Slowed up" and do their work
imperfectly. This failure to

the system and brings distress

The boys Of NIeDonough gave treat
to their many warm friends in the
County last Tuesday evening at the town
hall, La Plata The minstrel show has
now taken its place amongst their
numerous successes Of the past, and
those who attended will find it pleas
ant recollection Tor some months to
come. 1t would seem useless to endeav-
or to say just which impersonation
pleased us most,-for they were good
without exception, but we remember
applauding long and Justify for Master
Jack FERGUSON, and were somewhat
disappointed when the sudden lowering
Of the curtain prevented much desired
encore. We extend our hearty congrat-
ulations to the McDonough boys, and
trust they will find it possible from
time to time to entertain us further.
The dance which followed seemed to
be thoroughly enjoyed by all, despite
the fact that many participants were
somewhat fatigued by similar exertions
of the previous evening. Though the
McDonough boys shone brightly in their
minstrel, we are inclined to think them
somewhat eclipsed in the dance by the
young ladies Of MeDonough. But then,
where is there a man in our old County,
be he on the sunny OF shady side of life,
who does not, in all matters social,
IN, ledge the grace, loveliness and
- lsdaney of our young womanhood.
