-FARMERs, BEAT Tms. There was
m1de on the poor farm IN the town of
lIardwick in 1852, from eight cows, 1903
lbs of butter, and the same sold to Della
no &Co. at - cents, besides using all was
necessary in the family, composed Of clcy-
en- mostly old men. During said time, sick
ness and death was CA the farm. The
said butter was made by Mrs. :. Ward, be-
sides having the whole care and supervision
of the family, excepting five or six weeks
of woman's labor.
And again, during the pas, season, 1853,
made from the same cows, land by the
same hand, with four TO six weeks addition
al labor l72S lbs. of butter, AMI sold to
J. Il. Delauo SEQ. at 20 - cts, and on
hand to inventory 90 lbs, making in all
l7sS lbs, besides the family use, Tor eight
persons. Not much less than 200 lbs. in
addition is to be added to the profits dcriv-
ed from said cows. DARN the two wears
ia,ted 26lis lbs. of pork. The labor on
said farm has been performed by NJ. s.
Ward, except about 90 days in having
each year, besides making the farm an asy-
un for the poor and distressed, with all
the cares and attention that could be be-
slowed to meliurate the cndition of the un-
fortunate, by the worthy couple. The
town has been able by such management to
liquidpte all debts agains, said farm and
the cNpences of out side paupers, mot on
the FARM and one insane man at Brat
tlcboro', excepting few dollars.
We say to the farmers of Old Caledo-
MIA who have or have not ''poor" farms, 90
aud do likewise.

-MissioNARr MrrriNGAr ESSEX
We have received says the Free Press,
from Rev. A. d. Barber, Secretary Of the
Missionary Convention recently held ut Es-
sex, the statement made by DIR. Pomcroy,
Secretary of the A. b. C. f. NJ. Our lin
lis not allowing It's insertion, We give brief
abstract.
DIR. Pomeroy said the Board sustains be-
tween 600 and 700 missionaries and help
ors, natives and foreign, and has in its l03
mission churches between $4,000 aud %,
600 members.
The expenses of the year will probably
reach, $4,000. The Churches in India
do not tolerate caste among their members,
and nerer did. There is now no case Of
polygamy, though long since an old man
with two wives was a member, who said
one was as much his wife ms the other, and
he didn't know which TO pat away. As TO
Slavery, there are now a few members Of
the Choctaw and Cherokee Churches who
hold slaves. The Board has no right 10
interfere with the internal discipline ofihese
churches. II however insiructs its mis-
sion1rics 10 strive 10 abolish the cyll.--ln
the Sandwich Islands, the Board has eff
tected the emancipation of 100000 slaves
in 30 years being, tho whole population
except the Chiefs. Rev J. II. Worcester
SAID that his brother, who is missionary
10 the Cherokees, informed him that
the continuance Of slavery umong the
Cherokees depended ON whether the Board
Withdrew ITS missionaries or not. If they
sustained them, then Slavery would in time
disappear.
