Late Dairy Markets.
CHEESE.

At Utica five Thousand boxes were offer
ed for sale on Monday, but up to 8 O'Clock
o. m. not sale had been made. The hold
ers were willing to accept the offers OF
last week, but the buyers were not will
ing to pay them. The offers did not rise
above Is cents. Factorymen wanted
about Is 1-2, and resolved TO wait week.
At Little FalIs, on Monday, the offer
ing of farm dairy was light, and in quality
thin. The highest price paid was ID cents.
and only one lot at that. Sales we're made
for the most part at from 10 to IL cents.
Buyers found fault with the quality. The
shipment of farm dsiries was 632 boxes,
by rail, and 800 by canal. One of the re-
cent bankrupt firms doing business at
Little Falls, pay only eight cents on
dollar of Indebtedness. They opened
trade last spring with little over 500, 600.
Every lot of cheese they bought at Little
Falls was sold for less than they paid for
it. The loss on cheese was shown to be
over $4,000 during the season. The
trade in factory cheese was both slow and
small. Five thousand boxes were offered,
with no great desire to cell. Ssles ware
made at II. 10 1-2, IS, and Is IA cents.
A few may have reached higher frac-
ton.
At Fort Plain. the closing market day
for the season has been quite satisfactory
inaemuch as nearly all the cheese offered
have been disposed of, over three-fourths
of the sslesmen having previously con-
tracted ell the cheese remaining in their
factories There was not large quantity
for sale, the number of boxes being 1888
nearly all of which changed hands al
13 IA cents per pound.

The President OF the United States has
set apart this day as day of National

fest indics tions Of goodness that have
marked the progress of our country dur
ing the year now drawing to close. AL
50 in accordance with reyered and an
oient custom of the fathers, the Chief
Magistrate of tho Commonwealth haze
designated it as day of Public Thanks-
giving and Praise for the manifold uer-
cies that have been bestowed upon US as
a State. 1t is we'll for people to pause
amid the busy scenes and realities of
life to recount the goodness of God Ia b.
slowing upon us, IS individuals and
communities, so much Of prosperity and
happiness as has been sllotted to US
during the passing year, and thus renew
our obligations 10 God, to ourselves and
our country.
Let NJ, to-day. with thankful hearts,
render praise for the civil and religious
liberty which we enjoy, and for the meas
ure of health and prosperity with which
we have been blessed during the year,
while others have had their homes DESC
lated, hy the elements, and their house
bold Gods scattered amid the terrifying
scenes through which they have passed.
Let us be grateful that tho labors Of
husbandmen have been generously re-
wsrded, and that peace asd plenty are
within our borders.
The annual recurrence Of the Thanks
giving Festival brings to the people of
New England hsllowed aud precious
memories - thoughts OF other days
friends long since passed away - and
brings hef-re rs the pat more wildly
than any other reunion of the year.
AS fsmilies gather around the festive
board to. day. the presence of vacant
chairs will remind many of them Of the
ties OF Kindred and friendship that have
been severed. D-soiste and cherries will

over the spirit at such an hour, ,eGt we
should be led 10 forget the friendless and
the poor. the widow npd the orphan, as
they come to the frugal meal prepared
amid sadness and sorrow. Let us, then,

friend and stranger that Is within our
gates. gather around tho table spread With

pared by loving hands, remember those 10

THANK GIVIN G.
Home Again !

Yes, there it is, the old, old home,
The garden trim and neat,
The gambrel roof of ancient SHAPE
The ru tic wooden seat;
The very smoke. it ours aloft
As it was wont to do,
When years ago, with heavy heart.
babe my home sdieu.
The rustic stile on which lean,
The fields all round me sprs ad;
The silver stream in yonder glade,
The trees above my head;
The waving corn, like yellow god,
The hedges thick and green,
ALI tell me that I'm back again
In some familiar scene.
The little church whose old gray spiEe
Stands dark against the sky,
Now throws its shadow DER the grave
Where both my brothers lie;
Ana there's the tree loved to climb.
And swing among its boughs;
The tree where happy lovers came
To whisper lovers vows.
How many, many wesry years
Have passed since that glad time
With shrinking feet I've often had
The hi Is of life to climb;
Still climb, brave heart, and do not fail;
Half way, o, never stop,
For though tits gloomy in the vale,
There's sunlight at the top.
The evening sun Is setting red,
cannot see things clear;
trembling at nv heart tells me
must not linger here:
I'll pass the door, and lightly tap
Upon the window pane;
"Hi mother, father, quick! come here.
Your boy is home again.
"Thank God tits true, it is the lad ~
o, who can tell their joy;
With streaming eyes and grateful hearts
They welcome back their boy.
His manly beard and sailors dress
Delight their wondering eyes,
While listening to his marvellous tales
OF foreign lands and skies.
Far, far into that happy night
They sit around the fire;
The father CAGES On his SOD,
The son upon his sire;
Then with their hears all fu of Joy,
Forgot all rare and pain,
They give their thanks TO Him Nho's broue
Their wauderer home again.
