THE FARM Err.


OF all the stations here on earth,
The farmer ranks the first;
Though some may recken him debas'd,
For toiling in the dust
IT'S natures calling be pursucs,
As with sweaty brow
He turns the sod all upside down,
And guides the shining plow.
When spring, in all its merriment,
O'erspreads the fields with green,
and nought but notes of Joy are heard,
And nought but smiles are seen,
The farmer turns his tillage land;
And who so happy now,
As he while whistling to his team,
He guides the shining plow.
When autumn winds blow fierce around /;
Or storms of winter come,
Far from the city bustIiug sound
Is the farmers quiet home
When twilight comes he sis him down,
No care to vex him now
With conscience clear he sips his beer,
While rests the shining plow.
The strangers ever welcome there,
His friends are not few;
The wandercr his bounty shares
Finds food and shelter too
Plenty with peace e'er crowns his board
Content sits on his brow;
With modern lore his mind he stores,
When not at the shining plow.
He has no ship at sea to sink.
He thinks not of the gale;
He cares not what the parish think,
Nor if the merchants fail
The pedagogue may laugh at him,
He scorns the statesman proud;
He's independent with his team,
While he guides the shining plow.
Good rule and order he maintains
He lives in peace with all:
And to defend his country's right,
He's ready for the cal:
Now to live ever free from strife,
Is just the life for me;
And if marry in my life,
A farmers wife I'll be.

Ourselves.

1t is but seldom that VIC take occasion
to call the attention Of our readers TO our
personal affairs. There are times, how
ever, when it is almost obligatory upon
men TO make such statements. In PTS
perity, the promptings of manhood are
the expressions Of gratitude, In adversi-
ty, thirst for relief. "a either case, an
expression of condition is alike justifable,
and the withhsiding alike reprehensible.
Franknesss 10 either case, is doing as you
woul2be done by. Therefore, we say TO
our readers
Notwithstanding the gloom that over
shadows our land, and the consequent
slagnation of business activity, that tends
to enguph the industrious in failure and
want, we have been prospered beyond our
most reasonably sanguino expectation. 1t
has been our purpose to conduct the Ne'os
upon an economical basis, and do such
work MS II business community required Of
us, upon like footing. An apprcciativc
community have sustained us in this pur-
pose, aud we gratefully acknowledge their
material aid.
AT no time, since we commenced the
publication of this paper, have we rccev-
ed such large accessions to our subserip-
ton list rs within the last three months
excepting only the first three months,
when our then issue was being made up.
By reference to our advertising columns
it will be seen that our business, in that
department, is almost wholly Of local
nature, and, in that regard, is reflex of
the business Of our county and immedi-
ate locality. We have never made the
slightest effort to solicit such aid in sus-
tanning our journal from abroad-and for
this reason arc we III earnest IN the en-
preston of recognition of the patronage
of our citizens.
In The rapidly increasing circulation of
the Grand Haven NFws, both in our VII
lage anJ abroad, We calls SO frequently
made for job work from our press, and the
consequent pecuniary prosperity that SO
cheers and encourages us, we have an as
surance of confidence and support. We
promise for our future what YOU have
deemed to be our purpose in the past.
We thank you, patrons, for the past, and
shall thus continue our labor contentedly.
