For Me Register.

Friend little, I've read and admire your
song,
And hope don't think any so evil;
But old Mr.. Fox, down under the rocks
Is as mad IS the very old hornet.
The millers, as you and every one know
Are honorable men in their line
When they make such good -four as our
millers do,
And give YOU corn meal nice and fine.
They make every bold to take 3 good
toll,
Like all good millers you know,
But they'll give you your sack-to take
with you back,
If YOU give them your grinding to do
When you next make song for the
merchants along,
Don't leave them out in the cold,
Or else when you come with your grin
ding along,
They may take sack and all for their
toll

A LIGHT SESTESCE.-Noah Brummett
is Boonsboro pedagogue who hes
money loaned at interest, and although
as fond of reading the news as any
creature living he was never known to
spend five cents toward supporting the
press, until last week. The Odd Fellow
tells the following story of how this old
Waxford Squeers for years sponged his
reading off an enterprising newsdealer
of that place Mr. Welty This gen.
tleman put up with Brummett as long
as nature could stand it, then presented
him bill of So for ten months reading
at 80 cents per month. Of course Noah
was virtuously indignant at the outrage.
But he had to pay it, with ninety cents
added with cost, and was light SEN
tence for so mean and contemplate an
offence. We have a desire to see Noah
Brummett- Well bet he is a loud talk
er, a vehement exhorter, and earnest
politician and heavy dealer in morals.
Pass the old sponge around, and let US
look at him.

DOES FARMING PAY "A lawyer in
failing health, bought 1000 acres OF
land near st. Paul, Minnesota, at s12
per acre. He confined himself to the
raising of wheat, devoting LOO acres
to the cultivation of that staple. His
yield in 1867 was $1,000 bushels, gross
price S53,54O, profits sl4.5O0. In 1868
his Weld was $4,000 bushels, with net
profits S2O,40O Thus in two years his
net profits, over and above the interest
on the interest on the capital invested,
sufficed to meet all the expenses Of bull
ding, fencing and other improvements,
besides returning to him allhis purchase
money, while the market value of the
lands and improvements is to-day quite
three times their first cost.
