Miss Cora seabright, of Winchester, is
visiting her uncle, Mr.. Joseph II. Fry, aud
other relatives, in this place.
Our citizens have taken advantage OF
the cold weather, and are busily engaged
in filling their ice-houses.
Mr. Jerry Donovan, young man Of this
place, had his feet very badly frozen on
Monday night. II is feared that they will
have to be amputated.
In our personals of last week we omitted
to mention that Mr.. w. F. Wissler, who

Doctor took a hand in it, and Mr. Thomas
broke for the house with the Doctor after
him. armed with broom and blood IN his
eve. The cat took refuge under the bed,
and the Doctor takes great delight IN tell
ing the rest.
It is amusing to see how quickly Mr. Alb.
-Coffman can clear crowd of young fell
lows out of a store or public place. The
very sight Of HIM is sufficient to make
them shah - OF. 1t is not on account
of any contagious disease that he carries
with him, but because Of lot Of tax tick
cts he has in his pocket, and the disagree
able way he has Of presentingthem to you.
An Edinburg woman, who is an inces-
SAINT talker, at last accounts, had only
spent one day at home this year. She is

Saturday night last, and remain at home

Edinburg has a COW that can kick hard
er than a mule, Judging from the impress

view, but were fully convinced, from the
distance she was knocked, that the old
COW had not failed to put her "imprint
there.
