are no skinflints, but generous, noble-heart-
ed people, who delight in improvements, both
OF their farms and oil their public institu-
lions. They don't talk OF fagstones here !;
and they look with contempt upon the neglect

dollar, the inordinate striving for which has
blasted the fortune OF many man, left unde-
