,
For ScANDALMoNGERs.- story is
told of woman who freely used her
tongue to the scandal of others, and
made confession to the priest of what
she had done. He gave her thistle
top and told her to go out in various
directions to scatter the seeds one by
one. Wondering at the penance, she
obeyed and then turned and told her
confessor. To her amazement, she had
to go back and gather the scattered
seeds; and when she objected that it
would be impossible he replied that it
would be still more difficult to gather
up and destroy all evil reports which
she had circulated about others. Any
thoughtiess, careless child can scatter a
handful of thistle-seeds before the wind
in moment, but the strongest and
wisest man cannot gather them again.
IMPORTANCE OF LOCAL PAPERs.-We
find the following in an exchange, and
as tits so near what we would like to
say, we transfer it bodily:
The county paper is the best read
sheet in the world. No other contains
the locals, marriages and deaths; no
other relates the accidents happening
before the doors; no other gives the
time for the next lecture or political
meeting; no other gives the proceedings
of the local Courts; no other discusses
the affairs of the town and county, or
announces the arrival of new goods on
the merchants counters. Without
county paper, the town that has ever
enjoyed a well managed one feels lost
indeed. The well edited county paper
is the most welcome visitor at the fire.
side of the farmer, and is, in the same
proportion, the best medium of general
In connection with the
above, we would add that if a place
were deprived Of its local papers, what
a vacuum would there be in that COM
mHnity. 1t would be like a ship with
out a compass, boat without rudder.
No place appreciates the value and de-
of a LEGAL paper as the town
without one. Let every town and vii
lage then, that is so fortunate as to pos
sess enc or more, take pride in giving
them a generous andiunited support.

About ten days or two weeks ago a queer
affair occurred. While Mr. Matthew Clarke
aud son were saving in the woods near the
haunted ground, parsonage without hat aud

The son called attention TO him. Mr.. Clarke
