There were only about 20 present at the meet ing and the time taken to do this busi- ness consumed about 10 minutes.

Sorrow. next JOY. is what we ought to pray for.
As. next to peace. we profit most from pain"
The best, however, Is considered none
too good for free born American citizens !;
and the pursuit of joy and peace, as the
constituents of happiness, is one of the
inalienable rights claimed for all men in
the immortal Declaration OF Independ-
ence.
Mr.. Henry l.. Weed, Of Belfast, Me-,
has had exceptional success In the pur-
suit Of that without which, in general.
neither enjoyment nor happiness is pos
sible,- good health. He is young man
who for thirteen years, had been afilict-
ed with rheumatism, indigestion, and q
cough, which last was so constant and
troublesome, particularly since severe
attack Of la grippe, that he was sppre-
hensiye Of consumption, two members
Of his family having died Of that disease.
He suffered almost constantly from rheu-
matism, which particularly affected his
right foot, to such an extent that he was
IRE quently unable to work for days and
even weeks at time. He had been treat
ed by many regular physicians and had
expended a large amount Of money for
various popular patent medicines without
receiving any benefit from either. He
says:

An accident which has caused lots OF talk
about the Washington county coast Is the
wreck of the steamer Lucy Z. Miller, which
went ashore on Petit Menan, April 4. The
wreckers fairly swarm around the vessel and
nail wire, electric light fittings, hemp. cotton.
molasses, ETC.. reward those who bought the
cargo, while tambOurnes, baDjos. fish horns.
mems hats and ladies' garments are fshed out
and appropriated by whoever gets them. On
one day thrty-one vessels were at anchor near
by, their owners busiiy engaged in overhaul
ing the wreck. while the chorus Of fish horns
and tambourines In the hands of the small
boys and the general excitement gave the
island a sort Of Fourth of July appearance.
The story of the wreck contains some inter-
esting facts. When the vessel struck, at 8
A. NJ, a boat was lowered and all on board
except seven men got into it and started for
the shore. The breakers-were SO high. how
ever. that they were unable to reach land until
ten O'Clock. Meanwhile the tide went down
and those who had remained on board the
steamer were able TO walk ashore and when
the boats load arrived they were there ready
to greet them. Among the passengers was
one young lady who displayed great GOODNESS
through her trying experience.
