Happy I count the farmers life,
Its various round Of wholesome toll;
An honest man with loving wife,
And offspring native TO the soil
Thrice happy, surely lin his breast
Plain wisdom and the trust In God;
His path more straight from EAST to west
Than politician ever trod.
His gains no loss 10 other men:
HIS stalwart blows inhiot no wound
Net busy with his tongue or pen,
He questions truthful sky aud ground
Partner with seasons and the sun,
Natures co-worker; all his skill
Obedience, cen ~ waters run,
Winds blow, herb beast their laws fulhl.
vigorous youthhood, clean and bold;
manly manhood, cheerful age;
His comely children proudly hold

Unhealthy work, false mirth, chicane,
Guilt-needless woe, and useless strife
o cities, vain, inane, insane!
How happy is the farmers life

An EXPLANATION.


Mr.. EDIToR:-Admittng that it was
eminently proper if not absolutely necessary
that the public should be informed of my
horse hiring and driving affair think the
truth if not quite as sensational will to
majority of your readers be quite as satisfac-
tory and with this view of the case
request the same publicity through the columns
of your daily to this true statement of the
whole affair as the first report of the same
received. I went to Mr.. Gay on Thursday,
July 18th and engaged a team to 60 to Good
evening at 10 o'clock. 1 asked for special
terms as I said and then thought that the
horse would stand in the barn the entire day
Friday. But Mr.. Gay siad if they (the
horses, he has twO)'weye at home they wonld
be called for and so if I took one 1t did not
make much difference whether he worked or
not as far as price was concerned at least. He
made no reduction in price but charged me
the usual price for days work. 1 drove to
Goodwin's Mills and farther as informed
him on my return, fed his horse as he directed
with but one exception. took eight hours in
which to drive q miles and arrived home at
4 o'clock Friday afternoon. Finding no one at
the stable fastened the team and sent Mr..
Gay note by boy saying to him that 1 had
driven farther than I intended to when |
started. and that I.would call the next day and
settle up. Being called away early left the
amount which l agreed to pay with my wife,
directing her to hand it to Mr.. Gay aud to tell
him that whatever extra he thought due him,
if any, would hand him on my return. This
is all of the affair up to the appearance of the
article in your columns in reference to the
same. L owe for considerable horse work but
L challenge anyone to show that any animal
was ever illtreated by me.

Mrs Caroline II. Hooper

There are many, very many, that will learn
of the death of this most estimable woman
with feelings of deep sorrow Although her
age should have warned us that she could not
not remain much longer on earth, still we have
been accustomed to see her for so many years
going about ministering to the sick and dying
that we almost felt that she would always be
with the living doing good. Her whole life
seemed to be one continuous act of charitable
deeds, kind and loving. Never firing in her
watchfulness in the sick room, actuated by a
desire to help her fellow creatures, and accept
ing the thanks and appreciation by words
rather than by more substantial payment as
the highest and best reward. Countless moth
ers, remembering her solcitude in their behalf,
and realizing her gentle assistance to them in
the hour OF their greatest anguish, will, now
that she is gone, offer many prayers and shed
many tears, while remembering they will new
er see her pleasant face nor hear her sweet en-
couraging voice again. While "Aunt Hooper,
as she was famililarly known, possessed a
strong will there was about her the simplicity
of child, and in all she did she fully exem-
plifed an entire trust and submission to a
higher power, which is the best type of the
Christian life. May her memory remain green
in the hearts of all who knew aud loved her.
