fresh bark is ground between stones into a
very fine pulp, and as much as is required

Inquiry about the two boys, or young
men, who, il is believed, were drowned at

Spring has now fairly opened and it is
likely that henceforth, for several weeks or
months, we will have steady weather, and
everything seems to be in favorable con-

people that its promise was not made mere
