Their meetings commenced on Saturday.
Elder Sheldon, of Brodhead, delivered his
able discourses Saturday evening and ali

was administered in the afternoon on Sun

Highland Items.

A son of Mr.. Timothy Kane, of High,
land, tried to feed himself into thresh.
ing machine last week, but drew back af.
ter being struck by several cylinder teeth.
The teeth struck him on the back of the
hand about an inch and half from the
knuckles, cutting through the hand on
both sides of the metacarpal bone of the
second finger. The wounds were ugly
ones, and required considerable stitching
in dressing them. The band and fingers
were much bruised in other places. SOP
Little Frank Green, son of s. ID. Green,
of Montfort, met with an accident not long
since by which he lost one joint, from one
finger, and came near losing as much from
another.
Frank is four years old, and very
smart active little boy. His cousin, a
boy, nine or ten years old, was cutting
kindling with large ak.
Frank attempted TO pick up the kind
ling as it was cut, and the ak came down
on his fingers, and the above is the result.
Walton. the boy who was using the ak,
was very sorry, and said afterward to his
mother, 81 tried hard not to let the ak go
down, but I couldn't help it,
Last week, while visiting in the coun-
try, Walton fell from horse, breaking
his arm between the shoulder and elbow.
He does not know whether the last acci-
deat has any connection with the first or
not, but is inclined to think it has, A

STILL FOR FIGHT.-The southern reb-
els are becoming more bold in the ex-
preston of their sentiments, and it would
be well for northern people to note and
ponder these declarations of the represent
alive men of that region. Robert Toombs
was lately interviewed bya correspondent
of New York paper, who reports him as
follows:
asked him if he thought any consid-
cradle number of men in Georgia agreed
with him in desiring renewal of the war,
and in still hoping for southern independ-
ence. ''Two-t thirds of all the white men
in this state and the south are of this way
of thinking" he replied; land if you will
go into the country among the planters
you viii find what say is true. In the
large towns the editors and business men
talk differently, but they know nothing
about the sentiments of the people"
JEFF. Davis, in his late speech at Allan.
ia, uttered sentiments of similar import
He said he did not accept the situation, y
and that those who thought with him
could bide their time; intimating that the
public opinion of the country would yet
concede all that the south claimed in the
rebellionl He also said that the cause was
dear to him-more precious even than
life-and glory in its remembrance

Too Good Company for me.


1t was one evening last summer, when
a lady, who belongs on the editorial staff
of one of the leading dailies of New York,
had been detained by office duties until
rather a late hour Living on the
Heights, in Brooklyn, but short dis.-
ance from Fulton ferry, it was not much
of venture to go home without escort,
and so she started. On the boat, standing
outside enjoying the refreshing breeze af
ter the days toll, she perceived a gentle
man (?) in rather close proximity to
where she was leaning over the guards,
but said nothing "Are you alone ?" said
he, as the boat neared the slip. "No,
sir" said the lady, and without further
interruption, when the boat touched, she
stepped of. II thought you were not
alone" said the fellow, stepping to her
side again. 81 am not" replied the lady.
why, | don't see any one-who is with
you?" "God Almighty and the angels, sir
I'm never alone!' You keep too good
company for me, madam; good night,
and he shot for Fulton avenue car, then
nearly block away. The heroic woman
was permitted to keep to the right as
the law directs" and enjoy that full meas
ure of quiet satisfaction one always feels
| from keeping good company.
