Warm and cool weather alternately
prevails. Corn continues to suffer in
consequence of the cut worm. Farmers
and truckers have much to try their pa
thence. We are heart and soul with the
classes named. The failure of the diff
ferent crops would carry with it the sad
consequences to the houses of rich and
poor alike. Listen! The woods resound
with the sweet songs of birds and ma.
ture, fOOrsOOth, seems to share in the
joy.
No sickness to chronicle This is phe-
nomenal inasmuch as doctors generally
md something to do if it only be to adj
minister a placebo, /. G., "bread pills.
ETC., to crafty cooked" imagination.
Examiner Geo. W. Joy visited the
schools of the district recently. That the
teachers essay to discharge their duty is
not questioned. We are inclined to in
dulge the opinion that many of the large
pupils are apt to err in attributing too
much to genius and favorable opportu-
mites. To them there is lion i'm the
way. True, the path which leads to
knowledge is not covered with roses.
On the contrary, toll is the price of
knowledge. A tulip or kiss me at the
garden gate occasionally may be seen to
cheer the student. A lion is in the way,
but with full and preserving purpose of
heart the. beast will disappear. Labor
conquers all things, and If we get any
thing of real worth to us we must labor
for il.
Cherries are getting ripe, and, well,
crows, hooking birds, etc, are having a
feast.
Consignments of soft crabs are being
made, and minimum figures so far are
realized. Fish, such as rock and her
rings, are being caught. Few shad at
this time. They are beginning to GO
where no one has discovered. We have
realized the truth of the assertion that
salt water fish are more palatable than
those caught in fresh water
We notice that lambs and wool are be-
ing shipped from Miller's and Grason's
wharves.
II does not require extraordinary in
ward light to understand that the citi-
Zens of st. Inigo's are getting along
swimmingly without the aid of r. r.
transportion. They have been deceived
so often by false reports that railway
communication would be guaranteed
them at certain stated periods, incred-
ulity has become chronic with them. 1t
would be inconsiderate in them to be-
lieye report without sufficient data to
induce them to consider it in a favorable
manner
How thankful Men POSSESSES an in
mate power of disting gushing good from
evil. Very little inebriety occurs here
about. We are pleased to know that
some of our acquaintance have stopped
moment to think. Aye, to consider
the standard for them to distinguish right
from wrong.
No new developments in the political
world to mention. We believe the pray
or of Frederick the Great is frequently
repeated by both Caucasian and Afro
American. Deliver me from my friends,
aha! The latter class are alive to the
fact, so they assert, that some of their
leaders use them as the monkey did the
n no IN h. nl..
the fire, hence, the cssaying by them to
form third party. That there is a man.
Hesitation of distrust-a mistaken friend
shtp-no casual observer cannot fail to
discern.
More rain. What beautiful flowers
Isn't the fragrance delightful. That
Gods goodness and consummate wis
dom appears with conspicuous lustre in
the growth and infiorescence named. is
an exposition of truth not to be ques-
toned by the sane minded observer.
Mrs. Nelson Ridgell, of Park Hall vi
entity, visited her daughter, Mrs. Fannie
Clarke, of the Pine. recently.
Cool weather continues, and summer
is near.
No reports have reached us that sheep
have been molested by dogs. We are a
friend To dogs and it is consoling to our
feelings TO know that no charges for a
considerable time have been lodged
against them for trespassing-killing
lambs. etc. Dogs, unlike man, are not
capable of moral action and consequent
ly they have no connection with the
moral consequences of moral evil.
