preservation would be to them to be printed,
and copy sent to each town in the commonwealth
The expense would be small in comparison with the
Importance of their contents, for they comprise
the proper history of of the most important states
in the Union-they contain many. very interesting
particulars respecting the early towns and churches
of the commonwealth, no where else to be found
they convey much valuable information, respecting
the early Indian wars, and facts connected with the
troublous times of Roger Williams, Ann Hutchinson,
John Wheelright, and others-and the consequent
prosecutions which agitated the infant Colony for
long period. The Legislature in their late session
took notice of this sub Ject but nothing done. We
hope the matter will be taken up at the next session.

NEWSPAPERS.-A return has been laid be-
fore the House of Commons of the number OF
Stamps issued to Newspapers in London and the
country, from the year ending October 10, 1886,
to October 10, 1889, together with the number OF
papers and the amount of stamp and advertise
ment duty. 1t appears from these that the great
est increase has taken place in the English pro-
yincial press. In the year ending October 10,
1886 the total number published was 1874 the
stamps issued $685., 1896, and the amount of duty
II3.8O4I In 1888 the numbers were 240 news
papers, 20, 1871 7S0 stamps, considerably more than
double the amount in 1886, and the duty S3,52ol.
The advertisement duty paid by the provincial
papers has also increased consideraby-the total
amount in 1886 being 43,001, and in 1889,
$4,000.
In the London papers, during the same period
the number Of advertisements had Increased
from $50, sos TO 633, 400, the duty being in the
respective years Al 234L, and 4S,5lR. The mum
Der of papers of all sorts had increased from II
to 1876, and the stamps issued from l9, 24l $40 to
80, 1852 ,263, and the amount of duty had fallen
fir ON 256, 1851 to III $780,
In Scotch papers there has also been consid-
cradle increase; the number of stamps issued in
1886 being 1854, 438, and in 1880, 4O14, 1884, pro-
ducing duty Of 16,644I, while in 1886 it was
35,392l The advertisement duty had increased
from I0,609l to l3, 1871.
In the Irish papers the increase is very trifiug,
the total number of stamps issued in 1886 being
5,l44,5S2, and in 1889, 5,622, l2i. The adver-
tisement duty had increased from 1896 to 8 43S.
1t thus appears that the increase of the circu-
lation of Newspapers i'll these three years, has
been in the following proportions:-Irish 10 per
cent; Scotch 81 per cent; London So per cent; and
Provincial 1877 per cent.
The increase altogether has been "a millions
of copies, which would bring in revenue of
10000 year for paper duty, suppoSing the
Newspapers remained of the original size, but
but most of them have been greatly enlarged; so
that the increase in the paper duty fer Newspa-
pers alone may be safely reckoned at 25,0O0t a
year. The increase on the advertisement duty has
been 20,500l

POETRY.

The following is one of the best written and mo
popular songs of the day. 1t is set to the tune
s'Auld Lang Syne."
THE FARMER OF NORTH BEND.
Can grateful freemen slight his claims,
Who bravely did defend
Their lives and fortunes on the Thames,
The Farmer of North Bend
The Farmer of North Bend my boys,
The Farmer of North Bend,
Wen give right good hearty vote
To the Farmer of North Bend.
The trump of Fame in storied song
The Patriots deeds shall tell,
And Freedoms voice the strain prolong,
The gladstone chorus swell.
The gladstone chorus swell, my boys,
The gladstone chorus swell,
Well Join tonight in merry song,
The gladstone chorus swell.
The Chieftian heard the stirring drum,
And bent his soldiers bow,
But victor soon-he hasted home,
His farming fields to NOW.
His farming fields to NOW, my boys,
His farming fields to NOW,
Exchanged the sabre for the scythe,
His farming fields TO NOW.
Though Youthful valor bravely won
The laurel for his brow,
Yet vct'ry's own triumphant son
Now holds the Yeoman's plough,
Now holds the Yeoman's plough, my boys,
Now holds the Yeoman's plough,
And soon we'll try his trusty hand
To hold the Nations plough.
Now hear the note, his country's call,
From the hil-tops and the shore,
1t comes from camp, and cot, and hall,
And all the valleys DER.
And all the valleys DER, my boys,
And all the valleys DER,
1t calls him to the rescue, boys,
From all the valleys DER.
The hero, who long years ago,
Once wore the warriors mail,
Now comes to beat the Yeoman's foe,
Farmer with his fail,
A Farmer with his fail, my boys,
A Farmer with his fail,
And they'll get right good threshing yet
From the Farmer with his fail.
Then cheer we up, my boys, tonight,
helping hand we'll lend,
And pledge the old Key Stone tonight,
To the Farmer of North Bend.
To the Farmer of North Bend, my boys,
To the Farmer of North Bend,
Well pledge the old Key Stone tonight
To the Farmer of North Bend.
