PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE.

Avast horde Of Maury countiaus over
run Louisville this week.
Mr.. w. NJ. Lewis, a wealthy citizen OF
Gainesville, Ala, stopped in our town
few days since, on his way home from
the northwest.
Major Willis Jones, the hospitabie pro-
prietor of Laurel Hill Factory. passed
through Columbia last Monday, on his
way back home from Cincinnati.
Major Boiling Gordon, who has been
absent in Hopkinsville, KY, q week or
SO, passed through Columbia last Tues
day, on his way back to his home In
Hickman county. He is looking quite
well, as If he enjoyed his visit to Ken>
lucky exceedingly. The Maj. Is OF
temperament to enjoy fine and hospita-
BILE people, and his trip to Kentucky was
therefore necessarily pleasant. May he
live to enjoy many such trips.
Capt. Jim Walker has gone back to
Mississippi, after having several severe
chills while here. Our kindest wishes
go with him.
Hiram Malone, of the Waynesboro Re-
view, was In Columbia few days since.
William Bagiey, young "typo" en-
gagged on the Pulaski Citizen, was here
few DAYS ago on, a visit to his friends.
We doubt il he was known when he ar
rived in Pulaski, he having left here
wearing a new "plug" hat.
Our people will remember with pleas
ure Mr.. d. w. C. Rowland, who, when
the railroad was first built to this place,
was one of the conductors. He was we'll
be-like ed, not only as good citizen, but
courteous and accommodating. He Is
now the Assistant General Superinten-
dent of the Louisville, Nashville and
Great Southern Railroad, and has spe-
,cial charge of this line of the road Mr..
Rowland, by close study of railroad
ing, in all it's details, has raised himself
to the high and responsible position he
now occupies.

ESQ. J. I. Hunt united one of Culleo>
ks's best negroes, John Epperson, and
Annie Auis. cold, in the bonds of mat
rimony on the 9TH of October.
We regret to learn that our good look
ing blonde young friend, Ben Lipscomb.
met with q painful accident at Cross
bridges recently. He stepped on nail
in a barrel hoop, Tin Frierson's store),
which penetrated his boot and foot.
Capt. n. J. Vaughn has bought the Ash

bled at the Christian Church on Cathey's
creek, on the evening of the LIST Of Octo-
Der, to witness the marriage OF Mr.. X.
ID. Morgan to Miss AnniS kittrell, by
the Rev. John Morton. We regret to
say that they will remain In our county
but few days longer, as they are going
TO start for their home in Paris, Texas
Miss Kittrell has been loved and admir-
ed from her school days up to the pres

sutton.
The magnificent bull of Messrs. Har-
Ian & Williams, OF this county, passed
through Columbia few days since,
with a blue ribbon, which he took at the
state Fair at Nashville, this week, in
the ring of aged bulls. Capt. Gibson,
of Spring Hill, also took the premium
offered for the best year old cow.
Cotton is yielding in this county much
better than was expected. X. n. Me-
Bride. of Sawdust Valley, says he has
one acre which will yield two Thousand
pounds seed cotton, one bale having al
ready been picked from it. He has ma.
ny acres which will yield thousand
pounds, and so also have his neighbors.
Usually it takes seventeen hundred
pounds of seed cotton to make bale,
but this fall has been SO dry that 1t takes
Ton is lost by not opening before frost;
but this will be about all saved this year
by the cotton being opened. A big crop
of cotton was planted in thiscounty.

DIR. c. G. McEwen, OF this county, YVES

SANTA FE ITEMS.

Cotton il coming in freely, and Il turn
ing out better than was expected.
Santa Fe has been very unfortunate
this Fall in the loss of many old and
useful citizens. Since the LIST Of August
many have died in the neisbor-
hood, including Alex. Wisener. Ellis
Dodson, James Morrow, Joshua Harbi-
son, Mrs. Dodson, . very aged lady,
wife Of Hitower Dodson, Martin p. Err
win, John Dorch. These good and USE
full citizens are lost TO our neighborhood
in the short space Of two months. More
deaths have occurred than In Q year
previous.
A revival has been going on ut the
Methodist church for ten days. Much
feeling and good attendance At the time.
The Fall business il opening up, and
trade getting better. Capt. Cowley and
]. N. Meroney haye bought out the
store, mill and gin of W. o. Gordon& Co.

The candidates for Congress, and for
the Legislature, spoke here on the 4th, q
large crowd being present. Some inter
esting speeches were made, showing that
much talent Is! in our county yet. Gen.
Whitthorne's speech carried everything
before It triumphantly. Col. Gibbs will
hardly be known In the race. As i0r
county candidates, the people are much
divided In opinion. Both oheatham and
johnson have many friends in their race,
though Cheatham IL gaining ground
steadily. -si

withdraw.

Mr.. Jas. T. Moore, candidate to repre-
sent Msury county in the lower house
of the next Legislature, has withdrawn
from the race; and last Monday, after
the candidates for Congress got through
speaking, he mounted the stand and
made few pertinent remarks. He COM
menced the canyass in order to hit the
Radicals of this county q few ticks, and
prevent any Of them being elected to of
fee; and he now retires from the race
in order TO secure harmony in the Demo-
CT attic party. He invoked every Demo-
cratic voter, by their duty to their party
and their country, to 60 to the polls next
Saturday, and vote at the Primary Elec-
ton; and then support the candidate
getting the largest number of votes.
These sentiments, uttered at this oppor-
tune time. do Mr.. Moore's patriotism
great credit, and their hearty approval
by the crowd showed how we'll they
were received.

MEssRs. EDITORS :-Pelhan, is an un-
pretending farm house named in honor
OF that gallant young Artillerist who
gave up his fair young life for the Lost
Cause" It il situated not far away
from Primm's Springs, and seeing you
have quite number of correspondents
from various places, "Pelbam" modest
iy claims place in the picture and her
correspondent sends kind gTeetings,
both warm and sincere to the dear five
hundred frisnds-noble men and fair
and beauteOus women-whom he met
the past summer at "PFimm's"-may
we have happy reunion there next sea-
son. No one is at the Springs now all
is silence and solitude, and the casual
visitor, indeed, "feels like one who
treads alone some banquet hall DESERT
ed" The Spring is still there, sending
forth as pure water as ever gushed from
the bosom of old Mother Earth; the
Cabins are there, confronting each other
like mailed warriors, in grim silence,
separated only by the graceful waters
of the classic little puppy Branch, !"
as it glides sweetly on between them,
and soon wends its way into the more
majestic and stately "Dog Creek" "Sic
transit gloria mu.di !"
may occasionally tell an anecdote at
the expense Of some OF our noble friends
who visited us last summer; such, tor
instance, as very distinguished editor
that wot of, who, in conjunction with
his accomplished assistant, publishes
one of the nersiest papers In Tennessee;
but at present ] wish to commence
nearer home, and tell you bow complete
~ one of your fsir county women turn
ed down one of my Hickman county
friends. A party Of ladies and gentle
men were one day at the Spring for wa
ter, when one of the ladies exclaimed !:
"What hillst dear bless me, who eyer
saw such hills Z" A gentleman remark
ed joculsrly, "they are precisely such
hills, madam, as you have in Maury
county, only you are obliged to cultivate
yours up there" "Sir," said she, " you
are mistaken, our hills are rich we
have no such poor hills as these are, in
Maury county," Excuse me, mad
am" said he, "but fancy the hills
around Undertook are quite as poor as
these, and that is in Maury county"
YES SIR" said she, 81 and can give you
a good and sufficient reason why the
hills around Undertook are SO poor: it
is because they are down % near to the
Hickman county line" The gentleman
from Hickman beat hasty, and, I think,
q prudent retreat.

The candidates for Congress in the OH
district, ald the candidates for state
Senator, Representative and Floater, as
sembled at Mt. Pleasant last Saturday,
to address the people, Of that section.
Quarterly Meeting being held In the
Methodist church in the morning, the
candidates did not speak until amer II
o'clock, and many of them went to hear
DIR. Green preach, who, in company with
Rev. W. II. Hughes. Rev. Mr.. Grsy, and
Rev. Jasper Nicholl, returned the COM
pliment in the evening and went to hear
the politicians. The speaking was in
the grassy lawn in front of the Presby-
terrain church, the very spot where An>
drew johnson spoke at Breckenridge
meeting in the campaign of 1850. The
candidates for legislative honors
opened the speaking, by simply an
nouncing themselves. We were truly
glad to learn that all of thom stand
mary Election. After they got through,
Gen. Whitthorne announced himself
candidate to represent the people of this
congressional district in the 1orty>third
Congress; and made an able and elo-
auent speech, He saidIthat his past his
tory was known to the people of Maury
county, and he. would. not speak Of his
own actions. In all he had ever done,
he had nothing,tO regret OF. Ietract. He
bad done nothing but what he had be-
lieved was in defense Of constitutional
liberty; which he believed was imper-
Tiled to-day by the Grant administra-
ton. He quoted from speech of Wen
dell Phillips, from whose prolific brain
three or four great political parties had
sprung, In which ths great Agitator says
he hoped Grant would reign over this
country until every Southern man for
ty years old would be buried in the
grave. This, spoken by the father and
leader of the Radical party, is the most
dangerous sentiment that could be ut
tered against constitutional liberty. The
eloquent speaker gave many other for
chile illustrations of the dangerous ten
denotes of the present administration,
towards Capitalization and one man
power. Truly, the people OF the 9th
district should be proud Of their able
standsrd-besrer. Judge Morris and Col.
Gibbs followed Gen. WhitthoFns, Col.
Gibbs makes good showing for bis par
ty, and produces much fun by singing
old campaign songs of lS40>4.
The indifference shown by the old
citizens to political discussions Is as
widespread as it is unfortunate. We
asked an intelligent old gentleman why
he was not at the speaking, and his re-
ply was substantially as follows: "Too
much speaking brought on the war, and
I think it can do no good now; 1 am
tired of politics." His sentiment is
shared by great many Of the old men
of Msury county, and the consequence
is, very few OF them attend political
gatherings. 1t is much to be deplored,
but we fear that time alone can eradicate
