NEW YEAR, 1.867.
Annual e
Address of the Carrier of the`
Gettysburg Gettysburg Compiler." .
Once more, kind Patrons, one and all;
Lend me a listening ear,
{,And you shall hear a good Address,
I This first day of the year.
-\ - .
Perhaps you wonder why I'm nut
Snell cold and frosty weather s ;
Perha you wonder why I make
Two Is so near together.
'Twas onl yesterday I called,
As you nnioubt remember;
But then I br7lit the paper of ,
The 31st Dec nber.
But Time since thhoe changed his gig,
lt%
And brought us a Veto Year.;
To tell you of that grts t event
Is j ust my business he.
I'm young in years and rather ``green,"
I freely do confess ; -\
But hear in mind that I am tfn
Attache of the Press.
The miller grinds you wheat and orn,
And cracks you bomb's.;
But I, more skillful far than he,
Will grind you poetry.
My mill Is old and "out of fix,"
. My gearing somewhat creaky ;
My wheels are clogged and full of dust.
My dam is rather leaky.
;Now, while I put my'inill to rights,
And don my miller's sash,
1 I'll tell you, friends, my rule Is this:
I always grind for cash.
If-you will Just "shell out" right well, -
From dollars down to dimes,
I know my mill will grind you out
Some very "heavy" rhymes.
If you would know the reason why
I've called around to-day,
1 You need but get a qualier out
sS nd buy my roundelay.
I My funds are low, yes, very low,
I have n't nary red ;
I tell you, friends, I often go
Quite penniless to bed.
For money once I asked our devil,—
I risked for but a penny;
But tearfully be turned to me,
And said he had n't any.
For money next the boss I asked,
While sitting in his chair;
He shook his head, and thus replied :
r "I hare it not to ware."
•
"Mv paper goes from week to week,"
I - , The boss did further say,
"To
"To men who knots the Golden Rule,
' But still neglect to pay."
''l shall not wonder much, my lad,"
The boss in sorrow said, .
"nould things keep goilig thus awhile, • 1
If you must beg your bread."
I need a coat, I need a hat,
I need a little sled;
I need a ball, I need a bat,
I nerd some gingerbread.
Although I need so many things,
I'll try to do without;
Instead of eating sugar cakes,
I'll live on sour-krout.
On Monday morn I always rise
At earls Oa wn of day;
And with my budget at my back
i
I trudge my weary way.
While yet you on your beds recline,
A n (tem» fortably sseose,
Your hum hie sseeant brings to you
The very latest me,vs.
Just here, my friends, I must recount, ,
As briefly 2!4:. I may,
The doings in our famous town .
Since last I lied my say.
New buildings feet are going ap,
And old ones going down ;
Improvements great can now be seen
In every part of town.
Election day has come and gone;-
And we have lbst the state ,s
Though dying ?turd, we al! submit,
And humbly Wow to fate.
Otr foes admit, with candor rare,
We fought a gallant fight;
There's not a doubt another year
We'll triumph with the right.
Our county ticket was so strong,
That it could not be beat • _
But they who do not stop at wrong
Tried hard us, to defeat.
By various schemes and tricks they cried
To euchre Philip Hann;
But men of sense knew for thatpost
He was the very man.
All honest men rose In tbek

When voting day was sigh,'
And fought theirdbes a noble fight
And smote them hi e s :aid thigh.
In 'fsi the Radicals
Took up for Seater,
A man no fitter for the post
Than Jack, the Janitor.
To win the day, he had recourse :
To lying and deceit;
But wheu the votes were counted out
MeConaughy was beat.
Scarce bad this loyal coward heard
The fact of his defeat,
When he commenced to lay his plans
To steal another's seat.
He gained his point by practicing
His tricks of hocus-oCus •
I
But he is now despisedby . u.l,
And people cull him "bogus."
John Burns, the "hero," still survives,
And thinks he once was brave;
With pride he now regards this town,
Which he alone did save. '
The."bogus" once took him in charge,
And Burns took hint in tow;
Together they went bobbing round,
A splendid little show.
In Kansas once a man there dwelt,
And Geary was his name,
Who by Ids exploits has acquired
- A rich and dying fame.
Near fourscore battles he bas fought,
Including Sniekersville;
At Point of Rocks he showed his pluck,
[ 'But not at Spangler's 11111.
This man will soon be Governor,
And rule us by MS might;
But /shall give him my support,
Provided he does right.
Well, John 'POP. still prints the "Star"
To earn his daily bread '
•
Most loyally he barks and howls,
Aud fights the Rebel dead.
Unless he lights the Irak(' dead,
Opines this worthy lout,
His little soul will have no rest,
When he goes up the "spout."
Some silly stuff this fellow wrote,
Some seven years ago,
In' which he prayed most fervently
1 That blood in streams might now.
The war earns on ; and bloody Mars
I Sent forth his fiery shafts;
But loyal John his carcass saved,
i And helped to make the drafts,
( Just out of town there is a spring,
I That cures the people's ills;
It supersedes the "doctor's stuff,"
. AO does away with pills,
Should Madam ever get the "[dues,"
Or any other fever,
Just dose her well with "Vichy water,"
And it will soon relieve her.
It cures the "shakes," and cures theltch,
And elms the diarrhea;
For all the ills that e'er were known
it Is a panacea.
There is a movement now on foot,
To which I Inuit allude,
Which is to move the County Fair
Into our neighborhood.
To men of vim and energy
There always is a way ;
But if we want to get the Fair
We must not long delay.
Our ladies all are blithe and gay,
4 And beautiful and fair;
Perchance, if asked, they might consent
A bachelor's life to share,
But they will never marry men,
Who are given much to ream;
Who spend their time in sporting round
When they should be at Dome.
They don't intend to marry men,
Who do their duties shirk ;
Who spend their time in idleness
When they should be at work.
They don't inttnd to marry men,'
Who arc bit , lucre machines;
Who smoke and ehew, and fight and bet,
And squander all their meatus.
But they intend to marry men,
Who arc loving, kind, and true;
Who do not tight, or vport, or loaf,
nd who thse"weed' ce-chew.

You need not fear but he will-drive
The traitors to the wall;

ACTION OF LINE ON LAND.
The distinguished chemist Boussingalt,
recently read, before the Wench Acade
my of Eiciences, a very interesting, 'paper
on the employment of lime ill agricul
ture. It has not been published, but M.
Barral gives the following as its sub
stance. We hope the entire paper wilt
soon appear. When it does, the violets
ohithe Comm.kat may look for Win this
department.
Meagre as the following abstract is, we
doubt not that our farmer friends will be

have been, and will join us in the wish

Tl'hy the beat Flour is Cheapest.—Two
dollars extra on the price of a barrel
of flour will secure a much superior
quality. Any one who will devote a
little observation to the subject will no
tice that with poor bread people cat from
to I inure butter than they do with that
which is of superior or extra quality. If
we reckon I more, -it will be seen by the
calculations of the preceding item, that
82 saved in the price of flour involves
$5 62 more expenses for -butter,. or for
other condiments to make the poorer
bread palatable.
Mitki».g.—Let our farmers remember,
that to have their cows milked indiscrim
inately by any of the members of the
family is a loss. Keep a regular milker
for each cow, or one for all, if not too
many. Do not change. Milk as fast 'As
possible. Expefienee proves this to be
the best way. Talk as little as possible
while milking. Let the cow be perfectly
quiet and contented. Milk at regular i
hours; lot those be nearly or quite equi
distant—say twelve hours between each
milking. Then there will be no strain
ing of the bag by over distention. These
are points which good dalrytnot always
observe. Most of all, do not walk your
cows. a great 'distance nor drive them
fast.---Mural World.
.Fizets Worth Bemembering.—lt Is worth
while for all farmers, everywhere, to re
member that thorough culture is better
than three mortgages oa the farm.
That an offensive war against weeds is
five times less expensive than a defensive
one.
That good fences always pay better
than lawsuits with neighbors.
That hay is* great deso cheaper :mule
in the sutunier than purchased in the
winter.
This; a horse who lap his ears back and
looks gghtning when any one approaches
him, fit vicious. Don't buy him.
That scrimping the fetid of fattening
hogs is a waste of grain.
That over-fed fowls won't lay eggs.
That cows should always be milked
regularly and clean.
That it Is the duty of every man to take
sotno good, reliable, entertaining paper,
and pay for it promptly—of tantrae. ' _
