Little Acts of Kindness.

They are the sweeteners of ones
life. 1t is through their potent pow
er that many heart is made to lie .p
with gladness-many a dark and
gloomy howell to shine as a palace
many a heart frozen with selfshness
to melt in tenderness and love-many
an eye dimmed with tears to smile for
joy. 1t is immaterial how small the
act, if to soul capable of appreciat-
ing such acts of kindness, they will be
treasured up in fond memory's urn, as
one of the brightest gems of all its
caskets of jewels. Singly or multi
piled, they are ever precious and val
liable; large or small, they are ever
cheering and welcome If mankind
paid more attention to, and placed a
higher estimation upon those little
trifes, as they are too frequently ter
med, life would be sweeter-friends
nearer, dearer, truer, and more nu-
merous. To do en- act of kindness
costs but trifle, sometimes nothing /;
and then how gratifying to the bestow-
er and receiver in almost every in
stance. Truly happy indeed is that
man, who in his intercourse with
mankind, acts out the golden rule OF
doing unto others as he would they
should do unto him.

A Tribute
To the Memory Of Henry A. Wtl'iamson,
r LAMBERTvILLE, N. j.

Our brother dead it seems but yesterday
We saw him flushed with life-and gay;
Our brother dead-we say 1t DER and Ger,
Then we shall see him, on earth, no more.
He was the youngest of brother band,
Gone home we trust to far better land;
And thus we see our loved ones pass away,
Yesterday SO fair in life, and cold in death to-day
Where the Pacific waves with beauty grand,
Wash California's shining strand;
Fond hearts will mourn, eve hoped to meet again
Augustus here; and yet the hope was vain"
At Cairo where the soldiers bayon.ts CLEAN,
And warlike banners Ger the town now stream
A brother there will hear "sad news from home, y
Mid anxious care, that faithful heart will mourn
And on the pra RE, midst the fairest bloom,
We too will mourn, that he was called so soon
Our brother, oh the bitter tear drops fall,
When we the past, and that loved form, recall
Dear ones at home, you watched our brother die,
Saw him pass away, ar heard the last goodbye,
Our Father bless, and help you bear the rod
In grief we Il bow toHim, our Father and our God

Home Courtesies.

A correspondent gives us this ex-
perience am one of those whose
lot in life has been to go out into an
unfrieDdly world at an early age and
of nearly twenty families in which |
made my home in the course of about
nine years, there were only three or
four that could be properly designated
as happy families, and the source OF
trouble was not so much the lack of
love as lack of care to manifest 1t. :"
What world of misery is suggested
by this brief remark Not over three
or four happy homes in twenty, and
the cause SO manifest, and so easily
remedied All, in the /" small sweet
courtesies of life" what power resides !!
In look, a word, a tone, how much
of happiness or disquietude may be
communicated. Think of its reader,
and take the lesson home with you.

VIII t is an Ambulance.

An ambulance is light carriage, the
body being mounted upon two wheels
and supported by very elastic, light
springs. It is little over six feet
in length. There are cots for two in
side, with beds, head pillows, &c. The
top is covered with oil cloth, but the
body and running gears are painted
red. The ambulance is intended for
one horse, with seat for the driver
in front, and being very light, though
strongly built, can be driven along
very rapidly without injury to the
wounded.

Militia.

The 31St day of August is near at
hand when our militia of this County
will muster by company, as this is the
day set for it here. The Law for the
more effeetual organization of militia
is now in force, and will be carried
out to the letter, if not it will be the
fault of our Brigade and regimental

by their superiors, as it concerns all
from the COMMANDMENT Chief down
to private.

Samuel SOlliday d Co. VS.. the Hunter
don Co. Fire Insurance Company.
This case was arbitrated before
George Warner, John Blackfan and
Charles Thompson, arbitrators, at
New Hope on the 9th instant. Sam
uel Solliday & Co., the firm consist
ing of Samuel Solliday and Charles
Palmer, were engaged in the boat
building business at New Hope, and
on the third of January last, had their
stock of materials for building boats
and their unfinished boats insured in
the above-named company, whose
place of business and principal Off
GERS were located at Lambertvllle,
New Jersey The stock was insured
to an amount not exceeding $4,000.
On the 9th of February, some hands
were engaged in raising the sides of
a new boat, and, it being cold day,
a fire was started in stove, in room
connected with the ESTABLISH ment call
ed the shop, from which it is alleged
the building took fire and together
with two boats, &C., was burned. Sol
liday & Co. made demand for the
amount insured, alleging that there
hat. been a loss to that amount, and
that the company refused TO pay on
the ground that thefire twas the re-
suit of criminal care .essness, and of the
presence of highly combustible mate
rials in situation Of great danger,
and not contemplated by the policy of
insurance covering the property des-
troyed."
After hearing the case, the arbitra-
tors adjourned, and rendered their
award the next day in favor Of the
plaintiffs, for $1,776.25. The case
was argued by Messrs Ross, Dubois
and Lear for plaintiffs, and e. j. Fox
and G. A. Skillman for defendants.

Hard Times.

Business viii no doubt be willing
to admit that there is much truth in
general complaint of the tightness Of
the es.-Yet it is nothing more
than one of the legitimate effects of
the war, and the consequent stagna-
ton in business. While it is true, it
cannot be denied that such a plentiful
harvest as has blessed our farmers, it
should not continue. The exporta-
ton of breadstuff should be unusually
large, while our imports do not reach
the old standard they must leave a
balance in our favor, The demand
for grain and provisions is steadily in
creasing, with an almost inexhausta-
BILE store to draw from. If our far
mers only put their money in circula-
ton, we cannot see why there should
be such general depression,
