OUR SERENADE.-We love music--whc

moved by concord of sweet sounds
The lights in our dwelling grew suddenly
brighter. The moo seemed to smile more
bcnignly. Not a baby cried the whole
night long. and never cried when mama
combed their little laxen, tangled, fuzzy
hair in the morning. They even submit
ted without a whimper to have their
bright, chubby faces washed as clean as
driven snow. Their shoe-strings had no
knots in them, and they only wanted half
the usual quantity of saccharine matter.
Our servants were up earlier, and break
fast was more acceptable than common,
though. to tell the truth, it is never very
unacceptable. All this because Il party
of nice gentlemen gave us n of the
sweetest sercnades WI ever had. 1t was
just in timc-at a moment when our heart,
and our w.fe's heart. and the little hearts
of our little precious children, needed.

we shall not forget you. Our wife shall
not forget you. And our little girls shall
not forget you. Wen think of you

The evening spreads her robes of light,
And. like Il young and timid bride,
Sits blushing in the arms ofnight."

A TRIAL That DIDN'T CONE OFF,
Quite Il crowd of people gathered in oui
Courthouse last Friday afternoon to wit
ness the proposed trial of John and Tede
Poe, who were committed to Jail Tuesday
night previous under Il charge of assault
and battery AMI malicious mischief. But
the trial in question was for another offence
1.-THE murder of Daniel Weaver in 1871 OIL
~. A number Of witnesses. four magis-
trates as Judges, and attorneys for and
against, besides the prisoners, were all
present, and everything seemed CONNIE il
J,out for business. But a legal question
was sprung just here as to whether the
court had a right to try the prisoners for
this offence when they were already
awaiting trial for another. and the point
made by the prosecution was that the
court and sheriff, both, had innocently
transcribed their power and duty in
brir ging the prisoners from jail. which
"amsunted to an escape" Considerable
discussion occurred upon this point, but
the Court finally decided to remand the
prisoners to Jail. Aud they were remand

For a bottle of wine we are under sbli-
Cation to our energetic, worthy, and ever
prompt subscriber, Mr.. Jacob Micscher,
who has been a resident of Franklin coun-
ty for several years. This wine is no
mocker, we are sure. 1t Is beautiful to be-
hold; glows like i summer sunset; is as
clear as light itself, and sparkles like a
diamond. Our faith is strong that it is
unsurpassed by any wine we ever
tasted, and we do verify believe it
would give eur pen 4 sort of spir-
ttuel power in which to describe
it, if we should drink. But strong as is
our faith, (and appetite, too, for that!) we
have not tasted it.. We have not the heart
to do so. We are saving %it-saving it for
some grand occasion. We did think of
bursting its confines on Monday last
Westinghouse birthday. But we saw
from the Nashville papers that said day
was to be celebrated in that city in such
grand style, and we knew that so many OF
her good people would illustrate Noah
and Lot of old, that we concluded to re-
main in our wonted abstemious condition,
sans peur ct sans repr0chc. And so il
sparkles--the wine docs--upon Il side
board, while empty wine-glasses stand 81
lently around, like children at meal time
waiting for an invitation. They shall not
nurse their anxiety in silence long, for
baby's birthday will soon come round, as
well as Washington's, and then therell be
at our house u loyc-feast, and pattering
feet, bright little eyes, ruby lips, sweetest
smiles, tender hands, and older snes grown
young the while, will j,in with sparkling
wine and ringing glasses in n grand
chorus of thanks to Mr.. Miescher.

INTENTIONALLY our next issue we will
publish something about Judge N. A. Pat
t%erson's great invention of a Propeller.
And now comes John F. Vaughan, of Win
chester, who has invented a churn-dash,
which is simple but certainly effective. 1t
reyolvcs in descending, and in ascending
rcyolves in an opposite direction, which
agitates the milk powerfully. 1t is easily
cleaned and will suit the common style of
churns. We regard it as ahead of any
dash now in use, and John is too smart not
to secure a patent tor it. We predict that
it will be a source. as it ought, of profit to
our tellow-citizen.
We have been wondering if Toe could in
vent something. A friend at our left
suggests that we "get up some sort Of de-
coction for 4 man to take that one draught
of it will forever make whisky, or strong
drink, obnoxious to him. (This friend

ky does and yet not make the imbiber

effects of strong drink But we have no
hope of irNcnting anything Of the sort.
If we could only invent something to
make people better--something that could
discover who arc u enemics--something
that would prevent them fren plotting
against us, either openly or behind our
back--something that would make them
comprehend our right mstives--something
that would keep the poor from having to

something that would give peace to
troubled hearts; health to those who pine
IN sickness: bread to the hungry; homes
