The Song of the MilkmAid.

Turn turn for my cheeks they burn;
Turn by the vale, my Harry
Fill, pail gil, pail
He's turned by the vale,
Far there BY the stile waits Harry,
The world may go round-the world
may stand still,
But I-can milk and marry.

Now, that sounds well, but we happen
to know the milkmaid didn't say it Just
that way. As near as we could catch the
words, she sung:
So so ! brute huddup your foot
Look at ys now, where you've stuck it
Hold still your tail
Stiff as q fail,
And both hind feet in the bucket
There standsa tramp by the barnyard gate,
And-so there you brute, or IN lam ye
So, now; so! All, beast There you 90
And there goes the pail, toe; dog
gone COW, anyhow.

[ o CIL MATTERS.

KEY. J. ANDERSON of the First Presby. terian Church Of Tucson came up to Flor ence last Saturday and remained in town until Tuesday evening when he Ieft by stage for home. He came simply on q visit to friends, and not specially to look aiter church matters, but by request he preached two most excellent sermons on sunday which were listened to closely and with satisfaction by appreclative audiences. Mir. Anderson has been nearly two years al Tucson, and this is only the second Sabbath he has been absent from his charge. His faithful efforts have been crowned with a marked degree of success A church has been begun through his efforts. which if completed according to design. will be a handsome ornament To the town and an evidence of the success Of his labors. NIT. Anderson receives great assistance and encourage. ment from the citizens of Tucson, and his work is in very cheering condition. We hope Rev. Meyer will be equally earnest and efficient.
