FINE SPECIMENS OF WoRK-A day or two
since we called in at the jewelry store of
| d. J. Wells & Co, and saw some beautiful
! pieces of Masonic jewels that had been
manufactured there for one of the Lodges
in Fayette county, and were told that the
articles referred to had been made from
pure metals at less than t,co thirds of the
price that +. H. Clark & Co, of Memphis
had proposed to furnish them. In connec-
ton with this, we will state for the benefit
of those who desire to PatrOnize home in
dustry, home honesty, and home talent and
home skill, that D. l. Wells q Co. are fully
prepared and abundantIy able to fill all or
ders usually complied with by the best city
jewelry and engraving establishments.

Gray, the talented aud highly esteemed
Principal of the Bolivar Female Academy,

excellent institution of learning. The high
and holy duties incumbent upon him as a
teacher of Holy Writ are such as to engage
his entire time, and precludes all miner en-
gagements We have not been appraised Of
the name of the person who is to succeed
the reverend gentleman who retires at the
close Of the present session, though of one
thing we do feel. assured, and that is, thai
it will be fortunate for this community if ;
peer of the present Principal can be en-
gagged to take charge of the Academy.
UNNEoEssARY OFFENsE-Persons, whose
peculiar views allow them to couple often
siye remarks with the name of one VIII
should always be spoken of with due res
pect and reverence, often wound the feel
f ings and keen seusibilities of those VIII
cannot, under the circumstances, make
reply. We have often been requested t
refer to the practice referred to, and do s
r now at the request ofone who knows whereo
he speaks. Hoping this win answer all pun
poses, we dismiss the subject.
