Ed. JoURNAL.-At this late date We viii
again endeavor to note few items, that may
prove interesting. BY our long silence, you
may have been led to suppose, that your cor
respondent belonged to the class Of hibor-
mating animals, but be assured, VIC consider
life too active to enter such reclusion, though
we are acquainted with persons, who do see
mingly enjoy themselves in idleness; such, we
might with propriety, regard as stimulating
the class retired, but
life is earnest, life is real"
And he who would reap the benefits of life,
must improve the time to the best advantage.
But we have been depressing. Knowing, that
you only desire ''items of interest" it is at
present difficult to furnish them; as there
seems to bo great dearth in ''that hne." Dur
ing the short sleighing period, of a week ago,
our village was all life. Business was greatly
improved, the farmers in the vacinity being
busily occupied in getting their climber" to
the saw mill. The snow soon disappeared,
however, and in its stead there has been substi-
tuted ."Aoods of rain," and oceans of mud"
not altogether desirable at this time, when
Jack Frost reiges supreme and furnishes his
usual winter sports.
For the past three days it has been raining
almost incessently, which has resulted in
general 'thaw out" The low grounds are
ale all fOoded-many places resembling mini
ture lakes. The waters of Mudcreek have
over flowed its banks, resulting in great dam
age, carrying away timber, fences aud brid-
ges, the waters in the creek, have not for many
years been known to have exceeded their pre-
SAINT hight. Jam
