MORE SUGAR.-Let who will make
good, nice maple sugar, that which is
nearly as nice as crushed. and our YER
dict is that they cannot beat Mr.. C.
Cook Of Greensboro; if all he manu-
features is as choice and white as a
few pounds which he donated US last
week, for which we are obliged.
HARD TO TELL.-Since the above
was in type, Mr. Moses Hub bard of
this town has actuaHy placed upon
our table liberal quantity of maple
sugar, which an impartial Judgment
would say, compares very fayorabIy
with Mr.. Cooks, but we, though claim
ing to be impartial, must declare that
it is hard to tell which is the sweetest.

HoLLAND.-We are informed tha
on the 18th inst, seven young men il
Holland, called upon Mrs. Danfortl
and girls, whe have had the reputa
ton OF keeping a dow house" in tina
town, and after removing her furni
ture, completely demolished the con
story mansion" having RACED the sam
to the ground they applied tar an,
feathers to the two girls, who we lear
have fled for Canada. From report
there can be little doubt that tn
morals Of the Danforth house needle,

committee, for we should say that til
vigilant seven of Holland, carried tn
joke a trihe too far, not yet being abb

would warrant the application of ia
and feathers to the gentler sex, cha
acter and reputation notwithstanding!
