One night, while I wals residling teom iorar~lily inl tile village of S., I wats re ilestedl by miy friend M., to go with limi an~d four otherls, and~ assist iln mak ng~ nighit hideous, at thle dwellinugs of rarious bright eyed beauties of tile Owln. I 1ha4 but lately arrived in the ,lace, but my friends1 hlad been there or some1 time, and assured mel that it rae the custom of thle young ladios to 'eward their admirers with cakes and aud ies, and those articles being r'ath-. r scarce at tile time, (it was (luring ho war,) I at once consenlted to go. ho a little after dlark, all fortified with obacco and a flask of the wherewith I,- we .salliod forthl and proceeded o I asemfliay of young ladles in the uburbs. Not being provided with astruments, we had but to res~rt to Fox et pr'eterea nii," and M. who ndertook to load sot up a mostmeo-. bons squall, while the rest of us join d In the chomdus. As sdon as wve had nished the song a goodly bundle flew ut of the window. I at once jumped ver tile fence, to scure it, and h~ad1 ist got my fingers upon it when I be. tame awaro of the proximity of a 1ood speulmcil. of the genus Cands, species Bull, who cxliibited such os tile symptois, that it became iocossa. ry to display my agility by jumping the fences. I succeeded in getting L)ver ill but my coat tail, which the infernald (log got, hold of, and hold to with genuine bull tenacity, keeping ile ssipended inl a rather painiful po eition, while my f'riends below, and the girls above shouted with latghter at my ridicilous appeatralnce, anythingI but ridiculous to me, however. Af ter various fratic but vain struggles onl mlly part, to get loose, 31. picked pl) a stick and punched the dog with it s hard, that tIte beast let ate go alnd seized it, and then 31. let go id the alimiule left. I had kept hold of the bindle all tlie tiei, so that wheni I lattded oii t. rrah nu, it was till safe. After this lit tie episode, we all sang a Iother song with great applaluse, atid received nuother uindle, Which fell outside the fence this titte, so that Ito trotblle was unitderonie to get it. As we started to Sing a third there was sonme little commotion inl tle acrademny, and dreading a row, we came see, just about there. Briniging tip about. a hundred yards below, We divided the spoils, took a horn, and proceeded else where. Going into the boart of the villge we stopped at a stiall house, and trelited the inmates to two series oft ithe howlsgrunts and groans which were considered to represent sonlgs. They thereuipotn firinished uts with two bouquets of flowers, growing out of to baceco pouelies, filled wvith tobacco, these we drew lots for aid they did't fitl to tite. Two more hornis a piece were t]tent served out, and ott we Went. By the titte we reached another house which we intended to bore, we were all1 pretty well how-camile-you-so, and we agreed to try the Operatic style. This itt our opinion consisted itn eacht mant singintg a separato song at tie top of his voice with a few yells by way of variation. Wo had no sooner tinl ished the first few lines, thant the illib eral initates, instead of receiving us with favor, commenced fire witi a boot-jack which struck 31. ott tite shi, puttiig him hors de combat it once, and eliciting a volley of oaths that would have done Ionor(i' to anty trtoope'. Taking this slight hiit we left, help ing 31. along as well -ts we cottid, cont sidering outr condition, and started for hoie, "Bit all too drunk our coirse direct tosteer," we mistook the wav an1td wandered out in the country, and after stu11mbling alotg for what 1 thought was at least four miles, wo till fell into a small gully, a I lay tiere till mtornting, sleeping as best we could.
