The citizens of this town have been heavily burdened by taxation during the last ten years. Heavy. responsibilities have rested upon them, arising from the expenses of the war of the rebellion, and
 for expenses of judgments to the amount of nearly twelve thousand dollars in favor of drafted men, for bounties offered by the town. Many of the citizens of the town favored the plan of making loans for the payment of these sums.i thus leaving the debt to be paid, in part, at least, by coming generations; but the majority d. ways insisted on removing the burden at
 once, and on laying taxes sufficient to meet the emergency. The result has been that now, all demands against the town have been cancelled and there is asurplus of several thousand dollars In the treasury.
 | The same spirit of promptness has gov erned the action of the Congregational parish during the past year. At tie an- nual meeting of the society in sNoyanber, 1870, the committee reported the debts. of the society for the arrears due for the new parsonage, and incidental expenses, to amount tomore than two thousand dollars.
 Efficient members of the parish at once took the matter in hand, and at the meet ing this year the report of the committee showed that there were means on hand to wipe out the whole debt of the socitty and to leave small balance in the treasury.
