. Uncle Nathc said he could. mt see what had got into the beast, but guess it was the brad, though 1 thought it wasn't best to mention it.
 We had fag-raising here yesterday It was big fun you'd better believe. We hadn't any flag; so l got one of Aunt Hetty's sheets, and painted blue square in the corner with her in digo bag, and chalked out some stars then got Uncle Nathes pot of red paint that he marks his sheep with, and made some elegant stripes and the flag was done. We took bran new cod-llne of Uncle Nathe's for halyards, then cut down nice little maple for pole, and nailed it upon the barn.
 One of the neighbors went down and told Uncle Nathe what we were doing, and lie came up from the meadow as mad as hop. I see hy the way he acted that he was secessioner. He took down the flag we had consecrated, and I couldn't stand it; so made him speech and told him the flag he had pulled down was the emblem of our right to do as we pleased, and he had better be careful how he trfed with the spirit of liberty. I'd better not said it, because all of us boys had to go to bed without our SUD- per that night and Aunt Hetty gave us talk ing to about the sheet. What a fuss folks make about triaes
 But we had some fun next day with Uncle Nathe. He's got big, white rooster, that he sets everything by. So we caught him and col ored one of his wings blue and the other red and he looked as fine as anything you ever saw The hens didn't know what to make of him, and they all seeded. When Uncle Nathe came home, the first thing he saw was his crower, who got up on the woodpile and yelled " Yankee Doodle Do," as loud as he could bawl Uncls Nathe didn't know what to think of it at first but when he saw the fun of the thing, he didn' laugh any.
 I wish you was up here ; if you were, we would train round, guess. There's plenty of berries and lots of birds, and Uncle Nathe has got gun and two pounds of powder, and there's [ boat in the pond, fine fishing, and everything tt make fellow comfortable. Can't you stea away and come up here, and make 'em thinl you've gone to the war? Yours in clover, IKE PARTINGTON. -bosto" Saturday Evening Gazette,
