their bearing, and the way they order

all sorts of little scraps from the news

as he can. 1t is very fatiguing. 1t is

he only gets only $1,s00 a year.: With

thousands and thousands of dollars in

The absence, since the war, of "old re-
liable" Hill's Almanac, has been regretted
year after year by every family in Middle
Tennessee. Actually some folks used to
swear by it. They demand its re-publica-
ton. Mr.. Hill, as one of the proPrietors
of the LINCOLN COUNTY News, has deter
mined to reproduce it. Not in the regu-
lar form, but through the columns of that
paper. He now proposes for the year 1868
to insert the Calendar pages of the Alma
nae, monthly, in the News giving the
usual Astronomical Calculations, Remarka-
bic Events, &c, just as they used to ap-
pear in the Almanac.
The price of the News is only 50 year,

coMMUEICATIONs

MEssRs. EDITORS In bidding adieu to
my friends in Pulaski, I feel that 1 can not
better discharge some portion Of the obi
CATION I am under to them, for 50 many
kind favors shown myself and family since
our soiourn here, than by commencing the
modest worth of the excellent lady with
whom I have been associated in teaching
for near two years, and suggesting her as
one to whose beneficial influence and in
struction they may, with confidence entrust
the education of their children.
The high character which she has main
tanned as teacher, furnishes an ample
guarantee of her ability to perform the du-
ties incident TO her position, with the high
est credit to herself, and satisfaction to her
patrons, while in point of requirements,
temper and bearing she IS eminently well
qualified to discharge the functions of the
profession Ever aiming, not at a respect
able mediocrity, but at the highest posi-
bic proficiency; she will ever be the ex-
ample of her pupils teaching those COM
mitted 20 her care to work and to think, and
imparling vigor with learning, which con
stitute real advance. She viii study the
character and disposition of her pupils be
uniform, consistent, firm and kind, and
show the child that she has its true inter
est at heart Her instruction will ever
embrace morals as we'll as intellect, aud in
/ a school conducted on such principles tht
pupils will be trained in the habits of ODE
dience, reverence, and truthfulness, anC
t be convinced that these are lovely within
themselves, by which the great object 0
education will be attained.
