6O years OF age, who rarely attended

On Monday evening he met two
friends of kindred disposition, by
arrangement, at Cotman's Hotel.
They had male every provision for
a supper. and the tables were loaded
with poultry and liquors Every one
was in good health and spirits. Be
fore he sat down one Of the guests
suggested that Thomas, who was the
oldest man present, should offer up
prayer. This be did amid laugh

whom were Richard Mieers, Town

TO the honse with which he is con

now seek to recover the lost trade
by getting some other young man
Prom the same country neighborhood.
Thus the result is, two, three or four
young men are drawn from the fields
where their labors were p.o-
ductiye and remuneratiye, to town
where their labor adds not a cent s
value TO anything. The whole bust
ness Of the town could have been done
as well, probably better, without
them. Now of the things which fre-
quently happen, we may mention as
the sadd:st Of all, the bright promis

dEaw trade; competition is sharp, and

inducements to his customers, to dis
