DHERSBURG OUT OF THE WOODS!
1t is with no ordinary feelings of pleasure
that we to-day publish the fact to our readers
and patrons abroad that on the first of next
month we will be connected with the outer
world, by tri-weekly line ofStage Coaches
Persons wishing to visit our town either on
pleasure or business need not now stay away
on account OF having no conveyance to this
place. Come on people, from every section
Dycrsburg is now out of the woods aud our
county presents more inducements TO
persons looking for good home than
any other in the Western District The
establishment of this stage route is only
the inItiatory step to other and greater i'm
prOvrmentS. Dyersburg is to be born again
and Dyer county will soon spring ahead of
all others. For now. that people can come to
see the fertility and richness of our county.
emigration will come flooding towards us and
the period Is near when business men of all
kinds will settle here. The loom will be heard
all the day long. The sound of the anvil and
the music of the plane will tell, in unmis-
taxable tones. that Dyersburg is improving
rdpidly--lhat its future is indeed fatter-
ing--that it is surrounded by a peo-
pie continually advancing in prosperity.
Dyersburg is Ivy no means one hose town.
We already have many improvements in and
about our corporate limits. We have the
p'ciucst COitt mouse IN the west end or the
State. The public square is surrounded by
various and well ordered and Handsomely
furnished business houses. And we can also
number several large Wholesale grocery

In contemplating the picture so wildly
drawn by the Recorder, we are forcibly re-
minded of the language of the poet:
Westward the stag routes take tneir way;
The first one has already rast
The next shall close the drama with the day
Times noblest empire is-DyerS6ury!

THE Glorious FOURTH-SHuL IT RE CEEE-
DRAFTED The Fourth of July is not now the
remarkably fine institution it was fifteen or
twenty years ago. Then, at its coming the
whole Union shook with the roar of guns.
and the day was darkened by the smoke OF
powder; then. it was a glorious day for Du-
pont aud patriots aud Yankee Doodle was
the prevailing music of the land. But this is
all pretty well played out 1t now requires
the united efforts of five daily papers to get
up mild celebration of the great anniversa-
ry in Nashville, and it wouldn't be more
will he able to do it.
The fact of the business is, there isn't any
money in these things you call Fourth-of-J IN
ly celebrations; aud il you will for "A moment
take this fact into consideration, you will
cease TO be surprised that the American peo-
pie have pretty much quit getting them up.
If some Ingenious somebody, with plenty of
leisure Gu his hands will set to work and
conrive cheap method by which profit may
be blended with such demonstrations he will
at once make niuc-tenths oil Yankeedoodle-
dom ashamed that we havn't got halt doz-
81 FourIhs-ofJuly for every month in the cal
endar.
This state Of things is not creditable 10 ms
as the defendants of the heroes and sberoes
of th" Revolution, and ought 10 have a stop
pa TO il before it runs To seed What is the
use, and we respectfully and revercntially
call upon the Spirit OF 20, if still in the
country, TO testify 10 the sincerity ofIhe ques-
ton, what is the use of having proud birds
of Jovc. flags of free hearts only HON - aud
all that sort Of thing, if we can't afford TO
turn them loose once year aud show the
world that we are proud OF them? Not bit
Of use.
There is ore thing that can't be denied:
Whea the school-boys OF this country shall
no longer tune their whistling lips to the
inspiring melody of Yankee Doodle;' when
the schoolgirls shall cease TO thrill our souls
with the sweet vocal cation of Hail Column
hia;" when Fourth-otJuly orations are no
longer written and read. aud when pictorial
newspapers cease to publish once a year fac
simiils Of the Declaration of Independence
and the autographs thereuuto attached, then
the Union of In, Sc States will start down hill,
with neither hrccching nor bryast-chains,
nor any other retarding Influences, to stay
its downward run 10 the devil.
Let Us have one more celebration here in
Nashville before the whole thing blows out.
Let us buy LucK's fireworks at cost and
carriage, that their patriotic devices may
inspire the youth Of the city with deeper
love Of country, and teach them a new lesson
OF reverence for the times that tried mems
souls, and more particularly for the men
whose souls were tried.

WHERE Is WooD BENsON?-WoOD BENSON,
30 well known TO the frcquenters OF the Gale
ty as a commedian, has opened snug little
theatre on Cedar street. where the popular
play of "Mint Julips and Brandy Snashes for
the crowd is performed every day to de-
dime. No reserved seats.
We trust that BENSON may be as success

in the old That he will be, there can be no
doubt. as he always presents most atIrac-
point upon it, as his liquors and cigars are
of the best quality.

Ef- The types make sad work sometimes.
Sense becomes nonsense occasionally. In
the extracts from speech of Maj. GoFF. at
Minerva College, which we published on
Thursday, the sentence commencing, Like
Moses when he crossed the Red Sea. the

trs," should have been printed: Like Moses
when he crossed the Rcd Sea. the threatened
and expected mutny thai had been impending

quirements of Maj. GoFF were greatly out
ragged by the false reading given. Other er.

rors for which the manuscript mot his) was
more to blame than our proof reader.
