by giving the desired information in re-
gard to it, ard also state whether it has
continued to give the satisfaction which
its early use promised. As he is one of
the live farmers of this county, his expo
rience and observation in this department,
given through the columns of the HERALD
AND MAIL, would be read with great inter-
est, and tend very materially, doubtless,
to the promotion of greater success in
farming.
The reports of the discussions of the
Farmers Club, as given in the HERALD,
were full of valuable information and sug-
gestive of many improvements in agricul-
ture, which have been successfully adapt
cd and carried out, and it is hoped that
these meetings will not be abandoned nor
these clubs suffer themselves to be absorb
ed in the great Grange movement.
We regret to state that Mrs. Ann, wife
of Col. M. I. Cheairs lies in very low
and precarious condition of health. Her
friends have the most serious apprehen-
sions of the result of the long continued
and prostrating attack under which she
has been laboring.
Capt. Henry p. Pointer aud his amiable
and lovely wife, are blessed with a most
magnificent son, now some two weeks old.
The Captain is justly proud of his boy,
but endeavors to wear his blushing honors
meekly.
Our merchants are beginning to receive
their spring stock of goods. Trade is
opening lively and our streets on Satur-
days and other public days present the
appearance Of Broad street in Nashville.
Miss Dora and Miss Sallie McLemore,

CHARLES SUMNER.
Meeting of the CoIored People OF
Maurv County

A large meeting of the coIored peo-
pie of Maury county was held at the
Court House, on the 18th inst, to pay
respect to the memory of Hon. CHAs.
SUMNER. Hon. S. NJ. ARNELL was
the first speaker, and he was followed
by MARSHALL LEWIS, COL, and Rev.
BAALAM FRIERsoN, col. The follow
ing resolutions were offered by Rev.
THOMAS WILLIAMSON, COL, and
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That by the death of Hon.
Charles Sumner liberty has lost her fore
most, ablest champion, and the colored
people of the United States friend, who
for thirty years has been their persistent
and unalterable advocate, and now that
he has left US forever, his memory shall
be precious to us and to our generations,
Resolved, That in respect to the mem
DRY of this great American Senator, we
shall the more endeavor to do justice, to
love freedom, to bury all animosities of
race or seryitude forever from our sight,
and to know nothing but the welfare of the
whole American people.
On motion of Kew. b. FRIERSON,
the proprietors of the HERALD AND
MAIL were requested to publish these
resolutions,
