MOVEMENTS OF POPULATION.


The announcement that . large
colony of Vermonters has recently
gone out to Dakota is q reminder
that New England still continues to
settle the western country.
1t is always interesting to trace
the movements of population in Il
growing country. In the United
States, as a matter of course, the
original drift was necessarily west
ward, as the first settlements we've
along the Atlantic sea- board, and
the tide has seemed to gain force as
it swept across the land. Even in the

OBITUARY.--Mary Ann, daughter
of Levi and Matilda Pitsnogle, died
near Bedington Springs, this State.
Nov. Ii, 1884. She was a consistent
member Of the Methodist Church,
lived an honest upright life, and died
in the hope Of the resurrection of the
just. A short time before death, she
babe her friends farewell, as though
she were going upon journey, and
gave ample evidence Of her willing
ness to depart and be with Christ.
When the summons came, it found her
Willing, waiting for the hour.
When the monster death around her
Threw his awful death-like power.
Then her Saviour watched beside her.
Gave her grace to meet the hour,
And no harm could now betide her.
For she trusted in his power.
Then the angels bore her spirit
To the God of light and life
To the world tina. saints Inherit
Land where never cometh strife.
We have missed thee, sister dearest;
Mss thee through the live-long day
Yet the friends we deem the nearest,
God sees fit to call away.
Here on earth no more well meet thee;
Then dear sister Fare thee well
Till at last in Heaven wen greet thee,
There with God and thee to dwell.

sMoKErowH ITEMS.

Excellence in conversation depends,
in great measure, on the attachments,
which one has made; if therefore
education is neglected conversation
will become trifing; if perverted,
corrupting.
From the following you will have
an idea how proficient some of the
persons in this section are In handling
a club. Mr.. Jacob Sprinkle killed q
hawk that measured 4 feet from tip
to tip with q club last Wednesday eve.
We understand that Mr.. G. III.
Sprinkle will bore six inch hole into
the earth to the wonderful depth of
1870 feet it is not known by any
one, what his object is in doing SO,
only to himself. The immense auger
is to be furnished by a reliable firm
and we believe has been ordered. 1t
will be run by water power. The
above was handed in by response
BILE person and we know it to be cor
rect.
Miss Viola Stonebraker, of Freder-
lex, Md, who has been visiting her
sister, Mrs. Witmore, returned home
very much pleased with her visit.
Miss Rebecca Beard, who resides
near Bedington, is visiting friends in
our midst.
We have some splendid marksmen
incur community, for there is young
man who killed ten crows and scared
two to death, and it was the first time
he ever shot off a gun; how is that
for high? ORION.
