We clip the following from the Hum
boidt Journal Of last week:
Twcnty-zix persons joined the coun-
cl Of the United Friends Of Temper
ancc las Friday night
Oar neighboring town, Rutherford
Station, is in q state Of great excite
ment over the appearance there of a
mad dog, which has bitten nearly eve
~ dog in town. The city authorities
have passed an ordinance to house or
chain every dog, or death Will be their
portion.
A gentleman from Columbus, Ky,
wss attacked with a sudden and violent
homorrhage of the lungs at the depot
last Sunday. He was a Mason, we
learn, and the members Of that frater-
nifty took him in charge and cared for
him-paid his expenses home, etc, he
being without means and in distress.
We we're unable to learn his name.
Several of our saloon men received
postal cards last Tuesday, wherein was
written as follows:
DEAR SIR:-The singing crusaders,
in behalf Of suffering humanity and
in the name of Advise Providence, will
visit you at your place of business on
Saturday next, expostulating, cntreat-
ing, exhorting, singing and praying
that you may desist from your present
business and pursue more congenial
pursuit. In the name of our sex, We
beg ard plead and pray.
COMMITTEE OF LADIES.
Most of them regard it as a decided
ly emaciatcd joke, sought to be perpe-
trated by some one for effect. Who
knows but that they may Gomez Won't
it be sensational?
Law Court adjourned here last Sat
urday snd sits in Brownsville this week.

dict of not guilty. George Patterson,

guilty; one year in the penitentiary-
Court commuted the punishment to
one hour in county jail, one dollar fine

Dress Makes the Man."

Costume may be said to have a con-
trolling influence over conduct and
character. Dress a person well, and,
other things being equal, he will be
the more inclined to act well. Self
respect Is fostered and fed by cleanli-
ness and good clothing. Dress has I'M
doubtedly a moral effect upon the con
duct; negligence of dress begets negli-
gence Of address. Tailors, therefore,
are among those who conserve good
habits and manners. We all know the
Importance Of outward appearances;
and, since so HNch of our success in
life is often covered up in broadcloth,
it is polite for us 70 keep on good terms
with our tailor. "a tailor make q
man! All, sir, a tailor" Titan on
one occasion was passing through a
street in Milan in his workjng-garb, all
unnoticed by the populace. He re
turned home, and, arrayed in his court
ly costume ofpurple velvet, reappeared
in public, when everybody did him
homage. On returning to his studio
he took off his long velvet cloak, and,
throwing it upon the ground, exclaim-
ed: Chou, then, art Titian-who one
day dropping his brush, Charles v,
who was in his studio, picked it up,
and presenting it to the astonished ar
list said, at becomes Cesar to serve
Titianw IfTitian was nothing to the
common people without his robe, we
see how very unwise it would be for
any one else to disparage his tailor.
He it Is, we must remember, who helps
us to cut q good figure in society; and
it would be suicidal for US to cut him!

and we hope they will keep it up.

The Banner learns that the order Of
Odd Fellows in the State is in healthy
and thriving condition. Since the adj
jourEment of the last session Of the
Grand Lodge, four new lodges have
been instituted, rs follows: Golden Rule
at Knoxville, Guttenburg at Chatta-
nooga, Mt. View at Cookville, and Sal
tillo at Saltillo. Great interest is being
manifested throughout the State in the
Rebekah branch of the order, and there
are several highly prosperous Rebekah
lodges now in existence, where the
wives of Odd Fellows have voice in
the proceedings and fill some Of the
offices. We understand that the most
numerously attended ledge in Nashville
is a Rebekah Lodge. Recently the
Grand Master authorized the institution
Of Rebekah lodge at Eaton, in Gibson
county, and others are to be instituted
at Mulberry, Humboldt, Yorkville and
other points. When women give favor
able attention to an institution, it is
bound TO prosper

At about half past six o'clock on
Wednesday evening, in Nashville, John
c. Waters, who the day before had
been appointed resident physician at
st. Nincent's hospital, came to his
death by breathing the fumes from an
exploded gasoline lamp. At the time
he was dressing himself preparatory to
attend prayer meeting in company
with young lady. He was the son of
Hon. w. l.. Waters, of Wilson county,
and was one of the graduating class
who received their diploma one week
ago at the medical college in that city.
