Letter from Waits River.
April 4, 1856

The following letter was received too late
for publication in our last issue:
MIR. EDITOR Apologies for not writing
sooner are unnecessary are none to be
made, for when nothing transpires, of course,
there Is nothing to write about. 4 cold dull
spring is making farmers look sober. Ma.
pie trees look downcast. | noticed load of
sap tubs in the street this morning, and they
looked lank and thirsty surely. The colo
biting wind seemed to tell them they could
not be sweetened at present. Sap pans
hang down their ears ana wonder if there
will not be sugaring when the war ends.
we have little war news at present except
what the Boston Journal, your good paper
&c. bring US, and occasionally a stray
Argus, pale, haggard and lame; laboring
hard under its heavy, black burden, wends
Its way to the post office box, and fanls
away on reaching it. Secesh sentiments
seem calm, and Union soldiers and citizens
are not molested, but of course if the news
OF rebel victory should reach US, we should
hear the frogs croaking nicely then. Rus
sell Weber, who enlisted at this place in
70 ID of the 10Th last September, is at home
now tor short time, suffering severely I'M
der an attack Of rheumatism, brought on BY
cold and exposure in Virginia. The other
I" soldier boys as they are called, that went
from this place, write cheerful and interest
ing letters to their friends. Some speak al
ready of re-enlisting at the expiration of the
nine months service. They do not seem to
repent of their glorious observation-disclosures
serve their country. The capture Of Gen
Stoughton seems to please them vastly. One
soldier in letter to friend last week.
writes: "The rebels are not acting very
pretty, they have stolen our General from us.
but he was mean scoundrel AID we could
not be sorry" The Generals position, GER
tainly cannot be an enviable one. At the
close of the winter term of school, taught BY
Miss Emily Divol of East Topsham, the
school met at Hatch's He'll on the even
ing of March 18th, for social exhibition
which passed off quite we'll although severa
of the more advanced pupils have enlisted
since the previous term. With music, reel
tations, coloquies, tableaux, &C., the time
slipped pleasantly away, until II O'Clock
when the kind and attentive audience quiet
ly separated to their several homes. Nor
