We are in a quandary why our fellow-cOrres-
pondent at Leesburg, should give "Aliss Lex
ington' as he styles our village such a send OIL
% he did last week in the News, by saying that
Miss Lexington has flung OIL her old time
dihidenCe aud taken TO dances and beer three
; saloons and rollicking hop every new moon.
We do not like to throw anything back IN q
brothers teeth, but must say in defense Of our
good citizens that il he has been smitten by
3 some Of our young ladies aud thrown on the
shelf, or would not be allowed to attend the
% ball, he should have applied to the constable
or town council and things would have been
D righted for him. And aB for the dances and
v beer slngers, Leesburg and her eastern neigh
a bOrs furnish the largest part of the crowd
. and consumers. j, we did not believe IL ot
@ you, that you would gtoOp 30 low as to try Il
throw your mud on our village, for il you will
a come up and investigate, you will ind as mora
y a set OF citizens as any where.
