DisqracefuI Actions of Tucker
County TOu9hs.
A Congregation Cursed, and the Minister
Challenged to Come Out and
Fight 80 Gambling in a
Pulpit.

The Flanagan Hill correspondent Of the
Tucker county Pioneer relates some rather
disgraceful things. On q recent Sunday
morning, while the minister was occupy.
ing the pulpit Of the little church, q num-
Der of young men, mounted on horseback,
galloped round and round the building,
aourishing revolvers, cursing the inmates,
and challenging the preacher to come out
and fight. Several attempts were made to
drive the hoodlums away, but they as often
returned. When this Amusement had be-
come m~onotonous, they started of up Dry
Fork. They met three young boys and
threatened to shoot one Of them who sprang
behind one of the other boys for safety.
The revolver was swung round so
close that it touched the boys hat.
When the congregation returned 10 the
evening they found the pulpit occupied BY
q party of gamblers, whom it was neees'
sary to drive away before services could be
held.

February 1, 1856, was the coolest ever
experienced at Weston, aud doubtless in
any portion of the State. The thermome-
ter never got below &c degrees heretofore;
and it was then thought that the bottom
had surely been reached. But Tuesday
night, the mercury went down to 81 degrees
below zero. Following is the record kept
at the Insane Asylum: At 10 p m. it
was at zero; at IL p m. 2 degrees below,
II midnight 8 below, l a. m. l6 below,
2 a. m. Is below, 8 q. m ~ below, 4 q. m.

At 10 o'clock it was impossible by aid
of the thermometer to tell the tempere-
ture, the mercury having frozen; although
it was known 10 have fallen several de-
grees lower. A singular feature Of the
night was a succession Of explosions, al.
most as loud as a musket shot, heard in
all directions, caused by the action OF the
frost upon the trees, fences and houses.
