There Is nothing important going on

dry goods and groceries. which attract the
attention OF both ladies and gentlemen
who happsn to come about, and 1t so hap
pens that Il good many are around es-
pecially on Saturday.
People will get careless sometimes and
have their horses hitched near the rail-
road. A horse ran away with Il buggy
the other day, and stove himself up against
Il fence. hurting himself Il great deal
worse than he did the fence, and DANA
ging the buggy to q considerable extent.
There was Il wedding in Decherd last
Friday evening. Mr.. Dayy Tucker, n
clever young gentleman, and who had just
recovered from an attack of Miningitis,"
was taken with something like matrimony
on the brain. Now, Davy had to kinder
steal his fair one, as there was some OBJ
lection by the 'step-parent !" but assisted
by kind young friends. who are ever ready
on such occasions, made an admirable sue
cess Of the undertaking, and led his fair
bride Miss Molly Goldcn,) to "hymens al

yours,

One of the most ineXplicable things in
the world-one that the mind of man can
not deduce from logical reasoning or from
common sense meditation-is that our
streets should be ditched on each side in
order, it would seem, for the sudden ap-
pearance ofhuge gullies. Property own
ers are compelled to be constantly filling
them up to save their palings. But our
present Board will not be so wanting in
foresight. We believe they mean bust
ness, and will have good work done, and
in the end will sec that the best is the
cheapest, just as all who insure with w.
j. Slater will find out the same thing.

SAC AccIprNr.--On the afternoon O

SAD ACCIDENT.--On the afternoon OF
last Sunday Hester Liberty,a daughter OF
Mrs. Josephine Johnston, of our town,
lost her life in a most distressing manner
She had returned from church, and seemed
to have a chill upon her. A fire was
made In the CRATE, and the little girl sat
down to warm. Anon her clothing caught
fire, and in her fright she tore away from
her mother who sprang from a sick bed
10 her relief and rushed into the street,
where the breeze only added flercehess to
the flames that ~enveloped her. A young
man, riding by, jumped from his horse and
went to her rescue, but too late. The
fiery element had done its work, and the
sun had hardly gone TO his bed in the oc-'
cident before poor little Hester Liberty
johnson wss a corpse, surrounded by
school-mates and friends, and every heart
there present was sad indeed, for the de-
ceased was as fair and promising Il child of
eleven summer as we ever saw, and her
mother one of the noblest women of our
town. Sorrow was unstinted in every
face, and if the sympathy Of our people
could resurrect the lost one, she would
be again alive and well to gladden. the
hearts of her dear mother, her fond sitter
and devoted brother, now bowed in UNI
availing grief. But the One who said
"Sufer little children to CONF unto me-"
and to whom she went in simple faith
while living, is alone able as lie is willing.
to resurrect her. And though the path
be dark which all Of US must travel. yet
we are told that, soor or late, twill touch
the shining hill of day-'twill lead at last
TO light.
She was buried, on Monday afternoon,
in the Winchester cemetery, where APP
propriate ceremonies were led by Rev.
Parks. Rector of Trinity Parish.

acknowledgements CThursdayN will
inaugurate the lovely month of May, but
there will be lacking much of the pageant
ry which has generally attended such in
augurations. We have had a backward
Spring. Rude angles of many a bough
may yet be seen through scanty verdurc,
and were it not for the assertion of the
unerring almanac one could scarcely be-
lieve the first day of the "rosy-footed"
month so close at hand. And we have
heard OF no preparations for celebrating the
advent of May. Time was when the good
people Of Winchester and surrounding
country all joined in sweet accord
the old and the young, maidens fair
and gallants bold-to welcome the
month of balmy zephyrs and fragrant
flowers. Perhaps we have become
more practical, but have We not also
become less sociable? and proper
tionately we must surely be less happy.
All. if we would only care less for dollars
and dimes. except to enable us to be more
generous; il we would think less of get
ting rich by driving hard bargains, and
cease to envy our %neiehbors who possess
more worldly goods than we; if charity
and love filled our hearts instead of selfish-
ness and hate; if the universal good of
mankind were the object Of our stru ggles
instead of sectarianism and personal sue
cess; and if we could only learn to limit
our wishes to our means, what a blessed,
bappv state of society we should have!
Really it does seem that times were bet
ter in the days Of our b%oyhood, but
we don't intend to morallze or croak
Ccrtes, 'twould do 10 good. We have
heard people talk this way ever since our
birth. When we get older W. begin to
pirate about the "good old days" now gone
forever, but an ingenious writer says the
first man who was born into the world
killed the second, and asks: When did the
good old times begin?
But, tomorrow will be the First of May
and it may be that a few young folk
will go a-Maying, and we opine their
hearts will be made happier. We
shall not envy them their happiness.
Rather, had we the power of Joshua
of old, the sunbeams should play
among the boughs, and the birds prolong
their songs, full forty hours or more than
nature will permit, and all for the cake of
the lads and lasscs. "And when night
come, amidst the breathless heavens"
we'd have them all a-guessing what
stars should be their homes when love be-
immortal"
