A full and free discussion is desired to the end that the best fire system possible may be established. Farmers can sell, aud do sell, beef in this city without paying a license.

Thousands of Armenians were cruelly butchered by the Turks aud the nations of Europe con tented themselves with expressions of sympathy. The Greeks went bravely to the assistance of the Christians in Crete, and the nations of Europe promptly interfered. Is not this enough to wring from the Christians of Armenia aud Crete the cry, “Lord, save us from onr friend/1’’ nation to do their best, and from information received, as the law yer says, I think the provision crops will be much larger this year than last. As a proof of this I see several farmers preparing to manure their corn heavily, and also fixing to plant nee, chafao and potatoes. Now, Mr. Editor, the fishing season is about to come again. The herrings will soon be running up, and you know you promised to come out and see us. So when the herrings come we will look for you to come. I cordially invite all my friends to come and have a fine time for you all know I am a fine fisherman. Though I never wet a hook, there are ways to catch fish other thau with a hook and line. Just come to my house aud we will have the herrings. The gold bugs say we shall not have free silver, but we will show them about the loth of March that we have free herrings as shiny as a new silver doll»r. Come out.
