An Autumn Idyl.

o October! fair October
The month of all the yeari
November's cold and frosty hand
Shall deck thine autumn bier.
The harvest cleaned reminds us all
That we must pass away,
That those who reach the heavenly home,
Here work and watch and pray--
ii The many eoIored landscape scenes,

Portray unnumbered beauties
That in nature may be found.
On distant hill and forest deep
The change creeps slowly
As stars before the God of Day
Each vanish one by one
OOctoberi fair Octoberi
Death bed of the flowers!
With thee Gods floral poetry ends, ~ -
And heaven weepS in showers. 80 = & 7
The foliage changed, the withered leaves
Returning to the earth,
The evenings chill, all bid S seek
The cheerful blazing hearth.
On thy fair bosom, River Charles,
= I}f Il That Winds g PLACID by aLsL - T
Beneath n mellow sky.
In autumn time love to float;
And on my oars rest,
As Phoebus' car sinks slowly down,
Far in the golden Westi
o October! fair October,
Full many pleasant day
In thy balmy Indian summer,
Alone I've strolled away,
To sit beside some crystal stream, ~ -
3 u 4 In Sylvan haunt remote; ~
VI Tosee the ripping water dow, NJ
And watch the wary trout.
Oh, the sunsets of Octoberi
They paint the evening sky
Win varied, rich and colored hues,
That mortal skill defy;
All nature smiles in sadness then,
And Night, her shadows deep
Close-drawn about the silent world,
watches mankind asleep.

I'll. John 3. Hesnan.

John Carmel Heenan, the pugilist died
yesterday October Goth, of consumption
in Wyoming Territory, where he went
several weeks ago for his health. He was
born i'm West Troy, New York, in 1884,
ahdfin 1S49,' when the gold fever was
raging, emigrated with the ''Argonauts"
of that period to California He settled
at the town of Benicia, and his pugilistic
exploits among the rough population
there soon gave him the name, by which
his admirers long knew him, of the
"Benicia Boy. In 1856 his muscle and
pugilistic propensties were. sofully de
veloped that, in company with Mr. James
Cusick. his trainer, he returned to New
York in search of tight. He spent the
next two years, however, rather peace
fully in the employ of the New York
Custom House. In 1858 he entered his
first prize battle with John Morrisey, at
Long Point Island, Canada, and was de-
feated. The great event of his lifeswas
the fight with Tom Sayers, in England
in 1860, for the championship of the
world. The Anerican hero was a lion
among the classes who like prize fights,
= = during his stay in England, though he
continually kept moving on by the
police authorities, and was finally, ar
rested few days previous to the day
fixed for the fight The battle was post
l5T 3poned in consequence, but Heenan was
finally released and the fight took place
1t resulted very unsatisfactory to those
interested in it, the crowd interfering
Sd and breaking down the ropes and the
referee taking to flight In 1861 Heenan
challenged any man in,the world to fight
7C@n for SIC, ,o0QS which j EN- Mace of England
= proposed to accept, but the arrangement
was never perfected. He fought Tom
King in 1868, in England, King defeating
him SO severely that it was believed he
never fully recovered his health He
travelled with shows in England and this

county papers we copy the following:
A young man named Jacob Bear, resi-
dent of Tuscarora township, was in Miff1in
on last Friday with sled and two horses.
In the evening when on his way home he
attempted to cross Tuscarora Greek, about
mile below McCoysville. The ice broke,
and he was drowned, as were also the
horses. Nothing, however, was known of
the distressing circumstance until Saturday
morning, when the body of the unfortunate
man and the dead horses were discovered
among the broken ice
The residence of Mr.. Joseph Towsy, of
Turbett township, was entirely consumed
by fire about clock on Thursday evening
last. 1t is supposed the fire originated
from defective fue. His household goods
were all burned as the fire had gained too
much headway before it was discovered to
remove any goods from the house. The
loss falls heavily upon Mr.. T. as he loses
all his earthly possessions. Let helping
hand be extended toward this unfortunate
and needy family.
About half past five o'clock on Tuesday
evening a sad accident occurred near Pat
terson, whereby William Keppel, one of
the hands engaged in digging away an en-
bankment for the Railroad company, north
OF Jne Town, was instantly KlLeu. III ap-
pears, from what we could learn of this sad
affair, that Keppell was undermining the
embankment and before he was aware of
it the ground fell on him, instantly killing
him. AS the bank fell in he was heard to
give deep groan, and when taken out the
vital spark had fled. He commenced work
ing for the Company about the 9th Of last
December. He came here from Mount
Holly, Pa, where he was previously en-
| ployed He was single man, aged about
80 years and German by birth.
