Females never spend week wages

WINTER MANAGEMENT or Flo


Coloman's Rural World says
"There IS perhaps no season OF the
year when western hogs are so badly
managed as in the winter. 1t is no
uncommon mistake for western farms
ers to suppose that, because hog is
hog, he can stand any kind Of treat
ment, and yet yield large profit to
his owner. 1t is no uncommon thing
for the poor things to be turned into
the street or road to shift for them
selves, without particle of bedding
or shelter, except the frozen ground
IN some fence corner, and u very
small allowance Of feed carlessly
thrown in the mud, under the i'm
preston that is pleasure, or at least
no displeasure, for dirty hog to be
obliged to root in the cold mud up To
his eyes for his scanty meal. Is this
reasonable ? Think Of it, farmers,
and il reason does not satisfy you,
try taking your breakfast from six to
eight inches below the surface Of the
mud some cold morning, and try
sleeping on the ground in the fence
corner some night, with the thermom
eter below zero | presume you will
not want to repeat either export
ment.

ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room it is generally the custom, as every
one knows, to have several championspresent to
entertain the public FOR FEW HOURS but on
account of so much suffering among our people,
we thought proper 10 give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that benefit, which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again, as it is sometimes the custom of giving
premiums, such as watches, etc, and having
proof of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy, we have therefore concluded to
Nashville. from the lst day of April. 1867. up TO
October LIST, 1867, (six months,) which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor of Nash
vile. We hope that the amateur billiard play
ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain it. T
