The time when the British workman
would demand to be fed on turtle soup,
administered with a golden spoon, APP
pears 10 be near of accomplishment in
New Zealand. The laboring classes in
that remote but hourishing dependency
have been, for some time past, in the
custom Of riding TO their daily work in
carriages. The practice is said to pre-.
vail in the provinces Of Auckland and
Canterbury, and a party Of men en-
ployed in making hay into bales
throughout the Tamaki district, habitu-
ally revel in the luxury Of being con-
veyed to business in trap with cush-
Toned seats. These hay-balers are said
to earn seven and sixpence a day, but
they are now demanding ten shillings,
as they cannot keep up horse and
buggy upon less.

Young trees are uninjured. We

Smith, Harden, Updegraff and

bought a No, Browns corn planter.
They propose to let it out for twelve
and half cents per acre to their
brother farmers. Reasonable!
Daniel Bitter was down after his
cattle on Saturday last. Updegrafl
and Mahaffey have wintered 20 head
for him and have done 4 good Job
Bitter has fed almost all the surplus
corn on the creek. We like to see him
come around to No. Is.

THE MIsTLETOE BOUGH.

The mistletoe bough hung in the castle
The holly branch shone on the old oak
wall;
And the baron's retainers were blithe
and gay,
Keeping their Christmas holiday;
The baron beheld with a fathers pride,
His beautiful child, young .Lovelrs
bride;
While she with her bright eyes. SEEM
ed to be
The star of the goodly company.
Oh! the mistletoe bough! Oh! the
mistletoe Tough!
"I'm weary of dancing now" she
cried;
"Here tarry a mOment-Ill hide, I'll
And Lowell, be sure thon'rt the first to
trace
The clue to my secret lurking place"
Away she ran and her friends begin
Each tower TO search, and each nook
to scan;
And young Lowell cried, "Oh where
dost thou hide?
I'm lonesome without thee, my own
dear BRIDE"
Oh! the nIistletoe bough! oh. the
mistletoe bough!
They sought her that night! and they
sought her next day!
And they sought her in vain, when
week pass'd away!
In the highest, the lowest, the lone
Hest spot,
Young Lowell sought wildly, but found
her not,
And years fiew by, and their grief at
last
Was told as sorrowful tale long past:
And when LoYeli appear'd, the chill
dren cried,
"See! the old man weeps for his fairy
BRIDE"
Oh! the mistletoe Dough. Oh. the
mistletoe Dough!
At length an oak chest, that had long
lain hid,
Was found in the castle--thcy raised
the lid
And n skeleton form lay mould'ring
there,
In the brida! wreath OF the lady fair.
Oh sad was her fate. in sportive Jest
She hid from her lord in the old oak
chest,
1t clos'd with spring and her
bridal bloom
Lay whitening there in living tomb.
Oh: the mistletoe bough, Oh. the
mistletoe bOugh.
The above are the words OF this

AGNES CITY.


Persuant to notice there was re-
spectacle number of our citizens met
at 33d district school house, on the Sd
Inst :, to discuss the matter of the
Trust Claim interest. Addresses were
delivered by 81r. Humes, Governor
Slower, Gov. Sharp, Mr.. C. Columbia,
z. Mcmillan and others. All unaHi-
mously agreed that the recent APP
praisement of the above mentioned
lands was unjust and altogether too
high.
\ vote was taken to see how many
were satisfied with the appraisement
of their claims. There was only four
in the affirmative. Then n vote was
taken to see how many were of the
opinion that the apprdisement, upon
the whole, was unjust, and the re-
suit was unanimous in the Affirmative.
\ committee of five was appointed
on address, with Duncan Mcdonald,
OF Council Grove, as chairman, to draw
up an address or petition setting forth
our grievances, to be presented to the
Secretary of the Interior, and our del
egation in Congress.
There was also n resolution passed
requesting each school district t. APP
point three committeeman to look mp
cases in the locality and forward to
Duncan F. Mcdonald to enable the
committee on address to make the case
from.

lief OF all present that the foregoing
plan, if carried out, viii be conducive
of great good to the aforesaid settlers.

on this subject.
