It fell to the lot of a young man in
New York to attend funeral the other
day. He did not know any Of the mem

his business to be at that funeral, and
he went The services, which were
in the family residence, were fairly IN

and. much to his embarrassment the
butler insisted upon leading him TO a
seat very close to the coffin. After the
service the mental acoosted the
stranger as he was leaving the house.

And nirth holds an endless feast;
Where tears are dried like the morning dew,
And Joys are many, ana griefs are few;

And life rings clear as a bell:
Oh the land where the chimes speak sweet

There are beautiful lands where the rivers Tow
Through valleys Of rtpenei grain;

No God but the God OF Gain.
The chiuk Of gold is the song they sing,
And all their lifetime harvesting

In measures they buy and sell;
But the land where love is the coin and king
Is tie land where the children DWELL

In Memory Of lanes NutIinq.

The pomologv of Maine suffers a serious
loss in the death of Hon. James Nuttng OF
Perham; for besides being remarkable
pomoiogist he was highly respected and
worthy citizen. Educated to the trade of
u printer and journalist, Mr.. Nutting left
good positions and served three years
n the Union army. In 1865 he settled in
Perham in the northern part of Aroostook
county and engaged in farming. He held
important local offices of trust, and repre-
scented his town and county both in the
House of Representatives and in the State
Senate. His service to fruit culture in
northern Maine has been invaluable, as by
his example in planting apple trees in that
high northern latitude when others were dis
couraged, and in experimenting with new
varieties suited to that cold section, he has
pre- formed a noble work, and his memory
will live in the orchards he has planted and
encouraged others to plant in northern
Maine, after the whole race of our petty
politicians is forever forgotten. ! saw Mr.
Nutting only few weeks ago. in apparent
good health and gave some account Of his
fine and profitable orchard in the Mirror
and Farmer. He had charge Of sub-station
OF the Maine experiment station, and under
direction OF Professor Nunson of the
.Stste College was carrying on some import
ant experiments with Russian aud other va
rie'ies of apples and plums. know of no
onc so well qualified to take mp and carry
out his experiments As his neighbor, Mr..
Charles !. Spaulding, young aud intelli-
gent farmer. who has large orchard. is
thoughtful and ,tudious, and Is highly es-
teemed by his townsmen. it is hoped for
the cause of Maine pomology that Mr..
Spaul,ling may be induced TO take mp this
