IF WE KNEW.

If we knew the cares and crosses
Crowding round ur neghbor's way,
II we knew the little losses,
Sorely grievuus day Oy day.
Would we then 81 often chide him
For his lack Of thrift and gain
Leaving on his heart a shadow,
Leaving on cur life stain
Let US reach within our bosoms
For the key to oller lives,
And with love rwards errinR nature,
Cherish good that still survives;
So, that when 0ur disrebed spirits
Soar 10 realms Oi light again,
We may say, dear Father, judge us
As we Judge our fellow men.

THE wORK1NeMEEs SONG.

Who lacks for dread OF daily work,
And his appointed task doth shiik,
Commits folly and crime;
A soullcss slave,
A paliry Knave,
A clog upon the wheels Of Time;
With work 10 do, aud stores Of health,
Tue mans unworthy 10 be Tree,
Who will not give,
That he may live,
His daily toll for daily fee.
No dread Of toll have we or ours;
We know our worth, our weight, our powers
The more we work the more we win
Success TO Trade
Success to Spadei
And to the corn that's coming in;
Aud joy to him who, Ger his task,
Remembers toll is natures plan
Who working thinks,
And never sinks
Ills independence as a man. ~
Who only asks for humble wealth,
Enough for competence and health1
and leisure when his work is done,

Or stroll ut setting sun;
Who tolls, AS every man should toll,
For fair reward, erect and free;

Cpuntry New .papers.-The Cleveland
Herald, more magnanimous than some Of our
city cotemporaries, In speaking Of the Medina
Gazctie and Mt. vernon Bunn0 having been
swept away by the FIRE 6end makes the follow
ing very frank statement concerning county
papers, to which we would respectfully call tue
attention of those who are continually harping
about high subscription prices, the inferinry
Of country newspapers to city papers, and the
thousand -and-one excuses that penurious man
will give for not patrunizing his home paper.
Many of these same persons very probably pay
three times the price Of their county paper, du-
ring the year, for books Of fiction dime novels,
&c.-which, IL applied for frty-two numbers Of
the home paper and the binding of the same
into book form. who would not consider II Of
more value to bis library a few years hence
than twice the amount Of money expended for
fictitious works ? The Herald says;
The local weekly paper is an absolute neces
sity to the county and community where pub
lishcd. All the city papers printed cannot sup
ply the place of the homo phper. That should
be the first love of every intelligent man and
woman, for with the paper is tue locality iden-
tilted. The paper gives the county and town
where printed much ~ their Importance In the
world, aud il gives in detail, the local news
which cannot be gained from any other source
Every weeks issue Of the paper is 81 much local
history, aud the rise growth, and development
of the town anI county can be measured aud
recorded only bv the loeal newspaper that con-
stonily is gathering its items People do not
properly appreciate their home paper. They
measure the value Of paper too much by the
number of columns it contains. The home pa
per, at any prize, is the cheapest paper one can
take, for in it is found the Information 10 be OBJ
tanned from no other source.
Another thing should be taken into consider
alton. Every county has ono or more news
papers. Hence the sirculatioD Of each paper
must be limited. There is therefore the greater
need OF activity aud interest on the part Of the
people to give their home paper good, vigorous,
substantial support.

MEDICAL SOCIETY OF HARTFORD COUNTY,
Nh

A special meeting of this society was held
at Bel Air, on Tuesday, April 26th, 1870.
The death of DIR. John Sappington was
feelingly announced by the President, DR..
Silver, who made q minute and graphic pre-
sentation of the personal and professional
character of the deceased, and concluded by
offering the following resolutions:
"Whereas, since our last meeting, by the
dispensation of Providence, one of our oldest
members has been removed from our midst
by death, who had spent long life of useful
ness in the practice of medicine,
Be it resolved, that in his death the medi-
cal profession of this county has lost one of
its most active and Jealous members, whose
energy and experience in the practice of his
profession for forty years, had rendered him
an able and skilful physician.
Resolved, That in his death, the communi-
ty has lost diligent and faithful member of
our profession, who long had administered
to their pains and sufferings, and whose en-
tire life was devoted to his calling.
Resolved, That the above resolutions be en-
tered upon the journal of this society, and q
copy of the same be sent, with the sympathy
of its members, TO his bereaved family"
DR.. Thos Hopkins moved the adoption of
these resolutions and followed his proposal
by an eloquent and touching tribute to the
life, character, and professional career of his
justly eminent friend and brother. He bore
earnest testimony to the thoroughly honora-
BILE and manly character of Dr. Sappington ;
TO his eminent practical ability as a physi-
clan; to his steadfast zeal in professional
duty to his uprghtness, honor and gener-
osity as man. to the ardor Of his friend
ship, and to his profound sincerity as a
Christian. His many commanding qualities
had for years made his presence and his Ia
bors constant blessing throughoutthe wide
region in the midst of which he lived. DR..
Hopkins urged upon his professional broth.

THE NEWS.

The terrible calamity at Richmond, Va,
continues TO be subject of comment by the
newspaper press throughout the country.
Many additional names have been added to
the list of killed by those who were at first
reported as wounded and who have since
died A great deal of true, practical sympa-
thy has been manifested in the shape of aid
for the sufferers and their families through
out the entire country-Baltimore as is her
won't taking leading position in the great
charity.
A bill was reported in the United States
Senate last week, reducing internal taxa
ton in the aggregate $43,607,0O The in
come tax is put at 3 per cent, but, as the
Baltimore Sun remarks, it should be swept
away altogether, and the people will be salts
fled with nothing less.
Gov. English of Connecticut was inaugu-
rated last week, and in his message to the
Legislature, whilst recommending appro-
pirate legislation in view of the recent adop-
ton of the Fifteenth Amendment, denounces
that Amendment as the product of chicanery
and force. He knows of no way, however,
