A TRIBUTE TO PUBLIC SPIRIT.-Any
one passing down Seymour street In
our village and noticing the splendid
line of elm trees Of two years setting,
will be struck with the wisdom that
directs the public spirit of Hon. Joseph
Battell while expanding large sum
every year for public benefit on the
street above alluded to; every tree
shows rapid growth, and will soon
fringe the road on either side for miles
from the village. The citizens of Wey-
bridge should feel under lasting obi
CATION to Mr.. Battell for the public
spirit he has shown in the expenditure
he has made in making splendid road
for two or three miles from our village,
on the east part of the town. In very
few years there can be no pleasanteI
drive than from the head of Seymour
street to the country scat of Mr.. Bat
tell in Weybridge, a distance of two
and half miles. lie has already ex'
pended thousands of dollars upon the
road, and large sum for shade trees
all the way to his place. He has also
caused trees to be planted In other di
rections from our village, causing Q
large outlay. 1t is pleasant to know
that there is one man, at least, wht
possesses wealth in this communit!
who uses it almost wholly for the bene
fit of the public-a man who, while hi
cares very little for personal ornaments
ton, has a keen discriminating eye 70
public taste and comfort. G.
