DEAB JOuRNALs-The spirit OfcorrespOnd.
snce has seized me, and, since the dear avs
hundred friends have all been duly rsmem.
bsred BY as many flying missivss from my
pen, l can think Of no one better deserving
a line Of kindly appreciation and regard, lban
the weekly visitor who brings a each return
such welcome gift Of news sad gossip Shall
you be glad to hear from met Some scruples /
have had on that point confess, but srguiuz
from the Well-knOyn fact that true friend
ships are reciprocal, and concluding,
therefore, that because l am pleased with
your frequent communication, you cannot
be displeased with my single one, venture
to proceed
| wonder, dear JeURSAL, if yOu ever go %
weddings. Not long ago-WhsB this 'monih
of roses first greeted Us indsed-I had The
pleasure of being one Of many CUES At one,
and suFmising that from your numerous
duties you do not often end time 10 enjoy
such occasions by actual presence 1 win ssll
you sOmethtD8 ABOUT TINS one:
1t was happy affair, as all weddipRS
should, of course, be, and It amid the general
pleasure there was slight naiueline Of sd
ness, who can WOndsT7 The bride smiled
through a mist of tears; but was she nos
leaving the dear home circle Tor life all
'untried and newP Aud ifauy Of he guests
belonging to the genus homo, eyinesd de-
preston of spirits, did not We, their sisters,
cousins and sweethearts, whom they had gal
laltly escorted tbither, know that II vas
simply because they enVied The happy
bridegroom, and would fain have stood in
his wedding bOOts2 And was not this
enough 10 make our unhsppiness visibIsY
Do. not be discousOlate, gentlemen, We, the
lady guests aforesaid stand ready to console
you. And, girls, since such affairs are said
70 be contagious, and the sumpsuous rspasl
following the ceremony seemed in part 10
mitigate their grief let Us hope their mslan-
eholy viii speedily disappear. 'l''i.--' 9
Has it raiusd iu FcemOnt9 That question
is deemed quite superAuous here # onsis not
blind. Every thing has been sR9as but sn
efficient arrangement of -dls-dIaiHs and
bitches has carried of much Ofths surfses
water with which we have been delayed A
few weeks ago, however, our fields were
scarcely in 50 satisfactory a condition. The
splerdid wheat of this season waved 10
glistsniDg sea of water; and the corn, not
daring to trust its infancy 10 prscsrious
sea-faling life, staid in the ground instead.
NOE it Is coming on nicely Notwithstanding
cold nights and frequent rains.
Grumblsrs, 1 believe, arc endowed with
ubiquity. They visit The Woman's Rights
Convention in New York city, and they are
farmers here. Nothing but a look atths
loaded orchards can send the latter into tbsir
homes with pleasant Vissge. Dear grum-
blers, be not so uDthankful. The rrin has
done some good, as even you cannot fail to
acknowledge. Has it not furnished you
with an abundance Of pure fresh water, in
which to submsrgs and scrub your luckless
sheeP2 Some of you took a little too much
of the ardent, 10 be sure, in order, / sup
pose, to keep yourselves properly dry while
you washed your woody companions; but
there was plenty Of water to be had, and that
you choose to poison yourselves with q vile
compound, instead, proves chat you ought
TO be under the fratsTBal care Of The Good
TemPlars, lfa.
But with glad farewell to the grp@blers
and reluctant one to you, must write no
more this time, and hereafter only
