Maybe.
She leant across the stile,

She leant across the stile,
With her merry golden smile
And her bonny brown eyes gIsncine
Through The green leaves all the willie;
And he who loved her 80,
Watched from the path below;
But she tossed her hesd so daintii,,
And laughed and bade him go.
Maybe maybe! we csraot know;
Maybe. maybe twas better so!
When the winds of March were loud,
And the skies were dark with cloud,
He had won her love forever,
And she trusted all he vowed.
But she wept against his heart:
s'Oh, my darling, We must part;
For a barrier lies between us.
Foreveruiore, sweetheart %
Maybe! maybel we cannot knowj
Maybe maybe! twas better sol
And the years have pissed away,
And they both are old and gray;
But the same sweet dream is iu their teatts
Forever and for aye.
Oh, sweet and sad the pain
Or the love that will not waue'
So sweet, so sweet, because so true,
So sad because in vain
Maybe maybe! We cannot show,
Maybe may be it shall be better so

The introduction of the tomato into the
United States is given as follows by an ex-
change; good many years age man
who had recently come from the Bermuda
Islands was sent to York County Pa, Jail,
for some offence. he had with him few
seeds, which he planted in the rich soil of
the Jail yard. Before the plants which
sprang from the seed reached maturity he
was discharged, and no one knew the name
or nature of them. They grew luxuriantly,
bearing fruit of large size and unusual ap-
pearance. As this strange fruit ripened, its
color changed from green to brilliant red,
and became an object of wonder and admi-
ration to all the inmates of the jaii.
Just when the fruit was fully matured,
the Bermuda prisoner revisited the Jail, and
asked TO see the plant. This request grant
ed, he called for pepper, salt and vinegar,
and to the horror of the lady keeper, COM
msnced to Eat of the fruit, which she sup
posed to be poisonous, with relish that
as,cnished the beholders. After enjoying
the strange repast, he informed her that
the fruit or vegetable was the tomato or
love-appie, and it would be found whole
some and nutritious. The seeds of the re-
naming tomatoes were carefully preserved
and distributed among the friends and
heiehbor's of the lady, and thus this now
bopuIar esculent was introduced into
the ancient and goodly borough of York.
For many years thereafter it was cultivated
as an ornament rather than for table use,
but BY degrees its merits began to be more
fully understood and appreciated, and there
as elsewhere, it grew into general pubic
favor.

has been in condition that has given
rise to many serious apprehensions.
DR.. Hamilton made an incision in
the swollen gland below the ear yes

the throbbing that has given much
annoyance to the President.

Shall We have Graded School.

We are glad to chronicle that the
people of our village and vicinity
have at last awakened to the startling
truth that they are half century be-
hind the times with their facilities for
education. Now our people do not
detract from the efficiency of our un-
derpaid and overworked instructors of
past times, in evincing purpose of
making one more stride in the perfec-
ton of the school system. Time has
worn smooth long since the turns and
corners of the arts and crafts of our
fathers times. The scientific princi-
pies that are now rapidly infusing
themselves in the every day occupa-
lions of life, require a knowledge of
the PHILOSOPHERS that have hitherto
been untaught, to be master me-
chanic.
Time has driven revolution in the
arts and sciences and arts is driving
us-if we must be driven-to revo-
luton in our common schools. The
time has now come in which it is nee
essary to have knowledge Of mech
anism to heaviest our grains, or tc
dig a we'll. Mental power has usurp-
ed physical power.
It is the determination Of our citi-
zens of Newtown to give their children
not only longer term of schooling
but a higher standard, not only a
a standard that will capacitate them
for the mechanical occupations, but
will infuse in them the one degree
that must forever attach to those who
move in circles above the Mediocre
The Convention of the 18th inst, ap-
pointed a committee to ascertain the
amount on subscription that will be
donated for the purpose of suppletine
the free school fund-and to negotiate
with the present authorities of the
public schools as to the best mode Of
combining the two funds, and selection
of competent instructors.
The committee will have completed
their business at or before the time Of
the next meeting, to be held about
the middle of next week, at which
meeting it is hoped the citizens will
honor the convention with their pres
ence.
