Ajrrani Cotnrnr.—Mr. Dixon ibtroduced a inll in the
House, on the 24th for the organization of Antrim County, which is now attachod to Grand TraTerse, From
the fact of its having been referred to the Judiciary
Committee instead of (as is usual) the Committee on
Towns and Counties, we infer that it proposed to detach that portion of Grand 'I"reverse which composes
the township of Whitewater. Snch a p^jvisldo would
prove fatal to the bill, for the Legislature will Hot consent to reduce Grand Traverse below fourteen 'full townships and give Antrim over thirty. Our frietxk ask too
much.
'
LKKLANAW COOKTY.—-The House bill to organize
Leclanaw County and define the County of Bctizic, has
passed the Senate without amendment, and is now a law.
The act is to tak? immediate effect W e know uothing
of its provisions, but understand that the new County of
Benzie, (formed oat of a part of the territory which
comprised the nnorganized County of Lcelanaw,). is attached to Grand Traverte. We presume that J*elanaw
will perfect its organization this Spring by electing
County officers and locating the County Beat. There
will be a spirited contest on this question j but we hope
that our Republican friends will not permit It. to override all other consideration*.

About a mile of the track on the Memphis and

Squandered L i r a .
The fisherman wad** In the surge* ;
Ehe t a i l o r sails over the sea ;
T h e soldier steps bra rely t o battle ;
The woodman lays a x e t o tha tree.

The impulse to geneross deeds.
But the sharks drink the blood of the Ash^f ;
The sailor is dropped t o t h e sea j
The soldier lie* cold by his c a n n o n ;
The woodman 1* crushed by h i s tree.
Eaah prodigal l i f t t h a t is wasted
In manly acbleTement unseen,
But lengthens the day of the coward.
A n d strengthen* t h e c r a f t y a n d mean.
The blood of the noblest i s lavished
That the s«l9sb a profit may find ;
But God sees the lives t h a t are squandered,
And.we to his wisdom are blind.
