DO Farmers Work too Much :

Il is asserted that they do. We do NOT
believe it, Undoubtedly some do but not
the mass Of farmers. The trouble is, they
do not know when and how to play There
is no systematic recreation. We shall be
told that farming is not like other business
men cannot give time to recreation at will
No, not always az the same hour Of the same
day in the week But what j. recreation ?
Change of employment Il {. not idlcncss.
And the farmers hours ofrccrcotiou should
be- as profitable TO him. oven 10 pccuuury
sense, as bis hours of labor. fla man ceases
TO work with his muscles, he must accomplish
moro with his mind If the brain Is mot nee
tive and ~agacious, systematic aud creative,
the body must do what other brains may
devise. So one may do much work with the
body and not enough with the mind and
rice rerSq.
American farmers do not work too much.
They may work too much in O wrong way
and too little in the right way. But there is
limit 10 mems strength and vhiIc udi-
yiduals may oyerlo with their minds or with
their muscles for time, the aggregate work
they accomplish is never too great Some

Upon several occasions, we have been asked

with him to that effect.
We may loose some patronage by making this
decision. But we hope that none will quit us or

believe that we are doing the same to ourselves
in deciding thus.

Ku-Klux in Humphreys Co.
An indictment Found---anothsr Start

An indictment FOund---AnOthsr Start
ling Development.
Scarcely day elapses that we do not
have new developments of the horrible
criminality of Ku-Kluxism. Only few
days ago "carpet-bag" preacher was de-
tected and exposed at MurfreesbOro, in an
attempt, for private gain, to use the pen
of the Grand Cyclops to compass his wick
ed aims. We now have case from
Humphreys county, little more startling.
A person by the name of Skinner, who
was during the war trusted detective in
this part of the State for Federal authors
titles, sometime since took it into his head
that he would like to run the Bureau
business and also that of Registration,
which dove-tail together very nicely. To
effect this worthy ambition, he wrote in
the name of the Grand Cyolops to the
agent of the Freedmen's Bureau, and to
the Commissioned of Registration in
Humphreys, warning them o. g. eat dam
ger from the Ku-Klux Khan, and advis-
ing them, as a friend, to leave the State
without delay, for safety. These officials,
however, we're not to be caught with chaf,
but went to work to detect the friendly Ku
Klux, whom they found in the person of
Skinner, the Federal detective. Under
the law of the State in relation to the
Khan, they presented the matter to the
grand jury of the county, who promptly
returned a bill of indictment against the
ofiicious Skinner, which is now pending in
the courts of Humphreys.
Skinner has not been arrested, for the
reason that he is in Washington soliciting
office from General Grant on the ground
of his valuable services in detecting dis.
loyalty in Tennessee during the war. Per,
haps General Cooper would do we'll to
send squad of militia after him.

Mrs. Grant.

The Washington correspondent OF
Western journal has this to say of Mrs
General Grant:
Few women ever bore the perilous ties
of sudden fame and fortune with more
hearty happiness or more uuassumine
grace. Is she pretty? No. She is {
roly-poly of little woman, with beauti'
full neck, hands and feet. Her feature;
are well cut. but her eyes are crossed
Some of her friends wished her to have
them Strengthened. "No," she said, "llr
Grant had loved her ever since sire was Il
little girl with her eyes crossed. He had
said that she would not be herself to him
if they were straight. Crooked they
should remain. If he was satisfied, what
mattered it to other people :" H
Mrs. Grant | have paid my respects to-
| found her dignifed, MISUNDERSTANDING
woman, who insisted, in a pleasant way,
upon knowing my name and place of abode
| was satisfied to find that she remember
ed both when / came to take my leave.
These officials and official loins see you as
Adam saw the beasts of the fields and the
fowls of the air as they filed before him
to be named. We are lost individually
in our class. The classes are Of three
sorts-Senators, members of the House,
and rag-tag and Robert-tail. As / neces-
sarily came under the latter class, / am
dismissed as Mr., Pratt, or Mr.. Platt, or
Mr.. Spratt, or any other combination of
sounds that resemble ny name. And 60
ing home, | take grim pleasure in driv-
ing my pen through the official insect,
and sticking him or her in my cabinet of
political curiosities for the amusement of
the pensive public.
Mrs, Grant, however, when | took my
leave, said, in the kindest voice, "Good
day, Col, P.," and, pausing at the door, |
heard her dismiss Jones, Smith and Rob
inson, in the same thoughtful, gentle,
manner, and taking up that trife, | said,
"You are dear good woman, and hope
your life may be happy as it is prosper

death of Mr.. VIM. Rucker, after short illness,
which occurred on Sunday night last, at the res
ideuce of Mrs. Brewster, in this place.
The deceased had been employed by Mr.. Car

seized upon him, which caused his confinement
and in the short space of three days, the grim
monster, death, overlook him.
Mr.. Rucker was respected and highly esteem
ed, as gentleman and citizen, by all who knew
him.
The remains of the deceased were placed in a
metallic case, on Monday, when his brother ar
rived on Tuesday, and conveyed them to his
home near Nashville,
We deeply eondole with the parents and rela
tiveS of the deceased, and hope that their loss is
his eternal gain.
