Va Times are rendering thanks every week
for favors from the sugar bush. We knew.
Of eourse. that they we're very clever fel-
lows over there, bur didn't suppose that all

thing be done for some OF the rest of US?

Its a good thing for the Standard that
there is so much loose brains seattle ell
| about the concern, half developed and
half employed, and spelling for want OF
use. By bringing it into use, quite fusil-
lade may be kept up, and the reader be
enabled to see what time and space will
enable fellow 10 accomplish in the way
Of amplification and elaboration. A col
umn or so in this way would keep things
in healthy state, and enable US the better
to wrestle with-with the ''blue devils"
Elder Drake, of the New Lyme Free
Baptist Church, has received call from
the First Free Church OF Harrisburg, Pa,
and viii leave Dodgeville for his new field
about the middle of April. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Drake are highly esteemed in their
present locality, and their removal will
cause many regrets among the people they
leave, and somewhat similar regrets will be
felt at the loss Of the Elders influence from
this region. The object Of their leaving

two months Of Spring after we have had

begun to look for its full advent, and he
is Of gentle and equable mold who does
not give expression to his disappointment
and impstience.
The Culley mannfaeting company, it
will be seen, are out with a trade manifesto,

competitors on either hand-Buffalo and
CleYelAnd-in the matter Of prices Of goods |
in their line. Sash, blinds and doors are
put down unreservedly to wholesale prices
by which middle men and second profits
are wholly excluded. Those who are build
ing will without doubt look into this mat
ter, and see for themselves if these things
are verify so. Whatever this company pre-
pose to do will be done without a perad-
venture. Poor Richard tell US, you know,
that "a penny saved is as good as two pen
