The " Northern Standard.

This is the title of a namesake of ours
nrinted at Keeseville, Essex County, \.
Y. We do not know Of a country paper
in the United States with such fine list
of female contributors as this same North
ern Standard. Mrs. P. A. Haynes, OF
Saranac, writes both prose and poetry
Some fine stories are from her pen. And
then, of writers of poetry, it has Mrs.
LewaId. Of Lewis c. H. H., of Essex :;
Isabella. of WiIlsborough Annie, OF
Ausable. and others Of more or less abll-
itv. But there is one that has attracted
our attention who is entitled to more than
a passing notice. She gives Us her sweet
and beautiful lines under the signature OF
MARION DALE. Taking up an odd num-
Der of the Northern Standard, the Other
day, our eye rested on an article entitled
g" SuADowY," which we determined a
once to transfer to our columns. As we
are slightly acquainted in Essex County
we had little difficulty in arriving at th'
conclusion that the real name of the au
thor is MARY H. WALPoLE, and we &C
cordingly publish it to her credit. This
we suppose. is the first time her nam
has been given to the world, and we nee
not blush to see it in print. In all he
writings there is a heart and soul far j
advance of the common throng that see
to amuse or interest through the publ
journals. We trust bright and haPp
future await her.

The War News.
A FARMER.

The intelligence brought by the Nj
agara, though startling to our readers,
cannot have b~en wholly unanticipated, in
view of the general Drift of matters dur
ing the last three months. The question
which now most readily occurs 10 every
mind is, what chances of peace yet re-
main, or rather did remain at the time of
steamers sailing? Sardinia, in spite Of
her determined attitude, might possibly
be disposed TO submit to Auslria's de-
mand. But consider her position. She
had an accession Of enthusiastic, fiery
volunteers from every part OF Italy, num-
bering about 10000 men. who had rush
ed thither with the expectation Of being
led against Austria, whose power they
hate with living hatred. i IT not ma.
nilest that these men could not be dis.
banded in moment with any safety? /

a Painful Case of Distress.

In the miserable attic of house in
Division street, says the Express Of last
evening, there lies young girl far ad-
vaneed in consumption. She was born
in Vermont, we'll educated, and brought
up accustomed to every comfoIt. Change
OF circumstances obliged her to come to
to New York and seek her living by the
needle. Friendless and alone. she labor
ed for the miserable pittance that sewing
girls receive here. She made an acquain-
tance who helped her at her work and
shared her precarious gains. At last,
IovertOil, alternatec oninementtoho hot rooms
and exposure to the weather, unseasona-
bic hours,and improper food, broke down

/ ed to the free mountain air of Vermont
She was struck with consumption, and
when she could no longer work, sh,
was deserted by her friend. Her it'll,
savings were soon dissipated. Sick,em

TO death in her attic, that can scarcely b,
called shelter, she was accidental,
found a few days ago by one ofthose be
nevolent women who spend their time il
searching out objects of Christian char
lty. Her case is one that calls loudly 70

ABOUT THE FIRE IN CLOVER
Since our last issue we have learned the
following particulars with reference to the
fire in Glover. Besides the Union Store.
the dwelling house Of Mr.. Aiken contig-
nous to the store was burned. Mr.. Al
ken's loss above his insurance is proba-
oily about $500.
The goods in the store, as was stated
in our last, were principally saved. AT
least, the insurance on them will cover
the loss. The building itself was owned
by Mr.. Smith, the postmaster, and altho'
insured for about 500, yet We learn that
be meets with dead loss Of about that.
The furniture in the house was almost all
destroyed, and the piano was only saved
by thrown it from the window Of the
second story. The fire is supposed to
have originated in a portion Of TIE barn
occupied as back store. in which were
stored quite a quantity Of rags and other
combHs,bles.

a HEALTHY COUNTY We think Or
leans county can justly boast of being
the healthiest county in the state. There
was not from the first day of December
last till into the first week in May, pc
riod of more tirsn five months, a single
entry in the Probate Office where the
deceased lived in this district. A like in
stance. we do not believe can be found in
any other locality of equal population in
the United States. Invalids who have &c
suffer from the diseases which flesh /:

a note of this, remove from the infected
districts and save their friends the troubl,
of attending a premature funeral.

Vermont Conference.

The Vermont Annual Conference OF
the NJ. f. Church met according to ap-
pointment in Barton, May 4. Bishop
Simpson was presents and presided during
the entire session The friends at Bar
ton had extended the usual invitation, to
the wives Of the Preachers to attend the
Conference, and we believe this extension
was gratefully improved. The weather
was excellent during the week and though
a very busy time for our community.

in attendance on the daily sessions of the
/ Conference. Anniversaries of the Anti
Slavery, Temperance, Missionary and Sab
bath School Societies were held afternoon
and evening, and were Of a highly inter-
Testing and probable character. Early
Sabbath morning, the people gathered
from every direction, expecting a rich
treat in listening to a sermon from the
Bishop. Seats were provided outside OF
J the Chapel and the windows removed, so
that all had an opportunity to listen. The
Bishop remarked that more than year

! a long and severe sickness. The last

BY MARY H. wALPoLE.

From one curtained window northward,
Where the western wall high towers,
Looking out among the elm trees
There have passed me gilded hours;
CHANGING out, as tripping near it,
Oft my work my foot would call,
Swift the minutes passed, while watching
For "A shadow on the wall.
Watching for a shadow? Truly
Not much profit would it bring
Nay, but was there ever shadow
That some substance did not fling:
Coming down nom y0nder hillside
I had heard 4 dear football
Passing meath the elms, figure
Threw its shadow on the wall.
Came it ever, without bringing
Kindly smiles on lip and eye;
Could one ever think of wishing
Aughr but good when one was by
List the words of gentle wisdom
Beats not thatEree heart for ALL
Is there not true manhood, even
In the shadow on the wall?
Blessings cast the deepest shadows
Otea-tnes upon the heart;
If the sun were always shining,
Could our earth perform her part'
Nature welcomes nightly shadow,
Glad to watch for mornings call,
But what shade can be so perfect
As this shadow on the wall
In its gloom all other shadows
Quickly lift away from view,
In its presence, aughr but beauty
Vanishes, like earthly dew.
Though in the clear summer sunlight
Changing shadows always fall,
Strange! tn eternal beams Of friendship
Glow in shadows On the wall
There's q shadow ever with you,
Hanging DER you-dO not start
Loves light throws gle purest shadow
Of the ideal in the heart.
Scorn you its enHobIiug presence;
Let your life be desert all?
N1y-you VIII be less a loser
Watching shadows on the wall
Is there in the light Of conscience,
Cast across thy soul by sin,
Still dark and fearful shadow?
Turn towards the Light within.
Turn to Him whose light is perfect,
Whence no shadows ever fall:
/ Soon, from out the unknown future,
Comes deaths shadow on the wall

APPLE TREE5.-Those apple trees
which we mentioned afew weeks since, as
being raised by Mr.. C. Cushman of Hart
land, have begun to arrive, and they are
acknowledged by all who have seen them
to be put up the best of any that have
ever been brough. into the County. Mr..
Cushman takes the greatest pains to have
them put up as they should be, and we
feel warranted in saying that if those who
intend to raise apples will take as much
pains in setting the trees and cultivating
them after they are set, that he does in
sending them, there will be no trouble in
making them live. He takes the pains
TO collect moss, which he places around
the roots Of the tree, and then saturate:
them with water, and as a result they vii
keep a long while without injury.

Foreign News.

Our files of English papers brought By
the Niagara, at Boston on the 9Th inst,
contain scarcely anything relating to the
alarming demand made by Austria upon
Sardinia, beyond what we have already
received by telegraph. But they present
many items of interest in regard to the
general progress of events, OF which we
make the following summary:
