THE BALL OF THE GERMAN RIFLE CLUB
This splendid affair came OF last evening at the
Hbernian Hall with oil the success which usually
accompanies the efforts OF our German friends In
this line The handsome hall was filled at an
early hour with the fair guests OF the club and the
bright eyes, smiling faces and beautiful dresses,
showed the enjoyment and interest which all TOOK
In the pleasures OF the hour. Throughout the
scene the handsome uniforms Of green were con-
splcuous, and In the dance and promenade seemed
equally appreciated and esteemed by the falrer
norton or creation. A large number or gentle
men guests were also present. Upon The stage az
the further end OF the hall were Muller's brass
band, and the dreamy waltzes, inspiring quad
rifles aud exciting pokas with which they rfgaled
the company, stirred the blood OF all ages and be-
cuiled them into the dance. On the lower story
of the building were the refreshmenL rooms
which were largely patronlzed by the guests. The
dancing was kept up with spirit, and not until
the small hours OF morning had crept upon the
happy walters did the gay company disperse.

the advice OF his counsel, III preference to giving
bonds for his appearance. Is once more In that
place OF resort for public nulsances. 1t seems
that the cotton matter was settled by agreement,
and the bale had been sold by factor who turned
over the money to Robin. The cotton was partly
owned by a colored man, named Cato Gabriel, 10
the amount Of sS4. and that sum Robin turned
over to him In $50 and several other bills. The
.aon as Robin called it to Cato Gabriel, who did
not know numbers, had q large rent In IL, aud
Cato refused to take it. After some persuasion
from the crafty Robin, he took 1t and left. A
few days ago Cato carried this bill to store to
purchase groceries, and was informed oy the
shopkeeper that 1t was five dollar bill. Thun-
derstruck, he appealed to several reliable persons
Of his acquaintance, who confirmed the shop
Keepers statement. He applied to Robin, VINO
swore it was $40 bill that he had given to cato.
The matter was referred to Trial Justice Magrath,
and in spite of Robins the torn bill
and the evidence OF several witnesses convicted
him of breach OF trust and defraudlng the prose-
cutor of SIS. Robin was sent to jail for twenty
five days.

The Sweetwater enterprise. (Sweetwater, Tenn.) 1869-187?, 1871-01-05

On Tuesl,v, Dio., 9Th, at Cumber-
land Stand. Fork Greek, by Rev. A. G
Small, DR. w. Il. Foute, of Adairsville,
Ga, and Miss Eliza Roberts, Of Monroe
county, Tenn.
We rejoice to know that our esteemed
friend Foute, "has chosen this good part,''
with a hope that it may never be taken
from him.
The fair bride and groom left hOre OIL
the evening train of the same day for
Adairsville, Ga, where we hope they ar
rived in safety.
In wishing them a long life, We add, in
all sincerity, may their lives be a long and
c!oudless summers day, and peace and
trust be with them happiness dwell around
about them like an atmosphere of our soft
Southern air, and every flower in Hy men's
yellow leaf bloom aud blow.
May the domestic "bOnd of happiness
unite their hearts together. When their
gentle lives are ended blameless as they
we're blessed, may they fall to the earth
together as softly AZ the leaves Of two twin
roses, meath the soft sigh of the western
winds, drop to the earth together"

The Influence Of Newspapers.

1t is almost impossible to estimate the
advantage to be derived from reading
newspapers. A great many business men
do mot think it worth while to take a
newspaper at home. They take papers
and read them, bat do not think it worth
while to keep their families Informed
of what is passing in The world around
them.
A school teacher who had enjoyed the
benefit of u long practice Of bis profess
sion, and watched closely the influence of
newspapers upon the mind of . family Of
children, gives as a result Of his obsr va
tions, that without exception, those schol-
ars Of all sexes, aud all ages, who has ac-
cess to newspapers at home, when compar-
ed with those who have not, are:
l.. Better readers, excelling in pronun-
citation, and consequently read more un-
detstandingly.
2. They are better spoilers, and define
words with ease aud accuracy.
3. They obtain a partial knowledge IN
geography in almost half the time it re.
quires Others, as the newspaper has made
them familiar with tue location Of impor.
tant places and nations, their governments
aud doings.
a. They are better grammarians for
having become familiar with every vari.
ETY. Of style in the newspaper, from CON-
mon-placC advertisements to the finished
and classical grafton of the State.m mali
they more readily comprehend the mean
ing of the text, aud consequently a%ualyze
its construction with accuracy.
5. They write better compositions, us
ing better language, containing more
thoughts, and still more clearly express
ed.
From these simple facts eimPortant
things can be deduccd.
/. The responsibility of the press in
supplying literature which shall be under.
Standingly expressed.
2. The absolute necessity of personal
supervision Of a child's reading BY his par
cuts.
3. Having once obtained a good able
paper, no matter what the price, don't be-
grudge ita hearty support.

Here, smiling the ambient air, waited from
natures green sward c~iinging 10 the mountain

Now and then she would emergs from her un-

WHAT Oysters Contain.

Persons who prefer oysters cooked in
their own liquor may be Interested in
knowing what the fluid contains. Open
All oyster, retain the liquor in the lower or
deep she'll, and if viewed through a mi
croScope, it will be found to contain multi.
tudes of small oysters covered with shells
and swimming nimbly about, 100 and TWEEN
ty of which extend but one inch. Besides
these young oysters, the liquor contains
a variety of animalculn and myriads of
three distinct species Of worms. Some.
times their light resembles a blush star
about the center of the shell, which will
be beautifully luminous in a dark room
We don't care 50 much for the Young
oysters, as the worms" But "worms" or
no "worme' we love oysters and will eat
them whenever we feel so inclined.

ENGLISH FEMALE BITTERS,

The Medical Profession at large, have long
felt the need Of just such a medicine, consequent
ly it ID not strange that they 70 eagerly prescribe
aud recommend these Bitters to their female
patients: Ii you could zee the pile Of smiling
approvals and encoiniums from physicians ana
the public who have cured their wives, their
daughters and their friends by the Use Of these
Filters, no sickly female would hesitate to use
them. This Female Regulator is adapted Tor
oll, young, married or single females, who are
affected with acute or chronic forms of Uterine
arrangements. They cure painful, suppressed,
scanty, f~royuse or irregular Menstruation, Clo-
rosis or Green Sickness, Fluor Albus or Whites,
Mysteries, Falling Of the Wooh, liberation and
lrritability Of the Womb, pain in the side, back
or loins, sick headache, palpitation or tluttering
Of the Heart, hurried Breathing, swimming Of
the head, Geld feet and hands, loss of appetite,
indigestion, torpid Liver, Melancholy, Nervous
ness, Waketulncss, Barrenness, physical Pros
%tra,ion, ETC., etc. Many of these are relieved
by tho use Of only one bottle.

THE LIVER AND STOMACH

Are thoroughly aroused and restored to a healthy
action, by the use of these Bitters. it, peculiar
Iron and Vegetable combination, places it far
ahead Of any similar preparation before the pub
lie. Females, after confinement and GONZALES
cents from any dchllitating complaint, who re-
main weak aid feeble, with little or no appetite
are ut once aroused and strengthened by their
use. As n family tonic for men, women and
children, it has no equal. One tablespoonful
contains more medical properties than one bottle
OF any Of the common and pleasant "lilute al
cohol" bitters, to be found all over the country.
When the manufacturers OF the common beyer-
ages OF the day say they cure all diseases, they
well know they are "pulling the wool" over
