STEALING RIDEs.-EVery spring large
numbers of boatmen make their way to
Whitehall about the time for the open
ing of the canals, for the purpose of Sc
curing work. They generally are desti-
tute of money, and resort to all sorts of
expeGients for the purpose of stealing a
ride on the Rensselaer, and Saratoga
railroad. A few days since one of these
men was found in freight car at Fort
Edward, and was put off the train. Be-
fore it started up again he crawled down
under the cars and secured position on
the truck so that his body rested across
one of the shafts of the wheel. In this
position he rode to Whitehall, where he
was discovered and taken out quite the
worse for wear The shaft had worn
through his coat, vest and shirt, and was
lust making an inroad into the walls
covering the mans stomach. The for
tunate stoppage of the train saved the
poor fellows life. Some time since one
| of the same class of men, having been
repeatedly put off the train, stole his
way to the front of the engine and rode
upon the cowcatcher. His cap blew off,
and the velocity of the train caused his
hair to stand on end, etc. Just then it
began to rain and freeze, and when the
fellow got off at Whitehall his head
presented the appearance of mass OF
icicles growing out of his scalp, All
who saw him laughed at his odd appear,
ance, though he himself was half per
ished with cold.

- Jones'. -


THE following little story, with its moral,
though written for the Macon tGa.l T'ele-
graph, is quite too good to be enjoyed by
the farmers of the South alone J
| knew man and he lived in Jones
Which Jones is county of red hills and
stones,
And he lived pretty much by getting of
loans,
And his mules were nothing but skin and
bones.
And his hogs were as fiat as his corn-pones,
And he had bout a thousand acres OF
land.
The man-and his name was also Jones'
He swore that he'd leave them old red hills
For he couldn't make nothin' but yellow
ism cotton,
And little of that, ana his fences were rot
And what little corn he had, that was
boughten,
And he couldn't get living from the
land.
And the longer he swore the madder he
got,
And he rose and he walked to the stable
lot,
And he hallooed to Tom to come there
For to emigrate somewhere where land
was rich,
And to quit raising coclS-bu1s, thistles
and sich,
And wasting their time on barren land.
SO him and Tom they hitched up the mules,
Protesting that folks were mighty big
That 'ud stay in Georgia their. lifetime ont,
just scratching living, when all of them
mought

BY the time you could plant it in the
land.
And lie drove by house where a man
named Brown
Was living, not far from the edge of the
town,
And he bantered Brown for to buy his
place,
And said that seeing as money was skase,
And seeing as sheTiffs were hard to face,
Two dollars an acre would get the land.
They closed at a dollar and fifty cents,
And Jones he bought him a wagon and
tents,
And loaded his corn, and his women, and
truck,
And moved to Texas, which it took
His entire pile, with the hest of luck,
To get there and get him little land.
And Brown moved ont on the old Jones
farm,
And he rolled mp his breeches aud barred
his arm,
And he picked all the rocks from off'n the
ground,
And he rooted it up and plouahed it down,
And sowed his corn and wheat in the
land.
Five years glid by, and Brown, one day.

Was sitting down, sorter lazily
To the grandest dinner YOU ever did see,
When one of the children jumped on his
knee
And says, .'Yan's Jones, which you

And there was Jones, standing out at the
fence.
And he hadn't no wagon, nor mules, nor

For he had left Texas afoot and come
To Georgia to see if he couldn't get some

actually such. The people are some
times carried away by such watchwords
and cries, and, in effect, produce the
very opposite result from that which
they intend. AS we have said before, the
affairs of this village might be economic
ally administered. Every year there is
call for 'retrenchment and reform" and
new boards of officers-either in whole
or in part-are elected Still the same
complaint is made, and the same cry re-
iterated. We think we may say, with
out otfense to any one, that the result of
our village meeting, Wednesday, was
simply retrenchment and reform run
mad Reform and economy certainly
do not consist in, at all times and under
all circumstances, voting against high
percentage of taxation and voting for
a lower rate The report of our Audi
tor shows that there are, at the present
time, outstanding and unpaid, village
orders for over twenty thousand dollars.
There viii also be due, during the pres
ent year, five thousand dollars of what
are known as reservoir bonds" The
tax voted was fifty cents on dollar,
which will net somewhere. probably,
between eight and ten thousand dollars.
The trustees were instructed to incur no
new liabilities, and it was decided "that
all money raised by taxation be paid into
the treasury, and applied to the extin-
guishment of the debt of the village"
Notwithstanding this vote, the village
elected Board of Trustees. What, in
the name of common sense, is the use of
having any trustees There are, to be
sure, certain duties for them to perform,
but the voters, in effect, instruct them to
do nothing. The current expenses of
the village are estimated at some five
thousand dollars, and yet not dollar is
raised to meet it, and the trustees are
not allowed to issue an order in payment
thereof. Are we prepared to give up
our Fire Department, lighted streets,
watChman, etc, etc. This is the way
the matter now stands, no money to pay
current expenses and not half enough to
pay our debts 1t was truly an exhi-
bition of retrenchment and reform run
mad

Horse Notes.

We learn that Mr.. A.. I'll. Danforth,
the popular horse trainer and driver, has
assumed charge of the Rutland trotting
park. AT present the track is not in
very good condition for speeding horses,
but Mr.. Danforth will at once COM
mence the work of preparing the track
for the coming races, which will take
take place about the middle of June.
MIR. Danforth has at present under
his care some of the finest trotting hOr-
ses in New England, among which is
young mare owned by Mr.. George Ham
mond of Middlebury, which is in train
ing for the four year old purses to be
trotted for at Buffalo in August.
Much regret is felt among horsemen
in Rutland and vicinity at the loss of the
well-known trotting horse Waiting
Dan, who was burned to death by the
late disastrous fire at Granville, n. Y.
Tam O'Shanter is in excellent spirits
A. HI. Danforth ''holds the ribbons" over
Tam the coming season.
Mr.. John j. Myers, just returned
from Florida, brought with him thor
ough-bred mare from Kentucky. She
is fine looking animal,
The Turt, Field and Farm says
that Mr.. John Porter, of Tioonderoga,
has very promising colt. We hope to
see her here soon
Frank Richardson drove his four
year old mare ON the park yesterday.
She showed some fine stepping for a
green horse
