ployed on the New Jersey Central railroad, near
Spruce Run, about l2 miles from this place.

their own country. Since that time the laborers
employed at different points of the road have
formed themselves into parties, and have had
several battles Several men have been shot
two killed. The sheriff has called out the mill

THE FARMERS ELEGY.

On the green messy knoll by the banks Of the
brook,
That so long and so often had watered his flock,
The old farmer rests in his long and last sleep,
While the waters q low lisping lullaby keep;
He has ploughed his last furrow has Ieaped his
last grain;
No morn shall awake him from slunber again.
The blue bird sings sweet on the gay maple
bough;
It's warbling oft chcered him while holding the
plough;
And the robins above him hop light on the
mould,
For he fed them with crumbs when the season
was cold.
Ynn tree that with fragrance is filling the air,
So r,ch with its blossoms. so thrifty AMI fair,
BY his own hand was planted, and well did he
say,
Ii woulI live when the planter had mouldercd
away.
There's the we'll that he dug with its water so
cold,
With its wet dripping bucket so messy and old;
No more from its depth by the patriarch drawn,
For the pitcher is broken, the old man is gone !
Twas gloom given day when the old farm
cr died.
The stou,-hearted moarned, the ahec,ionate
cried,
And tb- prayers OF. the rest for him did ascent,
For they all lost brother, man and friend.
For upright and honest the old farmer was;
His God he revcred, he respected the laws,
Though lameless he lived, he las gone where
his worth
Will ortshine, like pure god all the dross of
the earth.

ans to this long established school. which in past
days has enjoyed so much public confidence and
patronage under the able direction of the late
DR.. Magraw. and the presen! Prof. G. Burrows,
Of Lafayette College. 1t is earnestly hoped that
its present management will not be found I'M
worthy Of its past history. Boys will either be
prepared for college, or business pursuits as
their friends may direct. Board and lodging
can be had in quiet Christian families in the
Immediate vicinity, at the rate ofS2 90 week.
The principal would be glad to receive into his
own house four young boys.
The charge tortuition is $40 per session for
classical scholars, 81 per session for English
scholars. The next session will commence on
WEDNESDAY, 9Th day of November next.
The school enjoys the advantage Of being situa-
