There is quite a scramble for the post office. While several from here are working hard, there is a strong feeling that the position will be given to Mr. T. K. Boddy, of Howick, who has certainly done more for the party in the township than any other person in it: The death of Robt. Dic kson, Esq., our postmaster octurred at his home in this village on Wednesday of last week. Deceased has acted as post- master here for over a qurater of a cen- tury and has alWays held the highest respect of everybody. His fuaerat took place on Friday and was very largely attended.

We wont very wide 9f the mark re- garding our statement of the prospects of a disagreeable time for turnip pick- ing. The past week has been simply delightful and now we do not think there is a turnip out in this vicinity. We must quit prophesying hencefortlu. The farmers are out of a job now as they have all their fall ploughing done and these fme 'days find them basking in the sunshine meditating deeply on —we know not what. Our burg is quite deserted to -night. At present the greater number of our inhabitants are listening to the funny concert at Gorrie whiko the rest of us owing -to the want of money and rigs to take us there are here Whiling our time in loneliness. Mr. Dunnage has his apples nearly all packed and on Wednesday he is shipping from „Gerrie. Liverpool (Eng- land) is the place to which they are to be exported. Messrs. T. Inglis, H.

Idleness is a powerful yet a small word. It means laizness or inaction which weakens the word, mental and physical strength of humanity and leads . to evil. It is the greatest enemy of youth and and finds the youths of towns, villages and cities, itsspecial prey; those of the country being protected by an impene- trable coat of mail called work. We should all try to oppose this enem, of bringing up a strong force of employ ment to act against him or he will act strongly in opposition to as. Life is a, sacred trust from God to be returned with all the gains of faiwoor---- use but if idleness prevails 'Welife is a failure. Now there is a work for every one to do and just at present there is a large field for labor in the Temperance cause. It is very import ant that every moment be employed. for idleness brings nothing but vain: , regrets, sorrow and discontent. Vtitifikr perance workers, I ask you to be more: zealous in the cause. A great reform • is being carried on but there i.`' ta- great work to do before the obje hibition, is attained, The Rum - must be crushed, his agents scattered and Satan's great servant destroyed before our hand will be free from a a great curse. It is the duty of every Christian ha our land to help to raise the falln, t rescue the perishing and to. encoarag.e the weak in the right path. - Then I say to every -mmber of the W.C.T.U., seek out some youth or some pop)! creature, over whom -Satan has a riflii* power through the Rim Fiend, andtry to rescue hitn, set him in tlaeright pith - and work faithfully towards getting the government to prohibit licenses for . making the awful beverage that &uses BO much evil and misery in our fair - land. 0- -0 THE RUM FIEND. - By Mrs. (Rev.) Gallagher. _ The Rum Fiend halted a moment or two To reckon what coarse was best to pursue, I've snares, thought he, for the student's time, And tills for the laborers' hard earned dim. The grapes are filled with luscious juice. The grain is sprouted and ready for use; My servants are ready to still and brew And he smiled as he thought of his profitsdue. My profits are great and expenies small. Yet I've provided for customers all, I've rags for the drintkards wife to wear And crusts and tears for her daily_fare. I have lonely garrets and pallets of straw To which myscustomers may withdra*. Then when prospects are dulletnd intellects fail I willingly assist them off to jail. My business is flourishing, filling the till, I've -license to make and to mast will, I've agents scattered throughout the land Who are gathering for Satan a migity-band. So I'll continue my work, I'll brew and I'll make And ine.ny.a comfort from poor children take, Mother's hearts I shall bresk, happy homes destroy. And in life and its measures -F11 out the joy. As thus the Rum Fiend gloated o'er His prospictsgrim, of wretehed lore, murmaring on the winds Was born That made him feel wretched and very forlorn, It whispered I Warn you the day Mamas hand When your agents and you must forsake that band. , - Your opponent hasagonises well airyourself But they labor for Christanot for liatim or self. The fruits of their labor now slew bid sure; Their work, honest toil with sentkuentmire. They make happy homesseteue serds nearly lost While from life and its measures they haaish the dress. - .
