into the residence OF DR.. R. W. Hazlett
in South Wheeling. They were heard
turning the key Of a door in the rear

given. The robbers beat a hasty re-
treat without having accomplished
their purpose. The key bore marks oil
having been operated on with nippers.
No doubt they were old hands at the

To THE LADIES OF GAINESVILLE /:
We would respectfully call your at
tention to the unseemly appearance
of our City Cemetery, trusting to
your inventive genius to find means
for its improvement, feeling assured
that the last resting place of friends
and loved ones is an object of especial
care to the gentler sex. AS woman
was last at the cross and first at the
sepulchre of the crucified Son of God,
so she is ever ready to beautify and
adorn and bedew with fresh flowing
tears the hillock that marks the last
sad resting place of loved ones gone.
We are not vain enough to dictate
the manner of raising funds to i'm
prove the city of our dead, but would
simply throw out as q suggestion that
the ladies of GAINESVILLE give series
of concerts or some other kind of en-
tertainments conducted upon their
own plan, and we doubt not that an
amount can be raised to make such
Improvements as will redoufd to the
credit of our city and cause the names
of its projectors to be handed down to
posterity with honor more lasting and
brilliant than that of the conquering
hero; yea generations yet unborn
will lisp their names in grateful ac-
cents and bedew, with genuine tears
Of affection, their graves when all
that is mortal shall have moldered to
its original dust. Ladies, will you
make the effort? GAINESVILLE LIBERAL
ity will sustain you. SPERo.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: 1 wish to
call the attention of our City Fathers
to the fact that our city is overrun by
dogs mostly quadruped), and to sug-
gest the propriety of some ordinance
by means of which we may be re-
lieved of the nuisance. We have had
several reported cases of hydrophobia,
and as the time when the dog star is
ascendant will soon be here, public
welfare demands some protection.

I. o. o. F.-SEMI- CENTENNIAL
ANNIvERsARY.-Monday, the Goth
ult., was grand gala day with the
members of the Independent Order
of Odd-Fellows in the city of Nash
vile. The lodges of Murfreesboro,
Lebanon, Columbia, Franklin, Shell.
byville, Clarksyille, Springfield,
Franklin, KY, and Bowling Green,
were well represented, besides repre-
sentatives from various lodges
throughout Middle Tennessee. We
were escorted by committee from
the cars to Masonic Temple, which
capacious building was rendered by
the Masonic Order for use in the ex-
ercises of the day.
The procession was formed at one
O'Clock, headed by the Odd-Fellows'
cornet band, and fuckers silver band
in the center, and marched through
the principal streets of the city. The
procession was fully mile in length,
and attracted the admiration OF
throngs of spectators who were along
the line Of every street, whilst from
the windows and doors of the private
and public buildings, peered the
bright and smiling faces of Nash
ville's fair daughters.
At about half past three o'clock the
procession returned to the hall, where
after music, singing and prayer, Rev.
Bro. Baird delivered an able and elo-
quent address.
AT eight o'clock in the evening the
members of the Order, with their
families and friends, assembled in the
hall, where rooms were arranged for
all to enjoy themselves as they desir-
ed. Dancing, music and social con-
verse ruled the hour, and about eleven
O'Clock supper was announced. 1t
was indeed the most elegant banquet
we ever beheld, and of which some
1000 persons partook.
The whole affair was conducted in
the most orderly style, and the broth
erhood of Nashville spared neither
pains nor expense to make their WIS.,
iting brethren enjoy themselves to
the fullest extent. This Semi-Cen-
tennial Anniversary will long be re-
membered by those present, and we
hope much good may result from it
to our time-honored order.

REV. ALPHEUs MIzELL.-On last
Thursday this gentleman left our city
to take up his residence in Edgefield.
We much regret to lose him as citi-
zen, and we cordially commend him
to the good people Of Edgefield as a
gentleman In every sense of the word,
and a christian, not only by profess
sion, but in fact. AS preacher, Mr..
Mizell has few superiors in the Ten
nessee Conference. He will continue
his agency for the Tennessee Orphan
Asylum and we can not too strongly
urge the claims of this institution
upon the charities of the people OF
this State. This asylum is intended
for the children of the noble Tennes-
see soldiers who lost their lives in
defense of what they at least believed
to be right. When these brave men
left home, in many instances, they
were assured that their families should
be provided for. To redeem that
promise, as well as from a sense OF
duty, the Tennessee Orphan Asylum
was established, and so far the lady
managers have met with unparalel-
led success. But the people must not
relax their energies in its behalf
They must continue to contribute To
this noble cause. Byalittle economy
every man, woman and child in the
community could give something to
it every month and never miss it,
This ought to be done.
We notice in our exchanges that q
Grand Tournament will be held at the
grounds of the Wilson County Agri-
cultural and Mechanical Association
mt Lebanon, in this State, on Satur-
day, May 22d, the entire proceeds OF
which will be appropriated to the
benefit of this asylum. The Officers
of the tournament are Gen. A. T.
Stewart, President; James III. Brit
ton, Treasurer, and j. j. Wheeler
Secretary. This is praiseworthy
movement on the part of the citizens
of Wilson county, and we hope to see
their example initiated in other To-
calities.
