The Patten Tribune says that in Stacyyille plan
tation, few mornings ago, two little boys, eight
and five years old, sons of Mr.. James Dudley,
were sent of an errand to a neighbor's not far
away. As they did not return at the proper time,
inquiries were made, and it was found that they
had not been to the house at all. Search was
made, and tracks were found where they left the
road, but the snow crust so firm that soon they
could not be tracked at all. The primeval forest
being close by, in the afternoon the family and
some of the neighbors, (al that could obtain snow
shoes) at once started in search of them. little
before sunset their tracks found several miles
from home and going straight from home The
crust had thawed so that now and then they made
q track. At dark, those in pursuit gave up and
came back, saying they could not find the trail
after dark and it was no USE Fresh parties start
ed out with lanterns, and about midnight found
the little ones sound asleep under pile Of brush
and almost frozen. They built fire, warmed and
fed them and got them safe home about four
in the morning.

Work.
The County Commits sioncis of kcnnebcc county
having advertised to lei the labor Of the prisoners
in the Jail in this county, and receiving fayora-
BILE proposals, have concluded to commence opera
tons at the workshops on account of the county.
The commissioners, who now in session in this
city, have engaged Mr.. Frank Durham Of Nassal-
boro', practical manufacturer of mems boots,
who will to the city at once, and start up the
workshops for the county, providing tools, furni-
ture, and other appurtenances necessary for the
prosecution Of the work. Mr.. Durham will act as
overseer and master workman until the system is
fully inauguratod. a guard, and experienced
workmen will have to be employed, to teach the
prisoners and give them insight into the trade.
1t is designed to manufacture mems thick boots
and brogans, and to contract beforehand for the
work with responsible parties in Portland or Bos-
ton. All the prisoners will be set to work, and
this will doubtless be relief to them when COM
pared with their present idle, shiftless lives. There
seems to be public demand also, that these p1is-
oners should be set at work, and the experiment
of jail industry tried in this county. The rules and
regulations adopted by the recent State conven-
ton of county commissioners will be put into eff
feet. The rules are quite strict, but it has been
proved that thorough discipline is necessary to the
fullest success in carrying on these workshops.

Home T.ade.
As tie following from the Fairfield Chronicle
represents our views upon the subject treated of,
we transcribe it to our columns
We notice, not only in our own village, but a
general rule everywhere, too apparent, that a
large class Of people manifest strong desire to
patronZc every new man who enters village and
opens stock of goods for sale. People ill read
lily pass out their money to such temporary adj
ers, only, in a majority of cases, to be most hand
somely cheated They will buy domestic sheet
ngs because they offered at cost or fraction,
may be, less than cost, and then pay onc-fourh or
half more for another article than any trader
asks thus, in the end, giving without once sus-
pecting it, exhorbtant prices for all their goods.
This works not only loss to the purchaser, but a
great injustice is done to the long established vii
agc trader. BY such a course, his trade suffers a
considerable diminution and his profits cores
pondingly lessened.
The man who comes to say with us but few
weeks, brings with him either inferior grade of
goods which he offers at lower prices than his
neighbor asks for good article, or seeks to make
up for loss in class Of wares by correspond
ing increase in another, SO the latter operates to
naturalize the former
A temporary trader pays no taxes IN the town
where he offers his wares while the other keeps
on hand valuable stock which is assessed an
nuav and helps TO lessen the burden of the labor
ing men whom he seeks to benefit by his sales.
In the one case the trader distributes his earn
ings all at home, the other carries it all away
when he goes. In the one case people pay cash
to one aud get credit of the other, expecting at
the same time 10 get as good bargains ION time"
as for ready pay" We ask if it is right or reas
enable to expect such usage from any trader !:
Can village trader afford to keep on hand as
good stock for his patrons to select from as he
could under more favorable circumstances Ger
tainly not.
Volumes might be written on this very sabject
and not exhaust its vitality, for the very life OF
community depends on the degree of unity exist
ing among its inhabitants IT, then, you would
have your village prosperous one, by all means
turn a cold shoulder to all transient commers who
remain but day, so to speak. Patronlze your
home traders so far as you can, and never, except
for an exchange of commodities or for return pat
ronagc, buy out of town, what you can find at
home. BY such course you will claim and be
justly entitled to the friendship and esteem OF all
your business men, as well as their hearty coop
Grafton in all good works. You will, atesst, have
the consciousness of acting the golden rule.
