The Skowhegan correspondent of the Lew
iston journal writes few week ago il was
voted to exempt Coburn Hall and Brewster
Hotel In Skowhegan from taxation, at cor
! poration meeting then held. Last Saturday
afternoon the corporation at another meeting
voted to reconsider that vote-i. e. to tax
Coburn Hall, and the Brewster House. Much
feeling was evinced pro and con, and there
considerable discussion of the policy of
such measure. 1t is generally understood
that the town, at the time building was talked
OF, voted to exempt them both from all town
tax The point that the petitioners for taxa
ton bring forth is this: That the corporation
is separate and distinct body from the town,
and therefore this tax should not be rescinded.
The party who favor non-taxation argue that
the corporation is part of the town, and that
by taxing the two buildings the town is re-
pudiating itself.
Persons who have but little land may not
despair. They can at least raise their own
eucumbers if these directions from the Argus
are followed: Take barrel, fill it half fall
stones, bones, &c., and then fill it with rich
dnt, within three inches of the top. Let
water run into it until the stones, &C.,
are covered wife water, which BY capillary
attraction will ffnd its way up through the
earth and keep it moist. As the water ct the
bottom wastes away, let more run In. Plant
your cucumbers when the weather Ia warm
enough, and they will grow most luxuriantly.
Place some sticks, &C., about the barrelfor
the vines to run upon, and you win hayeca-
cumbers enough for your family. IfproPsr
ly cared for, you can pick from these vines
cucumbers enough to make q barrel Of pick

received IN December last from Chicago, as q
recognition OF an act OF almost daily duty,
an act Tor which he neither desired nor deserved

desired might be expended for the benent OF this
