immigration.

day a letter from a Pennsylvania
looking to immigration to this and
ether States, and we would call the
attention of our citizens again to
this subject.
1t has two aspects, which, GER
tainly will easily suggest them
selves to our people, and we wish
now to press the matter upon their
attention-lst, the benefit 10 the
immigrant; End, the benefit to the
community
The benefits to immigrants to
this county are
1st. A soil varying from very
rich to very poor, and suited for
the greatest variety of productions
and fruits. The lands which are
called poor, are not so thin in
themselves, as they are compared
with rich river bottom lands. And
the poorer lands, too, are said to
be unexcelled for fruit and grapes
by any lands in the United States.
End. As consequence to the
above, the immigrant can be ac-
commodated with land at $50 or
$50 per acre, and land ranging
down to SIS per acre or even lower
sometimes.
3rd. We have all kinds of tim
Der, for building, fencing, firewood,
&c. Heavily timbered land may be
found in five miles of Fayetteville.
4th. There is no county better
watered on the globe than this
Our river Elk is not navigable, but
1t affords a vast and cheap power
for machinery. Besides there are
numerous creeks and branches over
the whole county, affording water
for stock and machinery. One of
our best cotton mills is on a spring
branch, and has an abundance of
power.
9th. AS a means Of transporting
our produce, we have Branch
Railroad, connecting with the n. d
c. R. R. at Decherd, giving a north
ern or southern market as we may
desire.
9th. We have as quiet and or
derby community as can be found
in the United States, North or
South. And we are willing for
this statement to be tested by any
honest man that will come and re-
main with us one qceeh, and mix
freely with our people and see for
himself. We know we have been
traduced and slandered time and |
again, but we will just ask those
seeking homes, to come and gice as
a fair trial and then ans,oer the
charge themselves. Could we ask |
less 2
The benefits to be derived by
ourselves are apparent to every |
thinking man. We need the la
Dor in our fields, we need the in
crease in our population, and its
attendant Incentives to exertion |
and improvement; we need the /!
acquaintance with different syS |
TENS of labor, and different pro-
ductiOns, that a colony from an
other section might bring among
as. Weneed also the increased pro-
auctions, the activity in the mar
ket, the increase of business, and
the better price of our lands. We
have referred to these things be.
fore, however, and endeavored to
impress them upon our people,
We hope some of our people will
answer the letter of our Pennsylva-
MAN, and try to induce immigra-
ton to our county.

LETTER FROM EUROPE.

Editors Journal:
My last letter was closed on the

WE regret to see the display of
feeling that has been manifested in
the City Council in the last two or
three meetings, on the subject of side
walks. 1t seems to US that more feel
ing and passion has been brought to
bear upon the subject than sound dis
erection and cool judgment. We are
at loss to account for this. We can
see nothing peculiar about ordering
or rejecting a plank or brick side
walk that ought to arouse unpleasant
or angry feelings. Surely our couu-
cilmen, if they would make the effort,
could harmonic on q policy to be
pursued that would be agreeable to
themselves and satisfactory to their
constituents. But this cannot be done
so long as spirit of spitefulness is
felt or displayed. Councilmen ought
never to take the position with regard
to each other. IF you don't vote for
everything ! want will vote against
everything you desire" This at once
arouses a spirit of antagonism that is
destructive to all legislation in which
the city is interested. Nor, on the
other hand, should any Councilman
have so much pride of opinion as to
think it derogatory to his dignity to
back down from a position he has
taken, when he ascertains that that
position is not in harmony with the
wishes of large majority of his as
sociates and constituents.
The gentlemen composing the pres
ent council were elected because the
people had confidence in their sa-
gaeity and integrity. They cannot
afford to forfeit this good opinion
of the people by displays of ILL
temper that would do diseredit to q
debating society of half-grown boys.
Let your moderation be known to
all men," is sacred command
which We especially commend to our
City Fathers, because they have eYi-
IDENTIFY forgotten that other proverb,
to the effect that when tho Fathers
indulge in sour grapes. the chill
dren's teeth are set on edge"

DON'T Do 1t.


In the Council proceedings of Mon
day last we find the following para
graph:
"A communication was received
from Francis III. Groves and NJ. a.
Smith. proposing to hire the city lamp
-posts for advertising purposes at 500
per year, the parties proposing to put
M a specimen for examination by the
Council"
We cannot think that the Council
seriously contemplate hiring out the
city lamp posts to be disfgured with
advertisements of any description.
No advertisement of any value can be
placed on a lamp post without making
it present an awkward and disagree
able appearance. The amount OF
money which it is proposed to pay the
citv for thus eneumbering the posts
Is too small to be worth considering
Should the city consent thus to have the
nosts epeunbered, financial shrewd-
ness. and Justice to other bill posters,
demand that advertisements be IN
serted in the city papers for sealed
proposals to rent out the lamp posts
for advertising purposes, and then
lei the posts be awarded to the high
est bidder. LIZ the experiment was
successful perhaps it would be we'll
to advertise for bids for the use OF
the walls of the school houses and
engine houses aud other city build
ings for similar purposes. We are
confident parties in the city could be
found who would pay handsomely fol
the exclusive use of these build
ings. and net a fair profit By sub
letting them to travelling men
ageries and wandering minstre
troupes. Then what a fine oppor
tunity the magnificent show bill
would offer the children for studyin
natural history, the science of ethnol
ogy, and admiring the beauties Q
e1uestrianism. IF Evansville finance
are at so low an ebb that she mus
rent out her street lamp posts for ad
vertising purposes, we think tn
Council ought not to stop at tina
small way of adding to its resources
Let everything the city owns, upo
which an advertisement may be profit
ablyplaeed, berented for that purpose
1t will result in attracting the atten
ton of strangers, whatever. they ma
conclude as TO our display of goo
taste. -
But, seriously, we cannot think th
Council will vote to disfgure til
lamp posts for so small or for even
much larger sum.

FLUID EXTRACT BUCHU.
The Kidneys.

The kidneys are two In number, situated
at the upper pant of the lOin, surrounded
by fat, and consisting of three parts, VIZ
the Anterior, the Interior, and the Exte-
ror.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists
of tissues or veins, which serve as q de-
pOsit for the urine and convey 1t to the
exterior. The exterior is conductor also
terminating in single tube, and called
the Ureter. The ureters are connected
with the bladder.
The bladder is composed OF various COW
erings or tissues, divided into parts, viz.
the Upper, the Lower, the Nervous, and
the Mucous. The upper expels, the lower
without the ability; others urinate with
out the ability to retain. This frequently
occurs in children.
To cure these affections, we must bring
into action the muscles which are engaged
in their various functions. If they are
neglected, Gravel or Dropsy may ensue
The reader must also he made aware,

it is sure to affect the bodily health and
mental powers, as our flesh and blood are

Dear Sfr-I have been q sufferer, for mp

worthless, and some quite Injurious; in
fact, despaIred of ever getting Well, and

unless l knew of the ingredients twas

AS you advertised that 1t was composed of
buchu, cubebs, and juniper berries, It oc-

cellent combination, and, with his advice,
after an examination OF the article, and
consulting again with the druggist, con-
cluded to try 1t. 1 commenced its use
about eight months ago, at which time I
was confined to my room. From the first
bottle L was astonished and gratihed at
the beneficial effect, and after using IL
three weeks was able to walk out. l felt
much like writing you a full statement Of
my case at that time, but thought my Inn
provement might only he temporary. ana
would effect 81 perfect cure. knowing then
it would be of greater value TO yous aud
IN ore satisfactory TO me. -s.+F.9E

months, and feel as we'll In all respects as
ever did. -- s- 80.
