A CHARIvABI - The inhabitants of
Phoebe, from one end OF the town to the
other, were awakened about two o'clock
on Sunday morning by terrible racket
and horrible noise emanating from a
party of men who had attempted to
charavari couple on Main street. The
serenading party had kept up their noise
for some time without producing the ef-
feet they desired, when one OF them
placed his eye to the keyhole, but im-
mediately started back with the cry .he
is coming with a gum" The crowd
commenced to disappear pretty lively
when the gentleman with the gun APP
peared. One of them however, being
near the gentleman with the gun, at
tempted to bring that instrument down
on the head of the offender, when the Of
fender grappled with him and caught the
gun. In the struggle the gun went off,
and this brought the balance of the purity
back thinking some one was shot. They
soon however, saw the position of affairs
and finding that their companion
was getting worsted started in on the
original possessor of the gun and COM
menced to belabor him TO the best of
their ability. The gentleman with the
gun finding it was getting rather warm
commenced to yell Justify, bringing
two of the officers to the scene, who
took charge OF the gun and dispersed the
rabble. Thus ended the charivari.

blow. The affair occurred on Lacour

deed.
