NEW YEARS day passed of without aDy

NEW YEARS day passed off without any
thing transpiriDg worthy Of special note, in
this locality. In town, the usual amount
Of The "critter ardent" was consumed, and
8 dog fight, interspersed with some scientific
sparriug by artists pugilistic, was INDUCED
10 for the edi6cation of the curious, and for
the benefit Of somebody's pocket A gift
entertainment given by DR.. Day was PERI
hapS the crowniug feature of the occasion.
For the trifing sum of fifty cents invested ,
some things were drawn, as well as others.
Among the other .hings, we may mention
that Postmaster General johnson drew a
ball of soap, which he exultingly exhibits as
a trophy of his rare and excellent luck Am
other gentleman boosted of being the happy
nossessor Of box of genuine pills, which
he drew without an effort. Katy Hartman
drew prize of $50 in coin, SO we are in
formed.
In the country, everything was lovely, SO
far as the writer's observations extended
he having the good fortune to get out a
short distance. If the country dinners were
as grand generally as the one enjoyed at
no matter where, then are city dinners
nowhere in comparison.

We notice that the parties injured by the
late freshet of two or three weeks since, are
