takes his departure next Monday for Me-
Minnvlle, Tenn, where be has in connec-
ton with his father, purchased large farm
and designs to engage in agricultural pur.
suits. We know that nine>tenths Of the
people Of Buchanan County will join US in
expressions Of sincere regret that Mr.. Loom.
is is going from Us. In all his relations to
this community, whether as man. . ciii>
zen, or editor, he leaves record without .

been the rule Of his conduct; ~ . citizen,
his large hearted liberality has often gone
beyond his means, and involved him III sac
ri6ces which however grevious to be borne,
have never bssn bsgsudged. Al an editor,
he has most assiduously and unsel6shly Ia
bored to promote the best interests Of Bus
chanan County, and no man can say truly
that the hope or promise Of gain on the one
baud. or Intimidation on the other, have ever
sserved him from The direct line Of his
duty. With bis high principle, his conscien>
tons performance Of duty, asd his enthusi>
sstic devotion 10 the right, he cannot fail to
take an en6uential position in asy commu>

Of society 10 hi sew hons in such manner
as will rebound TO its development and
prosperity. He will leave Buchanan Coun~
