 To SCHOOL TRUsTEEs.--The attention of the School Trustees is called to the communication in another column from Prof. Moses, County Supt of Public Instruc- tion. This is a matter of impor- tance and should have prompt attention.
 The Nursery-a monthly mag azine for youngest readers, by John L. Shorey, Boston, at $1.6o.
 We have received several num- bers of this very interesting and attractive magazine. It is nice ly illustrated, full of instructive reading and is just the thing for the little ones. Wherever there is a home with children, this magazine should be found.
 MT. Daniel F. Beatty's Golden Tongue Parlor Organs are instru- ments that are winning for them selves a good reputation far and wide. The career of this firm is full of interest, and shows what close application to one branch of business will do. Their energy, zeal and unyielding determination made them win.-Washington IN. J. Star.
 See their advertisement in an other column. Their home paper speaks well of their enterprise. No doubt this organ will give gen eral satisfaction.
 Hon. N. D. Shinn was up from his plantation again last Sat urday and bro9ghscc along some SaMplass5l his corn which are as good as any man can wish. One stalk was seventeen feet high and had two splendid ears on it ten feet from the ground. The Judge recently ordered 25,000 shingles to make preparations to tako care of his crop, but if we were to judge by his specimens we would advise him to charter a shingle machine and just cover his whole field at once. Judge Shinn will send specimens of his farm prod ucts to the centennial commits sioners at Little Rock.
 -THE WAY TO DO IT.-Mr. Jo- siah Henry came into our office last Thursday to subscribe for the DEMOCRAT and brought along with him some specimens of white bunch peas which he is growing and which are very fine looking and will make a large yield. Now we all want to see our country improve and fill up with good peo- pie, and the best way to accom- plish this is for all our farmers to follow MT. Kenry's example, come in and subscribe for your county paper and lend it hearty support, and then let us know what inducements our county offers to good industrious farmers. We will publish this to the world and the whole country will be benefited. This is the way to do it.
 : AN ExPLANATIoN.--It is a fact not generally known that all sewing machine manufacturers paid license to Elias Howe, Jr., the original inventor, and one ma chine of the kind for which license was asked always accompanied the application.
 Thus Mir. Howe had before him q sample of every form of sewing machine manufactured. Constant study upon them enabled him to avoid the defects of each, and i'm prove upon the excellences of all. This fact explains the wonderful degree of perfection to which Mir. Howe brought his latest pattern of machine, without which advan- tages such result could not have been achieved. Ask your mer- chant to order one for you.
