These gentlemen are well known through
out the county as warm and steadfast friends
of Agriculture, aud under their auspices the
societycannot fail to move on as swimmlngly
as heretofore. The old officers can retire with
the conscious assurance of having done
their duty to the satisfaction of the people,
and the incoming ones would do well to
take the course Of their predecessors for a
guide by which to be governed. m,
Canal Boat Sunk.-Since our return home
we learn that the canal boat "Sultana,"
loaded with MERIDIAN disc for this city, Logan
and Bremen was sunk on Friday Of last
week some FIVE or six miles above this place.
1t was occasioned by the ice cutting through
the bottom of the boat and filling it with
water before the pumps could be put in OPP
GRAFTON. The damage to the freight on
board is considerable, and will probably
reach four hundred dollars. Our Logan
friends will be the principal losers. The
firms of Efinger, White g. Latta, P. Bope
and Geo. Wygum are the losers in this city
Our Road.-Two freight trains for the C
w. g. z. Rail Road arrived in this city on
Saturday and are intended to be used in
completing the road west of this city. The
track laying is progressing rather slowly
and is only finished some seven or eight
miles west. b
We learn that some difficulty has occur.
redip throwing up the embankment over
the Muddy Prairie, owing to the extreme
s%oitness of the soil, causing the track to
sink some thirteen or fourteen inches within
the past few days. Fears are entertained
that the road will have to be changed, SO as
to avoid, if possible, the prairie altogether.
This is a serious obstacle in tho way Of the
road, and we cannot see how the matter
can be remedied. .tf

PRAYER.

There is an eye that never sleeps
Beneath tho wing Of night;
There is an ear that never shuts
When sink the beams of light.
There is an arm that never tires
When human strength gives way,
There is love that never fails
When earthly loves decay.
That eye is fixed on seraph throngs;
That ear Is filed with angels, songs;
That arm upholds the world on high;
That love is thrown beyond the sky.
But there's power which man can WELD
When mortal aid is vain;
That eve, that arm, that love to reach,
That listening ear to gain;
The power is prayer, which scars on high
And feeds on bliss beyond the sky

ssFubbs,I want to talk to you while, and want
you to keep awake while 1 do it. You want
to go to sleep7 Yes you always want to go to
sleep, but 1 don't. I'm not one of the sleepy
kind. It's good thing for you, Mr.. Fubbs,
that you have wife who imparts information
by lectures, else you would be perfect igno-
ramus. Not a thing about the house to read,
except the bible that the Christian Associa-
tion gave you, and tract that fellow called
Porter left one day, entitled Light for the
Heathen.' It's well he left it for you are a
heather, Fubbs. You thank God you ainst a
too, you profane wretch? You mean you are
glad you hain't but one wife. You never
would have known there was Mormon, Mr..
Fubbs, if 1 hadn't told you, for you're too
stingy to take paper. Now, Fubbs! I de-
clare your name ought to be Fibbs, you tell so
many of 'em. It's only last week that lost
one dollar and fifty cents on butter that sold
to peddler, because didn't know the mar
ket price, which is published every week.
This would have paid for the paper asswhole
Didn't you take your gun t'other day, and
walk clear down to the Big Marsh hunting,
because somebody told you the Turkeys were
marching into Rushes? Yes, YOU did,
Fubbs, you needn't deny it. But the Turkeys
we're all out of the Rushes,I guesa, before you
got there. Didn't kill any, did your 1t was
bad day for turkeys, wasn't it 2 Ha! ha! ha!"
