Sunday. OF course if was exhibited

Sunday. OF course it was exhibited
at noon, on the benches of the old
school house, or out under the shade
of tree, where the family gathers
around it. 1t thus recalls to us, not
only itself, but the memory of those
times, their rustic habits and their
home comforts and virtues. And let
no one smile scornfully at them. They
produced men and women of great
worth, Of great and good infuen ces
to the world and the church. Our
manners are different, but our virtues,
are they as pure, as noble? Are our
lives as useful? We should like to
believe that Morgan has now a man
of as pure faith and life and influences
as was Father Wilcox in his dav. or
a man of as dignifed, intelligent christ
ian manhood as Dea. lothian Cum
mings. We wish we could induce
Rev. Jacob S. Clark to give US a
worthy notice of his character and
usefulness. Mr.. Clark was nearest
neighbor to Dea. Cummings during
the latter part of his life, and as pas
tor learned to love and honor him we
are sure. He can DO such work
better, more appreciatingly, than any
other man. And it must be to him a
labor Of love.

this State are being starved out prett,

on the ground Of inadequate support
He has a family of five, and a salary
OF only $500. Rev. A. A. Barker. Of
Cornwall, was dismissed two or three
weeks ago. He had a comfortable
salary before the war, but the advanc-
ed prices of everything, made his sala-
ry insufficient. His parishioners grew
rich, while he grew poor. Their
grand list doubled in five years, but
they did not double his salary. nor
even increase it. Now they have
starved him out, they cannot get
man equal to him, without paying two
Or three hundred dollars more salary.

leans County, who are undergoing the

\ WooD SUU.-There was an in

ford, drew a quantity Of wood to one
Cokcley of this place, Tor which he
was to pay s. per cord. Two dit
terent wood surveyors were brourbt
on to measure the wood. and both
made 1t about two cords less than the
seller did. Mr.. Hale claimed nav for
the amount according to his measure
while Cokeley rendered pay for only
the surveyed amount. Meantime
Cokeley had used | IL cords of the
wood, but Hale claimed he had used
IA cords, and took the residue of
the wood from Cokeley's door,
Cokeley then brought an action of
trespass against Hale for taking
the wood away, and made his writ re,
turnable before Justice Howard at the.
office of ". A. Pierce, Esq. Hale
then brought his action for the wood
which Cokeley had used, made return
able at the village two days before
Cokeley $ action was made retnrnable
here. Whereupon Cokeley yielded to
Hale's demands, and rendered him s.
per cord for the wood he had USED. ac-
