At the time of his birth the baby weighed

who lives in the same house with Joseph's

A low, rumbling sound is heard in the
far distant west. See the dark clouds as
they pile themselves one upon another.
They come nearer and nearer. Look! what
vivid flashes of electricity. The foliage of
the trees are agitated, and the songs of the
little birds are doubly sweet and soothing.
A deafening defamation and the gates of
the nimbus clouds which seems TO hang
over the village are ajar and both man and
beast rejoice in consequence of the refresh
ing contents of the same, Flora, with her
mimosas and roses of different colors re
joices, too, and she proves her gratefulness
by her many unfolding buds and consum-
mated growth Of leaflets Thanks to Him

The principal crop of wheat has fallen
before the reaper and the old fashioned
scythe, and from what we have ascertained,
fair yield of this valuable cereal is in
store for the respective owners. Oats and
millet are said to be up to the standard OF
such crops. Farmers and truckers should
be thankful, for every thing to date is work
ing in unison for them.

of meaning to convey my thanks to you

~ conferred upon me. II gratifies my pride
TO know that you have reposed such con-

endeavor to discharge intelligently and
willingly the duties incumbent on me as
your presiding officer. Should l, how
