Some diversion from the usual
routine was furnished. yesterday after
noon to those in the vicinity of Mar
ket square at 2 o'clock. One Of the
local auctioneers led from some Sc
cluded spot a sympathetic looking
horse, which he announced he would
sell to the highest bidder. A crowd
gathered quickly and listened with in
terest to the learned dissertations of the
auctioneer. who gave the animal under
consideration a fine reputation. and
Ike David Harum. warranted that che

bidding upon the equine paragon was
not what might be called Spirited and
the horse was finally knocked (igura-
lively speaking) for IS.
