They cost nothing bat the pro-
lection OF their existence in cifcum-

utilize food which is otherwise worthless

the wild things OF the forest and streams?
Those who resist such action would destroy
at all times and seasons by
wholesale. They would shoot a grouse
upon her nest of eggs, and kill fish filed
with spawn. They would use the trap and
net, and carry on war of denomination
without reason or conscience. TIE state

Another good Citizen Gone.

The last two issues of our paper
contained the announcement of the
death of two of our citizens, and
now we have to chronicle the death
OF Mr.. Peter Brown, which OCCUR
ed Thursday night last. The de-
ceased was among the few survivors,
of our oldest citizens, having resid-
ed here for more than q quarter of
a century. He had, in years past
filled positions of honor and trust.
1t he had faults, they were not
prompted by the heart and were
counter-balanced by acts of kind
ness and virtue that will cause us
to forget the one while we will long
cherish the recollection of the other.
He leaves wife and several chill
dren to mourn his loss. They have
the sympathies of our community.
Uncle Potter is no more. Peace TO
memory, and may his reward be
the reward of the righteous.
