AN EYE-sORE.

The grand old town of Salisbury takes justi6able pride in it's ancestry; pride in it's history; pride in it's scenery; pride in it's soldiers monument; pride in it's Memorial Library; pride in its public buildings and private residences; pride in it's institutions;pride in it's indi- vidual and collective wealth; and pride in many other things that make resi- dence there desirable. Notwithstand- ing all these features land many more that could be mentioned in painting a word picture of Salisbury the sad fact remains that Salisbury allows one of its cemeteries to bean eye-sore to humanity and disgrace to civilization. We al- Jude to the cemetery in Chapinville, near the Humes place.
 On visiting that cemetery about ten days ago we found itin most wretched and neglected condition. The grass was uncut. The milk weeds and bushes ; lowered above the standing grave stones. Many of the grave stones have fallen down. The entire enclosure is used as 3 calf pen; even trough where the calves are fed has been constructed in- side the fence. Sheep are also pastur' ed there, and hen had her nest beneath the bushes that covered one grave Just outside the fence was an odoriforous hog pen, and the fence was broken SC that the hogs could pass in and out oi the cemetery. In the northeast corner of the cemetery, almost concealed by bushes and brambles, are the graves o1 MT and Mrs Jonathan Scoville, the grandparents of the Messrs Scoville te whose memory library building in the village of Salisbury has recently beer erected and dedicated.
 We know not who Is individually re sponsible for the condition of thil cemetery, but instead of being "God'i acre" the place looks the opposite. I is remarkable contrast to the pictur, drawn Tn Hon. Lyman D. Brewster poem read at the dedication of Th Scoville Library, nevertheless some o the worthies mentioned in that poen sleep in said cemetery.
 We shall be pleased to report any i'm provements in the condition of sai cemetery.

North Canaan farmers must be pretty we'll off if all are like William Bennett, who reports that thieves have stolen be- tween $1 ,0OO and $1, 300 from his safe. It is not merely that the farmer has a safe, but that he does not know within $500 how much money he had in it This argues solvency that is not the lot of most city people.
