home good amusement na; m-el <>u une evening last week at Carterton b. tne erratic performances of several would-be equestrians wi o endeavoured to mount an unbroken horse belonging to Mr E H. Buckeiiige, of tire Marquis of Sormanby. One enterprising youth who boasted that ho c mid ride anything was most unceremoniously pitched into a hole used for the reetptitjle for tub. bish. Another equally bold adventurer was jammed against a fence with the result that his leg lost some of its natural bark. No 3 suggested that if a white handkerchief were tied across the nag’s optics he would ride tue steel to Satan's domains, so, to show his agility, this was done, but the long distance traveller did not accomplish his projected journey, as although he made a good start, ne landed in quite a summary manner opposite Mr Moriarty's boot shop, where he wal- . > wedin,thedust, and lost some of the hot blood of his cranium, next requiring the attendance of Mr Liudop, chemist, who prescribed for his self sought wounds. The colt after imi'■ating the game of blind-man’s-buff up and down the -licet, was eventually secured and relegated to the stible.
We have a nice little story alloat here concerning a so-called editor clearing out of Weiington and not paying ids board and lodging bhl. It was very disquieting to meet the undladv at a public meeting and to be asked in no whisper for tne money. Poor man, be wis the observed of all Observers. When he saw the old lady be thought be was a clairvoyant and had seen a spirit ; but there was nothing of the zephyr about her, as she gave Mm a poke with her parasol. When we remember the past we are not surprised. We now await the future. He couldn't attend the Lyceum because of the representation of the Hallelujah Band, yet called it a good representation of the “ scum ” who attend the salvation meetings.
