TOWN ITEMS.

ANDovER, May S0.-The cold weather
and frequent showers during the past two
weeks. have improved the looks OF grass
very much, and there is every indication
now that the hay crop will be good.
Grass winter killed very little on some
farms. Wheat and oats are looking finely.
A comparatively small amount OF land has
been planted 10 potatoes, many farmers
| have become convinced that they can
mako it pay better to raise less potatoes
and more corn and wheat.
By careful estimation find that about
- 600 worth OF corn was brought into
this town and sold during the year 1876
aud two thousand barrels OF flour which
all had to be paid for in money. No
wonder the farmers are complaining oil
hard times, scarcity OF gree nbacks. One
Greenbscker 10 this town has found out
where the blame lies. lie told me lew
days since tha. it was the laziness OF the
people and their extravagance,tb that made
them howl so about the hard times and
the rag baby. The Greenbackers claim
that they can poll 40 votes here in Sep
TENDER. find that the.msjority OF those
who have become members of this party
are men who have aspired TO office, and
having failed. now offer themselves as
victims upon the Greenbaok altar.
Mr.. II. ID. Purinton has got his new
house nearly completed. 1t is very
neat and pretty building, and has very
line location, and is very desirable stand.
understand that Mr.. Z. will sell st 8
very reasonable price. Any one wishing
TO purchase a nice home in the heart of
one OF the most charming villages in the
State of Maine, would do we'll 10 purchase
this.
Our enterprising tOwnsman, Mr.. j. A.
French, has his elegant boarding house
nearly ready for company. The plaster
ing was put on by Messrs. Powers and
Estes OF Bethel.
The summer schools in this village are
under the instruction OF Miss NJ. Ella
Alden of Waterford. and Miss Edna New
ION OF this town. This is the fourth
term in succession that Miss Newton has
had charge of the Primary department.
and has given excellent satisfaction TO
all The Supervisor paid high compli-
ment 10 Miss Newton in his annual re-
port. and stated that be considered her
school the best 10 town.

BETHEL. May 30.-Thursday, May
Sob, as has been the custom for several
years past. was chosen as the day in which
to strew with flowers the widely scattered
graves OF our patriotic dead. At 2 O'Clock
p. u. a procession WAS formed in front Of
the Elm House. marched TO the village
cemetery. Bethel Coruet Band furnished
music. Lieut.. Haskell, President OF the
day. after making few remarks called
on Rev. Mr.. Harthorn, who made the
prayer, thanking God tina, the toll and
suffering OF the great struggle were past,
that peace onco more smiled upon US.
We should not forget the sacrifices OF the
living and the dead, but cherish not only
the memories OF our heroes, but the prin.
ciples for which they conlended. After
music by the band, addresses were made
by Rev. Mr. Simmons, DR.. n. L. True.
Rev. c. f. Bisbee. Maj. True, Rev. Mr..
Garland Mr.. Bosserman and Rev. Mr..
Mills. The speakers dwelt upon the
characters of our late war which we have
seen ourselves, which are now beginning
to pass into history and which our swift
advancement i, teaching US TO think of as
long gone by, with their darkness and
their horror. We find that our memory
OF them is sweetened and frightened by
the reverence and love which we have
tor that which became enduring and solid
through their struggles and their pain.
We may wander over the decisive battle
fields of history, but we shall see there
only the rude mounds silent and grass
grown, some rusty shot which hurled
death in its loug-torgotten Aight, some
broken and halt-buried caisson, the lilies
blooming through It's wrecked and rotten
wheels, or some SCARED and shivered
tree trunks when the concentrated fire OF
laundering batteries made death the
surest. DR.. Tue. in hi. remarks referred
to one of our brave soldiers. Lieut.. II. p.
Brown. who fell bravely leading his COM
pany into battle at Anlietam, Sept. 10.
1862. Well do we remember the spot
where he fell under; an apple-lree near
b7 we counted seven more of his COM
rades cold in death. We celebrate this
day, May S6,h.
Strew the blossoms DER our dead,
Lovely lies each conquerors head;
Spread the flowers sweet, around,
Where they sleep In hAllowed ground.
Strew the flowers, and though they fade,
over each beloved head;
Yet. their memory shall remain,
Like their banner, free from stain.
