PoMFRET MANOR CEMETERY.--A few evenings
ago we visited, in company with a friend, Qhc
first time in number of years,) the grounds in-
tended for our new Cemetery. Naturally, n more
beautiful spot than that selected cannot be found
anywhere in the State; and if care be taken with
regard to regularity in laying out the lots, and If
trees and othcrappropriatc shrubbcry arc careful
ly and tastcluly set ont, the place will, in the
course of time, be us attractive to the living rs ii
will be bclitting resting place for the dead.
There is nothing SO inviting to the reflective per-
son as the solitude of the grave yard, and more
particularly so when it is surrounded by the bcau-
tics Of nature, (upon whichthc glory of God him
sclfis written, aud where are to be seen the many
tokens of affection that are generally bestowed
upon the dead by the sorrowing hearts of bcrcft
friends. This place can be made emincntly such,
not only in consequence of its location being
sufficiently distant from the hustle of the town,
but also, by reason of the beauty its contiguous
scenery. Surrounded by rolling fields, and hill
and dale, and our broad river being within
full view stretching to the north and south as
far as human vision can reach, the whole makes
up q scene ofcXqulsite loyleincss which is plctu-
rescue in the extreme, rendering the place one
of the most desirable for the purpose intended.
1t is but few years ago that this place was
covered with dense woods, commonly known as
the Cold Spring woods, deriving its name from Il
large spring of extremely cold water, which was
located somewhere about its centre below the
elevation on which the Cemetery exists. About
fifteen years ago ii was used by the Episcopalean
Sunday School rs its picnic grounds. Here, an
nually, within the depths of this beautiful forest,
tho Juveniles of that already old institution were
gathered together by kind teachers, (many OF
whom have long since passed into u better exist
oncc,) to DC rewarded for their attendance with q
day of rejoicing. That flock has grown up, and /,
scattered. The cares of life have long since besel
then and, alas, how many of them may fluid
their everlasting rest upon the spot which at onC
time was their place of Joyous resort. BeautIy
the place. Let 1t be made comfortable,

A WORD TO Our FRIENDs.-Smce we have
become sole owner of this establishment we have
labored under many disadvantages on account OF
not having the means to make such improve
ments as we desired. Depending solely upon
our earnings and to Kind friends, to whom we
feel grateful for their patronage, we have lqui-
dated debts contracted for the improvements
which VIC were compelled to make. We are
anxious to make further improvements, and
make this one of the most complete offices In the
country. For such project we must, however,
rely upon our friends throughout the county for
their liberal support. We ask the favor OF all
those who would like to see lis prosper, to exert
themselves in our behalf in securing subscribers
and Job work. In doing they will reap
benefit rs well rs ourselves. We therefore solicit
the patronage OF all who feel an interest In the
Republican cause, and desire readable family,
rs well as n local journal, at a lower rate than
any other published in the county. To accom-
plish such an end We propose to compensate all
for their labor. Believing that ''the laborer is
worthy of his hire" We make the following pro-
position TO all who will engage in canvassng for
us:
For every list of 100 subscribers ut Sh5O paid
in advance, we will give order of $40, payable
in goods, at any establishment that advertlscs III
