MAINE PRAIRIE.
The Small Pox-New Storo-0MarGa-
ret Merlyn' and tsIon.''
MA1NE PRAIRIE, Dec. goth. 1868.

MAINE PRA1RI1, Dec. 29th, 1865.
EDITOR JouRNAL.-1t appears that 'L.
p" our scandal reporter, has neglected to
post you for some time in regard to times
on Maine Prairie. have therefore conclu-
ded to send you in few items. The small
pox has visited our little prairie in its
most malignant form. Four families ore
suffering from it at present, and there is
probability Of its spreading still further.
The people are badly frightened, and not
without cause. Most of tho schools are
dismissed, and religious services are not
attended, and should be prohibited. 1t
might have been checked at its first ap-
pearance, had not the physician in attend
ancs pronounced it eruption fever, instead
Of small pox hence those affected were
not sufficiently careful Of exposing others.
We have new grocery store on the
Prairie, Mr.. Stanley being the proprietor.
Mr.. Putnam has built store room Of his
own, at Farwells Lake, where he has re-
moved his fine stock Of goods, and now Of
fers them Tor sale at "greatly reduced
prices"
l have been reading the story of "Mar-
garet Merlyn" with considerable interest.
I was greatly amused at ssIon's" criticism,
which I think is rather premature. 1.-The
by reading the first two issues of a story,
to be continued throughout the yenr, can
pronounce with confidence on the differ ent
characters and their relation to the story,
he is blessed with a greater degree of PEN
etration than most people lay claim to.
But further, our worthy editor has inform
ed US that this is story Of real life, and
that the characters are real. This being
the case, it would be ungenerous not to in
troduce JEANNE to the public; and if an
introduction was necessary, it would GER
tainly be both unwise and unnatural to
bring her in Is philosopher or as talk
ing anything but baby prattle, which can
only be o8ensive to rusty old bachelors,
tho husbands Of strong-minded women, or
people crusted down in sel6shness. Az
for ourself We believe in babies, and never
snarl at ones being shown to US either in
q story or in private life. But We suppose
JEANNE was introduced Cor further useful
ness, and not for the annoyance Of '.Ion,"
and that she will have ample time to learn
to talk, and perhaps love and marry one of
| those bearded creatures whom her older
sister was afraid Of on account Of the DOW
or he welded according to law. Who
knows! As for myself, if Mrs. swisshelm
doesn't give too much aid and comfort to
strong-minded women, such as ''Bitter
Sweet" and other sweet creatures (of one
Of whom am the lucky possessor,) I shall
be immensely satisfied with tho story
But to have Angelina Matilda imbibe such
views as would cause her to Develop that
natural talent for oratory which she pos
sesses, by delivering home lectures, would
be unpleasant. Trusting all will be well,
however, will look for TIE JOURNAL with
pleasure.
