happiness of another, and, we believe,
a real suitor, the result was meeting
the next morning between the two,
when the lie was passed and resented
with blow. The recipient Of the
blow being a small and delicate man,
and feeling his physical inability to
cope with his adversary in a rough
and-tumble encounter, retired from the
scene, and Immediately indicted a few
lines to the effect that coffee and pis-
t1ls for TWO was the only diet tha,
would satisfy his craving appetite.
This was duly delivered, but, alas for
human hopes and expectations, the
healthy, robust opponent, who, conf
dent in his physical power, had dared
to violate the law by an assault and
battery, now claimed the protection of

clined to give honorable satisfaction.

LECT U n H.

Tuesday evening most interesting
lecture was delivered before the Osceola
Literary and Dramatic Association and
numerous audience, by Capt. II. NJ,
McVeigh. The subject, "The Great
est are the sufferers" was handled in
an able and mastery style, evincing not
only thorough familiarity with the
theme discussed, but displaying all the
beauties of oratorical mechanism in the
order of arrangement, Rhetorical Ian
guage, and appropriate illustrations,
with which the delivery was graccd.
By drawing graphic picture of the
genius, patriotic deeds, and virtues of
the great A,henian orator, Demosthe-
mes, and then contrasting with these
the ignominy, prosecutions, sufferings,
and hrally, sad death heaped upon
this, the last and best of the Greeks,
by an ungratcful, fckle populace, the
lecturer could not have hit upon more
felicitods or forcible medium by which
to Illustrate and demonstrate that
"The Greatest are really the sufferers.
The lecture was received with warm
plaudits and met with a reception of
appreciation and pleasure truly graft.
fying to the Literary and Dramatic
Association, under whose auspices il
was given ; and, alike, to the lecturer,
who did s. much credit to his subject,
and through his subject, to himself.

Wedns- day evening was pleasantly
spent by our Osceols community in
witnessing die rendition by the Lite
rary and dramatic Association Of Bou-
cicaults well known COMEDY, "Lon-
don Assurance. This play having
been in rehearsal for some time, was
given in t highly crediiable Mariner by
the amateurs. Not only were they up
in their respective parts, but their cor
rect acting showed their thorough
knowledge Of the proper conception Of
the different characters, and of their
successful efforts in carrying out these
conceptions. Aided by the tastily and
handsome manner with which the
drawing room scenes were prepared, in
tbf way Of furniture and ornaments,
/ge can truly say this piece passed of as
smoothly and cleverly as any play we
ever saw performed by amateurs, and
far better than many we have seen rem
dered by second rate stock companies.
Both ladies aud gentlemen have cause
for congra,ulation, for "London Assur-

Csst:
We echo Brother Linn OF the
Jacksonpors HeraN in saying:

Jacksonpor; HeraD in saying:
"The Star of Hope of the Goth
makes the following sensible re-
marks, which express our scnti-
ments:" 9" There have been sevc-
raj bills introduced IN our le.lsla-
ture 10 amend various arss@ses of
the constitution, of wkM character
or purr ort, We l1N not learned,
but before any<6nnge is made We
presume tbsfcople will have an
opportu1fFof knowing whether it
shall bg<or not. We think that IN
stru1lnt docs not require mach
tafvpeiing with, but that many oi
%M laws need changing or repeal is
obvious. Better let the consutu-
ton alone and make as few laws as
possible, without the people could,
be made better acquainted witt
whaL ready have.
