In or near what is popularly knowD as ' The Nation" Hollo *-eeu was observed tbe first ot last week. Along In tbe same sectiou, the same observance has been followed dur ing the recollection of tbe oldest inhabitant. It has been transmitted, during all ot those j ears, from father to sou, aud time has not lessened the pranks in uumbcr. A little bnrmless fun is not objectionable, but when acts are done that are liable to bring danger or barm to any one, there It goes too far. Pulling down fences, letting st<>ck out, tearing up bridges is rather too much of a good thing. A uulque Hallow-een party was held at Bennettsvllle, by which no harm, but good resulted. The citizens united In various ways besides the selling of refreshments, and raised $5000, with which a town clock was bought which was p'ofliable and pleasant, to all concerned. In the old way the actors enjoyment is the victims suffering. Quite an Interesting Missionary Meeting was beld in the Baptist Cnurcb, In this place, last night. Kev. A. C.
