cuse salt for every / 900 lbs. OF milk con.

salt was used, but it was found by expe.
riment, not only at this factory but in
others, that the difference between the
best Ashton and the best Syracuse salt
exists mainly in the Imagination. Thus

this again, is matter with which the
season has much to do. The product Of

though 5000 lbs. were recently shipped
to New York.
In view of what has always seemed to

by which all the milk should stand until

and after removing the cream TO be
transformed into butter, that the milk
should be made into cheese and sent to

Over the Way.

Over the way, with It's fancy face,
Stands an old grog shop, a wretched place
Where the thovgbtless boy, yet In his teens,
Gainst the bar for his frat glass leaDs
No power stays the merciless hand,
That starts the child Ia the great, broad land,
With the mark Of SIN on the tender heart,
To play In his life It's own dark part.
Over the way stop women and men,
10 drain the cup again and again,
That sloyes them on In one mighty wave,
TO halt at last at the drunkards grave,
Where their drinksstained souls shall grope
around
In search of peace, on earth ne'er found.
Cursed is the hand that deals tn the old,
Cursed hand that steals the young from the
fold.
Over the way, all hours Of the week,
The opening doors on their hinges creak
And the old place rings with quarrel and song,
And clink of glasses from tue molly throng
So constant the sound, the deaf old wells
Have learned TO answer the drunkard's calls
And their very hearts are stceprd, ! ween,
In the low-lived plays there daily seen.
Over the way, in costly array,
Wovn from fibres of hearts pined away,
Dram seller and wife now take their ease
On orphans portions, their hourly fees
Their own little boy, with eyes like the night,
And curly haired daughter, merry sprite,
Are spending their time In childish Joy,
While others should have their ev'ry toy.
Over the way must come sorrow and pain,
For cause and effect are linked in one chain
And he who dares, for his own selfish ease,
To violate one Of natures DEGREES,
Must answer the charge, in its ev'ry jot,
To Judge that never by gold was bought
Then let the rum seller rest while he may
For God, at the last, will have his full pay

AsHrABuLA. Aug. 18th.
"Ciicnmstances imprlhng us to "Iake
no noie of time siuce our arrival in this
quiet aud no altogether unatiractive
town, We have had ample leisure to look
thr country over in as careful manner
as we could desire. The town of Asbla-
bula is located some three miles away
from the lake, and II pr tty long mile iu-
tprvencs between it aud the railway
station, which is passed in going to the
harbur. There is always Il sort of brisk
and lively seli-importance put on "fur a
short time only" by elderly gentlemen
who venture upon taking for IA second
lime blooming and vigorous damsel Of
less than half their age, which is alike
amusing and ridiculous to those who
"know how it is themselves" and TO this
alone can compare the effect of new and
gigantic enterprises like the building of
important manufactures or long lines of
railway to ruu into town like this,
which, without some kind of snimulant,
might be considered AS having fully
reached it's eliminating point. Here,
under the vigorous impulse and energetic
direction OF Messrs. Mckenzie & Robert
son, - railway began several years ago
abandoned after having been nearly all
brought to grade, aiming to reach other
lines at Youngstown, is being put in
order fr the cars, and another from
here to Youngstown. The Youngstown
line is expected TO be completed before
the end OF the year, and the other as
soon as possible thereafter. From these
two thoroughfarcs the people here are
anticipating wonderful improvements in
their town, all OF which we hope will be
realized, though for the life of us we
cannot conceive what great advantage it
will be to them to zee people pass
thorough the town. The early tutor OF
Hon. Henry Wilson was shrewd New
Hampshire lawyer. Having farm to
sell he sent long advertisement to the
country papers, giving very minute
description Of the property, but adding

Rat it is quite evident that the people
here are in earnest. They all think, OF
act like they did, that very great results
are TO follow the completion of these
railways. Land is rising all around the
town, and there are those who believe
that the entire line from the town to the
harbor will shortly be lined with stores
and dwellings, and prices rise In antioi

Woman's Love.


An infant when iegaEcs on a light
A child the moment when it drains the
breast,
A devO,re who scars the host in sight,
An Arab with stranger for guest,
A sailor when the prize has struck in fight
A miser filling his most boarded chest,
Feel rapture but not such true joy are reap
ing
AS they who watch DER what they love while
sleeping.
For there II lies so tranquil, so beloved,
All that it has of life with us is living;
SO gently, stirlcss, hopeless and unmoved,
And all unconscious of the joy It's giving;
All IL hath felt, inflicted passed and proved
flushed into depths beyond the watchers
diving;
There lies the thing we love with all its errors
And all its charms, like death with all its ter
The lady watched her lover-and that hour
OF loves and nights and oceans solitude,
Oerfluwed her soul with their united power ;
Amidst the barren sand and rocks so rude
She and her wavc-woru love had made their
bower,
Where nought upon their passion could in-
trude,
Saw nothing happier than her glowing face.
Alas ! the love of woman F.! II is known
To be lovely a d fearful thing;
For all of theirs upon that die is thrown,
And il its iOst life hath no more TO bring
To ihrm hul mockeries of the past alone,
And their revenge is as the tigers spring.
Deadly, and quick, and crushing; yet as real
