The ass-t ute young man who professes to
edit the Argus, comes about as near the truth
as is possible for him to do, in the following
item in its last issue:
"It would 1m: more agreeable to what few
people happen to read the daily, if it did not
"slobber" over certain people quite so much.
It has already selected the next sheriff'and
county officers, ami recognizes in our jolly
and good-looking sheriff, am exact likeness of
Gov. Hartranft. Now we do not desire to
doubt the truthfulness of this statement,
but having seen the late Governor, we fail
to tumble. Taffy is sweet, but it is nauseating
also. And then Fete Dean is a much hand
somer man than Hartranft."
The "green-eyed monster" always finds an
easy prey in the susceptible young gentleman
whose name appears as editor of the Argus
But we beg to assure both him and the fellow
who suggested the above item, that the
•'daily" is entirely srtistied with the number
of readers It has, and we are certain all of
them are intelligent enough to recognize in
the above pure fabrication, not even the sem
blance of truth. We propose, hereafter, as
heretofore, to select our own words and
phrases in such local items as appear in the
REVIEW, regardless of whether they suit
the fastidious taste of the Argus , or the envy
of unscrupulous candidates, who make that
journal the vehicle for fulminating their
anathamas against those who do not sympa
thize with their selfish ambition.

WILL.
WARREN CENTER, March 9,1880.
Not having seen anything from Warren of
late, I will just send a few items respecting
the dark cloud hovering o'er us at present:
Sickness and death seem to be the all pre
vailing topic, otherwise we are quiet as usual.
That terrible scourge—scarlet fever—has
found its way into the eastern part of our
township, and one or two cases have reached
the Center, making desolate many homes.
Two Saturdays in succession there were two
funerals at the Center. The first one, Mr.
MALSAM'S, bore away their babe, to lie be
side its brother, who went but a year before,
auu Mr. G. GOWAN'S laid their only child to
rest last Saturday. Mr. J. BOWEN and Mrs.
BAILEY each buried an only child—scarcely a
year ago Mrs. B. was widowed, and now
childless.
God comfort the widow,
Who mourns for her son;
His loved ones He chastens,
That his will may be done.
Then look to Ilim, mother,
"Though a mother no more,"
For grace to sustain
Till you reach the blest shore,
Where with Christ and his angels
No longer you'll weep.
But with others redeemed
Cast your crown at his feet.
As the mother of old
Sought the prophet to tell,
May you yet, feel to say,
It is well, it is well.
Monday Miss 11. PITCHER was buried, hav
ing been an invalid for the past six years—
her's being the eighth funeral in the seven

DLETON, while his twin brother is wrestling
with the same disease, and his mother is not
able to leave her room.
Mrs. B. CORNELL and Mrs. J. WIIALRN

ing incurable diseases of long standing.
Thus, all ages seem stricken down, and
sudden death and lingering disease alike,
bearing home their sheaves.
