Kitty Rider.

Kneellng by the stream saw
Kate, the farmer daughter,
Drinking, in her rosy palm
Dipping up the water.
She had thrown her hat aside,
Bare her arms and shoulders
Each unconscious charm displayed
Made my love the holder.
So I slowly, tenderly,
Went and knelt beside her,
Drank with her from out the stream
Blushing Kitty Rider!
And ! said, "The poets think
Life is ike a river"
Shall we not its waters drink
Always, love, togetherY
Many years have passed US BY
Like the flowing water,
But drink LIES stream to-day,
With the farmers daughter.

The old Family Grocery

The Old Family Grocery.
TTNHE undersigned is pleased to inform his old
friends and the citizens of the county generally,
that he has again re-opened, with
Nerc Stock and Full Supply, his Grocery Store,
At the old stand of II. L. Ely & Son, Charlestown.
To particnlarze the numerous articles in store for
the necessities and general convenience of families,
is unnecessary every article in his line that is
needed will either be found on hand or obtained at
the earliest day. The motto in trade now being
"auick sales and short profits" il is his intention
to sell all articles cheap they can be procured
elsewhere. He therefore appeals with confidence
to old customers and the public generally for rea-
sonable share of their support.
