dance, at Lawrence's Hall on Friday

-Davy Hilands, while hunting in
Old Forest, shot deer which is a
great curiosity, its color being a sort
of a piebald. About one third Of the

"A suit was had at the Arbitration
Room of the Court House, yesterday !;

The Jefersonian furnishes the fol-
lowing truthful and characteristic re-
mark: "Brookville has furnished
more 'drummers' for city houses than
any town in the State, and the, calm,
unirnpassioned contemplation of the
cheek of any of them would cause
rod peddler to 60 out in the
brush and die with envy and despair"
-Messrs S. III. Haslet, ]. d. Hu-
lings and w. A. Hilands returned
home from the woods on Monday eve
ming, having killed while absent ten
deer. Of course We suppose all of
said deer were killed before the sea-
son expired. They have been giving
their attention to bears, for some time
past, and would undoubtedly have
brought two or three Of the "var-
mints" in, had they not lost some Of
their best bear dogs while there.
Willie, oldest son of Geo. Kiln
silver. of Beaver alley, was kicked
in the face, by horse, short time
since. He had been hauling some hay,
and after putting the horses in the
stable, was pulling some ice out of the
tail of one of them, when the horse
kicked, striking him directly under
the nose. and cutting cash about two
and one-half inches long. DIR. Coburn
was called, and his opinion is that
none Of the bones are injured serious
ly, and that the boy would soon re-
cover.

gives this valuable hit of advice to
the public: persons who patronize
papers should pay promptly, for the
pecuniary prospects of the press have
q peculiar power in pushing forward
public prosperity If the printer is
paid promptly, and his pocket-book
kept plethoric by prompt patrons, he
puts his pen TO his paper in peace, his
paragraphs are more pointed, paints
pictures of passing events in more
pleasing colors, and the perusal of his
paper is q pleasure tq the people.
Paste this piece Of prOyerbial philOso-
phy in some place where all persons
