every one enjoyed it well. The exercises of the

forth much applause. During this perform
ance, the sale of the neck-ties took place. after
which heavy charge made on the table
which was wei. filed with splendid cake pies
and lots Of delcacies in great abundance, and
it stood the charge well, for it held portion OF
its heavy load, some of which was passed
round among the spectators. After a part OF
the company had left for home, it was proposed
to Mr.. f. Eldridge, the Marshal, that the tie
holders and their ladies should form in process
sion and march round the hall, which was done
and forty-two couples marched in good order
The amount received from the sale was about
S27.OO.

CORRESPONDENT.

ED. PRESS: Items for the newspaper, seem to
be rather a scarce article this week, as there are
no deaths, marriages, elopements or births, on
which to comment; no town gossip of enough
interest to make up items for the press, but ev-
cry thing seems to pass off in the usual quiet
way, and were it not for the scarlet fever which
has been swinging round the town. we should
say the health in town was remarkably good.
Rev. o. C. Hill preached his farewell sermon
last Sabbath, and with the ladies' there were
not few wet eyes on that occasion. In taking
his leave he takes with him the best wishes, not
only of the Disciple Church, but of the whole
community, and we fear it will be long before
this town will be supplied with one who viii
give equal satisfaction to all.
The case that has gone the rounds of the Court
and known in this county as the Resurrection
Case has been resurrected by lawyer Blakeslee
of Chagrin Falls, counsel for Mrs. Inglcsby
Plaintiff, but the Defendants settled it by pay
ing the following sum: W. II. Harmon, $50; A
Lovpland, j. c. Parsons, Charles Sheldon and
Nathan Bowler. s15 each: n. f. Seward. $40
total $780, and it is hoped that it is laid in
its final resting place, there to await the great
resurrection, where the "ways that are darl
and the tricks that are vain,'' will be brough
to higher Court OF Justice, than that, ovel
which the Plaintiffs lawyer shall preside.

BURGLARY. On Thursday night
last the grocery store of Mr.. A. Has
brouck, on Main street, west of the
G. 6 P. R. r. depot, was burglarious-
ly entered by boring the lock off the
back door, and about $500 in money,
o silver watch, some $1,000 worth of
pocket knives, and quite number of
other articles, amounting in all to
about $4,000, were stolen. The young
men who perpetrated the villainY run
very great risk for the amount of
plunder obtained.

CORRESPONDENCE.
For the last few weeks our village and its vi
cinity have been unusually quiet, leading to the
supposition that there was no one living in our
precincts except these who love order, good So
ciety, and are in every respect law abiding citi-
zens; but all who had been nursing this supposi-
tion so fondly were few nights since very seri-
ously diappointed, when at esrly dawn the story
swiftly passed from lip to lip of the burglary,
theft, and wanton destruction of nearly one
thousand dollars worth of property. Curtiss Lee
few days since opened q new Billiard room in
the Buckeye Block, in which he had four tables
and also about four hundred dollars worth of
liquors on hand in casks. Last Wednesday
morning, between two and three. O'Clock, some
person yet unknown, took piece of cotton cloth
of sufficient dimensions for the purpose, and
covered one side of it with shoemakers paste
and snugly fastened it to one of the large lights
of glass in the door entering this room, after
which the glass was carefully broken and re-
moved the burglars entered the room and took
the key to the liquor closet from its usual place.
unlocked the door, entered and opened the fau-
Get to every cask, the contents of which soon
covered the floor and leaked through into the
store room of E. g. Hutchinson, saturating some
of his -four and lime. One barrel of lime when
| first discovered was very hot and ready TO burst
into q flame, in which case the destruction of a
| large part of the town would have been ineyita-
/ bic. While in the room this individual with
some sharp instrument injured the tables very
seriously by cutting the cloth and rubber cush-
| ions. more wanton and malicious destruction
of property is seldom seen. 1t was undoubtedly
! done by some personal enemy of Mr.. Lee. and
although he kept liquor on his premises for sale
it WAS no excuse for the commission of a crime
of tIrls character, and it ought not to be winked
at or upheld by any community. There is a law
| in our statute books which restricts and regu.
! lates the sale of goods of this character, and
provides ample remedies for all abuses. But
| there can not be found q principle which enter:
into the construction of well organized society
which would warrant an act of this kind. 1t i:
| the duty of every citizen of this place to ust
every excrtion TO bring to justice the perpetra.
tor of this crime which nearly resulted in tn,
destruction of our village. SOUTHERN

ACCIDENT.-Alit A little son of Mr..
Chester Holcomb, living on Chestnut
street, was very seriously injured on
Monday of last week, by being thrown
from a horse which he was riding
with nothing but halter. When the
animal was under full speed, he ran
so near to barn as TO brush the young
lad off, who struck upon his head,
cutting a severe cash, and bruising
him considerably. When picked up,
he was thought to be killed outright,
but he has so far recovered as to be
about town again.
