difficult to fill.' Difficult on account of
his peculiarities and acquired abilitie a

drivings of instinct. There wa< no spark
of tho glorio'M, oil consuming fire in

fair start and he hi.uself worked out the
rest.
In his death the Republican party

How the Order put Away TnEIR
Djcad.
The first burial of a uember of the
Patrons of Husbandry with the honors
of the order, that has oorne to * our no
tice, took place a few days since in
Kickpaoo, when the remains,of Henry
Bolin were consigned to their last rest
ing plaee with all the pomp and funer
al pageant of tho Granger burial hot
vio?. Mr. Bolin was ? prominon* mem
ber, and the at ten dan ca was very large,
some 400 persons being present. The
programme of the burial was about as
follows.
On tearing the residence of the do
crastrd, the hc&rsc which oooUined the
remains was flanked on either side by
three pall bnarers, who walked with
uncovered heads and regalias draped
iu mourning. Following the hoarse
came the relatives of tho deceased, and
next marched the Sisters of the Order
clad in full regalia. The Brothers came
next, and following them tho rait c tu
course of people, who had ome from far
and near to witness tho coromonies. The
remain* were first taken to tho chureh,
wore a priest went through a ceremony
peculiar to the Catholic church, of which
tho deceased was a member. Whou the
oxcrcise had been eoneluded, the proces
sion took up its inarch for the cemetery
where the Grangor funeral rites were
performed. The coffin was placed on
supports directly over the open gravo
aud remained there uitil the imprcmivo
and interesting servioo wsi concluded:
(i. B. Coffin, Master of the Franklin
Crange, conducted the coromouies.
When tho brvthera aud sisters of the
grange of which the deceased was a
member, had assemble! ab mt the grave
the Master read a solcction fr>m the
burial ritual, followed by a soco 11 selej
tion by the Chaplin, and then the ui uu
hers repeated slowly and solemnly tho
Loiu\? tr.v or, closing with a beaut it u!
and appropriate hymn. Thi?Bro'.h or 4
of the Order then stepped to.thj grave \
and threw into tho opening several bou
quets of flowcra and cvcrgrcon<. A
.-ho. t, but powerful a ldro4* was next d<3
livored by the Chaplain- While the
coffin was being lowered into th; gr*vo,
a beautiful aud soul iuspiriug by in was
sung, and during thesiugin* the sitters
strewed bouquets of flowers upon
the descending eofH i ua'il it reached
the wooden box at tho bottom of the
grave. The Master then sprinkled the
portion of dirt thrown from the grave
over tbo coffin, and the service closed
with tho solemn bouediutiou of tho*
Chaplain.
Taken throughout tho ceremonies
wire very beautiful and improssivc.
This was tho first burial of a Granger
in the oounty, aud, if wo are currently
informed, in the State?that is, with
the ceremonies of the Order.
A Terrible Scene.
Tmmoufle damage ?as done in Sher
brooke, Guysborough County, N. S., by j
a frenhet. The St. Mary's River was
swollen by the rain and thaw. A cou- '
pie of miles abr.ro Sherbrooke there is
a natural dam of rocks across the rirer,
beyond which for several miles it is call
ed Still water. Tho ice on tho rirer
broke up in consequence of the lreshot,
and flooded the whole of the valley. On
tho loft bank of the river where Sher !
brooke is situated the scene was a fear
ful one. The flood brought down thou
sand of tons of ice and great number of
logs. Whole trees were nprootcd from
tho banks in the course of the torrent.
The solid ice below the village remain
ed firm, and the flats upon which Sher
brooke stands, became a boiling sea.
Boats and canoes wore in demand. Eve
ry house was flooded. Tho cattle were
driven out of town by persons on horse -
dack. Tho women children, and aged
people were taken away in boats. Many
families abandoned their hoascs alto
gether, while others took refuge in the
upper storios. Two bridges in tho vil
lage, and a large bridge over the St.
Mary's River, are gone. A new vessel
nearly roady for launching was destroy
ed, and much timbor carried away. The
day after the flood the mountaius of ico
and tho logs, trees a*id other debris bo
came frozen solid, so that tho village is
now imbedded in s froren sea. The
ruin is indescribable; it extends a mile
-aid a half in length, by a mile in breadth
In the event of a sudden thaw the vil
lage will be quite destroped.
'Head Ub Somebody.'?The elerk
of a County in tho Western part of the
State, was breaking a yearling calf.
Th* calf walked around very peaoeably
under the yok* while Mr. Clerk held up
the othlr end. but in an unforfctnnto
moment the mau conceived tho idea of
putting his own head in tho yoke, to
let the calf see how it would work with
a partner. This frightoned the oalf
which raised in voice and tail and
struck out. Its own^r went along, and
the pair core through the priucipal street
of the village, Mr. Clerk with his head
down and his plug hat in his hand, yell
ing, JHere we come, d?n our fool
souls 1 11 end us somebody.'
