did was before he had had the pleasure
of Mr. Sutro's acquaintance. He intro

to say that Sutro was innocent of any

A MERRY CHRISTMAS EvE.-We can scarce
ly conceive Of how an hour or two could have
been spent in a more entertaining and pleas
ant manner than it was by all who
were present at the first annual gift entertain
ment, given for the Sunday School scholars of
the M. +. Church of New Hope, on Christ
mas Eve. The first important and attractive
feature. on entering the room, was large
Christmas Tree, handsomely decorated and
well loaded with presents for the scholars
Another important feature was the joyful
faces of the scholars and officials and the gen.
eral expression of geniality and satisfaction
which shone from the .ountenances of the
many-who filed the room to oyerflowing.-
An appropriate address was delivered by the
pastor of the Church, Rev. J. p. Miller and
was well received by all The singing, on the
occasion, was executed in manner which
showed high state Of efficiency, and added
greatly to the pleasure of the occasion. A
visitation by Santa Claus, "a character assum-
ed by one of the ofiicials) with his long flow
ing locks, who came to assist in the distribu-
ton of the presents, was the source of a great
deal of merriment to all. The presents be-
slowed showed that each scholar had been re-
membered with equality, and that consider
able Judgment had been exercised in the selec-
ton. After the distribution of the presents,
the audience was again treated with some
fine Christmas carols and number of choice
aud appropriate pieces selected for the occas-
ion. At about quarter to 10 O'Clock the exer-
cises were concluded and all retired with a
look of satisfaction, and were probably con-
tempiating merry Christmas on the morrow.
The unusual interest taken in the enterprise
and the successful carrying out Of the same
is largely due to the efforts of the Supt. of
the school, Mr. j. p. Stockton, Rev. Jas. p.
Miller, pastor, Mr.. L. Mellin, leader of the
Choir, and number Of the official teachers,
and should be conclusive evidence of the high
esteem witll{which the scholars are regarded
by them. The scholars will, no doubt, be
prompted to faithful attendance to their $.
S. duties during the coming new year.

time shooting at chicken thieves. Mr.. Corson
having had three chickens stolen few days

same shortly again. 0nthe night above men-

yard. Coming out softly, he espied Tor
thought he did person climbing over the
fence, and bang went the gun. Phil. aimed
well, as by observation the top Of the fence
was found we'll marked with shot, but tho last
shot was too high, coming nearly four feet
above the fence, striking Mr.. Butterfoss

ties were heard to run after the shooting. So
thieves beware! Phil. means BUSINESS.

CHRISTMAS TREE.--'The Christmas Tree
prepared for the Sunday School scholars at
tending the school attached to the Presbyter-
ian Chapel, in New Hope, and exhibited on
Christmas Eve, was the scene of a very pleas
ant season. The room as well as the tree was
arranged in a charming manner, and a full
representation of the school was out on the
occasion. The scholars received their presents
and appeared to be well pleased. The num-
Der Of scholars and the many facilities afford
ed shows the school to be in a h althy and
thriving condition.

asa peaceably disposed resident of our town,
was assaulted aud quite severely injured by a
colored man employed BY Coon & Bodine, on
Monday evening. We are informed that he
was standing in front of one of tile saloons,
when the man called to him, and, on his APP
proacll, knocked Rundown. He was rendered
senseless by the blow and when he recovered
it was found that his jaw was dislocatcd. The
assault seems to have been entirely unpro-
voked. The man was arrested and admitted

sB- A bear-skin robe was stolen from Mr..
Bankson Claxtons sleigh, while in New Hope
about two or three weeks ago. Mr. C. is a
resident of Buckingham, and valued the robe
at $50. It had been presented to him by n
friend or relative residing in California. On
discovering his loss, he offered reward of
$40 for the return of the robe. Fortwo weeks
he was unable to gain any tidings Of the lost
property. One day last week, however, the
robe was found by its owner slowed away in
the sheds at the Buckingham Friends Meet
ing House. AS no one was there to claim the
reward or give an explanation, it was TAX
en- home. 1t was placed within reach Of the
owner in all probability, through fear of de-
lection. They found, no doubt, that keeping a
robe of that character concealed would be
quite an elephant :" on their hands.
