SOME WoRK.-Sam Ryan, of the Apple
ton Crescent, is one of the most indefatiga-
BILE and hardest workers of the editorial
fraternity in this State. Aside from his
duties as County Judge, and jealous and
careful attention to editorial labor, he is
devoting all the time possible to the pro-
motion of the interests of Odd Fellowship,
in his capacity of Grand Master of the
State. His labors in this connection pre-
clude him from holding any position in or
working at present for the Good Templars
organization, in~which he formerly did
good service. 1t is in large measure ow-
ing to his efforts that Odd Fellowship is so
rapidly increasing and prospecting in Wis
eonsin. Visitation of lodges must con-
sumo one-third his time, and all this added
to other duties makes him hard worked
man. He seems to stand the pressure

quest on the body of Alex. Burns, of
West Blue Mounds, the particulars of the
accident from which he died on the 9th
inst. The deceased went on the 9th of
September to Black Earth with load of
wheat. On his return, when about two
miles out, he fell from his wagon the for
ward wheel.passing over his bowels, the
hind wheel catching him and showing him
along some distance. One of his neigh.
bors, Mr.. Deckenhard, was with him and
assisted him to his wagon, but having
ridden some two miles he had to- be left at
farm house. During the night the de-
ceased went out doors and in the morning
was found dead near by. He leaves wife
and two children, who have the sympathy
of all in their bereavement.

BUNcoMBE OR BUNKUM.-O Origin Of the
Phrase.-By Webster's Dictionary we
learn that the phrase originated near the
close of the debate on the famous Mis-
souri, Question" in the 18th Congress.
1t was then used by Felix Walker-a
maiue old mountaineer, who resided in
Haywood, the most western county Of
North Carolina, near the border Of the adj
joining county Of Bunconsbe, which formed
part of his district. The old man rose to
speak while the House was impatlently
calling for the Question: and several
members gathered round him, begging
him 70 desist. He persevered, however,
declaring that the people of his district
expected it, and that he was bound to
F" make speech for Buncom6e."

Teachers Institute.

We hope that the teachers and the
friends of education generally in this coun-
ty will make it point to attend the Teach
ers' Institute which convenes at Mineral
Point on Monday, October 4th.. Mr. A.J
Craig, State Superintendent, and Prof.
Allen will be present, and Mr.. Craig will
deliver public lecture on Thursday eve
ming, the 18th. Mr.. j. Hanscom will be
present, and assist in conducting the ex-

made to make this one of the most success

CHANeE.-In all material things there is
constant change Nothing but principles
are permanent. Man cometh forth as
flower and is cut down. It is remarkable
of the great change that all must undergo
that it may take place at any time. Inc
race is not always to the swift nor the bat
tie to the strong. So also is it true that
no one has lease of life. The grim mes
senger summons alike the young and the
old. In view of the changes that are al
ways transporting, and of the great one
that may take place at any time, should
we not remember that ha h"+
"Not enjoyment and not sorrow
Is our destined end or way,
But to live that each tomorrow
Find us farther than to-day .?
\ L.,
In Nature, from which we wander too
far, and whose teachings are but little
needed, we see continual change, pleas
ant in all its phases. The seasons, with
their varied charms, chase each other with
strengthening succession. While we
yet admire the beauties of the.springing
grass and budding flowers we see waving
fields of grain that in moment are golden
with the glory of the harvest time. Then
the frost gives the dearest beauty to the
forest, robing it in the fairest colors, and
soon the boughs bend beneath a weight
of snow which covers all the landscape
as charity covereth multitude Of SINS.
We have.written all this lingo for the sake
of using the beautiful quotation, SO appro-
prately descriptive of the Autumn time
"Leaf by leaf the roses fall,
Drop by drop the springs run dry,
One by one, beyond recall,
Summer roses droop and die"
But as it doesn't seem likely to be apt,
without filling column, we give it, and
so close our autumnal reverie.
