hardly know whether to write any thing or not. If one will correspond for a local newspaper in a village ot this size he will find it anything but pleasant task. If you tell what little news there is, some one is sure to get their back up, and If you let few weeks pass without sending any home news, then they will find fault and wonder why such and SUI ,h things are not published; but every time the items that they are sorry arc not in print are matters that concern other people besides themselves. This village Is fair sample of all New England will ages, plenty of gossip-more than enough and better circulated than any paper can be, as those who can not tor will not) read can. and will talk, no two telling it the same. No matter how small the black crow Is at first, 1t amounts to two, three, yes even Il whole flock of black crows in going from one end of the village to the other, and so twisted and used up as to be nothing like the original.
