! "Hard Times." Alluding to the loud and continued complaints of "hard times" among farmers, from which one might infer that the altnshoti.se stared him in the face, the Lafayette Courier says: "We overheard a well-to-do farmer from the Wen, remark this morning, that he never knew times so hard. Eighteen years ago this same farmer was wt rking for ten dolkrs a month otr the same farm lie now owns, ami is to-day worth 30,000. He has abundance of stock, ami grain enough to feed the people of this city, during an ordinary sieg-. He has, besides this, a handsome amount to his credit in bank, and we will take his cheek for 300, and pay every dollar that he owes. We only cite this case, as one of the many farmers, who have, by their industry, grown rich, yet they complain of hard times. We also mention the matter to show

! that their complaitiings are not I founded in fact, and that there is no j cause of complaint, as they do not i produce a single article which they c'i va '! u,' 0:1 "0t "i,on t0 sc" n '.IK? ; hut

on the contrary, tin ir productions bring th.; ready cash, and that, too, at a fair price. The fact is, this complaining has become chronic with s-uiic of them, and is entirely without cause. As a class, they are

He had been bribed to commit murder by one John Miller, who formerly owned and lived on the farm now owned byO. D.

An accident of a horrible nafarft

occurred on the farm of Mr. Houston,

near the village oi Wyton, Canada, on Saturday aft eraoon last, resulting in tlie death by drowning, of au aged well digger naiccd William Robbins. The well on the premiscB becutne foul, and several paTtiea were applied to to cleanse it; but each one, im examination, refused, as from the construction of the well, the process did not seem 3fe. It was an old fashioned well, thirty feet deep, and walled up with looBe boulders. Robbins undertook the jab without fear, as ho had beou a well diggt f of some thirty years cxjierk'tice, and expressed uo fears for liis safety. The water was pumped out and he descended. About raidway was a piece of log running across the well and blocking up the way. Tbis ho found necessarv to remove. But no sooner haf the. tackle been applind, and the wood started, than the s tines caved in on. all sides burying hi n beneath them. The block in some r.eatsnrfc cheeked the descent, or else the unfortunate, man must have been crusliec. todeath immediately, ' ' V T But he was only sprrcd to meet a.
