Often we pass a certain class of youth, and in passing hear that which is very unseemly. We think those guilty of such conduct should be dealt •with as breakers of the public peace. If they have no respect for: themselves, let them respect those who walk our thoroughfares, remembering at the same time, that the tongue, al- though a small member, •is capable of much mischief.

In many cases the seed is finding its way,into its summer especially oats and spring wheat. On Saturday last many sowed some of the latter. Those who know tell us that there will, in all probability, be a good fruit crop this year, and those who do not know say the same thing: it is to be hoped that they are both right.
