Song Of the oetoganarians.

The following lines composed by Mr.. Al Wills
ofNew jersey, were read before meeting of old
friends in Corinth recently, at which Gen. R. P,
Nicely was present:
We are boys tonight, Though to three score and
ten
Another odd ten has been added of late
We are boys tonight and we think 1t no sin
To turn to the records and alter the date;
Our eyes may be dim, our heads may be white,
But heads sti II green, we are boys tonight
Though tomorrow may bring us some sense of the
truth;
That we are getting old, we have reasons plenty
For thinking tonight Of renewing our youth;
Tomorrow wen owR we three score and
twenty.
Full soon we must traverse the dark Okahuna,
That rolls between us and the regions of light;
We know not how soon we 10 ay hear the subpoe-
ma,
But let US still think we are boys tonight.

EDITORS BULLETIN-As / hardly ever
see anything In your most excellent pa
Ier from this place, / am constrained to
give your readers an idea of our beauti-
full little town and Its location. 1t is a
thriving place on the Tennessee Midland
Railroad, sixty-two miles east of Mem
phis and twenty two miles west of Jack
son. Only short time ago there were
no houses here, except one or two old
time log dwellings. Now there are five
new residences, two dry goods stores, one
family grocery, a black smith shop and a
steam grist mill and cotton gin. We
have no telegraph office, but expect to
have one in short time. Such a rapid
growth in so short a time is phenomenal
This is due to its natural advantages.
The place is surrounded by a country of
fertile soil and picturesque scenery. The
attention of emigrants might well be di-
rected here. Real estate is comparative
ly cheap, our educational facilities are
unsurpassed. Vildo can boast CT the
prettiest girls of any town its size between
the orange orchards of Florida and the
duck ponds of Maine. If any one doubts
this they can be convinced by stepping
in the post Office some Saturday morning
when they come crowding in to get the
good old BULLETIN.
Miss Mamie Emerson has reentered
school at Jackson after pleasant visit to
home folks.
Ms, w. L. Mullen died recently after
a painful illness, and was buried at old
Corley church. Her remains were atten-
ded to their last resting place by large
concourse of friends and relatives. Her
death was relief from suffering, which
she bore however with christian fortitude,
being at all times reconciled to the will of
her Heavenly Father. She leaves six
sons and one daughter to mourn her loss.
Peace to her ashes. VEsPER.

10000 New Farms a Year.

The census of 1880 showed that in every year
since 1870 there had been opened in the United
States on an average upwards of $780, 900 farms
per year. This fact explained the mystery, for
even to some of the manufacturers themselves it
seemed mystery as to where all the new self
binders and imowers went. William Desring 4
Co., of Chicago, alone manufacture between twen-
ty and thirty thousand complete self binders and
as many mowers every year, and with reapers
aud various other implements and attachments
their product runs up to many thousands. OF
course as they stand at the head the product of
works is smaller, but in the aggregate it takes
many new farms to make places for all.

Commits Suicide Because the Fair One Re-

Commits Suicide Because the Fair One Re-
jected His Proposal of Marriage.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.l
WASHINGTON, PA, February 4-Intelli-
gence reached here to-day of the suicide last
Saturday of Ed Gamble, the only son of An
drew Gamble, rich and prosperous farmer of
Somerset township. The cause of the suicide
was ill-requited love. The young man was still
in his teens and fell in love with young
school teacher several years his senior and
great friend of the family's. He proposed to
her. but was rejected, the young lady telling him
that he was too young to get married and that
in few years he would think differently. He
then became morose and for the past three or
four weeks complained of pains in his head.
On Saturday the young lady, with Candles
two sisters. were visiting and when they re-
turned home Ed was missing. As time sped on
and he did not put in an appearance, the girls
began a search about the farm for him. One
OF his sisters upon entering the barn, was hor-
Tifed to see her brothers body dangling to a
Tafter Tie body was cold and stiff, showing
that life had be n extinct several hours. 1t
was cut down and carried to the house of his
grief-sricken parents and yesterday was buried.
The young teacher is almost beside herself
with grief over the sad affair She is lady
greatly respected and said to be quite hand
some. The suicide was exceedingly bright
and until he formed the violent attachment
for the school teacher was always light
hearted lad,
