Our farmers are making good use of the few sunny hours we have had for the past week in getting in their hay. Mrs. Jane CROPSY has returned from Mechanicsville, where she has been dressmaking for a few weeks past. Mr. LEFEVRE was brought home by Mr. WATERMAN to-day (Wednesday), in an easy carriage. he can walk just a little, and is recovering as fast as could be expected. Mr. O'BRIEN cared for him very kindly; but there is no place like home, especially when one is sick. We note that Mr. SMALLEY has peas in his garden about 9 feet high. They are an English variety. Every house in our little village is occupied, William GIBSON having moved into the only vacant one, known as the mill boarding-house. We hope that Mrs. GIBSON will feel quite at home with us. Mr. and Mrs. Dr. A. F. MOORE of Ludlow arrived here, last Sunday, in time for the morning service, and remained to attend the evening meeting. They enjoyed it much, especially the young people's meeting. After a brief sermon by the pastor at 7:30 p. m., the young people have the time and their meetings are growing in numbers and interest.
