LOOKING FOR HfM.-One Of our police
men was discharged few days ago, and in
a very few hours some dozen sanguinaTy
looking men with bludg0ons were looking
for MN. LIZ WAS mon eoHiatiOUs.-- Ifao

| PRoGREssING.-w Work on the streets and
sidewalks under the direction Of officer
McAlexander, is progressing rapidly. The
work done is well done, and Is being
pushed with energy. Let IL so on.
BEAUTIFUL. For beauty in the true, full
sense Of that glorious word when applied
to the most exquisite work Of deity, wO-
man, the ladies Of Jackson arc unsurpassed,
and every visitor to the city on the 10Th
will acknowledge the fact. Fair friends
look your sweetest on that occasion, and
thereby encourage emigration.
FLoURIsHING.- East Jackson Lodge OF
United Friends OF Temperance, Initiated
last Friday night, ten new members, and
will initiate ten more tonight, which will
swell the membership to 7i. Most every
thing. churches, praycr-meetings, singing
schools, temperance, men, women and chill
dren, all seem to flourish extraordinarily in
the East End. wesHve there and so does
our senior
SNUFF DIPPERs-The habis Of strong
dirk Is not more ungoyernable than the
habit OF snuff-dipping when once thor
oughly formed. Neither the laws Of health,
the solicitation Of love, or the dread Of rid-
Guile can. rs a rule. reform those once ad-
dlcted TO its use. It's victims become
slaves, and instead OF quarreling with
them, mankind Shout have charity for
their weakness. We were amused recently
at covenant between couple Of snuff
clippers, reported TO Us by a lady friend.
| They solemnly promised, each 10 the other,
that under no circumstances would they
give up the habit, and to enforce the cove
nant, shook hands heartily and firmly.
This illustrates the force OF habit and the
difficulty Of breaking of one when thor
eughly formed.
BE PREPARED.-We have ample reasons
TO believe that there will be a large crowd
here on the 10Th. From present indications
our utmost capacity for entertaining guests
will be developed. Hence we urge our cit
liens TO prepare for the occasion and to
warmly second the committees in their eff
forts. See that Jackson's fame for gene
rous and elegant hospitality does not suffer.
Every citizen, old and young, rich and
poor, male and female, is interested in
maintaining the reputation Of Jackson for
hospitality. Remember that many great
thing has grown from a smaller beginning
than this new State movement, and that
should this movement lead to practical re-
suits, no community VIII be more doepIy
interested in it than jackson. A word to
the wise is sufficient. In conclusion, we
appeal to our citizens TO be worthy Of them
selves and the past on the 10Th, and do not
underestimate the interest felt in other
communities in the movement.
MASONIC RECORD.-The most beautiful
and speaking Masonic design we have vet
seen, is the "Masonic Record and Emble-
matte History" published by Carson &
Barnards. The picture, when framed, is a
superb ornament for either paTlOr or sitting
| room. In 10 are all the emblems OF Mason
~ beautifully arranged in historic order.

been purchased by the brotherhood in thi,
City, and great many more will be or
dered.

4 B. Crook, Of Henderson Station, was ar
