Nv First Experiment.

The following is the experience Of a
mechanic concerning the benefits of news
paper:
Ten years ago I lived in a town Of In
diana. On returning home one night, for
I am a carpenter by trade, | saw a little
girl leave my door with a smile, which is
encouraging to a man after a hard days
labor. asked my wife who she was.
She said Mrs, r. had sent her little girl
for their newspaper which she had bOr-
rowed. We sat down to tea when my
wife said to me:
81 wish you would subscribe for the
newspaper is so much company to me
when you are away from home"
Ny answer was: 81 would like to do
so, but you know l owe a payment on the
house and lot. 1t will be all that l can
do to meet it."
She said: eff you will take the paper,
I will sew for the tailor and pay for it."
subscribed for the paper; it came in
due time to the shop. While resting one
noon and looking over it, | saw an adver-
tisement of the county commissioners to
let a bridge that was to be built. 1 put in
a bid for the bridge, and the job was award
ed to me, on which | realized three hum
bred dollars, which enabled me to pay for
my house and lot easily, and for the news
paper. If had not subscribed for the
newspaper | would not have known any
thing about the contract and could not
have met the payment on my house and
lot. A mechanic never loses anything by
taking a newspaper. l would therefore
advise all such to look we'll to their inter.
est and subscribe at once for a newspaper

A letter from II. b. Yearwood, Presi-
dent of the Monroe County Agricultural
Society, is published in this paper. The
Colonel makes a strong and earnest APP
peal to the citizens of the county to come
forward and take stock and give their aid
in this great anS laudablo enterprise. 1t
remains for the people Of the county to
determine whether or not we shall have a
Fair next Fall. The Society has a good
start, yet there must be more stock taken
in order to make the enterprise u com
pletc success. Don't delay the matter
any longer, but come up at once and take
stock, and next Fall we will have one OF
the grandest of-Fairs the people of Men
roe county have ever had the good fortune
to witness. 1t will not be a circus show
a %catch-pcnny, a scheme set on FOOT fol
the purpose of taking the money out O
your pockets and give you nothing in re-
turn, but on the contrary it will put mo.
ney in your pockets, increase the value o
your real estate, and induce you to i'm
prove your stock, &c. Monroe is a goot
county, filed with good citizens, and con.
taias some of the best valley lands in the
State, fine stock, &C., yet these lands anC
stock can be improved, and their prOduc,
tons made morc abundant. Now, to speak
plaiLly, we can see no cause for Monroe
county tagging in this matter. Ever,
citizen who is possessed with che least bit o
the spirit Of improvement, and a desire tt
do good for himself and neighbOr, cal
readily see the benefits which will be dc
rived from this organization. Then lie
every man put his shoulder to the vince
and raise our county up, and ere long sh
will have a name that will be an homo
to her citizens and State for generation
to come.
The bali is now set in motion, and it i
our intention, with the assistance of 9th
crs, to keep it rolling until the object fc
which it is started is reached, then we hop
to reap the reward Of our labors. An
thing we can do for the furtherance
the interests of our people will be don
with the greatest pleasure, and hope tina
our efforts will be appreciated. Rea

Leap Year in Chattanooga.

The Chronicle says Kirby's Times is
one of the papers said by the Memphis
Appeal to be printed with 'swamp mud"
We sometimes think it is either printed
hat way, or is meant for a Typographical
map of Chattanooga. In one of his re-
cent issues printed with his "swamp mud"
he gave an account Of a leap year party
which as near as we could make out said,
that the young ladies showd their manli.
ness by having the following notices in
conspicuous places: 1--WE mean business
snow is your chance" "Waiting is tedi-
