Monroe, F.R.W. 5, April 9—Very little farm work has been done. The farmers have not been able to catch the ground dry enough. If the wind blows and the sun shines a little now, there will be some hustling.

Mr. George Hart is building a nice cottage on his place where the old house was burned some time ago.
The writer is very sorry to say that his old friend, Mr. Stewart Spittle, who has been confined to his home for nearly two months, is not improving any at this time.
