Last Sunday was u delightful day
All animate and inanimate nature seem
ed to smile with gladness Every maj
you met would greet you with a smie,ant
uniformly exclaim: show good it Seem
to see the sun shine" Wcll,it was good
after so many dull, dark, gloomy Autumn

Phillips could not refrain from letting
out some Of his NORWOOD against Mr.
Greeley, in lecture in this village, bu
he must have been disappointed that h
was not arplauded for his thrust at de
featcd candidate. Wendell is truly al
lshmaeite
Sheldon says his large, splendid oys
ters," at so cts. quart, are "Jetter anC
cheaper than the 40 ct. oysters" Prob
ably he knows, as he has usually fount
what he wanted of the 40 ct. ones at Ben
son & Andrews, when ne had none of tn,
"large splendid ones" They sold owe
1000 gallons Of these 40 ct. oysters las
winter. Pretty good for "high" we think

hawk on the wing, with single ball, a

gerous to staud in front Of a rifle, whe
Capt. Abbey draws IL bead on the barrel
The torchlight display the other ey
ening was very enthusiastic affair
Sherman's Band was here and discourse
splendid music, but the torchlight pre-
cession was ridiculous farce The pre-
cession was composed mainly of boys tror
10 to IA years old, mostly natives c
Canada and Limerick, screechng at tn
top of their voices for Greeley and swing
ing and sloshing their exploding kerosen
lamps about, bespattering the people in
fearful manner.
Days DoINGs.--A Lesson TO BOYS =
MiddleJury, Nor. Quite 'aughabl
scene occurred in town to-day. It seem
that two Of our Irish population, bein
under the influence Of liquor, felt dispo.
ed to whip peaceful young man frol
the country, but they "crossed the lion
- path this time, for the ARRAY close
much soouer than begun by fhe,"countr
lad, "as they called him, loosening quit
number of teeth in one of tho bully
mouths causing the blood to flow so tn,
respiration was almost stepped for a sho
time. The other received hearty aalut
in the abdomen with the toe of boo
which fairly doubled him and made MI
