WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 8 New Yerk volunteer infantry, serving a year and nine months, at the end of which time he ' was discharged for disabilities contracted in the service. After following his trade in Brooklyn, X. Y., and Middle town, Del., for a few years he came te Lancaster some thirteen years age and re sided here until the'time of his death. He was an active Democrat, an upright, hon est, industrious man, and a member of Zion Lutheran church. lie leaves a wife and several children te mourn his death. His funeral will take place en Friday af ternoon. BART ITEMS, Frem our Regular Correspondent. In and around Georgetown the perk season is at hand and the cars of the early risers arc saluted with the seething squeak of some neighbor's porker as he pretests against the keen edge of the head butch er's knife. . The meat industrious men 01 our neigh borhood arc the blacksmiths. The smooth horses must be made rough te be able te stand en the smooth reads. Twe shops in the village with three Mnitlis, and three shops iu the township outside of the vil lage are unable te meet the demand shoeing. Thcininncrsaicbtill in search of the fat rabbit, and the report of lire arras is heard in all quarters. The most expert of the Bart sportsmen is a young man in this village, James Russell, jr. A few days ecu hejwas informed that a rabbit was as sitting under his father's hedge. Arming himself with the most convenient weapon, a revolver James started out te de an extraordinary sheeting. Stealing along as silently asa Sioux Indian,he at last caught sight of the long ears of cotton-tail, James felt his bleed begin te course mere rapidly, his eyes sparkled,and ever his countenance spread an unmistakable grin of satisfac tion. He knelt down in the read some eight feet from his game, steadied his trembling hand en his knee, cast his sparkling eye along the bright barrel of his levelver, pulled the trigger, and away sped the lea den messenger into the body of net the rabbit but an apple tree some twenty feet further en. home unforeseen eccuricucc had misplaced his .lim and he had missed. As seen as James could open his eyes he looked at the spot where his game was seen, and te his great joy discovered the long cars still unmovable. Again he braced his ncivcs and fired into the ground some four feet from him and when a second time the smoke cleared away, making it sifc for this chivalrous youth te open his eyes, le! the ears were still ciect. Maddened te desperation, James straightened out his arm, grasped his revolver with ineic dclci initiation and fired three shete in quick succession, mak ing the snow and dirt lly some twenty reds out iu the field. As seen as the marksman recovered from his nervous stress he looked at the spot wheic he ex pected te see his prey stretched nut in the last agonies of death. And there, as be fore, were the extended nose, the spark ling eyes and long ears of ilie game. What te de James could net tell ; his ammuni tion was spent ; gunners weie passing the spotatsheit intuiva's, and if he went for mere cartridges some one might sheet the rabbit. After contemplating the long cars for a few minutes he thrust the re volver into his pocket and concluded te steal quietly up te the undisturbed rear of the rabbit and by a dexterous plunge secure in his hands the coveted prize. He succeeded iu getting near enough te reach the game and bracing his nerves for one desperate plunge, made a dive at the long ears, and gave vent te an exclama tion of delight as he felt, within his out stretched hands the head of a rabbit. Fer one moment lie steadied iu::im:1i against the hedge te gain breath, and then rose te his feet, but eh, thunder! what's this'' In his hands he held, tiuc enough, the head and long cars of a full-grown cotton-tail, but that was all, no body nor leg:-, net even the tail was attached ; with one impreca tion, James dashed the useless head te the ground, swore vengcance en the unmiti gated scoundrel who tricked him, and went home a sadder but wiser man. We noticed in the Tufjuircr of Lancas ter an article under the title of "He Slepctlr' purporting te be a transcript from the daily Intelligence!:, regarding a Docter Kelly of Georgetown. Having resided iu Georgetown and been familiar with all comers and goers for the past thirty years, we can truthfully say that no Dr. Kelley has cither married a widow or had been for "ena month's time'-" in our village. One Dr. Keelcy marricda widow Bancy Mime two ycais age in this place and is new lesldim, with her, next deer vi est of the writer of this article, and at tending te his practice. MASONIC.
