How some SAveet young- liberty Goals visited. Oxford anit got Taken in. Not many Sabbaths ago, at Oxford, when the "beautijul snow" lay deep and w hite on mother earth, and nothing more s.nereligious lhau the chiming of church bells broke the holy stillness of the place, and when every citizen and citizeness w e n u c d 1 1 1 e i r w ay c h u r c h w a r d wit h I13 inn books and Bibles under their arms, with their thoughts all heaven-ward, an incident was destined to occur that aroused every Chris tian to arms. Oxford is a sancti-! rnonious place, every body goes to church there, that can dress, no matter what business they puisne on week days, and Heaven pity the poor wretch that does'nt have a silk dress or broad cloth coat to sport in the sanctuary; it takes away the curse of poverty, jmd brings down the worshippers of Mammon. It stifles slander, and lends you into the first (?) circles. Yes cir, every body, that is any body, goes to church in Oxford. The church bells chime solemnly on when another sound of bells, join in the chorus, not like them, but very different, ringing merrily, yes even jingling, and O! can it be, dare any bold Sabbath breaker profane the the Sanctity of Oxford in this ungodly way? It is sleigh-bells, and a moment after a sleigh tilled with a coterie of tony gents, and labeled aT :i t .1. " 1 ' . : .. .!. 1. 4. ljtoeiiN, uastiess, 111 sigui, iiiucii to j tne ir.uignatiou ami disgust 01 every observer except ing the girls, a few of those r.re bold enough to look up. Oxford girls' hearts have always been susceptible to Liberty's h;a.'e sou's, and" even this instance must not be excepted. Who ever heard ol" an Oxford ball, completed without some of tlio::e charming Liberty gents, with tiicir facinaling eyes; faultless dancing', mid enchanting manners being present. Yes. if you want to make a nice little inndest Oxford girl wild with delight, tell her that "some of those Liberty feliows are in town."' Iiut we must go on with our fearful tale. '-Liberty or death" was the motto of t!ic hour. It was stamped on every contenance, and the very air pulsated with the cries of freedom. After sporting around the sanctimonious town for several hours, and fatally injuring the reputation of the place, they found :i new game. Something orginal. A meek virgin, with hymn book and llible. her eyes down cast, her thoughts in keepiug with the holy hour was sauntering o.ew 11 the street. 2 o'v for some fun, and Me world ly soidres-i-d the lone maiden in crew sucn language :is t'o hot only frighten he but to lu itig the resistance of a marshal, that v.-as making his beat in liiat no'guuorhoou, and who -seei through the case in about two nunutes, ordeid a hair, jumped into the sleigh and tlrove tli happy band down to his ii;nor s 0.1. ce, when they were fined not more than five dollafs, and not less than one. Liberty was vanquished. The gay spirits, the brilliant tepai'tie and fast drying of the morning gave place to a gray, sickly smile, as the boys "struck out" for home, followed by shouts of sold, void, from as indignant multitude.

Sand linn Hall was filled Friday evening, with '"fair women and brave men," to witness another spell. The prize Wici th e dollars in silver. McG ull'ey'. speller wr.s used. There were sixteen competitors for the prize, Mrs. Wallace Hand being the lucky one. Pat Ilannou, not considering him-f-elf a "bully,,' stepped aside. Mack Black couldn't tat the, "cocky" which was offered liiin. Young M orris don t luce "woolen lianas.!? Miss Fannie Morris wouldn't take "balsam." Wallace Hand couldn't 1 turn the "sheave. Master Clins. Curry, not being very "botanic," concluded to "let up." Pat Gill took ;t tumble on "succinct." Albert Miller lost his "speech." so l:r, too, gave us a rest. Miss M r.rth: IMack and Tom Rankin, forgetting how "raisin" tasted, went where the woodbine twincth.

We, then put the animal after Mrs. Wallace 1 1 and, but she diu'.v ' earc v euth a cent, but killed Mi AHigator, and took in the silver. It was tlien our good fortune to listen to an eloquent discourse on the subject of temperance, by the Rev. J. K. Logan, late ot Philadelphia. Pro.

usual time for delivering a lecture is three hours, but as he is not very j fond of aoiues. especially when thev come 111 such close proximity with Ids head, he concluded to "let up" b n . t v e n t y minutes. To those knowing Pro. L., cominendation is unnecessary; but to those hot acquainted with this emiront di vine, ( if there beany such) v e will say, in our humble judgment. ! he Stands with 110 superiors, but few 1 peers as an exponent 'of the principies which are s-o near and dear to eery true patriot and lover of libI city." j Though Pro. L.'s life seemed to be in danger, he had presence of mind ai.d courage enough to see that the Bible was taken care of. ' which is feuJh'cient evidence of his sincerity in t he cause of God a nd hu inanity which he so nobly espouses. Come again, Jonnie (Pro. Logan we should say), and we will make the boys leave their bottles and apples at home, and give you a "fair count."
