On last Monday evening as Frank Cou ghed and Willie StOwart were returning home from the postofiice, Frank Carrying a double barrel shot gun, they ' cfimmenced phiyllig on the road, sod by soino means the right barrel was discharged, ths contents entering the right thigh of young Stewart Fortunately, however, he had a uiagaine in his coat pocket which was folded in such a manner that the charge passed through several thicknesses of the book aud through his coat and pants pocket, so that the force of the charge was pretty well spent, fnnr nf the shot however entering the thigh causing a painful though it" is thought not a danger ous wound, but it Was a pretty rinse call. Albany Herald. The Moukrn Nnwsr-APKR. Bill Nye de scribes the Modern Newspaper thusly: The Newspaper of to-day is library. It is an encyclopedia, a poem, a biography, a his tory, a prophecy, a director, time table, a romance! a cook book, a guide, a horoscope, an art critic, a political resume, a ground plan of the civilized world, a low-priced mul turn in parvo. It is a se.rmon, a song, a cir cus, an obitrmry, a picnic, a ship' wreck, a symphony iu solid brevier, a medley of life and death,' grand aggregation of man's glory and his shame. It is, in short, a bird's eye view of all the magnanimnity aud and meanness, the joys aud griefs, the births and deaths, the pride and poverty of the world, and all for three dollars a year in advance. We will here state that the Guard will be furnished for 2.50 per year1. A Row. Last Saturday about midnight John Roberts and John Ross had a row on Willamette street near Goldsmith's store.

I expected as soon as school closed for a vaciJun to publish a list of the pupils of my det, rfrtment who stood foremost in their studies, but for ce. tain reason I have con cluded net to do art. It is customary with some school in tha East tn publish, from time to time, a statement of thi kind known as a 'roll of honor." I have often conscientiously doiiUed the advisableness of such a plan for reasons, perhaps, not necessary to state here. H iwever, I may conclude to publish ch a list in! the future. In making out the standing of my pupils I rank deportment on an equality with mathematics and other studies; this puts a pupil, who is naturally bright but disposed to be mischievous or vicious, on his good be havior in order to save his standing. So far as attendance and punctuality are concerned the following named were neither tardy nor absent during the term: Wilton Martin, John" Ma dura, Joseph Liles, J Weider, Chester Osburn, Mairgie Whipple, Ellen Tuter, Mary Drake and Susie Ritchie.

Mr J A Pll'nej , of Jnnction precinct, called at this office but Wednesday afternoon, aud gave the editor information concerning the prevalence of the Hessian Fly in the fields of Lans county. He had with him some last years stuhbl pulled from a field owned by Mr Samuel Meek. By cutting th joint on each stubble th fly was plainly visible. Mr P informs us that be had examined th stubble In at least fifty different fields and found the fly prevalent in all of them, therefore he is of the opinion that th Held in Lans county a. generally thus afflicted. He Is of th further opinion that the light yield of wheat of last year was caused by the ravages of these in sects. W herewith give full description ' the Insect, taken from Chamber' Encyclope dia: Hessian Flv-Th tan in laid nn tha vniidu blade of the wheat, alter the coining up of the plant in the fall, and also in th spring. lhaeiriMi &ni K.iiift l.rj) u.:k . - -oo- - "" -w VI III. II 1 'lift , "1.11 . diameter of oaly 4-1(100 of an inch, of pale reo. coior, ana natch in (our or live days if the weather be warm. The larvea, as soon as hatched, descends between tha leaf and stalk till they reach a joint, just below the surface of the Ki-otiod, at that stage of the plant's growth. Her they undergo their metamor phones, being nourished by sucking th juice of th plant All th transformations mav ra. quire several months, sometime a year, being often retarded by circumstances. It need dui very rem at these Insects to cause the plant to wittier and perish. The larvae attain their full Mm Id five or six weeks, whan tha are 1-7 of an Inch long, and have the appear ance of flax seed. In April and May the fly is releared and soon betrins to lav itji tirira nn the young wheat blades of both autumn and spring sowing. The eggs attain the pupa state (flaxseed appearance) in June and July, the fly appearing in the autumn tn lav the eggs for the next spring brood. Many of these do not come to maturity till after harvest, remaining for time in th stubble in tha Duna atata. The Hessian fly is said to have been first seen in ini country on Itaten Island in 1776 near Y Sir William Howe disembarked the lan soldiers under his command: and from this circumstance received its name. Tha crogrej of the insect seems to hsva been about 20 mile in a year, miuraifng in swarms. It is a difficult pest toget ridTof, and th eradica tion requires concert nf action among the far' mers. If the straw contain any insect in tm pupa state it should be buined. Tha etuhhla should be cut quite long so as to give as much neat as possible When it is burned. Then plowing, and careful harrnwimr and eollectins of th roots as far a4 practicable should follow. wuu urying anu uuruing. Lost Valley Items. December 25, 1885.
