Some Fierera.

we have given little attention 10
mathematics this week while in a t..,o.
spective mood, and to those who NAV
nave conceived the idea that there is not
much work-we mean manual labor
connected with publishing a country
newspaper, we submit the following
computations: Our newspaper columns
are ~ inches in length. During the year
1871 we have averaged about IL columns
OF matter, set each week, in this Office.
There are, as everybody knows. 50 weeks
IN year. This would make 624 columns
in year or 124SO inches. This again
reduced would be over 63 rods. inst
think of it! 60 rods of type, column
width, all set up, one small type at a
time. Doesn't it almost seem appalling?
And then this 60 rods of type must all be
distributed again, one type at a time.
We have said nothing about our adver-
tisemente, nor the jobwork incident to an
Office like ours; Dor of the press work,
folding or mailing. Those who think
that country editor has nothing to do
but to rest his feet upon his desk, talk
politics and receipt for subscriptions
will probably change their minds after
carefully scrutinizing the above. No, the
country editor is not always carried to
the skies on fowery beds of ease," as the
poet sings. There is about as much hard
work in our business for the remuuera-
ton received as in any profession or
business of which we have any
knowledge.

Our esteemed friend, T. j. Hinshaw,
is naturally inclined to be hospitable,
but when he becomes the victim of mis-
placed confidence he naturally becomes a
tritie indignant. One day last week a
stranger appeared at his gate and he
took him in and fed and lodged him.
In the morning the stranger said he had
no money to pay for his entertainment
and Mr.. Hinshaw, with characteristic
kindness said it was all right The next
day the stranger was in Wa-Keeney and
wore nice broadcloth suit. It was also
ascertained that he had csshed draft at
one of our banks just prior to going to
Mr.. Hinshaw's His name is McElhinney
and he is evidently fraud, but what he
is travelling around the country for is a
mystery.
