Christmas lias come, and the printer need* a holiday as well as other people, so we will therefore not issue a paper next week. The next issue will be Jan. 6'h, which will contain an account of the elections soon to transpire. Nothing hut an advertising sheet will be issued. In the meaniime, however, we waive the ensign of good will, and wish our friends a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. With whatever fesiivilie* the day may bring, we hope that the merry ring of good clieer and the gifts of old Santa may glad den the hearts of the many little ones all over the broad land. ■ ——- WHAT WE WANT. The political camats is in full blast. The farmer lias been el bowed almost through his Sun day coat, ami the candidates’ mean liquor having left him a bad head and a worse slomache, be feels like retiring to some quiet quarters and plan hia own campaign against the grass ol 'B7 and the “gaunt world/’ By your permission I will sug gest a fine hiding place, and one, too, that will yield more gold than all others known to out section. Somewhere on .vour farm search out in a little cove slotting southward a fertile spot about 10 X 14 feet. Ciean off nicely and put thereon enough wood to burn the ground till suf wilr Wj daen that may be there. Dig up, (noi deep) and clean off all the trash and row tobacco seed —tramp in while the ground is yet warm Then cover the bed witli pine or cedar brush sufficiently to keep the ground from freezing. Then go home, and after supper get down the old cob pipe and smoke to the health of all the candidates whose sunny faces you have eluded, and to the fine crop of tobacco, the foundation of .which you have laid. Space does not permit a further say at this time. But for the interest of the farmer directly, and thereby the general welifaro of the country, 1 want every planter who can to put in at least one acre of tobacco.

The country lad who in trained to simple ways and homely virt ues. aud who learns wlial a dol lar is worth by actually earning it, under the laws of imperative necessity, has a tremendous ad vantage over the town boy. T.* country schools are far mferioi to the town or city school, but this is counterbalanced by the fact that the country boy is train ed to work from the lime he can pick up coin cobs to ruu the kitchen stove until he goes out to his own home. The country boy has a mile or so to w alk to and from school, which give him vigorous eppetite and health. The country boy or girl is lace to lace with practical realities. He sees how stowly money is made on the farm ; he is taught from youth up the need of economy; he has the nature of saving tirsi explained to him every day in the week ; he is not exposad (o the temptation of the aaloou. or the ball room; he is uol tempted so much to be a lady’s man before he has occasion to use a razor on hi* downy cheeks. lie miy b a tr.fl j (rude, ha may not far! ca*jr m company, but in litre long closely contested race ol life, it ia the chap that trudges to School baiefooled in simmer and in atogas in winter, whose moth* i #*r cuts his hair with Ihe sheep* •hears, that leads the chap tha< goes to the city school with the •‘arched shirt fiamt and fancy slippers, and whom head is shav ed with (lie lawn-mower in llm barber-shops.

SEC RE L SORROWS. They suffer most who suffer alone. Kacli heart knows and hides its own bitterness. There are people who bruit their troub les about, who hawk them as wares in exchange lor sympathy. 11 .t these are not the people who need sympathy most ; these are not the ones who mourn as those without hope. Toe real sufferers are those ol us who wrestle alt the night long w.t'i our gl'iets like J*:ou did with tlie grappling angel, and who hide them awav behind a smile when daylight comes, as a dove lolds its wings lo conceal Ihe arrow that has pierced its vitals. The finest acting in thn world is never seen on the siage. The real trage dians and dramatist go in and out of the marls ot trade ami the meeting places of society. They are men ami women who talk am) laugh ami live like oilier people, while deep down iu then bosom u tragedy goes on with no audience but the eye ol (Jo<<—j tragedy in winch the faiigeU Hrt* gtiuyvfng and swallow rngTttir ilie core of a human Heart.

Allei all, it is strange Dial man ever laughs. Every step he lakes is toward his own grave. Man is a creature that comes to us labeled “from the indefinite past u the indefinite luture.” Time tin tomb-builder, is ms only Iriend, since lie uni icks t'le only gate through which man may flee from ins hounding iio.ibles.

A physician, about sixiy years ago, could repeal the whole ol “Para dise Lost,” without a mistake, al though lie had not read it lot 20 vearr. Euler, ihe great mathe matician, when he became blind, could repeal the whole ol Virgil’s "/E eid,” ami could remenibei tlie first line and tlie last line on every page of the particular edi liou which lie had been accus tomed to read before he became blind. One kind of relenlivi memory may be considered as il.s result ol sheer work, a determi nation toward one particular a chiev meat without relerence to eiiher cultivation or to memory on oilier subjects.
