TEMPERANCE.
We have had two temperance lectures
here this week; one by Rev. Mr.. Noyce, in
Odd Fellows Hall, on Tuesday night, which
made good impression. The other was
by IA young man who had to be conveyed to
our lock mp in a cart. on Monday night,
by our bailiff, assisted by one of our city
fathers. 1t has got to be too common for
some of our people to get drunk and use
indecent and profane language on our
streets. and if there Is any punishment for
such offences the law should be rigidly
enforced.

BAD FOX HUNT.
Our town, which has heretofore had
good reputation, and was thought to be
peopled with good citizens, seemed to get
in the hands of old Harry, on last Satur-
day The ID wasn't in the fox, but in
some of the citizens. who looked on at the
fox chase. Old cloven foot didn't stop at
that, but set his trap and caught some
of our good folks. If there is any law
for the punishment of cruelty to ami
mails it should have been enforced in this
case The poor fox when let out had one
of its legs broken, and was pursued by
vicious pack of hounds and an unmerciful
set of christians, but made out to take
care of itself by swimming the creek when
it could not run any further. Good for old
reynard and bad luck to his pulsuers.
