The vveather-The weather for the

The SVeatEer.-The weather for the
past week has been extremely warm, dry,
and even sultry. As consequence, our
farmers appear to wear down cast look, in
nsmnch as the growth of their crops of hay,
oats, etc, are considerably retarted by the
drouth which prevails. a refreshing shower
passed over this section on Sunday evening
last however, which had very good effect
for the time being, but the burning rays of
"Old Sol'' soon told sadly upon the soil.
and to-day, the crops are fairly scorching
LET us have rain.

z. u, Sheriff

The above, as viii be seen, is from the pen
of our highly intellectual, and intelligent, and
gifted friend, P. ~, the Sheriff. We find it in
the Editors Drawer of the june number of
Harpel's Monthly Magazine, and take this op-
portunity Of saying that We regret that the
Sheriff, (whom we suppose We may now call
our County's Poet,) did not give us the op-
portunity of printing it from the original copy
instead of sending it to Harper. We have a
professional pride in presenting to the outside
world, any of Monroe county's citizens who de-
sire to immortalize themselves and would have
taken especial delight in publishing this Poetic
jem and thus heralding to the world the fact,
that in this secluded spot" even in gallant
Chestnut hill, there has been born Poet-and
that he still lives-and that his is a mind not
fettered by the usual imformities ofgenius. He
is not blind, like Milton, nor cripple, like
Byron, nor tainted with melancholy, ike
Cowper, but one of your sound, healthy
'Poicks;" and, therefore bids fair to attain I'M
mortal renown, and name in history. Brete
Earte founded his Poetic reputation upon so
slender a foundation as "Ah Sin," and John
Hay, upon base equally weak and senseless
what, then, may we not look for in way of
laurels on the brow of Monroe's literary repu-
tation, should "P. NJ. Sheriff." as we hope he
will, make up his mind TO keep up perpetrat-
ing just such immense gems" as the one which
heads this article 1t has the ring of Mrs.
Hunters

The "Pain Killer" may justly be styled the
great medicine of the world, for there is no re-
gion of the globe into which it has not found
its way, and been largely used and highly
priced. Moreover, there is no claim to which
it has not proved to be well adapted for the
cure of a considerable variety of diseases it is
4 speedy and safe remedy for burns scalds, cuts,
bruises, wounds and various other injuries, as
well as for dysentery, diarrhea and bowel CON-
plants generally, it is admirably suited for
every race of men on the face ofthe globe.
1t is a very significant fact, that notwthstand-
ing the long period of years that the pain
Killer" has been before the world, it has never
lost one whit of its popularity, but, on the
contrary, the call for it has steadily increased
from its first discovery, and at no previous tim9
has the demand for it been so great, or the
quantity made been so large, as it is to-day.
Another significant fact is, that nowhere has
the Pain Killer ever been in higher repute, or
been more generally used by families and indi-
viduals, than it has been here at home, where
it was first discovered and introduced. That
the Pain Killer will continue to be, what we
have styled it the great medicine of the world,
there cannot be the shadow of doubt.-Pro-

be given it.
Some Of our citizens are discussing the pro-

which, with but usderate cost, it might soon be
adapted.
The Trustees have also recently secured an
additional four acres Of land for the cemetery

proximity with Front street In these opera
tons the Trustees have displayed personal sa-
