Thai, Sleigh Eiie.
VTe wero one of a party of some
twenty or twenty-fire couples that- want
a sleigliioj; to Ceotrevillo, sd to a
dance at the MoCauley House, last
Thursday eveeing. The sleighing was
all thut could reasonably be neked, r.ud
in about an hour and a half from the
lime of starting we -were lar.dci at the
MeCaulcy House where m found a
jovial company already acscii.Med. Wi
noticed among the number Glial le.
McVcan, postmaster at St. Mjr)'s,anJ
some ten or fifteeu couples that hailed
from the same place.
We forgot to mention (lint it was a n old
folke's parly although from tha way tha
oil boys danced aad itold sloriei, Co., (etc.,
which means fire-water) ore would Htip oso
them to have been a parly of y oiiugslcrs,
in iheir teens. Hirm's tiring lan.lconi
tinting in part of Ju.ues Harm nnJ Frank
Dill furnished music for the occasion, nnJ
(rom the rapid manner in vtl.hli dance suc
ceeded dance, r.o one will accuse them of
neglecting their vocation. Among other
gcntlen ea present we noticed Isaac lloyton,
and Alf. Short of hor licat, tut speaking
uf Isaac reminds us of a story that John
Kimo told vs during the progress of the
festivities in this wise; last fall during
the political canvass, Isaac discov
ered that his eyesight was growing dim,
and, pondering he concluded that he
would purchase a pair of spectacles, lie
dropped in to Powell & K:mes store for
tbivt purpose; several pairs were shown bim,
tut none suited, some wero too young and
soiuo too old; finally he picked up a pair,
tried them on and with a newspaper be
fore his eyes, declared Oiat t he eyes of his
boyhood days never served him batter; and
taking tho clerk to task for not having
shown him this pair In tho first place.
The clerk lock the spectacles; and putting
his finger throw tho bows convinced Isaac
that there was no glass iu them, proving
that Isaac was laboring uudsr an optical
illusion, ffbat did Isaao d? Nothing, he
only laughed. But to riturn to the dance.
Isaao was the first one on the floor ani
iho last one to leave in the morning; he
said he could't half dance because his
puaips were packed with the rest of his
goods and oa their way to Northeast. We
will not fur. her enumerate but add ia con
cliisioa that all present were unanimous
in tht opinion that it was the best dunce of
tht season.
The supper was very good, and much
enjoyed after- our fide of ten miles, and
our dance of one hour before supper. We
think the host and hostess of the MoCauley
House are Reserving ot a great deal od
praiee, f r such on e'ejaut repast and
gotten up in the thcrt time of one day.
We for one, say let's go again.
In the morning we came home but the
bright visionof the night before was lent to
our mind, and, in the languaga of the poet
we exclaimed;
Bel Is are ringing all the day,
Money spent Bind thrown away,
For sure there is the de I to pay,
When a man goes out a sleighing. '

As Jesse Miller, of Albany township,

one of his girls attempted to pour fism
a kettle some hot water, a few chops of

of the father; whereupon ia a fit of rage,
he seised a dipper, poured it full of
boiling water, and dashed it into his

more fortunate than the people of their
county, contribute food, clothing, fuel
and graiu to relieve the desperate wants
of over seven hundred families now suf
fering the rigors of thecovere winter
without any means of helping them
selves, the drouth and grasshoppers of
lust summer destroying their entire
crops and blasting every green thing Id

is suggested, that some organized effort
may.be made to answer this stirring
appeal, starvation and death staring
these people in the face while our peo

Col. Augustus F. Allen of Jamestown,
Congressman elect in tho Chautauqua
District, died at his home last Wcdoes
day, January 20th, 1875. The Journal
says: "Dor several weeks the Colonel
has been stricken down with -a spinal
disease, which from the beginning af
feoted more or less his brain, and which,
by slow proosss, has dragged him dow o
to bis grave Possessed of great wealth,
which he had acquired as (he legiti
mate fruits of a distinguished business
capacity, and an honorable industry, he
uuited a pnblte spirit and liberality
which gave him great iulluetee, aod a
popularity which had made hitu the
forcmoat man not only in Jamestown,
but in the county of Chautauqua. His
death is a public calamity. Ho bus
been striken cfown in the fullness ot his
honors and his fame, aud under circum
stances of peculiar hardship. His wife
and children were all away, and are not
permitted to look upon his face alive."
Some time ogo his wife aud children
weut to Europe to spend the winter.
Mrs Allen and eon, Alfred are on their
way ko'jie, but had not arrived t the
time of Mr. Alleu'a dra'Ji. Col. Allen
was a very exemplary and useful citizen.
His death will make a new elcutiou t'or
Congressman uwssary in that distriot.
Col. Allvu was the son of Elisha
Allen well known iu Warreu County
