Miss Olive Logan delivered her lecture on
"Giris" at the Hammer Hall, in this place, on
last Monday night. to an audience composed
town. She remarked to Us Afterwards, II had
. nice audience, didn't l?' The people OF
Columbia had never listened to lady lecturer
in pubic, 1t jeast-and many Of them went
to hear Miss Logan through curiosity. They
s1pected TO zee strong, coarse woman, with
masculine mind and cynical disposition. I'm
agine their Disappointment then, when good
looking lady with refined, lady-like manners,
appeared before them. Her manner was self
poised, and yet easy and graceful, and from
beginning to end, she had perfect possession
ter Of her audience. No great speaker is with
out this power. Her style of speaking is so
natural that one could hardly realize that she
was delivering written speech, that had
before been given to the public. II her man.
ner was, in the most expressive sense of the
words, charming and entertaining, what shall
We say OF her noble words, and truthful senti-
mentss Of all the many brlllisntand eloquent
speeches we have heard, she pleased our
mind and taste most by her unequalled and
unr1valled dlctiOn; ana We were compelled to
accord to her the criticism of q distinguished
critic. who said she ''has the best use of the
English language in the world" And her
knowledge OF human nature, and Of all its
various and most delicate shades, is beyond
any power Of Subscription. Her noble sentiments
shine through her elegant diction even as a
"brilliant light shining through an alabaster
vase" There is NO cynicism in Miss Logan's
portrayal of the weak points in the fair
sex, and of the Gins of the world; there is
only an indignant feeling against the
tyranny OF ignorance and silly prejudice
sorrow and pity for weakness; and real
love of all that is true, good and beauti-
full In woman. We believe that the world ia
better because Olive Logan is in it, and while
we are opposed to female suffrage, at present,
we believe that her teachings will help to
make her sex worthy to receive it and honor
1t when it does come, as come it will. She
is living illustration of the fact that woman
can be Intellectual and sweet, public lecturer
and retain the charm of womanliness. dis
tinguished citizen ofthis place, who for years
made the balls of Congress ring with his elo-
quence and wisdom, :-ade the remark,
after listening to her lecture, that there was
not man in Tennessee who could surpass it
as an intellectual effort, nor equAl its delivery
and truthful picture of the different classes of
women.

cream of the soil, and Mr.. Estes plants
his in the b.ue milk. He is right in
leaving only one stalk in hill, and
wrong in drilling. Farmers are more
troubled at the second blowing OF the
corn than with all the other pIowings.
The grass and weeds are then harder to
kill and eradicate. If they are killed
then, there is no difficulty In cultivating
that field. The trouble and difficulty of
destroying the grass and weeds are
made much greater by the driu.
By checking, the pow can cross the first
blowing and take out the weeds. Mr..
Estes plants his corn down in the bot
tom between two ridges, on cold, hard
ground, and when it comes up, ii is ex>
posed, Ia a special manner, to the rains
and washes. And yet, Notwithstanding
all this, Mr.. Estes has made more char.
acter as q successful corn grower than
ever expect to achieve. There is great
blunder on the part of some in plowipg
corn too late. When the lateral roots
are hunting about in the loose surface
soil, for food, the pillow breaks them all
up, and Injuries the growth of the corn.
Ali Of the plowings that corn receive
should be given after each other, as
soon as possible. If corn is cultivated
as it should be for lew weeks, there
need be no danger of weeds and grass
overtaking it. We have it in our power
to increase the production of corn, ON
the same land we now cultivate, to such
an extent as to bring into the county
many thousands of dollars, every year.
-Four feet apart is too close for rows of
corn in Maury County. Unless the year
should prove exceptionally wet, four
and halffe is best. check my corn,
three feet ten inches one way, aud two
feet six inches the other way, one stalk
in the hill. All the cultivation the
land receives before the corn is planted,
is worth more than any it gets after
wards.
Col. Wade then introduced the follow
ing resolutions:
Resolued, That the Farmers Club
give 500 for the best five acres of corn
gro xn in this county.
Resolred, That o committee be ap-
pointed by the President 70 invite the
Agricultural Society to join with us,
so as to make the amount large enough
to produce competition.
