The transformations produced by Hagan' 5
Magnolia Balm are quite as astonishing as any
scene on the stage Of theatre That famous
beautifer, transmutes sallow, peeky looking
complexion, into one in which the lilly and the
rose vie for admiration, and imparts to a dry,
harsh skin, the softness of perfect loveliness.
Tan and freckles, which country air and sun
light are pretty sure to produce, in spite Of para
soils and sundowns, are completely obliterated
by it while it has perfectly magical effect in
banishing undue redness, bfotches and prim-
piles from the skin. When the lady who has
used it to remedy her complexional defects
looks in the mirror, she is equally astounded
and gratified at the Improvement in her appear
ance. Every blemish has disappeared her
neck arms and bosom, now rival in whiteness
the snowy collar which encircles her throat, her
cheek mantles with peach-like bloom, and she
is ready to inyokea blessing on the inventor of
the article which has wrought such a delightful
transformation.

tons, purify your blood by taking DR.. Pierces

The continued low water prevented the ship
ment of grain from the up-country, and now
the extraordinary freeze cuts off our supply of
grain. This is unfortunate for the trade, as pur-
chasers South will be compelled to look to other
markets for their stocks. Let all come forward
that can possibly reach the line of railroad, that
we may keep the trade above until the weather
is more favorable
A good demand exists for Corn Hay and Oats
and we are told that Horses and Mules are in
demand at fair prices. Our advice to farmers
is to sell while they can, and get the cash-it is
needed.
Bacon is still neglected; but few enquiries
and no orders. We must offer inducements, at
least until the trade is started Who will say
Gle. for his Bacon, for a start?

Awnings.

The late heavy snow suggested very forcibly
the idea of awnings over the sidewalks. On
Market Place, where awnings had been gencr-
ally constructed, the sidewalks were dry and
clear of snow. 1t is true that common wood
awnings do not always add much to the archi-
tectural appearance of city, but it all depends
upon the question whether comfort is better
than appearances

Live Stock Market.
HORSES AND MULES.

There is not great deal doing in horses and
mules, though the market has been looking up
for the past few weeks. S. II. Lackey & Co.,
are buying all the mules, offering for the
Southern trade, at prices ranging from $40 to
S135. Two weeks ago one of the firm leftfor At
lanta with q car load of horses and one of mules
and on last night, the 18th inst, sent down
another car load in charge Of Colonel S. II.
Davis. Owing to the scarcity of money in the
South minimum prices only are realized for
stock, with decided preference for mules over
horses, so that parties wishing to sell for this
trade cannot expect to realize fancy prices
There is no local demand for stock, either
horses or mules those desiring to purchase
either buying on the street or leaving their
orders with the regular dealers Mr. j. w
Parmetier for the past two months has averaged
selling one week. sometimes two or three in
week. As in Georgia, the preference is for
mules, $3.50 per pair having been obtained for
good animals.
The sale of stock is one of great Importance,
and if properly managed could be made profit
able business. With all the natural advantages
for raising stock, there is nothing to hinder the
majority of farmers from raising annually one
or more colts for sale. Regular monthly sales
would be of great advantage to breeders and
buyers alike, and if commenced and kept up
for while and encouraged, would soon become
marked feature in our industries Small
towns in Kentucky have their regular monthly
sales of stock, and Knoxville, with her large
and growing population, should have stock

would come to buy and sell, but Georgia Ala
bama, and other States in the South.
CATTLE.
Owing to the bad weather but few cattle were
offered during the past week. The demand,
however, has been good, and those offered found
ready sale. We hear of no shipments being
made, but the indications are that the demand
for local consumption will continue fair. We
feel no hesitancy in saying that number one fat
cattle can be easily disposed of to our butchers
