Gus purposes for the interest of said town,
by orders made by the Board of Commission

Second, it appears from an examination OF
the Minutes and Records of the Board OF

now due, and others that will fall due during

The Clerk further shows in his Report,
that there dre uhcollected assets due the
Commissioners, consisting of Notes, Ac-
counts, and arrears of Taxes, amounting in
all, as will fully appear by reference to said
report, to ST ,2I5 20.
The lntendant thinks it far to conclude
that not more than one halt of the uncollect-
ed assets will ever he realized and in that
view, the next Board of Commissioners will
have TO levy such Tax will in their dis
cTetIou defray the current expenses for the
year 1879, and in connection with what may
be realized from the uncollected assets, pay
of the present abilities.
All OF which is respectfully submitted.

Doctor, HE HAS DONE IT.-A physician
tells the following story. not without
some regret on his part for the advice
given:
"A hard working woman had drunken
husband, who when partly sober, would
get the blues and endeavor to destroy him
self by taking laudanum. Twce did the
wife ascertain that he had swallowed the de-
structive drug. and twice did the doctor re-
store him. Upon the second restoration the
doctor addressed him as follows: You
good o noting scoundrel, you don't want to
kill yourself, you merely want to annoy
your wife and me. If you want to kill your
self why don't you cut your throat and put
an end to the matter 2" Well, away went
the doctor, and thought no more of his pa
tient until, some two or three weeks after,
he was awakened from IL sound nap by the
tinkling of his night bell. lie put his head
out of the window and inquired What's
the matter - ''Ductor, he has done it,"
was the reply. q" Done what ~ John
has taken your advice" What advice -
Why, you told him to cut his throat, and
lie has done it. and he is uncommon dead
this time" Imagine the doctors feelings.
lie has since ceased giving such cutting
advice"

SPEAK A GOOD WORD, OR SAY
NOTHING AT ALL.

NOTHING AT ALL.
There's a species of SANDER abroad IN the
world,
Against good Deighbor, oh! frequently
hurl'd,
Not always with malice. with envy or spite
Yet fatal to friendship, good feeling and
right.
Remcmber--and fail not your trust to
fulfil
A brother, tho absent. a brother is still;
Wherever ysu be. or whate'er may befall'
Oh! speak a good word, or say nothing
at all.
There are duties we owe when together
we're met,
We are all of us only too apt to forget;
Be bIithe if you will when the wine-cup
is prrst.
But plant not a wound in an innocent
breast;
Rebuff the foul charge to the slanderer's
shame,
Who. fend-like, would blacken another's
fair fame.
Love is sweeter than honey-strife bitter
as gall,
Then speak good word, or say nothing
at all
