Undid net leek as if lie had started in tlie freitmriw of the morning, but had footed it all nklit, and meant te de the same all day. " Geed morning, iulster,'ftuld Demiuicus, when within speakiug disUiice. " Yeu co a prettv geed Jeg. What's tlie latest neu a at Parker's rails T" The man pulled the bread brim of a grav hat ever his eyes and answered, rather sul leDly, that be did net ceme from I'arker's Falls, which, as being the limit et his own day's Journey, the peddler had naturally mentioned in his inquiry. " Well, then," rejoined Dominions Vike, " let's have the latest news where you did come from. I'm net particular about Par ker'a Tails. Any place will answer." Being thus impertuned, the traveler who was an ill-looking a fellow nsoue would do de sire te meet, in a solitary piece et woods weeds appeared te hesitate a little, as if he wa either searching his memory ler news or weighing the expediency of telling it. At last, mounting en the Mop of tlie cart, he whispered in the ear el Deuilnlcus, though he might have shouted aloud and no ether mortal would have beard him. "I de remember one little trltle of news," said he. Old Mr. Uigginbellitun, of Kim Kim ballten, was murdered in Ills orchard, at eight o'clock last night, by an Irishman and a nigger. Tliey strung him up te the branch etafcit. Michael's pear tree, where nobody would find Mm till the mernlug " it. As seen as this horrible intelligence was communicated the strauuer betook himself te his Journey again, with mero speed than ever, net even turning his head when Douil Deuil nlcus Invited him tosmeku a Spanish cigar and relate all the particulars. The peddler whistled te his ninreaud went up the hill, pondering en the delelnl fate of Mr. Ulgglu Ulgglu betbam, whom he had known In the way el trade, having sold blm many u bunch of long nines and agteatdoalef pigtail, lady's twist and tig tobacco. He was rather astonished at the rapidity with which the news had spread. Klmballten was nearly sixty miles distant in a straight line; tlie murder bad been perpetrated only at eight o'clock the preceding night ; yet Dominions had heard etitat aeven in the morning, when, in all probability, peer air. utggintieluaui'H own lamlly had but Just discovered his corpe, banging en the Sl Michael's pear tree. The stranger en feet must have worn Bevon Beven leaguo beets te travel at such a rate. " 111 news Hies fast, they say," thought DomlnlcusPike j " but thls'beats railroads. The fellow euIit te be hired te go express with the president' message." The dllliculty was solved, by Buppeslnu that the narrator hud made a mistake of ene day in the date et the occurrence ; se that our friend did net hesitate te introduce the story at every tavern undceiintry store along the read, expending a whole bunch of Span ish wrappers among at least twenty herritied audiences. He found himseil invariably the llrst bearer of the intelligence, ami was he pestered with questions that he could net avoid filling lip the outliue till it became quite a respectable narrative. He met with one piece of corrubeiutlvo evidence. Mr. Iligglnbetbam was u trader , and a former clerk of bis te whom Deinlnlcus related the facts, testified that the old gentleman was ac customed te return home through tlie or chard about nightfall with the money and laluuble papers of the tttoieiuhis pocket. The clerk manifested but little grlel at Mr. Ulgginbetham's catastrophe, hinting, what the peddler bad disco ered in his ou n deal ings with blm, that he was a crust' old fel low, as close us a ise. His property would descend te a pretty niece w he w as new keep lug school at Kiinballten. What with telling the news for the public geed, and driving bargains for his enu, Deinlnlcus was e much delayed en the read that he chose te put up at u tavern alieut live miles uliert of Parker's Kails. Alter supper, lighting one or his prime cigars, he heated himself in the bar-room and went through the story of the murder, which bad grown w fast that it took him half an hour te tell. There were as many as twenty people lu the room, nineteen or whom received it all for gospel. Hut the twentieth was an elderly farmer, who bad arrived en horseback n short time before and was new heated in a corner smoking his pipe. When the story wrb concluded he rose up very deliberately, brought his chair right in Irontef Demiiucus aad Htared him full In the face, pulling out the vilest tobacce-smoko the peddler had ever smelt.

I de net knew whether or net in the various Hillings and rouieval?, the house cleanings and beuse warmings of City hall, the old original minute ImjuU el the city fathers has been lest. Itut, feitunately fur our local history Mr. tea bteintuan et this city has had a copy of it made, which he cherishes with ether treasures el the local antiquarian. The town, you knew, though laid out by James Hamilton in 17.0 was riot chartered until May 1, ITU, and the gram of its corporation was tlien made, as it says "te promote Trade, Industry, Hule ami geed order amongst all our subjects of our special grace" the "aid granter beiug ills majeity, Geerge tlie Second, by th grace el Ged, through Ins Lieutenant Governer Geerge Themas, under Jehn, Themas and Itichard Penn, esqs., preprietaries. 'I nemas toekson, who was the tirst chief burgess, was 11 man of nole and lived en Orange street. Sebastian Gratl, the burgess, lived ou the hind new occupied by the I aucister cemetery and his family built Sheber's hotel, as the Inscription en the stone iu front teslllies. The assistant burgesses who made the town ceuucil of that day were the lead ing men or the place; and it is a coincidence that the 11 ime attached te these first minutes as dork is the samu ns that or tlie mayor el UT, years later Geerge bandorsen, who, by the way, was chiel executivoer the city a longer ieried than any .ether man iu its history, lsfiO-es ; next came Mr. Carpenter who had eight ycrs, ISIJ-51. The lirst municipal legislation had here, alter thanks for the charter, as the local historian has taken it Irem these old minutes, was an erder prohibiting secular employ empley incut en Lord's day, allowing butchers, however, le kill en Sunday in June, July, August they preserved no ice at that lime, though nature made It all the s.11110 and in structing the constables te search tlie public neuses ler tipplers. 11 seems mat notvvlth netvvlth standing the actor assembly it had bevoiue "toeciistomnry for thoshep-keciKirs, tavern keepers aud ethers within the borough te ioiievv ineir ordinary callings ou tee sabbath day, the ihoi-keepers by selling out their goods 10 the country cople nnd the tavern keepers eiitertalulug company , the butchers also keeping open shops uud helling their meat during the whule day." Prem that tlme ou, us traced by the burgesses' pro ceedings recorded in ibis minute book, the town council legislated chlelly en matters of domestic concern : and the study el them has much curious Interest. "The llberty taken by chapmeu licensed te travel with goods for supplying the country, in bettlng up stalls within this corporation particularly at thu times of elections and court, and ex posing tueir goods te sale," bad grown te be a gross abuse, infringing "iqieii the rights mid privileges el thu shop-keepers nnd a great discouragement of people settling here."
