VKTILLIAMS& HARVEY have the largest
w stock Of Hardware above Dubuque. AL.
though they have paid enormous Freights, they are
bound to keep the prices of Goods SO that their
customers can do better than to 60 below. Every
one says they sell great deal cheaper than any
store in this section. OF Stoves they have large
stock and at prices that not fail to suit. Give
them call and support a business near home, and
next season you may expect to buy as low as at
Dubuque or elsewhere. They have had expert
ence in the high freight line and they do not mean

Goods in season and give their customers the bene-
fit of Low Freights.

cd a long time for Marriage notice to grace the
columns of the 7ines, but we had no idea our
friends were preparing an sualanche of favors of
this character. In the census recently taken of
our village, it was discovered that the proportion
Of Bacheorsto Maids was As l53 to "a! and SO soon
rs this fact was rum0red about, the battle of Mat
rimony commenced in earnest. We suppose the
contest has no resemblance in History short of the
Roman theft of the Sabine Women. There are
now but EIGHTEEN manageable ladies here, and
the question is who shall secure them!
One hundred and fifty-seven gentlemen of Nc
GSegor are waiting with palpitating hearts to learn
their fate. Unless Gov. Slade commisserates their
situation and dispatches colony Of his New Eng
andsgirls to our market, one hundred and twenty
nins unfortunate males must continue to suffer the
pains OF celibacy. May Heaven in its mercy pro-
vide relief!
We are indebted to several of the pairs for SUBJ

path Of Welded life be as beautiful As youthful
Imagination has pictured it, and when age comes
on, may their estates never revert for want Of
heirs!

IwRIrrE> FOR THE SOUTHERN ENTERPRISE
THE ACHIEVEMENTS 0F MAN, AS
AGENTS OF CIVILIZATION.

The human intellect is vast and ilumina,
ble in power-pre eminenty progressive in
itstendencieS. Under its divine guidance man
has marched up from tire gloomy ignorance
and barbarism of dim antiquity into the un-
c!ouded light of science and civilization. =
Once, he was the rude tenant of dismal cav
erns, finding a scanty subsistence in the vol
untary contributions of the earth now ell
egant cottages and stately mansions mark
the place Of his residence, while richly cul-
tivated fields, and the choicest productions of
distant climes crown, his table with rich
abundance. Once the dark shadows of ig-
norance and superstition beclouded his un.
tutored mind, while the world, with all its
varites Of animal and vegetable life, and all
the secret springs which move the complicat
ed machinery OF the universe, were TO him a
sublime mystery now, by the light of reas-
on and philosophy, lie reads lhe mystic pa
ges Of Natures ponderous volume, ard
scans, with no contracted vision. the secrets
of the past, The present. and the uncertain
future.
If we compare the rude simplicity OF
those remote ages with the enlightened un-
derstanding of the present, we shall be struck
no less with wonder than admiration at the
surprising contrast, and shall naturally be
led to inquire by what mysterious agency
results so sublime have been attained. Let
this, then, for few moments, be the subject
Of our inquiry.
We may state, in general terms, that
man is mainly indebted, for his present ele-
waited position, to the grand achievements Of
the mind-the mind Which distinguishes m an
from the brute and links his destiny indis
solubly with the future. r.. ~ Il. .s.s
In the grand scale Of earthly creations
man was designed to occupy the highes,
rank, and all below were made'more or less
subseryient to his will. The animal, the
mineral, and the vegetable world were
spread out before him inrielrprofusion, and
he felt proudly conscious that they were sub
iect to his control and agents Of his win

A Hint To MoruERs.-As we are now in
the midst OF the season when deb;itatnp
complaints are most prevalent, it may not
be amiss to remind our readers that pre-.
caution will avert much of the suffering TO
which children, and even adults, are liable,
during the Summer months The method is
very simple. Let every head of a family
provide small quantity Of the best gum
arabic, aud have it in readiness to be ad.
ministered on the first symptoms of "a dys-
'enteric attack. The gum should BE- dissolved
in cold water, and the liquor being sweetened,
will nakea pleasant and efficacious demu:
cent, which may be taken or administered
freely in lien Of ordinary water. Another
simple remedy, which has been recommend.
ed, is the sdmixture of wheaton -four with
water to about the consistency of creamy
milk, ,a-
