One of the new features in the May Ex-

by Maj. John J. Thomas, of the firm Of
Bowling & Thomas, GAINESVILLE. This, we
think, will be interesting to many of our
citizens and business men the more so that
Nashville is endeavoring to revive her to-
bacco market. Louisville, Evansville, Hop
kinsville, Henderson, Paducah and other to-
bacco markets should show what kind OF
weed they have. What say you? shall
GAINESVILLE be alone in the display OF the
weeds, which gives her commercial prestige
enjoyed by no other of medium size in

JoHNsoSVILLE, April Is, 1S72.-Gen. g..
F. Clleatham-Dear Sir-Y Tours, requesting
me to call a meeting of the Executive Com
mittee, to consider the propriety Of post
poning the convention called to meet on the
9th Of May until after the August elections,
is at hand, and considered. l will at once
confer with such of The committee as are
within reach, and will be governed by their
decision. However, deem IL proper to
state, that the resolution calling a co1ven-
ton to meet on the 9th OF May was unani-
mously adopted by the committee, and
do not believe it was intended by any mem
Der of the committee TO advance the inter-
est Of any particular aspirant for guberna-
tOrisl honors, but for the best interests of
the party. There are other questions that
vitality affect the future harmony of the
party to be- considered.
In response to the call, many counties IN
the State have already appointed delegates,
ard nearly all have taken steps to so.
As member Of the committee l doubt our
right to recall our action. 1t is now with
the party, and when in convention, they
can do as they choose.
However much may feel disposed as an
individual to accommodate you, as men,
Der Of the committee shall oppose rescind-
ing the resolution calling a convention, on
the 4th of May. There are other
questions of too muchimpOr5snce to the par
ty to be deferred.

MORE ABOUT SEWING MACHINES.
Common Sense-StartIing Disclosures
Read Carefully, it will astonish, prof.
it, and crafty you.

The manufacturers and agents in the interest
OF other Sewing Machines, represent that the
AMERICAN SEWING MACHINE is of no account
That 1t will wear out in short time and advise
persons desiring to purchase Sewing Machines to
BUY any other Sewing Machine than an Ameri-
can" The reason they so falsely represent the
American Buttonhole and Overseaming Sewing
Machine, is that their bread and butter depends
upon it, for wherever the American il introduced,
it's reputation is established and the calling OF its
enemies ended. as people will buy no other Ma
chine The American Buttonhole Overs canning
and Sewing Machine Company, with its immense
factories and large stores and warerooms in Phil
adelphia, together with its large capital employed
exclusively in the Sewing Ma chine interest can
not and dare not, make anything but the very
best quality of Sewing Machines. 1t has too much
money and interest at stake. No person
should entertain supposition for moment that
the American Sewing Machine Company would
place upon the marketa Sewing Machine that is
not first class in every respect; knowing full well
that any other than first class machine would be
total failure and bring financial ruin to its stock
holders chagrin and modification to it's officers
and great satisfaction to it's enemies and COMPETE
tors. Notwithstanding the unprecedented sue
cess and popularity OF the American Sewing Ma
cnlne, tnere are stll lew lncredui Gus people
easily Influenced by the representations ola few
leading machines and relying on the merits of
machine by the greatest number sold and If that
is true test the Wheeler & Wilson lie the second
beet In the market, and who will believe that p
net even the man himself that has the article in
the HERALD about Sewing Machines. People at
this time and age Of the world are not SO easily
humbugged; they read and think for themselves.
Now in conclusion have only this to say: Be-
fore buying Sewing Machine, examine every
one In the market and make a Lote of everything
that is said detrimental to the American Machine
then carefully examine tht American, and Grover
& Baker. Try them, tie at them thoroughly, COM
pare them to the representations made regarding
them by their enemies and you will be perfectly
satisfied that the American, and Grover q Baker
Sewing Machines are good, reliable first class
machines, and you can save ten dollars by buying
either of those machines.

HARRISON TOWNSHIP.

Southeast of Oskaloosa about three
miles and with its west line due south of
the Square, lies section of country known
as Harrison Township, and beautiful
portion of the county is here seen. En-
tering the township about mid way on its
north side, travelled eastward along the
southern line of the northern tier of farms.
These farms are not large, ranging from
40 acres to 200 acres each, which in my
opinion is as it should be. While do not
impute any want of enterprise-ether
public or private; any lack of interest in
the public veal, or notions of aristOcratic
exclusiveness, to those known as large
farmers, can but think that the coun-
try will not attain its highest develp-
ment either agriculturally, socially, or ed
ucationally, until the large farms are divi-
ded, and owned by as many men as
there are forty acre fields. Farms will
then be better titled than now; school
houses and churches abound and an in
creased population tend TO more even dis
trlbution of wealth, and nearer approach
to the American idea of equality.
The HERALD is found in every house
on this line, with but one exception, and
many of its friends assured me that they
would not pretend to do without it; some
OF them had been its friends and patrons
ever since its birth. Influence may change
them.
Coming to party Of the farmers Of the
neighbOrhOod at work on the road,
stopped aud chattei with them, learn
ing that Grange" was talked of among
them. Many declared that they were
tired of supporting the "middlemen" who
were strictly non.producers, and livers off
of profits that justly belong TO the farmers;
others that farmers could only find protec-
ton in cOmbir alton and organization and
that the object and design OF Oranges was
directly to promote the welfare of the
farming community, Members of Gran
ges are known as patrons of Husband
ry." 1t occurs to US that Protectors Of
Husbandry would be more significant
There seems to be magic charm in the
secrecy of these Grange assemblies never
acquired by the more antiquated "Far-
iners Clubs" The reason is perhaps OBJ
f'ous; Tor while Farmers Clubs" sought
on'y 10 instruct in production, the Grange
goes farther and teaches methods of con.
SUMPTION '.e., by eating; and as "full
stomach maketh the heart glad, etc., etc. )"
Grange popularity follows as a matter of
course. Many counties of the State have

SAD Accommodating the celebration
at Granville on the Fourth, some parties
were firing an anvil, and attempted to load
it from q powder can containing 5 Tbs of
powder when the heat of the iron ignited
the powder, exploding the can and throw.
ing the four men about the anvil, to the
ground with great violence, setting their
clothes on fire and badly bruising them all.
The injured men were VIM. Johnson, John
Lincoln, James Robinson, and a fourth
whose name we did not learn. Our in
formant, j. S. Randell, tells us that the
victims were horrible sight, all blackened
with the powder, burnt TO raw, bloody
mass apparently, and all more or less
blinded by the flash and flames. They
were at once stripped OF their burning
clothes, and received all the care that
could be bestowed, but it was thought that
johnson could not recover. We wish such
dangerous sports could be laid aside on
such occasions.
