GLENDALE.

We wish You and the dear old CHRON-
IcLE happy and prosperous New Year.
We are happy to say that there are none
destitute. or many sick in this vicinity, aud
that any industrious man need t be
without work or money. Christmas was
quietly observed. Santa Claus made the
children happy, and not one stocking
but what was well filled Turkey, mince
pie, plum pudding and condiments was
the usual bill-offare, after an appropriate
Xmas sermon from Rev. McLain.
On Thursday of last week there was to
have been a glass ball shooting match,
but the balls did not arrive in time, so the
town was secured over for bottles. A
bushel or more of baking powder bottles
were secured and the fun began. 1t was
astonishing what scientific shooting was
done, and six desire me to say they
challenge any similar number in Sussex
county at the same objects.
