T our Friends and Patrons

We announce that at the late meeting of the
Monroe County Agriculture Society, the first
premium was awarded to the Estey Organ.
With due regard TO the energy and zeal OF
other parties competing for the same prize, they
found their instruments, when compared with
the superior merits of the Estey, to be tth
class. In other words only limitations.
The style of the Estey is pleasing, its full
depth of tone combines a sweetness and power
that will make it a favorite in every house cir
Gle in Monroe county.
The ORGAN is durable and fully guaran-
teed.

TIE Franklin Rerieao says: Several anus
ing Jokes were perpstrated here just after
the Louisville drawing came off last week.
One gentleman was caused to receive dis
patch that he had drawn ten thousand dol
lars. He received it just at er he had gone
to bed, and was so anxious for confirma-
ton of the report that he arose and dressed
and roaned the streets till two O'Clock in
search Of the Telegraph operator for con-
firmation Of the news. Imagine his disap-
pointn ent on learning that the operator
knew nothing about the dispatch. Another
was caused to believe that he hell the
number that drew the capitIl prize, and
was allowed to tell nearly everybody else
in town of his success, con6dentially of
course. Finally, while breaking the good
news to panty CT courtrymen, friend
whispered in his ear that be was the victim
of cruel joke. At first he refused to be-
leve this campening message, but finally
gave in, and is now ssdder if not ricner
man.

brought up on the charge of having trespass-
ed upon the premises of tie L. & n. railroad,
and of having used abusive language to-
ward the policeman who told him esto git
up and GIT" upon the occasion of said tres
pass. The police officer testified that when
Wilson, alias Green was ordered out Of the
building. he threw himself into an attitude,
with the inquery "P'raps yer don't know
who amp" adding, when the officer reluct-
antly acknowledged that he "hadn't the
honor" etc, "Well, Pm Davy Gree tie
worst one yer ever SEEM" As the defend
ants counsel sta ed that he would like the
case contiGued, the court suspend
ed JUDGMENT until this morning
when Mr.. Wilson, alias Green,
purposes slowing that he is an abused in
nocent, and that he has been guilty of no
violation of the law. He is the chap whom
the police were looking for week ago on
account of the activity he displayed in get
ting up the prize fight between Emiline
Bent and Fanny Chapman. He was picked
IN few days ago and fined $40 on account
of his connection with that little affair.
Lonis Botaker made his appearance in
the court room, bearing about bis person,
evidences of having had a real sociable,
lively time in company with his intimate
friend snd boon companion-John Barley
corn, Esq. A fine of FIVE dollars was i'm.
posed upon Mr.. Botaker, which sum he
paid, with that dignified cheerfulness which
forms one of bis most pleasing and attrac-
tive characteristics. fH
William Mack is an individual OF color,
and William Mack is an individual who has
fal EN- into the error of believing that he is
the owner, in fee simple, OF two thirds OF
this city, and that h. holds first mortgage
on the remainder. Under these unfortu-
nate circumstances, it is no wonder that
William Mack should be brought before the
police court on the charge of disorderly
conduct, profane and abusive language, ETC.
For the next week or ten days, William
Mack can be found at the workhouse.

has been very greatly in demand. DR..
Winston's long residence in Nashville, his
extensive practice and the eminent position
be has held as one of the leading professors
in our Medical University Justly entities bis
communication to the high regard with
which it is received. 1t is a matter Of regret
that our otherlesdlng physicians have not en-
deavored to give the people few plain les

Gentle Nature blends poesy with truth,
AS the summers tell the years of her youth.
Fourteen links, bright as sunuest ray,
Number Lula's returning natal day
When Beauty, the. thinner, touch'd with soft
grace
The beaming smile playing over her face.
Then joyous sunshine left its glory there,
To mingie with incense of holy prayer.
50 the flowers their pure life exhaling,
Their embalm'd mem'ry to Garth entailing,
With a higher glow their bloom strains her
cheeks,
And fragrance OF her lips her spirit seeks.
Hard the heart that warns not with emotion,
Cold the soul that bows not with devotion
At the shrine where all the graces hover,
And each devotee's TRANSFORMED to lover.
Yet Modesty from her kindly conceaPd
The beauty which 20 others was rsveal'd.
For with fond heart and love e'er dutiful
She alone knows not that she's beautiful.
Dearest Lula, child of sunshine end song,
May time, with joy, thy precious life prOlong,
And Mercy her bOunties never stay,
In returning thy happy natal day.
