TABERNACLE.-
Winter has found us notwithstand-
ing that we live off from the line Of
railroads. Ice has been found in the
hollows along the road, strong enough
to bear the average school boy.
One ofour enterprising young farm
ers has just married and settled down.
We wish the happy couple long and
prosperous life.
Thanksgiving Day was celebrated
here by Especial service in the Metho-
dist church on Thursday afternoon,
Quite number we're present, though
the day was cold and windy.
The farmers teams are busy haul
ing wood to market and also in cart
ing mari, while the roads are good.
The huaking has been finished by
even the most tardy. Last winters
experience taught us to work actively
before we were showed under again.

Browns MILLS
Geld weather having set in has
caused acquisitions for one-horse
wagons or wood carts and that class Of
vehicles seem to be in demand. We
notice three of our farmers who have
as yet several acres Of cora unhusked.
Perhaps they don't want the crows to
60 hungry.
james A. Fenwick who has large
cranberry bog near here recently went
to considerable expense to prepare a
suitable place to propagate food carp.
He made a large purchase Of these
valuable fish, and much to the sur
prise of everybody and grief of Mr..
Fenwick, the fish were found one
evening last week floating on the sur
face of the pond. No cause can be
assigned for their strange death.
Last Saturday was irregular drunken
jubilee day here. "Big JIM" who
has been asober man for several years
with two exceptions dropped his whole
weight of 284 pounds from off the
store porch to the ground and suffered
afracture of two of his ribs. Whiskey
threw him. An alteration also took
place in the barroom of the hotel be-
tween Frank Goodwin &c feet 81
inches talD and George NJ. Gosliu C.
feet d. which resulted in DR.. John
W. Webb of Pointville being called on
to set the bone in one of Goslin's legs.
The drunken jubilee was kept up
until late hour of the night. Israel,
Abel and Joseph we're the leading
sports Of the occasion.
Persons having ice houses are now
making preparations to gather the
supposed coming crop.
Mr.. Hannum killed fine lot of
hogs on Monday last which he had
raised upon the refuse of the hotel
last summer.
The new proprietors of the store
seem to be doing good business and
we expect to see them do much more
as soon as they get in their new stock
of goods.
Several parties are engaged in
gathering bog grass which is taken to
the potteries at Trenton. Good wages
are made BY those who follow the bus
mess.
Game is very scarce, there having
been SO many hunters here. Mr..
Girven of Mount Holly will have to
do with less supply from this place
for week or two.
Daniel Harker, one of our Oldest
and most respectable citizens is lying
dangerously ill with pneumonia.
There are two young ladies in this
place who may be seen at almost all
hours Of the day taking "constitu-
tionap walks. The stormy weather
is against them. Their mothers may
always be found in the kitchen, where
the girls ought to be portion of the
time.

fLORENCE.-
Our town is as usual quiet and
peaceful and all things seem to be CO.
ing on smoothly.
In perusing the contents of the
communication in the Herald from its
slurring correspondent, whose writing
by the way, has created much useless
talk and not over pious feelings among
certain neighbors, we are reminded
of the drowning man catching at
straws." He knows full well that we
treat upon facts, while he treats about
mistakes, but should be wish us to
tell him about anything under that
head we can assert very positively
that we have good stock in that
line to draw from and it was given
gratuitoualy, even without asking for
it. At this time, however, we refrain
believing that word to the wise is
sufficient.
Our Baptist friends are working
faithfully among the little folks pre-
pairing them for the coming concert,
which We hope will be success. The
Methodists are not to be outdone,
however, as they are also preparing
for similar entertainment, the pro-
ceeds of which are to be devoted to
the splendid new church now rapidly
being completed. The church news
of our little town seems to be the most
plentiful at present.
The contest between the friends of
st. Clair Clark aud Cotter for the
watch is quite spirited as the friends
of each are working earnestly. The
proceeds are to be devoted to church
purposes.
We have another small company of
brethren who are bound together for
the purpose of doing good. They
meet in the little school house near
the rsilrosd station, and from what /
can learn SO far they are meeting
with considerable success.

through wheelwright shops and shoe

but as he was known by every one to
be a harmless demented being, who
should have been taken care Of, the
act Of putting him in Jail seems to
be inexcusable.
