in the space from the roadway to the rules. High
above the met of these was a chimney stook,

silent, with the exception done, who replied, "Sire,

the public. The Sniper°, dinniesed his council with
these wordat—"All that state of things must cheap,

the fact' from • gentleman rmieing in the vicinity. The
smoking ruin, of the farm upon which these young
mama resided had Namely waled when the neighbour*
clubbed together, built them • log-house, and extem-
porized • sort of barn. Horse. were loaned to them,
and the girls with their own hands ploughed and seeded
it with eorn. The mop grew apace, and with their owu
hands they hanresterl it. They sold it to great advaltsea
