ty MoviSa DAY.--0n Monday last our streets
were thronged from early morning until a late hour
with large and small wagons, carts, and all other
kinds Of vehicles that could be used In conveying
household goods from one point to another About
one-third Of our population seemed 10 be moving, and
there was hustle and confusion throughout the
town, Many families moved into better houses than
they had occupied and others got into worse ones.
Others and this season there are not few for the
first time moved into dwellings that they can call
their own. Moving day is never welcomed BY those
who are compelled to "At," and happy are they
who escape the trouble nnd vexation incident to a
change Of residence.
