Married.

At the residence OF the brides father,
Capt Jas. Smith, near Nashville, on
last Thursday evening, the 10Th, by
Rev. DIR. r. A. Young, Mr.. GRANVILLE
P Rose, formerly of Pulaski, but now
of the firm of L. H. Lanier & Son, of
that city, to Miss z. VIRGINIA SMITH.
We tender our congratulations to our
much esteemed young friend Granville
and his lovely bride and wish for them
all the good things that fortune loves to
lavish upon those who so richly deserve
its princeliest gifts. The couple were
to have arrived in Pulaski on Friday,
but thought prudent to remain in Nash
vile during the prevalence of cholera.
The happy pair received many testimO-
malls in the shape of bridal presents
from friends and relatives, but the pres
ent that demanded the highest appreci-
alton was a handsome silver service
from Mr.. L. II. Lanier. 1t testified the
esteem and confidence in which the
bridegroom was held by his employer.

We have thus far had a most remark
able June. 1t has rained almest daily
and still continues to rain. Our farm
ers are in the grass, harvest is on hand,
meadows are ready to cut, aud still it
rains. What are they to do? Must
they give up their crops to the weeds to
harvest their wheat only to see it sprout
and spoil in the shock, or must they
save their meadows only to see the hay
heat and spoil in the rain, and still lose
the growing cotton and corn? The
question is becoming serious not only
to the producer but also to the consum-
er. What are we to do for bread if it
continues to rain?

TO OUR CUSTOMERS.

Inasmuch as Agents selling the cold
stvle" or Cog Geared Machines have
circulated many reports preiudieial TO
our gearing, we would say the success
of our machine (ip keeping with the
present time) Is the certain death of the
old style machines, and the cry about
wearing out is an effort ON the part of
our competitors to keep US out of the
market as long as possible, but they
may Just as well try to keep day from
following night. Our success is Ger
tain.
We want our customers TO under
stand, if properly oiled, we warrant
the Wheel and Screw to outwear
the machines, while the cost of keeping
up the gearing in other machines viii
range from SIS to $50 each, making the
:" Superior" that much cheaper than
any other i'm actual outlay for repairs.
The Gun Metal Wheel and Cast Steel
Screw are anti-friction in nature, and
being cut gearing, runs just as true as
the works of a clock or watch. We are
truly yours,
Superior Machine Co.
The above Machines for sale by
Flautt, Martin s. Co., Pulaski,
to which they invite the attention of
customers. jun5

There has not been a case of cholera
in Pulaski yet, all assertions and beliefs
to the contrary Notwithstanding. Two
or three cases of rather severe attacks Of
cholera-morbus have appeared, but ev-
cry one of them can be traced to some
imprudence of the parties attacked
None of them resulted fatally; indeed,
not death has occurred in Pulaski in
several weeks, except one or two ne
groes, who died of diseases entirely for
eign to cholera. 1t is a remarkable fact
that there has been less choIera-morbus
in this vicinity this season than has been
known for years. This can be account
ed for from the fact that people have
been more prudent and abstemious be-
cause of the approach of cholera. We
desire to caution our people against in
dulging too freely in the use of green
vegetables as the cholera abates at other
points. We have doubtless kept it from
our midst by prudence, and if we do not
keep up that prudence until its entire
disappearance we may yet have cholera
in Pulaski.

''Them's Our Sentiments"

The following was recently adopted
by the Missouri Editorial Association:
THAT a newspaper office is a bust
ness establishment by which editors
and printers must make a living. q
That a man has the same right to walk
into a grocery store and order a barrel
of sugar or a sack of coffee, or into a law
Office and demand a legal opinion from
its occupant, or into an undertaker's
and request coffin, without expecting
70 pay for their respective wares or
services, as into a newspaper office and
demand the use OF its brains and muscle
and type, without thought of recon-
peuse. 3.-That hereafter all personal
or political matter, having for its OBJ
iect the promotion of individual for
tunes or ambition, shall be treated ex-
actly as other business matter, and
charged, at the option Of publishers, as
editorial advertising. 4.--That dead
beating-political personal and com
mercisl-on the Missouri press is asplay-
ed OUT That any editor or publisher
who fails TO carry out these resolutions
in letter and spirit shall cease to be re-
garded as a member of this association.

shortest possible line from Nashville 10

viable reputation by its smooth track,
prompt time, sure connections, and the
magnifcence of its passenger equip
ment. Its trains are made up of new

Little Pointer Brady, son of Capt n.
c. Brady, of Sardis, Miss, and grand
son of Maj. Marion Childress, about two
years of age, was kicked in the forehead
by mule while playing in the back
yard at the residence of Maj. Childress,
in this city, yesterday about one O'Clock.
Drs. Grant and Bate were summoned.
They found the skull badly fraetured,
and were of the opinion that it would
prove fatal. The parents of the unfor-
tupate little fellow are in Mississippi
and were Immediately dispatched intel
ligence of the distressing event. We
hope the little fellows injuries are not
so serious as apprehended, and we sadly
regret his misfortune.

The City Council viii meet next Sat
urday night, and besides adopting suit
able sanitary measures, &c, will, we
suppose, take into consideration the
feasibility of purchasing the ground
for city park, several sites for which
are suggested. The city viii buy the
property and turn it over to the Fruit
Growers Society to be suitably inn
proved and maintained, and the place
win be opened as a public resort, for
public meetings, sc. We think the
scheme will meet the appreciation of
all, and we defer further comment un-
til we see what action the Board takes
in the premises. We hope they will al
so take into consideration the appoint
ment of City Agent, as suggested in
this paper last week. Our present
Board is composed of live, progressive
men, and we doubt not these things
will receive their attention.

created quite an excitement by the re-
port that he had cholera. DR.. Sumptel
played off pretty good joke On several
gentlemen by reporting the man dead
and trying to get some of them to go
and dress him. They all showed the
white feather, Notwithstanding some of
them had told him to call upon them
when needed in such cases. One man
says he would have given two hundred
dollars if he had not refused to 90.

The Fruit Growers Meeting.

The Fruit Growers Meeting.
On Saturday last an adjourned meet
ing of the Fruit Growers Society was
held at the courthouse, James Nc
CaIlum, President, in the Chair, and
L. ". McCord acting Secretary. The
practicability of holding an EXPOSE
ton this year was discussed with con-
siderable interest, most of those present
evincing Il lively interest in the same.
When the sense of the meeting was
called for, 4 unanimous and enthusi-
astic response in the affirmative was
the result. Gentlemen present from
other portions of the county said the
people, young and old, were looking
forward to it with great interest. The
sense of the meeting thus expressed
was not intended, however, as final
settlement of the question, and future
meetings were appointed for every Sat
urday afternoon until such time as the
alarm and uneasiness consequent upon
the probable visitation of cholera shall
have subsidized so as to warrant final ac-
ton upon the subject. In the mean
time preparations are to go forward
with the hope that the dread calamity
may not visit us this year.
The following resolutions, offered by
L. W. McCord, were unanimously
adopted:
RESOLVED, That the Chair appoint a
Finance Committee of five, whose duty
it shall be to negotiate for a building in
which to hold our Third Annual Expo
sition, with discretionary powers to 60
forward and raise the necessary funds
to defray the expense of same, and if
necessary employ a financial agent to
canvass for that purpose, and if practi-
cable procure a lot and erect suitab bic
permanent buildings thereon for Expo
sitiOn purposes, in which fruit, agricul-
turaI, horticultural and mechanical pro-
ducts are to be exhibited under the au-
spices of this society.
ReSolUed further, That said Committee
be authorized to confer with the Mayor
and Aldermen of Pulaski with the
view of obtaining such aid or assistance
as they may be willing to afford to ac-
complish this purpose, or such cooper
alton as may result in the purchase,
Improvement and OTnamentatiOn of a
lot suitable for joint occupancy and use
as a place of public resort and amuse-
ment.
The Chair thereupon appointed L. W.
McCord, A. Cox, T. G, Jones, A. Nj.
Carter and j. r. Crow Finance Com
mittee under said resolution, and it is
earnestly hoped that the citizens and
corporate authorities win cooperate
with the Committee and its agent, Maj,
B. P. Roy, in accomplishing the lauda-
BILE purpose of the Society
On motion it was ordered that the
Society meet hereafter every Saturday
at , O'Clock P. NJ. in the Circuit Court
room at the courthouse, until further
notice, and the hope expressed that the
attendance would be full.

The negroes and some of the white
people in Pulaski still eat vegetables,
green apples, &C., unmindful of the
threatening state of affairs. We have
no objection to people doing this way
if they were the only ones concerned,
but in view of the fact that this impru-
dence of theirs may sow the germ of
the plague that is now all around us
and threateningly approaching US, we
think that such people should be drum
med out of town, if no other measures
can be adopted to prevent their foolish
ness.
