>ReWard Of Merit.

It is with pleasure we observe the
aourishing bdkiness now being done by
the live firm of Stotts & Dempsey, mar
BILE and monument dealers, west side of
the Square. The rapid and steady in
crease in the tombstone branch OF their
line is mainly to be attributed to the
very superior artist and workman whom
theyhave been fortunate enoughto secure
to fill that department. In Mr.. John r.
McDermott, late of Baltimore, our city
can boast of a designer and artist ex-
celled by none in the West. Those
contemplating erecting really elegant
and superior head-stones overt the graves
of their departed friends, r cordially
assured that in the hands of Mr.. Nc
Dermott their orders will be executed
in superior style. and fully satisfactory
in every respect.

Some Of our young men have beer
badly ''scared," of late, at a .'mysteri-
GUS phantom" which seems to follow
them as they make calls on Sunday
evenings. We are not a believer in
ghosts, but we propose to try our hand
some evening and find out what is ter.
rifying the boys.

The Medical Association

On Monday night we ayailed our
selves of the first opportunity we have
had TO be present at the deliberations o
the Andrew County Medical Associa.
ton, and, barring the necessary jargon
of unpronounceable and unintellisible
medical terms, much of interest was
brought up--too much for report in our
columns. W. were glad to observe the
disposition felt amoung its members to
f%raternize and assist each other. The
field of medicine is too large for each
doctor to depend upon himself alone.
BY stately meeting together and dis
cussing mooted points and comparing
notes and experience, a fund of practical
and very valuable knowledge could be
obtained by its members which could
be obtained in no other way.
Some ten or fifteen members were
present on Monday, and one new can
didate for membership was presented.
/Drs. F. A. Simmons and w. II. Bry-
ant were chosen Delegates to the State
Medical Association, with Drs. Smith
and Ferguson as Alternates.
The paper by DR.. Stone: Medicine
as it is. was, and will be-" and that of
DIR. Bryant: "Some of the difficulties
attending the practice of medicine"
each presented thoughts and facts of
interest. and displayed a proper spirit
of charity on the part Of the authors,
greatly to their credit. Both deplored
the too greatly prevalent spirit of jeal-
ousy and animosity among the votaries
of the profession and urged the eradica-
ton of the evil. DR.. Simmons, and, in
deed, all present, conceded. DR.. Smith
submitted an exhaustive essay on ''puer-
peral commissions" which elected much
discussion, of profit, participated in by
Drs. Stone, Bryant. Ferguson, Spicer,
Impey, Simmons and others.
After the exhibition Of a pathological
specimen-a large tumor-the Society
adjourned.

Stinson went to St. Joe and gave infor-
nation to the authorities. A deputation,

He soon arrived. Landing at the bridge,
he was met by the Marshal, who ten

was entertained over Sunday. On Mon
day he was furnished with board and
lodging at the jail.

Several young ladies accompanied the

they found Mr.. Davis, and she, whose
reputation he had tried to ruin, gave
him more than 80 lashes, and informed
him that his presence was no longer
needed in Harrison county"

When the plants are too large to ad-
NIT the plough, use only hoes to keep
down the grass and weeds.
Wait till considerable number of
plants begin to button for seeds before
you commence to top, when these will
ripen about the same time. Topping
must be done according to the appear
ance and promise of each plant,
strength of soil, and the time the work
is done. First topping for medium to-
baccO should be from ten. to twelve
leaves, rarely more, printing off lower
leaves, neither too high nor too low,
but Just high enough so that when the
plant ripens the lower leaves may be
well off the ground.
Continue topping as the plants are
large enough, observing as the season
advances to top lower and lower, so as
to bring in the late plants before frost.
After the tobacco begins to gain
that is, to ripen, neither plow nor, hoe
should be used. as it has been found
best to sacrifice pounds to color.
The plants, after being topped,
should be kept clear Of worms, and the
suckers should be pulled off before
they grow too long. Mind, do not be
in hurry to cut your tobacco before
fully ripe, and enough fully and uni
formly ripe to fill barn. Have your
barns close Qong ones are best, well
daubed and dry. Cut the tobacco of
uniform size, color and quality, put
ting about seven medium plants to an
ordinary four and a half foot stick,
