" What in the world are all those stakes for, setting up so straight and curious, all in a row there'" asked one of the older, out of town boys. "• Those stakes ? Why they arc to show where we arc to have a new handsome street from the new State House right across the liranch. With a rtnc elegant new bridge, " replied a village lioy, j)ricking up with jU'ide at the thought. '' A street I" rejoined the other, '' well, 1 wonder where they expect to find houses to put upon it? It appears to me you... village folks are trying to grow grqnd all at once. When you get the new State House up I expect we shan't be able to touch you with a rod pole. " This natural little bout of words among the iioys of that time, showed two things better than a i>age of elucidation : — first, tlu- extent of the important ('hanges and improvements in contempla- tion for the village, and second, the starting points of the simul- taneous growth of that village pride and country jealousy, which, probably, are ever in a greater or less degree to be found, wherever villages exist, to crow and atVcct superiority, and coun- try towns to build up and sustain them.
