M. Eaaor:
begin to think YOU are TO be elassed
among the heneiactors Of the age. The
impression has prevailed, in olden times,
that Vermont was a remote and some
what indednate region somewhere "down
East that It's inhabitants were skilled
10 the diplomacy connected with the
vending Of yankee Notions" and the
far famed Green Mountain ranges, were
the abodes Of wild animals and beasts Of
prey, to such an extent, that to be in.
habitable an Ethan Allen body guard
might be desirable But here comes the
Manche ster JOURNAL with its new Editor
and in its new dress, and in so charming
a spirit that all our fears vanish, for GER
tainly, this is an evidence not only of
civilization, but Of progress in civiliza-
ton.
Where is that place, Manchester"
said neighbor friend the other day, who
sat looking over my shoulder while read
ing the Journal. Why Manchester, the
reply was, is at the Equinox and as
in the calender, the action of the sun on,
and about these times is supposed to give
tone to the seasons, so, in the pleasure
loving aud comfort taking world this
place controls the actions and the move
ments ofthe world ofmen--and women Of
course. Why he asked again, in almost
GREATNESS astonishment--"ho can these
thing bc"-a natural consequence, the
reply was, just as the needle is attracted
by the pole, so this attracts the cultivated
and refined from the four points Of the
compass, and in Its season Of greatest at
traction the Fifth Avenue in n. Y. and
Madison Square are in measure depop.

surrounding States are descrtod-even

reason, that here both nature and art in

SweetWater SAVINGS institution.

l ahAVi bdfillSo 1nolllutlOus.
@This IR~stieution is established ofoE the
Q press purpose of those wishing to save
their money, aud have something at the ex-
p%iratiOn of the year, that VII make them
proud to feel that they have saved for
themselves and family a nice little sum,
and that too by small and frequent de-
pOsits. Ifyou deposit to-day 10 cents,
tomorrow 5 cents, and soon through the
year, you will soon have layed up an hun
dred dollars, and it is making something
as well as your labor. You get per cent.
on all sums under ten dollars, and 10 per
cent, on all sums over ten dollars. Ger.
tifc ties will be Issued by the Treasurer
for every deposit made, no matter how
small, and at the end Of the year these
certificates are taken2up and new ones
issued for the whole amount, with interest
added, which gives the depositpr COM
pound interest. We all know Mr.. II. l..
Fry, thu Treasurer, also the Finance Com
mittee therefore comment is unnecessa.
ry, as they are all known to be gentlemen,
aud men of honest principles. We ask the
question; Who is it that cannot save
from ten to twenty dollars a year and new
on MISS til We think there is not a man
in the town of Sweetwater and vicinity
butthat can do, it if he viii only econo-
mize and determine to do so. The Treas
uIer Informs us that the Institution will
go into operation on the LIST day Of mag,
1871. Now young men, old men, and
boys, let us -see who can save the most
money from May LIST to January LIST, 1872,
BY depositing a portion of our earnings in
the Dime Savings institution.
The Treasurer has q No. | Fire and
Burglar Proof Safe, which will be a sure
protection against FIRE and thieves. We
have no fears of our deposits being gobbled
by the officers connected with the con-
Germ. The Finance Committee will ex-
anime tho Treasurer's books and papers
every month, and report the condition of
the same through this paper. See adyer-
tisGment in another column.

to Mr.. Lowry, five young steers, weigh

and 1888 pounds. This is the finest lot
of cattle that has been shipped from

Read what a trst-class daily paper says
of tho Enterprise;
"This is one of the staunchest, r%aciest,
ablcst and best of our country exchanges.

and c|ommendable ability. Monroe county
should justly feel proud Ofsloh an organ,
and extend to it a patronage aud support
worthy its high merits. 1t ought to be ia.
ken by the head Of every family in the
county. We congratulate our ontcrpris-
ing brother Woodward on his success and
the good people of Monroe On having so
excellent and deserving a paper."-[Whig
and Register.
We also make the following extracts
from letters recently received at this Of
fec. W.. II. r, writes from HartweTl,
Hart county, Ga;
"MR. WOODWARD Please send me a
copy of your valuable paper for six months.
1t is a good paper, and thro ugh its col.
umns | will be able to get all the news
from my native county. Success attend
you in its publication. Whom the time
expires notify me and | will renew"
An old subscriber in Missouri writes to
a brother in this place as follows:
"YOu want to know if | get the Enter
prise. 1t has been sent to me ever since
the paper was started. | think it a splen-
did paper, and through it L get all the
news from you all every week, and what
is going on in Monroe and adjoining
counties. | think Woodward is a first
rate newspaper man. lie speaks what he
thinks is right and just"
A subscriber in Chicago, ILL.,, writes (:
"MR. WooDwARD:-Inclose find 50.
Please continue my paper. | cannot do
without it. 1t is the best paper | see from
East Tennessee. 1t suits me exactly.
DON'T let it stop. When my time expires
please notify me, and | will remit the
amount for another years subscription at
once" -,
The above extracts are onlya few fiom
the many lettersand papers which have been
received by us. That the Enterprise is
meeting with success, no one can doubt.
We shall do our best to please all of our
subscribers, and make the paper worthy of
a liberal patronage. Give us more en-
enlargement and we will give you a better
paper every week. 1t is our intention, if
we can make the necessary arrangements,
to enlarge the paper to 30 columns. We
also desire to employ an Agricultural ed
itor believing that agriculture is of more
Importance to the masses than politics, we
shall devote the most Of our space to that
purpose. If We should fail in securing an
agricultural editor, we would be pleased
to receive from the farmers short commu.
nicatiOns on the subjects of farming, stock
raising, &C., and subjects that will inter-
est the farmer and mechanic. We want
our friends to write and let Us know what
they think ofthe paper. If it suits you,
say so; if not, say so. We propose to
give a place in our columns to all letters,
whether c~ommendable or otherwise. We
simply want to know what the people
t ink of the Enterprise.
