A Necessary One-A Valuable
One.
We understand there will be shortly
started in this place, by Maj. John NJ.
Dickinson and sons, a frst-class meat and
family supply house, such an institution
as the citizens of the town have long
needed, where can be found at all times
all kinds of fresh meats, chickens, eggs,
butter, lard, etc, and also all kinds of
garden vegetables, just as soon rs they
are fit for table use. Indeed this is an
establishment that all should feel con
cerned in, as it will afford the accommo-
dation of every family in town being
supplied daily with any kind of provis-
ions they may need. Just as soon as it
opens, let every citizen of the town pat
ronize and sustain it, and try and keep
it alive, and not be dependent upon a
"one-horse" butcher who will poke on
them an inferior article at exorbitant
prices, and without any accommodation
to say the least. The people of Morris
town have been "gulled" long enough
in their meat interest to begin to look in
another direction.

"CaIicO Hop'' at Tate's.

A grand free calico hop and supper
was given at Tate's Springs Friday
night last, by E. o. Tate, Esq, proprie-
tor, for the amusement of all who de-
sired to attend. We understand the
chop" was well represented by young
ladies and gentlemen from Morristown,
Whitesburg, Mooresburg, Rutledge, and
one young, fair damsel from Knoxville.
Music furnished by Prof. zoe Patty's
Band. Everything was gotten up in
splendid style, and the young folks en-
joyed themselves hugely and danced I'M
til broad day light. They tender their
kindest wishes to Mr.. Tate for the de-
lightful treat extended at his hands.
Charlie Read says this Ball was all
"hunky."

Left for the Warm Snrinps-

Our genial young friend, Mr.. Tom B.
German, left Wednesday last for the
Warm Springs to take charge of the
books of the Warm Springs Hotel dur
ing the present season. While his many
friends here will be glad to see him do
ing well, they cannot help regret his de-
parture on account of the interest he
took in inaugurating social circles and
giving delightful serenades. The deep,
soft notes of his guitar will no doubt be
missed and longed for by many of the
fair maidens of the town ere he can be
with them again. We wish him success.

Amusement.

A youthful Morristownian was observ-
ed on Sunday last, by the GAzETTE's re-
porter, to amuse himself by squirting
water through his teeth at a little "yal-
Ter dorg" and some cats, which were re-
posing close by. The way that "yaller
purp" flew, and the manner in which
those cats pulled their tails over their
backs and slid out was astonishing to
one ignorant Of the activity of the feline
enecie.

The Wear and Tear of City Life.
The wear and tear of city life are q severe tax

hustle and anxieties Of business keep the nervous

perties of which rapidly difuse themselves through
the entire system, revive and reinforce every dor

the disuse Of all stimulants. This, to say the least

most useful remedies known. As q tonic and in

More Beef.

There's no use in talking about Cen
%tennials, Fourth of July's, or anything
else, when a population of from 400 to
1000 souls are looking up to one butcher
for meat to keep soul and body together.
This is precisely the condition of Nor
ristown. We need badly the assistance
of at least one or two more butchers.
An enterprising one that would take
hold of it in the right manner, would
make for himself a handsome profit in
twelve months time. Let some n
study about it, and then grapple it in
good earnest. It will pay. Mark that.

COMPLIMENTARY.

We take the following extract from a
letter in the Knoxville Chronicle of the
9Th, complimenting our efficient hotel
keeper, G. T. Guthrie.
We met our old friend Guthrie, forma
erly of the Lamar House, in this city.
He is now running the Turley House. at
the depot, and we understand is dong
a good business. He certainly deserves
success, for he sets a table that would do
credit 10 a Metropolitan hotel, while his
rooms look neat and clean. That he
keeps a frst-class house can be attested
by several of the delegates who stopped
with him, and we can safely recommend
the house to the travelling public.
Don't forget that he las ICE CREAM
every day for dinner!

BRISTOL.
From the Bristol Courier.

UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR.-A difficulty,
growing out of the purchase of some
chickens, occurred Wednesday, between
Mr.. w. W. Davis and Mr.. w. G. Butler,
two of our prominent produce merchants.
In the excitement, Mr.. Davis hurled a
rock or two at Mr.. Butler; which he
lodged. Mr. Butler had a knife in his
hand whiting, with which he cut Mr..
Davis in the right breast, the stab pene-
trating the lung. Mr.. Davis rested well
Wednesday night, and we hope for his
speedy recovery. An investigation of the
matter was postponed till Saturday. Mr..
Butler giving a $4,000 bond for his ap-
pearance.

JONESBORO.
From the Herald and Tribune

Some of Uncle Sans boys have just
returned from Hancock County, where
they arrested three men for Illicit distil-
ing, and destroyed seventeen stills.
1t seems from reports that two fami-
lies in Hancock County by name of
Mullins and Ray, as well as their friends
and relations have armed themselves for
the purpose of wiping each other out.
AS yet none of them have been killed
but several have been seriously wounded.
1t is strange there is not enough of good
citizens in the county to arrest these
desperadoes and restore quiet.

FrightfuI Wind Storm.

Sunday morning, between the hours of

tremendous wind storm, accompanied
by a slight rain. For the space of half
an hour it kept up a lively racket, and
some Of our citizens became so alarmed
that they arose from their beds and don
ned their clothing.

warm sympathies of the community.
The funeral services took place the 18th,
conducted by Rev. w. II. Smith.

little place, and hopes some day to be
more than a way station village.

A colored convention is called to meet
in Nashville, May 10, for the purpose of
looking into the subject of emigration.
Every county is called upon to send a
full delegation. This call is the result of
the swindling operations by which a
large number of colored people in the
other end of the State, were induced to
move West, to their great sorrow as it

that the balance is all saved and will

A Joyous School Reunion.

The schools of Ell Monte, Bog Dale
and Old Mission Joined hands last
Saturday for the purpose of enjoying
their regular May picnic. A suitable
place was chosen, and the air soon re-
sounded with the joyous shouts of the
youngsters, while the older ones tipped
the cup of joy in their peculiar ways,
till all had had enough Of pleasure,
and the slanting rays of old Sol, in
misty twilight began to veil the face
of day, when the flocks of pleasure
seekers, brimful of sugar plums, sand
wiches and other good things, wended
their way to their respective homes.
In the evening reunion took place In
the hall of the Jones Hotel for the
purpose of hearing Prof. Saxon give
short lecture on soms educational topic
and to hear him read some of his adj
mirable evolutionary selections, the
execution of which we have never
heard excelled, and his rendition of
"The Bells' has never been equalled.
Thus delightfully."- ended the picnic day
at Ell Monte, and Prof. Saxon received

hearty congratulations from his audit

EDITOR HERALD: Gallatin school,
of which Mr.. S. Butterfield is the
principal and Miss Melissa Stockton
the assistant, held delightful May
party on Saturday last, in the nice,
grassy, wlllowy flat near the residence
of Mr. Ragsdale. About 100 schol-
ars were present and about 800
spectators. The school having reached
the edge Of the grove, marched to the
neat stand prepared for the occasion
by their teachers, where were had
songs, declamations, essays, etc., till
dinner. After a regular Los Nietos
feast was had all round, Miss Anna
Steward was crowned May Queen and
Miss Judy Mcclellan, Fairy Queen,
with exercises possessing uncommon
interest. This over, I" Peeping at

games, with swinging al. lib. on two

more, occupied the time till kindly
adieus were spoken and the grove was

is due to Mr.. Butterfiel and his as
sistant, Miss Stockton, for the pains
taken and culture evinced by the
school generally, and all united in
wishing for many happy returns of the

The Washington Tract.


No one has done more to develop Los
Angeles than Mayor Beaudry. He
first conceived the idea of making the
hills about Los Angeles available for
residence purposes, and at great out
lay has graded the hills and furnished
every lot with water. The result of
this has been to cultivate a taste for
commanding positions for residences,
from which the eye could take in mag
nificent distances. Picturesque resi-
dences on adjoining heights now adorn
our city and the prevailing taste is to
get building site above the dead level
of heat and dust. To enable people to
make desirable selections of lots on
slightly elevated position, Mayor
Beaudry offers at auction to-day and
to- morrow, SO lots on the west side Of
Figueroa street, from Third tU Sixth
street. The sale is to take place on
the premises and carriages will con-
vey purchasers and visitors from
Mayor Beaudry's office to the grounds.
