POSTPONE MENT.
Fourth Gift Concert
of Public Library of Kentucky
A Card to the Public.

The Trustees of the Public Library of Ken
lucky and the management of the Gift Con-
cert announce the postponement of the
Fourth Gift Concert until Tuesday, the 3lst
of March next.
The public will readily understand the
causes which have made this postponement
necessary.
The financial panic, which has for the
last two months paralyzed the business OF
every section of this country and of Europe,
has prevented thousands from investing in
tickets. The epidemics pervading almost
the entire South have cut off a large and
available market. And, too, the public
Judging from the efforts of these causes have
expected postponement and have declin-
ed to invest without more positive assur.
auce ofthe drawing taking place on fixed
day.
All interested desire n full drawing, but
for the reason just stated this could not be
had on the Sd of December, but the short
postponement now announced will secure
1t.
The management has met with unprece-
dented success. The sales OF tickets the
proceeds of which have already been receiv-
ed, amount to over a MILLION DOLLARS,
with a number of agencies in this country
yet to hear from, and all others in Europe.
Thus a drawing Scaling the gifts one
halD could be had now, but the manage
ment deem it best to have a postpOnement
and full 1ralctng.
This postponement assures the sale Of all the
Tickets and A FULL DRAWING. That this
determination will meet with the approba-
ton of nearly every one interested is made
apparent by the very numerous letters re-
ceived from every section of this country
and the Canadas asking for a postpone
ment.
This action of the management Will work
no detriment tc any but will be for the good
of all. By it the fortunate ticket holder
will receive their gifts IN full while it will
not effect those who do not draw gifts.
In making this announcement the man
agement empbnticallg state Hatthere SHaU be no
further postponea1eat, and to this end all agents
will be imperatively required to close up
and transmit their accounts to this Office by
the 2lst of March.

GILES County has ten thousand dollars
in the County Treasury, and is out Of
debt. What has she done for public
schools1 Marshall county is out of debt
and has six thousand dollars in her treas
ury, but she has done nothing for the pub
lic schools, we believe. Maury county
has spent $4,000 on her public schools,
and spent thousands of dollars in rebuild
ing bridges destroyed during the war, and
in other public enterprises, and yet she is
nearly or quite out of debt

GEN. THARP, of West Tennessee, has an
nounced himself candidate!for Governor
No doubt his modesty will be duly ap-
preciated by the nominating convention
next spring or summer. Col. JoHN S.
KERR, of Memphis, is prominently spoken
of in the same connection. Col. w T.
AVERY, is also mentioned. West Tennes-
see Democrats should be wise in their Sc
lection of a man to present before the
convention, if they expect to get the nomi-
nation. The party is determined to
avoid all the difficulties of the last State
canvass, and will demand statesman Of
6rst-class ability and possessing charac-
ter above reproach. We expect to support
the nominee, and are therefore exceeding
ly anxious to have a competent and
available man. Let West Tennessee put
forward her best man in every respect

REMARKS.

We have established frst-cass school of
ten years standing, interior to none in Ken
lucky, for the education of young ladies, ON
plain, practical principles, devoid of unnec-
essary expense and superficial display. l am
located in healthy portion of the country, on
a large and fertile farm, and give my whole
attention to the supplying of the household
with every provision necessary for health and
comfort. raise large supplies of corn, wheat,
hogs. cattle, vegetables and fruits; canned
fruits are always prepared for winter use.
Being thus situated. / am able to give a
better salary to competent teachers, to fur :
nish your daughters healthier food, and
charge you more moderate prices than yOr
can find IN any school of like advantage in
any State in the Union. Every years ex-
perience teaches the importance of having
girls removed from the many disturbing in
fuences incident to a school in a town or
city. Many thanks are due the public for
liberal patronage during the past years, and
by faithful discharge of our dnties through
out the coming ones, we hope to merit and re-
ceive renewed proofs of confidence and ap-
probation.
