.MiddIeway Letter.

The Christmas holidays were enlivened by
three Christmas Trees and two Oyster Suppers.
the trees were productive of pleasure to the
children. both large and small. and the snip
pers were both profitable to the churches man
aging them.
The VI. P.'s of Three Runs held an Oyster
Supper on three nights of this week, at the res
iGencc of NJ. ID. Seckman.
CHRISTMAS was desecrated, however. by too
great indulgcance in ardent spirits on the part of
some of our citizens. who. OF course. brought
the Iiqnor from other placrs-not being able to
buy i: here-and we devoutly hope that the time
is not far distant when they will be unable to
buy il in the State.

Some craftsmen" operated on
the post-ofice safe on Tuesday night
of last week-quite successfully too,
getting $50 in silver and some
thing like $500 worth of postage
stamps. Mr.. Spelman, photogra-
pher, who sleeps in his establish
ment near the postofIice, about 2
O'Clock in the morning was aroused
by q report like that of q blast. He
went to the door, and say an indi-
vidual upon the postotlice corner,
standing as q sentinel. Then seeing
the glimmcr of light in the postolfce
he picked up his pistol and went on
q prospecting tour towards the man
on the corner. He was Immediately
halted, and the alarm was given by
the sentinel to the parties in the post
office. Three came out and rapid
pistol firing began and the four bur-
glars AN. They delivered three
shots at Mr.. Spelman, and he gave
them four. Nobody hurt. Another
man ran from the postofice-so
there we're five engaged in the rob-
berry. But for Mr.. Spelman's cour-
age in facing '"!one so desperate Il
party the robbery would have been
far more successful than it was
Nothing, we believe, was disturbed
except the safe. The bolt vas
blown out by an explosive. A
monkey wrench and other tools
stolen from Mr.. John Bishops were
found under the platform at the post
office corner. The entrance into the
postofficc was made at the front
door. the double locks there having
been forced. Mr.. Spelman thinks
he recognized two of the gang as
men who recently we're in town ped
ding needles and soap, and who
boarded at Mrs. Spots several days
and left without paying their hill.
