fifth Of the number expected were here,
and assuredly these few were not the
smallest fraction Of the many thriving
wool growers all over our county. Per.
haps the hurrying "seed time" which
now engrosses the attention Of our farmers

FRIEND SAWYER :-Ye yesterday was truly
a Sabbath to any mans soul who lived at
Lake Mills aud would allow the sunlight
Of Gods providence to shine into their
souls and renew them with q quicker and
liyelier sense Of the relations Of man to
bis maker. But, Mr.. Editor, do not
propose to sermonize.
The Spring has been rather backward
through the month Of April. Most Of
the wheat was sownin March. They are
now engaged in uncovering the grape
vines which have lain all winter and un-
til now under covering Of marsh hay,
10 protect them from the cold. There
are some damaged ones Oh account Of the
peculiar severity Of last winter.
But. Mr. Editor, my thoughts are
strayipg back to my native state and the
Lamoille valley. BY the way, have
heard one of the strangest pieces OF news
from private sources that Cambria e
had rejected the Euabliug Act! Allow

seven years ago, it was supposed they were
an entirely new thing, and had never before
