"RoUaHrNe IT."-The subject obe dis.

this city on the 10th inst. will be that oil
"Roughing It." 1t consists chiefly Of
California "reminiscences, with accounts
Of new discoveries in the animal, yegeta.
bic and mineral kingdoms, glowing de.
scriptions of exqulsite scenery and drolI
yarns Of life in the bush. The Chicago
Post draws the following pen picture OF
happy Mark: "a thin man of five feet
ten, thirty.five or 80, eyes that penetrate
like a gimlet, nasal pear projecting and
pendulous, carretty, curly hair and mus.

punctuating his tardy fun with the most
complicated awkwardness OF gesture.

IMPORTANT NoTICE.-Our subscribers
will be called on to-day by our colleotors
for this weeks subscription, and 1t will be
great favor if the amount due in each
instance be ready for them. This will be
an accommodation to the collectors, and
we are quite positive will prove to be
more satisfactory to subscribers The
amount is small, and can be paid without
making serious impression on any ones
exchequer. We hope, therefore, that all
who may be called on to-day will give
Messrs. Gillespy & 90. fifteen cent vel
come, and as much more hearty one as
they may choose. Don't compel them to
call twice for so small an amount.

LITTLE WoMEN's oCrETY.-The at
tendance at the Female College, last even
ing, was largc--much too large for the
sitting accommodations. The hall was
literally packed, and around all the doors
opening into IT were gathered crowds, all
anxious to sec and hear what was going
on within. The occasion which called
out so many of our citizens was musical
and literary entertainment given by the
young ladies Of the Little Women's So
ciety, connected with the College, It
was our misfortune to be late in getting to
the hall, or rather, in getting inside
the front door, as that was: the best
We could do. To be compelled to
stand up, and to undergo the pressure
Of a crowd, arc not the most
favorable circumstances under which to
hear music, be 1t ever sosweet, or to listen
to essays, be they Of the very highest
order of merit. One thing we think
was pretty clearly demonstrated last
night, and that was, II Prof, Morton
continues in charge Of tho College, adj
ditional hall accommodations will have
TO be provided. Each succeeding enter.
tainmcnt provided by Prof NJ. has been
more largely attended than It's predecessor
and we respectfully suggest to the Trus'
tees that they take the matter oil enlarg.
ing the present hall, or building a new one,
into immediate consideration.
When VIC say that last nights enter.
tainment was a grand success, we make
the statement on tho representation Of
those who were fortunate enough to gel
Inside the building. In point ofnumbers
VIC give our own testimony above. Tha
it was highly appreciated, the hearty and
rapturous applause of the audience abund'
antly testified.

Shot from, Ambush, ,

Mr. VIII H. Gillespie, a young man late Of
Blount county, was shot near Mr.. Robert Arm
strong's while going to his home in the bend of
the river, on New Years evening.
Gillespie had been to this city and was drink
ing during the day. AS he returned home he
went by Middlebrool1 to see young lady to
whom he was paying his respects.
A man by the name of Rutherford, who lives
at Middlebrook, was counting the same girl, and
is supposed to have been jealous of Gillespie.
After pleasant hour with his lady-love, Mr..
Gillespie started for home, and at about 8 clock
at night, as he was crossing the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia Railroad, three miles
from town, near Mr.. Robert Armstrong; as
above stated. some one in ambush fred upon
him from the roadside. The first ball went
through his coat; a second shot was then fred,
the ball lodging in the shoulder.
DR.. NJ. L. Rogers being sent for went down,
but could not extract the ball. 1t made a very
painful wound and the injured man it is
thought will die.
Rutherford is believed to have been the one
who did the shooting.

The Secret of Captiyation.

Features of Grecian mould, well-turned
neck and beautifully rounded arms, are no
doubt very nice things to have, and ladies who
to Mother Nature, yet, after all, the most cap
tivating of all womanly charms is pure. fresh
and brilliant complexion. This superlative fas-
cination any lady may secure by using HAGAN's
MAGNOLIA BALM, the standard identifying pre-
paration of the present age. 1t differs from all
ordinary cosmetics in three most essential par
uculars, lnasmuch as it contains no injurious
ingredients, does not contract or shrvel the skin
as all the aStringent blooms" lotions" and
powders" eventually do, but produces last
ing loneliness by improving the health of the
skin. Under Its operation the texture of the
epIoermls becomes liner, and the surface soft as
velvet and smooth as porcelain. Features can
not be changed, but compilations can. and it is
quite certain that lady with no other charm
than fresh and rosy complexion, will attract
with a classic face but a sallOw skin.
