''NLw YEARS" was 'variousiy celebrated
here. Some rambled through the fields, some
stored away turkeys and oysters among their
neighbors. The boys as usual kept up their
firing, but mostly about the suburbs. They
acted with more prudence than ON Christmas,
which stands greatly to their credit Some,
for few paltry ten-cent shinplasters, made
themselves (hic) happy on beer. One young
man said it was the apples he ate (hic) that
made him so sick. All in all, it was one Of
those long to be remembered as calling day.
The weather reminded us Of beautiful Nav.
Blue birds were singing, and bees were buzz
zing about, as though they had been awaken
ed by the voice of spring, and must need,
begin their summers labor.

There is no doubt of the fact
that the Republicans have to
face q disagreeable situation,
aud its principal ugly feature is
the fact the great States Of New
York, Indiana, New Jersey and
Connecticut have pronounced
against them, and Ohio and Wis
consin, even, almost followed
suit. There is where the bitter
ness comes in, and there is moth
ing to assuage it. Before the
election Republicans went
around Dragging that Tilden
would not get q single Northern
State, including his own. Their
calculations have signally failed
all around, and the sooner, like
good citizens, they own up to it,
the better for all parties and for
the country at large.

Our PARISH RoADs.-Winter
is upon Us, and our people have
done little or nothing to better
the condition Of our public roads.
This neglect will cause many q
hard struggle for poor beasts,
broken vehicles, and a waste Of
time and money in trudging
through the muddy roads this
winter and next spring, unless
the public, like snakes and
many animals, retire to winter
quarters and remain dormant
till late in the spring. How much
better it would be for all in a
neighborhood to unite in putting
the roads in good order and
keeping them sog In nearly
every neighborhood road there
are a few places nearly impassa-
BILE the whole winter, which, by
q little united work, could be
remedied entirely, so as to ben
eft all passers.
The bad roads make very
much against any neighborhood
when strangers go prospecting
for a place to settle; besides
making people unsocial, selfish
and Indifferent to good schools
and churches, without which
any community will always 60
down hill. 1t is to be hoped our
people will give more attention
to this matter in the future, for
surely good country roads are
greatly needed all over the par
ish.
