Orin Smith met with quite a sad ac cident one. day last week. While loading baled hay, he slipped and fell striking on the sleigh tongue, and breaking one of his ribs and doing other internal injur ies, but he is now doing as well as can be expected under the circumstan ces. There has been a number of deaths in our vicinity during the last wek. Jlut as the Km'o.sitoi: always gives an obituary of all deaths in its vicin ity we will leave the names to appear in the proper column, but those that are called to mourn the lots of loved ones have our sincere sympathy.

Our enjoyment consists in pursuit. not i.i attainment. Attainment is with us, for the most part, the grave of pleasure. Had w e no object to excite fresh activity and impel us to new toils human life would quickly stagnate in melancholy indifference. An exchange tells that in canvassing for subscriptions its solicitor comes across quite a number of persons who "get more papers than I can read now" and do not want a local paper as long as I can borrow it from a neighbor. These fellows always take a "Family Journal," published in New York or elsewhere, containing thrilling and blood-curdling romances that make the young readers despise home and yearn for the day they can break away and go out Into the far west and become bad men and die with their boots on.

Yolapnk, the new universal language first heard of in 1SH1, which is so favor ably received by all who examine it. is the result of twenty years research on the part of its inventor, J. M. Schleyei of Constance, who has studied fifty languages, twenty-eight of which he speaks and writes. Volapuk adapts the best features of these languages and discards all difficulties, the grea: merit lying in the simplicity, wl.i i. causes it to be very quickly learned, au. to be especially adapted to the needs ol trade between different n.itions. It ha. !io artificial genders, but onedeclensioi, for all nouns and pronouns, a siugh conjugation and no irregular verbs oi comparisons. The roots of the wonb have been borrowed from all the Furo pean languages, especially the Knglisi. The adjectives, adverbs and verbs a; regularly formed from thesubstautivi and have invariably the same termina tion.
