Friend 1ducrtiser:-1 happened to
witness ID little scene on the streets Of
your town, on Saturday, that's perhaps
worthy of note. The. facts are about
thusly: a quantity more or less of
beer had changed casks in the tipp!er
mandatory of Field & Go. The .effer-
vescencc oceasioDed by the change,
kicked up quite q row, so agitatiyg the
new cask. that 4 Collision took place be-

his other half, whether the better hslf
or not is an open question who ponnc-

brought on q general engagement. And
now appeared the ubiquitous John Sher-

.escorting him toward the seat OF justice,
WHEN on the solemn pledge that he
would leave town he-w1s suffered to
depart, venting lefthanded blessings on
such q town as Upton, declaring that
he would hereafter patronize Mechan-
i~csville, where he could get pheasant
and haze q social knock-dOwn without
impairment interference Oh the part OF
prying officials.

Messrs. Andrews & Weeks of the Jour-

ton is true: | am decidedly opposed
to tbetnstn of y ptoif or any other town
interfering in any legitimate business
