From Orangeville, i2th District.-In the
daily American of22d inst, among the local items,
is quite \ glowing and ianeiful description d
miniature oriOle pageant embracing band o.
Turks accompanied BY large and small bear.
The reporters descriptive powers evidently are
good; his Imagination Is especially fruitful. This
Is evident in his foresight In fixing his exact date
Of their arrival at the City Of BFotherly Love sud
assigning them their exact position at the head OF
the procession IN the coming jubilee celebration
In that goodly city. One or two things, however,
either from ignorance Of the facts or else because
be did not wish 10 tell the whole truth, he does
not mention. The family, for such they claim 70
be, passed out Monument street extended on the
previous Sabbath morning and camped somewhere
In the neighborhood Of the brick yards intending
TO dine. They were, however, followed by mot
ley crowd Of larger and smaller boys and some
older folk, who booted, jeered and yelled, threw
stones at the bears and table and otherwise NAL
treated them until they were compelled TO clear
the table and without their meal move on, not
especially toward Philadelphia. but simply 10 get
out Of the way Of their tormentors. No wonder
the senior Of the gang. in talking with n police
officer, paid baltimore this compliment: 1--WE
have travelled nearly ail over the world, have been
In Spain and among many other people, but We
have never anywhere been rs badly treated rs
here" Tho rabblc that followed these wanderers
were principally from the city, whence, We county
folk think, come most Of the rulIianism that dis
graces our beautiful drives. II IL frequently said,
and We just a. frequently Indignantly hur " back
a. SANDER, "Ah! that Philadelphia road, or else
that Patapsco or Back River Neck Is 4 hard hun
dted." Now u the city roughs and the city sports
would stay within their own limits there would be
horses killed In collisions and the lives Of ladies
endangered by tho reckcssncss Of drunken drivers,
nor our highways made the spectacle Of revolving
debauchcry.

on the Sabbath referred 10. True, those Turks
were untidy and flthy, and yet in any sense they
were about the equals Of those who tormented
them. II IL truo also that almost every Sabbath
the sanctity and quiet Of the day il more greatly
disturbed by thesons and daughters Of dissip atom
That that is clearly defined and so strongly marked
~ moral destroyer is brought TO Us from vi. h
out, very few Of our citizens partaking ethcrlin
sales or performance. Your correspondent be
been asked, "why do the citizens submit 20 ftlk
outrage" Having converted with many Of the
leading voters. men Of intelligence and influence,
have almost invariably been answered. "Whcrc
IL our redressl five have them arrested and taken
to Towsontown the Judges will let them 90 free,
and u u only waste Of time and money TO have
the Grand Jury indici them etc. To the Il Is =
matter of surprise that good men, honorable men,
true and noble men. both in and out Of the church.
will writhe under these wrongs, and yet allow
mere party considerations 90 pull the wool over
their eyes" 10 lead them 20 vote for these very
bad men. Mcssrs. Editors. there Is ~ great need
of reform In the county primaries there Is in the
