CLARKsvILI.E.

We copy below an article from the
Paris Intclligencer, in regard to oul
growing little city:
We last week made business visit
to this young and progressive neighbor.

very imperfect idea ofthe extent ofthe
business of this place.
We were especially interested in the
TOBACCO MARKET
We have no hesitancy in recommend.
ing the Clarksville tobacco market to
our farmers as the best in our reach
Our observations of the inspection nj
the warehouses leads to the conclusion
that it is honestly and fairly done. We
were impressed at the sales room with
the fair chance every lot sold had in the
market. Every sample is thoroughly
examined, ample time is given that
every buyer may satisfy himself as to
the merits of each sample, and the
bidding goes on with spirit, yet very
deliberately. A full board of buyers
is in regular attendance, and they make
things lively, while they are paying
full prices for all grades. We unhesi.
tatingly pronounce GAINESVILLE the
market for the class of tobacco grown
in Henry, Weakley, Gibson and Dyer
Another advantage is the ncatness OF
the market, and facility of getting
speedy returns of money. Some to.
bacco that was shipped from Henry on
Thursday, was sold on Saturday fol.

pocket Saturday night, and II satisfc.
tory. Where can you beat that? We
noticed in one warehouse several hogs.
heads made of brash sawn timber in Q
broken and dilapidated condition
which will require new hogsheads tc
be made before it will be permitted tc
leave the warehouses. We call the at.
tention of farmers to this fact, as it il
loss TO them. You must learn to put
your tabaeco in good and substantial
hogsheads before sending it to market
or you will be subjected to the loss o.
new hogsheads, as the law requires tn,
warehousemen to deliver all tobacco
to purchasers in good order for ship
ment to distant points.
GROCERIES.
The grocery trade of Clarksvillc il
another feature we wish to call atten
ton to. This is by far greater thai
we had supposed. They propose to d,
as well for our people as the groccrs o
Louisville. In this line the Clarksvill,
merchants are doing large business
A very large furniture establishment
is just opening with an immense stock
A large carriage factory by Messrs
Baker a. Bro. who propose to dupli
cate any Cincinnati bill. Othe
branches of business on a large scale
we will notice in the future.

A WRITER whose heart is in the
right place says: Births is the great
sacrament. But the home that has
no such baptism cold, dull and dreary
is at best, with none of the poetry of
life in it, no legends of angels trailing
about it, and no star shining over it TO
indicate that it is favored of Heaven,

NJ LORD LYTToS.
There is no death The stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore,
Aud bright In Heavens Jeweled crown
They shine forever more.
There Is no DEATH The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer show
To golden grain. or mellowed fruit,
Or rainbow-tinted flowers.
The granite rocks disorganizc,
And feed the hungry moss they bear;
The forest leaves drink daily lie
From out the viewless air.
There is no death The leaves may fall,
And flowers may fade and pass away
They only wait through wintry hours
The coming OF May day.
There is no death! An angel form
Walks o er the earth with silent tread,
And bears our best loved things away,
And then we called them dead"
He leaves our hearts all desolate;
He plucks our fairest, sweetest flowers;
Transplanted into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
Made glad these scenes of sin aud strife
Sings now nm everlasting song
Around the tree of life.
Where'er he sees n smile too bright,
! Or heart too pure for faint and vice,

To dwell In Paradise.
Born TO that undying life,
They leave us but to come again;
With JOY we welcome them the same,
Except their sin and pain.

Advertising alone does not produce success.
The thing which is advertised must have IN
trirssic merit, or else large advertising will
eventually do it more harm than good. If
you have anything which you know to be
good, adUsrt,se 1t Thoroughly, and you will be
sure to succeed; if it is poor, don't praise it,
for people will soon discover you are lying.
Such is the policy of the BURLINGTON
ROUTE, which runs to three great regions in
the West: Ist, To Omaha, connecting with
tho great Pacific Roads. I'd, To Lincoln, the
capital of Nebraska, and all that beautiful re-
gion south of the Platte, filed with R. R.
lands and homesteads. Sd, To Saint Joseph,
Kansas City and all Kansas points.
The roads are splendidly bull, have the best
bridges, finest cars, the Miller platform and
coupler and the safety air brake Ito prevent
the loss of life that is every where else happen
ing); Pullman's sleepers, Pullman dining cars,
large and powerful engines Ito make quick
time and good connections,) and are in a word
the best equipped roads in the West. So that
if you desire to go safely, surely, quickly and
comfortable to any point in Southern Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas, or on the Pacific Roads, be
sure that gou go "By Way of Burlington"

The Wallace Sisters and Comic
Opera and Comedy Troupe.-This su-
perb organization will appear at Mammoth
Hall on Monday evening, May the 18th.
Since leaving New York on the oath of
August last, the Wallace Sisters-Jennie,
Minnie and Maud-have met with the most
remarkable and brilliant success, playing
everywhere to densely crowded houses. This
great triumph may be said to have culmina-
ted in Chicago, where, although only engaged
for one week, the fair sisters actually played
two weeks to tremendous houses, from which
they went to Milwaukee, playing one week at
the Grand Opera House, and repeating their
Chicago success.
The Sisters are supported by carefully Sc
lectsd company of % artists, with orchestra
and brass band.
Miss Jennie Wallace is brilliant little ac-
tress, full of fire and vim, and possessed of q
superb voice, carefully trained. This little
lady has achieved most legitimate success,
being made the recipient Of perfect ovation
wherever she has appeared.
Little Minnie and Maud the gems have dis
closed into most perfect little artists, and are
unrivalled in their specialtiss.
Mr.. Chas Z. Dobson, the celebrated banjo
soloIst, who stands without living rival in
his mastery and artistic manipulation OF this
once despised, and still much abused instru-
msnt, will also appear.
This fine troupe is now managed by Frank
P. Dobson of New York, who like that Illus
trious old Roman now sxelaims: Veni, Yidil!

CLYDE.

Clyde Is pictorial town Just at present.
The citizens have cultivated such an apprecia-
tion for the fine arts that they have converted
the streets into an open air art gallery, and
furnished it with a variety of life sketches by
Grady the circuslst. The drawings are all
calculated to inspire loftier emotions, and
White says they were taken by our special
artist on the spot. Feeling the need of an
elixir in some form, to heal the spring fever,
we quietly dropped over there on Tuesday,
Just to enjoy the tonic which visit to that

attempt to walk up Main Street, but came
near paying dearly for the perilous undertak-
ing. We narrowly escaped being sent on

being driven madly along the street by man
holding the Teins In one hand, and six gal

Which means that Whites statements must
be taken with all the latitude possible. People
may be lead into difficulty thereby, however.
A darky was once called upon, by his master,
to verify his statement that he had shot
deer through the hind foot and ear at the
same shot. The hearers were incredulous,
but out Of politeness did not assert their be-
lief, but looked their conclusion. Pompey
therefore must set his master right: "Yas!
Yas" ssid he, scratching his head in a won
derfully puzzled manner, while the sweat be-
gan to grow on his bronzed forehead. "Y-a-sl
Y-a-si OATS so, mass" he said, brighten
ing, as happy thought crept into his bewil-
dered head; 81 jes tell you how it was, gem

all happened" The incredulous look upon
the faces Of the guests gradually faded away,
before the explanation, and they departed
satisfied. But the darkey took his master to
task, thusIy, when they departed: 'Foh de
Lor, massa; de next time you call on dis mig
ga to confederate your stories, don't git 'em

from the Independent is reliable, neither Tom
nor White would have half the trouble to sub
stantiate each others stories. tra' the darkey
had to get his masters straight.

Fire.-on Thursday noon, during high
wind, fire broke out in q small frame dwell
ling on the corner of Whittlesey and Johns
streets, owned by Dr. E. Dillon, and occupied
by Mr.. Greenbrier, gardener. The fire caught
from spark from the kitchen chimney, lodg-
ing at the northeast corner Of the roof. For
tuna tely the wind was blowing from the
southwest, and the flames spread slowly, Mr.
Greenbrier meanwhile getting out all Of his
household goods except two beds, a bureau,
and trunk in which was s25 or 80 in money
and his papers. The difhoulty Of obtaining
water delayed the engines very much after
they reached the fro, and the building was
almost burned down before they commenced
throwing. They did good service, however,
in smothering out the embers which would
otherwise have been blown about by the high
wind to the danger Of other property. Loss

of our city should no longer neglect the sub
iect of a sufficient water supply. To do so
would be wHnton oarelessnesS, not to say
criminal indifference. We have had repeated
warnings, by these small fires, aad the dsy
may come, when it will be too late to repent

Burglar Shot and Killed at Elmore.
On Thursday night of last week, a burglar
named Tom johnson, alias Knight, Parker,
Ashgraye and several other aliases, was shot
and killed at Elmore under the following cir
cumstance: A young man named Martin
Wolfe of the firm of Nubemyer & Co., hard
ware dealers, returned to the store from fire,
between ten and eleven o'clock Just after
entering the store he heard an unusual noise.
which sounded as if some person was trying
to gain entrance at the back door. Taking a
revolver, Mr.. Wolfe went out OF the front
door and quietly made his way to tho rear of
the building, where the unknown agent was at
work. As he approached tho door he discov.
cred man boreing hole in the door, and
presenting his pistol invited tho buaglar to 20
with him, at the same time taking him by the
arm. They had proceeded but few steps,
when the sound of voices alarmed the burglar,
who broke away from Mr.. Wolfe and started
to run, Mr. Wolfe called to the persons ar.
preaching to stop him, and also demanded him
to halt or he would shoot. The burglar fail
ing to head the request, Mr. Wolfe was true
to his word, and fred, the charge taking eject
in the back Of the head and killing tho burg.
lar instantly. A coroners inquest was held,
and verdict rendered exhonerating Nj
Wolfe from any blame, the circumstances
showing conclusivsly that he was fully iustif.
able In the course pursued. johnson was 6
notorious bad character, but in some way ha,
managed to elude justice until it met him il
an unexpected manner. Ho was the man who
eloped from Youngstown with Miss JLIis
Clark, last March, and notwithstanding tn,
diigent efforts of her friends, they made good
their escape. On Monday of last week ht
was arrested in Cairo, but escaped from the
officer. The world is always better off wher
such characters leave it.
