The Big Mortar.

This notable landmark OF Monroe,
preceded by Lignoski's Three Rene
dies and Lignosl>i himself, has taken
up a position, or soon will do so, at the
old drugstore corner, the same held by
AIcFec some thirty or more years ago.
Lgnoski has had the storc-room thor
ourhly ovcrhauled and finished OIL IN
a tasteful and convenient manner, and
nc is, therefore, SO happy Gas he never
vas,' and the Big Mortar looks down
(or will look down) upon drug store
of which it may be proud. Pretty
soon, it is expected by Mr.. L., a thor.
ough prescription druggist will DC
added to the Big Mortar's staff, VINO
will have especial charge OF prescrlp
tons and the compromising of tincture'
and other vile indictments needed by
suffering humanity. This accession VII
about fill the Big Mortar to overflow
ing with satisfaction, and the publ
may smilc upon it as frequently as the
like, for few Big Mortars will dcserV
the public's smiles and favors NOR
Justly.

BLACK EYES, BROWN AND BLUE.
DY W. Il.

I have three lovers, handsome lovers,
Black eyes, brown and blue,
Who como to see mo every day,
My little sclfto WOO.
Black eyes has graceful form,
And quito dainty i'll attire,
And scornful mouth and temper high,
And ewes too full of fire.
Brown Dyes is a lispinG lad,
Who lives on love and air.
And dotcs on Byron, Pope and Hood
But mover parts his hair.
Blue owes is Il stalwart youth,
With frank and open face,
So modest yet SO digniticd,
And ncvcr out of place
Black Dyes is rich young man,
With blue blood i'll his veins;
And SAYS "tho littlo brown-cycd lass
Has caught him with loves chains
Brown Dyes is "paintcr-poct,'
Who tolls mo eat Loves shrine
Ho laws his heart and brush and pen,
And would call thcm minc?'
Blue owes is Il farmer boy,
BY birth of low degree,
Who loves not wealth nor rich attire,
But loves his God and me.
And to whom think you gavc my hct
TO black eyes, brown or blue?
"To black Dyes ?' No! 40 Drown eyes
No! but
To blue cycs bold and true.

NAV Flower vs.. La Belle.

These two packets came up last week
almost neck-and-ncck from New Or
leans, having left that city at the same
hour; but the La Belle made our land
ing first by four or five minutes. Ihcy
struck tho bank vigorously, rung bell
or two, and then steamed away lor
Camden Tho May Flower was inc
first to reach Camden. Returning, they
came down together, passed Trenton
under full Roadway, and landed hero
nearly "out of breath" the May Flower
two or three minutes ahead. They
went back to Trenton; came back tt
Monroe, and then went down 1rlzzing
putting and padding like exaspcr'lte'
demons. There was no excitement
however, on either boat.

The River Front.

What is to become Of the property
on the river front, is a question lnVoiF-
ing several thousand dollars, and Is OF
serious import, considering tho alarm
ing cncroachmcnts of tho river upon
the bank. In some places the bank mas
fallen in this season, to tho cNtcnt Oh
ten and fifteen feet. In rear OF ltauNet'S
store. and in front of the old King lot,
the loss has been even greater. Inc
action of the waves and of tho rains IS
silently narrowing the distance between
Grand street and the rivers edge. NOT
a great many years ago, there was
livery stable, and a wide street ll'cr-
ycninc between the rear of CROSS stofe
Chc old Mansion Housc) and the river.
Back of Chambcrlain's stood grocery
with considerable vacant space between
it and the river. The river now runs
under the corner of Chamberlain's rear
room: Rauxct has drawn in his pig
pon twice, until it is now even with
the rear of his store; and nearly all inc
ground, fully twenty feet, which III
1867 Law between Kings store and the
river, has disappeared, and back OF the
Hcmpkin lot fully as much more ha
fallen in.
Thus, we see what 4 few years haV
accomplished by the gradual abrasion
of the river. How long before Crane
street will be melting away under tn

The duties of his vocation with such sue
cess, rs TO have won the appreciation of
all. We sincerely hope he will succeed
as well in the future rs in the past. There
is one thing we would recommend to the
friends OF the school, which is TO take
some measures to reduce the price of
board. The citizens demand such eXor-
bitant prices Tor board, $3.50 per week,
that unless this is remedied the school will
not prosper n it should, so long rs stu
dents can obtain board at other places
for less. At South Paris. rs IN other
places. board can be obtained ut $500
