Bethel.

Our village wears cheerful aspect
now. The Public Houses are all well
filed, and our streets present quite live
" appearance were it not for this, it
would be very dull, for business OF all
kinds except the farmersis at low ebb
They are very busy getting their hay crop
and good one it will be; full as good as
last year.
The high winds which we had last
week and the first of this, have injured
some OF the Hop fields considerably; the
quantity raised, will be small compared
with last year but for the growers sake,
we wish for better price.
A Bethel correspondent of the Demo
crat and Lewiston Journal, has given us
very elaborate description of the noun
tains in this vicinity but we are not all
supplied with good safe family horse,
with which to visit these parts, and so
take all he says for granted. .
There is no real news to be had this
week, so this is all that can be furnished
now. NEpos.
