VintOn Items.

Vinton has had her "Merry Christ
mas" GAIL went as merry as mar
riage bell'' with few exceptions.
All boast of festive dinner, and
those of light hearts tripped "the
light fantastic" when the evening
hours were merry with music.
One or two young fellows thought
they were celebrating the 4th of July
and so pulled off their coats and laid
down in shady places by the wayside
till the short hours of morning.
They often ''tuned their harps" and
tried to practice few tricks in Ieger-
demain, and occasionally to reach a
high note in ventriloquism.
The day and night were the most
beautiful we have been favored with
for many days. Roads were good
and carriages were good; hearts
were light and eyes were bright.
The next eve, (26th, the Free
masOns made pleasant with their fes-
tive and eoer longed for celebration
in honor of st. John. Mr.. d. B.
HEBARD happily entertained the au-
dience for half an hour with an ex-
cellent speech. The gentleman needs
no commendation, for all know his
ability.
AS everything in Vinton must close
joyously, again light hearts ''chased
the glowing hours with flying feet"
At o'clock Sabbath afternoon,
(27th, Mr.. j. r. ADNEY, one of our
young men of promising future, ad-
dressed full house. The League
was greatly fattered at meeting with
such encouragement as he so firmly
uttered. Some of his poetical allie
gories and vived parallels cannot be
surpassed. His many references be-
speak mind we'll read and well cul-
tured.
We predict for him a brilliant fu-
ture. No one would surmise that he
was the same merry-hearted plow-
boy that used to love to 'turn the
green sward DER the hills"

Further Action on the Narrow
Gauge Project.

The correspondent of the Cincin
natl Gazette says:
The action of the House Commit
tee of Railways and Canals, upon Mr.
Hubbard's bill containing subsidy
for the Washington, Cincinnati IL St
Louis Railway, was as follows: In
general discussion upon the merits oi
the bill, majority of the committee
expressed themselves as positively
opposed to the granting of any sub.
sidy by the present Congress. There
was great desire, however, on the
part of the minority to allow the bill
to be referred to the House for its ac-
tion, and the majority, feeling that if
any subsidy is to be granted, the one
asked for in this bill was, probably,
the most deserving of any. decided
to allow the bill to go before the
II ouse.
There was no division when the
vote was taken, and several mem
bers of the committee declined to
vote. The record, however, show s
that the committee agreed to the re-
porting of the bill and the rec
ommendation that it pass.

ChamberSburg Items.

The health of the neighborhood is
good.
No meetings took place on Christ
mas, but roast chickens, turkeys, &c,
were served in abundance.
The citizens were favored with a
serenade by some musicians. on
Christmas Eve, and on Christmas
night the Temperance League, upon
leaving the church, were greeted
with noisy demonstrations of cheer
by the village lads. The music was
any thing but sweet, however the
boys probably did the best they
could, under the circumstances. A
strong temperance sentiment still
prevails, and hopes are entertained of
a successful campaign during rs.

A FIGHT between Dan. G. Byerly,
manager of the Bulletin, and eX-
Governor Warmoth, occurred in
New Orleans on the 26th. Byerly
knocked Warmoth down with stick,
and jumped on him. Warmoth,
drawing his knife, stabbed Byerly
several times in the abdomen. The
wounds were fatal.
The difficulty grew out of political
differences, though both are known as
what are called Conservatives.

Der, and the Republicans defeated
him. Voorhees,, of Indiana, was an

RECENTLY the United States Dis
trict Court for the Western District
of Missouri, has decided that a life
insurance policy is made void if an
incorrect answer is given to any OF
the multitudinous and mu,tifarious
questions embodied in the usual life
insurance application. Under this
ruling it is safe to say that not ten
per cent. of the life policies issued
are of any value if the companies
choose to contest them.

have organized Commonwealth Club" The
preamble to the Constitution reeites that the
members are dissatisfied with the corruption
which now prevails in politics, and are con-
viuced that this dissatisfaction is not coD6ned
to any political party or section of society, but
is shared by all honest men alike; they agree to
form an association in the hope that thereby a
better outstanding will be promoted among men
who hold these opinions, and that an interest
in all public measures will be excited among
those who now stand aloof through apathy and
disgust. In SO doing they give no pledge, nor
do they abandon the organizations to which
they belong. The officers of the club are E.

less Intentional guilt, and Distrlct-attorney
Lewis ntimated his purpose of favorably en-

patch says Mr. Brooks received the verdict OF
the jury with perfect composure. He was not
required to stand up to hear it, as is the custom
iu the State courts. Probably he would have
been unable to have done So for it seems he IS
very feeble, and lite hangs by but a slender
thread, He is tifty-6ve years of age. Since
the collapse OF his bank and his arrest the
marks OF age have come upon him as strongly
as if he had passed ten years of ordinary exls-
tence.
