ora Dr. Hollembaek house in prepara-
ton ton for the Burlington CITY Loan and
trust Co.'S new building, has placed
on on the editorial desk a copy OF the
Cecil wing newspaper, which was is
sued February 9, 1886, at E1kton, Mary
land. On the margin the name Rev
X, Davidson is written in ink. AT this
distance it looks as though The Wing
was pretty live paper in its dav and
way. Wonder if it is still going?-Rur-
linpton, On. j. Gazette
We beg to assure our foreign friend
and kind inquirer that we are "still
going" We are not in the lists with
the race horse or the automobiles but
for an ordinary old country hack, with
the weight of more than three-score
years upon our limbs, we amble along
at pretty fair jog.

Dire rebel though he was,
Yet with noble nature and great gifts
Was he endow'd-courage, discretion, wit,
An equal temper, and an ample soul,
Rockbound and fortified against assaults
OF transtory passion but below
Built on surging subterranean fire
That stirrd and lifted him to high attempts
So prompt and capable, and yet so calm,
He nothing lackd in sovereignty but the right,
Nothing in sodership except good fortune
Wherefore with honor lay him in his grave,
And thereby shall increase of honor come
Unto their arms who vanquished one so wise,
So valiant, so renown'd.
