The Flnh Avenue Invalid.

Olivia, writing 10 the Philadelphia
Press from Saratoga, says: The most
blest in human eyes is the great Fifth
Avenue dowaser Of New York, who has
come to Saratoga to purge away super
huous flesh. II is terrible to think
about, still more awful 10 write IL TO the
newspapers, but how can Saratoga be
word photographed unless the truth DO
told? Tbs Fifth Ayenus dowagsr has
been tied TO her aristocratic mansion, as
the goose il fastened in the story Of
pats-dsfois-gras. Liysrisd servants come
and 60 at her bidding. and by this means
exercise 10 almost entirely suspended.
II is true she takes an airing in the fam
lily carriage. but this relieves the lungs
and sOothes the nerves, but does very
little for the muscles and organs which
throw of useless matter. Then shs par
takes freely at luxurious table, sips
dainty chocolate and spicy wine, and in
return for this love OF the sensuous
Nature takes q savage revenge. Tho
beauty and glory OF early middle life is
blasted A. lightning crisps the magnih-
cent oak. The lovely woman ON the
verge OF tho thirties slowly disappears.
Her complexion. once milk Of pearl, has
gone like "a shadow; her form. once sup
pie and graceful as the Vsnus OF Milo.

armor Of fat. And this il the awful
penalty which the Almighty has fixed
for those who break his physical laws
before thoy have reached the noon OF
life. SO the Fifth avenue husband il

THE SINGER. Fred. II. Foote
the agent of the Singer is selling
more machines of this make than he
ever did. The Singer company sells
more than all the other companies
in the United States combined.
There are more tailors who will will
ingly bear testimony to the excel
lenee of the Singer than to that of
any other machine. Such men care
nothing about the conflicting state
ments of the different companies
are in no way interested in their
sales-but they nearly all use the
Singer. This is because it is the
best machine for them, and if it is
best for them, will it not also prove
the best for everybody else? Il it
was necessary to do so, the agent
for this machine could bring certiG-
Gates from people in all portions of
Madison county, to show that there
is not to-day a worn out Singer to
be found, although there are many
who have used them for fifteen
years. What can be proven by the
tailors of one town or city, and By
the people of one county, can also
be proven by the tailors of all the
towns aud cities and by the people
of all the counties in all the states
of the Union. From one locality
you can know the sentiment of all
others in the country on this point.
Fred. r. FOote, the agent for the
Singer, who can be found at Mrs.
Hocker's on Main St. can make
good every statement contained in
this notice. Call and see him.

MILAN ITEMS.

EDITORS WING AND TRIBUNE
a fine shower of rain fell last even
ing, which changed the dust into
mud, and will give our farmers an OPP
portunity to SOW grain, a great deal
of which will doubtless be sown. A
protracted meeting is in progress at
Atwood, a little station five miles
North of Milan-a Baptist church was
ty-two members. Sunday morning
Rev. J. II. Holt baptized sixteen re-
cent converts in the river near Bluff
Springs. A number of persons from
Milan are attending the Camp-meet-
ing at Wright's Chapel.
The Teachers Institute met here
Friday and Saturday, several Profess
sors were in attendance. The theory
of managing schools was ably dis
cussed-the county Superintendent
delivered All address Friday night up
on the advantages of the Free School
system.
A ''single skull boat" made in Pitts
burg, for the New Orleans rowing
club, was transferred among the ex-
pressage for Nav Orleans last Thurs
day morning. 1t was thirty feet in
length, twelve inches wide, and with
complete outfit, weighed only twen-
ty-seven pounds, and would support
a man weighing two hundred.
AS DR.. Richardson was riding into
town Friday morning his horse sud-
denly stopped, fell down, and expired
in less than five minutes, the cause
unknown. There are a number of ca
ses of fever in and around town, tho
none of them are regarded as danger

THE WEED. When an inventor
knows the value OF his work, and that
ne has really discovered something
new and useful, he would not be ike
ly to go of to a company or an indi-
vidual, and sacrifice the benefits that
would result from his invention, sim
ply because that company or individ-
ual happened to be wealthy. He
would prefer to reap the benefits of
his ingenuity and skill, aud would re-
tain, as far as possible, all the advan-
tages that would naturally flow from
their exercise. This is the state of
the case 50 far as as the Weed Sew
ing Machine is concerned. The in
ventor was not working in the inter
est of wealthy companies, but in his
own, while spending years of thought
and labor on 1t. He knew what he
had 10 contend against that the
other Sewing Machines Of the country
had their advantages, and he met
them in the only way that they could
be met-by making and throwing in
the market a better Machine than any
ever offered to the public. A rickety
instrument-with less capacity for
work than the others already in use
could not, by tho most extensive sys-
tenn of advertising, have been made
popular. Prosperity was to be achiev-
ed in but one way. The new Machine,
the Weed for instance-would neces-
sariIy have to be obviously better than
any other. It would have to run
more easily, TO be less complicated,
to be equally as strong and lasting,
and to combine in an eminent degree,
all the best qualities of all other Ma
chimes. This is what the Weed does

MEssRs. EDITORS;
Perhaps you would like to hear
from our sometimes thriving neigh
bOrhood. All is quiet here. We
refresh ourselves with the usual
hours of sleep. Indeed, we have, in
the main, peace loving and order
" community. The great trouble
here is the short crops. The cotton
and corn will not yield more than a
third of crop. And now after the
long and distressing drOuth comes
the army worn. They have made
their appearance in force and are
eating the grass, green fodder, and
in some instances, the young ears of
corn. They have not as yet dam
aged the yourg cotton seriously.
Don't know how soon they may.
Truly the agricultural outlook is 3
gloomy one. A great deal may yet
be done to help out the main crops.
The farmers are sowing turnips in
quantities from one 10 ten acres
There is more rye and wheat sown
than usual. Indeed pretty much
everything is being done that can
be done TO increase the supply of
food for man and beast
There are some scattering eviden-
ces of prosperity in our community

wood shop destroyed by fire last

came involved ia difficulty with a
Mr.. Tedford, at point near the
residence of the lstIer in the 10th
district of this county. Tedford
was badly cut with a knife, aud his
condition is thought to be critical.
Edwards was afterwards arrested
and taken 70 the house OF Esquire
j. c. Harris. II being la'e in the
evening a trial was postponed until
the next day, and in the meantime
q guard was placed over the prison
er. During the night he attempted
to escape, and as he was running
away he was shot in the back The
wound is thought 10 be mortal.
LATER.-Edwards has died since
the above was written.

EDITORS WHIG AND TRIBUNE:
Lafayette, a little son of DAME,
Hill, of Adamsyille, aged about thir
teen years, was thrown from a horse
one day last week. breaking his arm
near the wrist. The broken limb was
replaced soon afterwards, and on the
second day afterwards gangrene SCI

of the arm. The operation was per.
formed by Drs. freezing, Pettigrew
Kindel, Saunders and Bell. The boy

bility, and is calculated TO do Wei IN
his new location.
Adamsville was visited last night
by a company Of unknown men, num-
bering from five to ten. They CON-
mitted no depreciation. They visited
a house and discharged several shots,
which alarmed the citizens of the
town SO much that number of them
loaded their ''fowling pieces" and
went to the scene of action, but the
desperadOes had fed.

INeUEsT. On Sunday, in one of
the box cars of the Mobile and Ohio
r. r., near the depot in this city,
was discovered young white wom-
an, sick, helpless and delirioHs.
meanly clad, but having with her
some scanty baggage and about five
dollars in currency and twenty-five
cents in silver. Notice having been
given to his Honor the Mayor, he
had her conveyed to the house of
some colored people near by, who
were employed to take care of her.
Some of the benevolent ladies of
the city were advised of her situa-
ton, who bestowed upon her such
attentions as decency and comfort
required. Medical aid was also call
ed in, but the miserable woman was
beyond human succor, and breathed
her last at about p. IN. on Monday.
An inquest was held OH the same
evening, and upon the evidence of
Dr. John Chester and others, the
following verdict was rendered
"Mrs. or Miss DriscOll, died from a
combination Of diseases drOpsy,
enlargement of spleen and bilious
fever. The bruises on the body
were caused by lying on the floor of
a box car from Ramer Station to
this place" 1t was learned in some
way that her name was Mrs. or Miss
Driscon. 1t was stated by negro
man that she had been put upon the
train by parties at Kramer Station,
South of this point on the Mobile
aud Ohio railroad, through fear
that E he might have some contagious
disease. Beyond this report we
have learned nothing in connection
with the matter. As it is, our civ
il authorities and others have done
