happiness at home, and good, true friends
to converse with around that old fashion.
ed fire" of yours.
More Christmas. Christmas also reached
the hill country long before day on Monday
morning. We were aroused from our
peaceful slumber, not by the song of the
angels, but by the agency of gunpowder,
as report answered report, we quickly
bethought ourselves that the great day had
come. Commemorative day! not rightly
understood by some, nor appreciated as it
should be by many.
Sm'les.-Our stores were open the entire
day. Our worthy Host was as usual, bland
ly smiling, and number of our young
folks took to smiling also, so they smiled
lonely and oftenly, and by the ninth houl
of the day the strength of many waved
weak, especially in the knees and the lower
extremities; but they deserve some credit,
for no angry words were exchanged, but
little swearing was heard, and there was not
one fight. At North East, am told the
same manner of "smiling'' produced nc
less than half a dozen quarrels. Now,
Mr. Editor, wasn't right: 1 always told
you this was very moral place.
Poultry.-Last week our neighbor, Har-
vey Reeder, shipped to Philadelphia about
1880 pounds Of poultry, all raised this
year by himself. Right good for Harvey,
amt it?
Sale of Real Estate.-William Davidson
recently purchased of Messrs. Warburton
u Janney, about 40 acres of the "Cleaden''
property with improvements. Price So, $50.
John White has also bought of William
Davidson, small property near this place,
for $3.50.
Kicked By a Horse.-On last Sabbath,
Nicholas Milburp was badly kicked in the
side and stomach by horse. He remain
ed senseless and almost breathless for
some time, but is recovering.
Fre.-William johnson came near hav-
ing little Chicago experience Of his own,
on Wednesday morning last. The chin
ney of his dwelling caught fire. In the
second story was stove-pipe hole, covered
with muslin, this was soon consumed, then
the licking flame had free entrance, devour-
ing, in few moments, one of Mrs. John
sons dresses, leaving nothing but the iron
work, and was rapidly appropriating other
material, when Mr.. johnson and some
other men, with much difficulty ended its
progress. As the mill and dwelling are
connected this might have been disas-
trous affair. Moral.-Cover stove pipe
holes with metal.

How TO OBSERVE THE HoIIDAYs.-The
Holidays should be impressed upon our
minds by some pleasant remembrances.
Some good action done, OF some act of kind
ness received from another. The good
time should be spent SO that we can look
back upon it without reproach. We
should have some landmark set down by
which we can remember how the time was
passed. One good way to have 4 continual
reminder would be to purchase Il Suit of
tIe Splendid Clothing now being sl,ld al

at the distance OF two miles.
Soloman Sharp, :: popular preacher, bu:
rather eccentric. who said he was glad to
leave them, as they had never made feast
for him during his stay, but had fed him on
the giblets.
John Nichols, young man of fine tai
ents and address, and of great promise, but
who subsequently suffered from mental
alteration.
Many Others might be mentioned, and if
all the incidents connected with the history
Of the old church could lie written, they
would form volume of some interest in
the neighborhood.
Since the building of the old church :.
new generation has arisen, and most of its
early members have been removed before
it their remains lie within the surround
ing enclosures, and the inscriptions on their
tombs form part of its history. NC.

Death from Small Pox.-The case Of
small pox which occurred in Elkton-thai
of w. 7. Brown-and reported in our last
issue as being a very mild type, proved
fatal on Tuesday night last. The fact is
not concealed now by the physicians that it
was considered at the time of the announce.

occur, unless imported from the city.

any of the neighbors in time to save any
of the contents-tools, leather, Mr.. TBS

our Elkton young men sport red feather

enough from one city. Let US not import
their diabolism.

Observation-Disclosures passed off in Elk
ton in rather an idle, sleepy way. Eating
turkey was prominent feature of the
occasion. We had no remarkable demon
strations on the part of King Alcohol
His majesty soaked his votaries in a quiet
way, and did not turn many of them into
the streets, as bowling maniacs; for which
consideration, on the part of the despot, he
is devoutly to be thanked.
