Falls Village.
 l am afraid your Falls Village cerrespon- dent is becoming neglectful of his duty, as hear nothing from him of the important changes which have taken place in our village this spring. ..... Several families have changed their stopping places and we have a new store in brisk running order, beside another about to be erected. The first week in April presented quite city like appearance, loads of goods were seen going up and down the street. MT. R. Seger has moved to F. M. Olins' cottage on the corner of Main and Chapel Street,. MT. Chapman from his house (recently purchased by MT. HalD to the house formerly occupied by Mir. Seger, on Prospect Street, MT. Chapman is about to open meat market in the room recently occupied by s. D. Clemens. ... .Gossips are on the lookout for wedding, which is said to be in preparation in our village, all the good people may expect to invitation, so have your white kid gloves cleaned and watch tine post-office.. Miss White, who has charge of the Boston millinery rooms here, is attending to the opening of Spring fashion Tn Boston, and Worcester Citizens Hall may be styled the Bee Hive of this county. U. H. Miner, our most popular merchant, has fitted up the room on the west side of the building and is preparing for heavy spring trade, where you will find friend Murrev,s smilinU faoe to welcome you. s.

qualities of the waters lof these springs I am not aware, but if their virtues and curative properties are judged accord ing to disagreeableness of taste, am sure death would be of rare occurrence as long as these springs held out. After short sojourn at Rogersville, with tho aid of the aforesaid mule, dump car, and an East Tennesseean "who was going g fox huntin, but can put it off ter accommodate I reckon" I passed out of that place, and after one or two short tarrys at the small towns along the road found my way into thls town. Greenville is undoubtedly one the most noted towns in B, T. This is the native heath of the great commoner" Andrew Johnson, whose pleasant but unimposing residence is situated 6 few doors from the hotel, on the main street, while the shop in which the illustrious ex-president was wont to slash cassimeres and jeans, is pointed out to the stlanger, as the place where him who has made SO much ado in the country, made his first start in life. He is at present sojourning here, and may be seen perambulating tho streets, looking as natural as ever, eve get our ideas of his looking natural from Mast and his carricatures.) Another noted although not universal tavoritc character, well known throughout the south, resides here, in the person of Mrs. Ward, lady of Irish origin, and 8 retail dispenser of the nt ind Of frrin ho sha most unrelenting opposer of the crusaders of a year ago. Notwithstanding that the remainder of them engaged in the same traffic. succumbed to the prayers and continues to pursue her old calling, while of the crusaders it would be an impossibili- ty to find one who would confess ttey had anything to do with it, yet they are all, or nearly all, living here. The building which they erected opposite Mrs. Wards door still remains to remind them of ihe days in which they made q mockery of religion and anything but good name for them selves. The weather for tue past week has been most charming, and the gardens here aDouls are looking me. Many Of the earlier vegetables are up and doing finely But the prospect which find most invit- ing is the peach trees. From the hotel porch on all sides may be seen peach trees fairly loaded down with blossoms, while the air is fragrant with their perfume. Should nothing occur hereafter, the peach crop will be grand success. Peaches in the season can be bought for % to 50 cents per bushel, while apples are worth twice that amount. The climate of Greenvil.e ii as that of the remainder of Eastern Tennessee, and one in fact finds very little difference in any portion of the country. Business Is on the revive. and the spelling match mania is raging. Well. am aware that have made this too lang already
 consequently will wind up. More anon Yours Respectfully. WANDERER.

TENNESSEE

FRIEND PEAsR.-An abundance of unoccupied time this A. M., has enabled and induced me to the front with my No. 2, and this time from vastly different section of East Tennessee than before. Since then it has been my lot to visit few of the many towns of East Tennessee, and although much might be written of each of them, still of only one or two shall I at this tune give you brief outline. After a week spent on the line of the E. T. Va., and Ga. R. R., embarked on the R. and I. R. R., for Rogersville, distant l5 miles. Twelve miles of this distance was made by steam, and the balance, on account of an unsafe bridge across the Holston, with the aid of dump car and mule, we were ushered into Rogersvlle at the rate of two miles an hour. Rogersville is one of the oldest, and was before the war, one of the wcalthiest towns in the state. and although much of that air of aristocracy still pervades, still it is readily observed that the war has left behind those marks of devasta. tien which if ever, it will take years to ob!iterate. Upon entering Rogersville one will at once notice at the head of the street large and finely finished brick and stone building, which was not many years since, considered one of the finest buildings in the country. It was before the war branch of the Tennessee State Bank, and when built cost over $l6.000 To show the effects of the "late onpleasantness," need only to add that it was sold within the past year, for $l.3OO. Situated in valley surrounded by Q number of quite high knobs; Rogersville is considered as one of the most healthy towns to be found in the southern states. During the rage of the cholera in East Tennessee, in the sum mer of 1873, am informed that this was about the only town exempt from it. Twelve miles from thIs place, passing celebrated alum we'll on the way, are situa- ted Hale's Sulphur Springs, noted resort for many of the wealthy southern people during the warm season.

Sheffield.
 The Luna of your columns seems very inconsistent of late, and we look in vain for her light during the many weeks past. Many are the surmises as to her where abouts, so while her light shines in other parts allow an inexperienced writer to tell the news for once.......Perhaps you don't know that April ] st was day for fasting and prayer in sta:d old Massachusetts. Let me tell you how the people of thls town lasted. Fifty-five in number observed the day by attending the services at the Congregational Church, where Rev. Mr. Noble preached from the text "The law maketh the earth empty, layeth to waste and turneth it upside down." A very good sermon. At the stores no regard was paid to the day-especially at Little's, the trade went on faster than ever; and we heard the head clerk remark that the reason they did not observe the day properly, was because our Governor was not of their party. Truly a fine excuse. ...We are pleased to notice that Mr. Little has finally concluded to paint his store. hope his neighbors will all take pattern by his example.....1t seems that MT. French did not sell his store after all, but we are not prepared to say who is to occupy this stand the coming year, as reports concerning it differ from day to day.......Mr. ostram IS expected to occupy the house of Mir. French, and Mrs. Tripp the house back of the store. ......The "David Pratt place" is rented to a native of the Emerald Isle, much to the disgust of the whole community, for it is generally understood that there is design to disturb "Widow' s right" in this place. Of course man can do with his own property as he pleases, but let those who oppose the widow and fatherless remember that With what measure ye meet it shall be measured to you again" ......An auction sale of property belonging to the estate of the late Deacon Smith, took place on the 7th inst. %. One of the youth of our town has of late made himself an object of interest, by receiving 8 visit from his sweet heart. It is one of next years privileges, in advance only. A young lady of Litchfield fame. came alone, a stranger to this town, to visit her youth ful admirer, and now the gossips are so mean as to talk about her. Such bravery should not be evil spoken of-especially when the orphan boy is worth $2O, 900 cash down. What if she did wish to see "h how the land lies," the situation of the house-whcsc business is it /? Not yours.

THE FIRST SHOT.

On the night of April 18th 1775, just one hundred years from next Sunday night, Gen. Gage, with thousand British regulars, started from Boston on secret expedition to Concord; tocapturo and destroy.the war like stores, which patriotic prudence had accumulated and deposited there. Although the vigilence of Gen. Gage was very great 1t was not sufficient to prevent the intelli- genee of his movements from leaking out and being sent over the country. It was known te the committees of safety in Lexington, Concord, and other towns, and preparations were speedily made to give the expedition warm reception.
 The next morning at the early hour of two, Gone hundred years ago next Monday morning,) l30 militia men of Lexington were assembled on the common, but when word was brought that no troops were coming, they separated to their ihomes, to return at the sound of the drum. At half past four, by order of Capt. Parker, the signal was given of the approach of the enemy, and the brave men of Sergeant Monroe's company, some of whom were in . few minutes to die, took their posts near the church. Here they awaited the moment to begin the struggle that is still in progress over the world; to determine the rights of . people to have their own form of government.
 The British were on the ground: Major Pitcairn commanding, and on horseback. He shouted an order to the Americans to lay down their arms and disperse. This order producing no effect, he drew his pistol and fired it, at the same time giving to his soldiers the command tO fire. The events that followed form the familiar history of the war of independence. The British. having compelled the retirement of the militia after many had been killed or wounded, went to Concord, the news of mornings work spread over the surround ing county: the minute men rushed to the scene of action and when the British, at noon, began their return march to Boston, they were in the midst of an enemy's country, and every inhabitant an armed soldier. Major Pitcairn's horse was wound ed, and with his equipments fell into the hands of the Americans. Confusion spread through their ranks. "They were exhaust cd with the fatigue, their tongues hanging out of their mouthslike dogs after chase. , Achievements were sent out from Boston and the remnant was saved,
 Isreal Putnam, the hero of the wolf den and Horseneck hill, who had won honors in the French war, and had been made a brigadier-general at a special meeting of the Connecticut Legislature, having heard of the explosion at Lexington, unyoked the team with which he was ploughing, and rode on. horseback sirty iue miles, ID one day, to Cambridge. Mass, and put himself immediately into contact with the Ameri- can leaders. To him was assigned the command of the militia. and his dash, dar- ing and skill, as displayed at Bunker Hill two months afterwards, form brilliant passages in the early history of the war. Thus began the war of. the Revolution.
