HARD ON THE MULE.-On last "Wednesday
Young man riding upon mule had just time
enough to reach his fathers place, about three
miles from Winnsboro', whittier he had been
on business, when it began to rain heavily.
Stripping the saddle aud bride from the
mule, he jumped into the piazza of the house
out of the rain, and let the animal 60. The
latter walked off few yards, and was about
to enter the door of the stable, when flash OF
lightning came and it fell dead IN It's tracks.
The young man was metaphorlcally thunder
struck, but the mule !, IS literally 80, and has
gone the way Of all flesh.

WH1TsUNDAY OR PENTEcosT. Yesterday was
observed in the Roman Catholic, Protestant
Episcopal and Lutheran churches as Whitsun-
day, commemorative of the descent of the
Holy Ghost on the day of Pentecost. Whit
sunday occurs ten days after the Ascension,
and derives It's name from the fact that on this
day, In the ancient church, the catechumens,
who were then baptized, as well as those who
had been baptized at Easter, appeared ln
white garments. Pentecost was one of the
three great festivals Of the Jews, on which
every male was obliged to appear before the
Lord at the tabernacle and afterwards In the
temple. The modern Jews celebrate 1t dur
ing two days, which they keep like those of
the Passover.

CURTA1LING FUN.-0n Saturday afternoon
an immense excitement was created on Meet
ing street, near the Mills House, BY the sudden
appearance of an unfortunate cur racing down
the street with aR empty lobster can tied to
his narrative. The frightened animal, in Its
efforts to leave the trundllng torture behind,
dashed into Inglls's fashionable hair-dressing
saloon, causing the occupants to vacate the
premises in all the blooming glories Of lsLher
and champoo, &c. It was soon found, how
ever, that the dog was not mad, and having
been freed of the appendage the animal went
its way, leaving the occupants OF the saloon to
laugh over their sudden discontinue.

The ENTERTAINMENTS. The per-
formances ut PoIlock's Hail on Thurs
day evening were largely attended,
and for young home talent ably rem
dered. The play tf"Dora' was the
chief attraction of the evening, and
came off charmingly, though unaided
by any music whatever. That
String Band" advertised to Sustain
its ancient reputation" from reason
able excuse, no doubt, didn't "sus-
tain" mach. Still the actors and act
resses in Dora" filed the play with
life and interest, and made it really
seem like living in old England The
character Of Farmer Allan" though
difficult one to imperso nate, was
sustained admirably well throughout
by + H. Durand. He put on the &C.
centricities of an old Englishman
very ably for one so young, and was
decidedly q success. Miss Nellie
Barber az Dora Allan" bore her
painful sacriices nobly and impaired
many charms TO that character.
VIM f McGonigal appeared in the
play as Luke Bloomfield and sus.
tanned that character with the ease
and grace OF more experienced act
or. civilian Allan" was represent.
ed by Mr.. John IL Howe, who brave
ly bore the unhappness OF discard
ed son, until death relieved him OF
his suffering, He filled the character
with marked ability. Miss Emma
Shrader happily sustained the char
acter Of Mary Morrison" and like
all the rest, acqu tied herself with
much credit.
The entertainment concluded with
the laughable farce entitled, "The
Man Without q Head" and left the
audience in a very humorous mood
for Dispensing.
On Saturday evening following the
play of "Dora" was repeated, and
was rendered in a manner by no
means inferior to that of Thursday
evening. The Platte7ille String Band
enliveRed this evenings performance
es with the best Of music, and made
the evening throughout agreeable
aad pleasant. A new side-splitting
farce was introduced this evening en-
titled, "rhe New Footman, and was
inst what wss needed to make the
whole entertainment happy sue
