Our Trip 60 L1Ees6 Spring.
Last Sabbath morning we accepted an
invisation from that prince Of good fel-
lows, Tom Cain, 70 spend the day with
him at Tate's Springs, and shortly found
ourself seated with him In his handsome,
Substantial buggy, behind Johnny
Bruce'a spanking ponies. bowling over
the wen condition road aG q rate tlat
would have made Dexter open hiseyes
with amusement. In the tWfnkIing Of an
eye, more or leaa, we found ourselves ON
the south bank Of the Holston, and dis
covered the fegryman and . mover en-
veloped in Precipitation and profanity,
endeavoring % make two skeletons (of
what had been horsesl pull . wagon. load
ed with 40. 600 pounds of women, chill
dren and other household goods, up a
steep bank from the boat Wemay safe
Nv predict that the mover would have
been there yet, perhaps until eternity,
had not Johnny Bruce, cur driver, who
''knew the lick it's done by" extricated
him from che dffRcultys II the fellow
who tried 10 drive that chariot 30 the sun
had only had Johnny for his Jehu, his
neck would be sound today. Along the
route we found the greater portion of
the wheat still standing in the shock,
and much Of il considerably Injured by
the great rain. It certainly Is bad poll
ey on che part of our farmers 20 leave
their wheat exposed SO long for the sake
Of other crops. They forget that q bird
in the hand is worth two In the bush.
Corn looked well, and, there is q good
prospect of an abundant yield. Arrived
at the Spring, we found congregated
about an hundred and twenty-five seek
ers of pleasure and health, all looking
wen fed and happy. After Willing
away most pleasantly number of hours,
we started on the return trip "1ust in
time % be too late" A heavy rain
caught us half way home. DreBched to
the skin, with torrent streaming from
the hair down the back of our neck
with a good-sized rivuIet running from
hole i'm the toe OF our boot--we had am ]
pie occasion 20 reflect on the uncertainty
OF human affairs. We thought how
+" Fair winds are but o prophecy
OF foulest winds full soon TO be-
The brighter these-the blacker they;
The clearest night has darkest day,
And brightest days bring blacklist storm.
No serious accident betell US, bOwev-
er, and when we reached home washed
washed clean-and thought of the soap
and labor saved, we forgave the ele-
ments. One regret only rankIed, and
that was because we had been unable co
persuade a certain dark-skinned, long
haired young limb Of the law to accom-
pany as on the trip. We wanted him to
share that dueking.
p. Sour good friend, Esq. ID. Q.
Noe, viii excuse us for not stopping, as
we returned, for the particulars of the
a brush marriage" Johnny Bruce was
of opinion that the matter would keep
better than we would in such weather,
and consequently let the ponies out.

Rainf RaInf -Tsafn

We all predicted a dry summer when
the spring deluge held high carnival, but
we counted without host. For num-
Der of days il has rained beyond what is
usual at this season. Much damage has
been done to wheat still in the shock,
and meadows in some localities have
been OVERLOOKED. We have quit predict
ing. Two prophets have just Informed
us of the future. Both agreed that it
ralned the first Of what is called dog
days. But they agree no further. One
says that Il viii rainevery day for seven
days, and then quit; the other AYERS that
in all past times, when such an event
happens. it always rains for forty days.
We shall wait and see.
Later observation proves that both
prophets have erred. We have had two
days respite from rain, and the indica-
tions-but it is ridiculous to allude to
indications or signs such times as these.
The Morristown gazette. [volume] (Morristown, Tenn.) 1867-1920, 1875-07-21

We are not able TO say at this time that
the wheat market il likely TO open with
any marked demand. We understand
that one house here Is authorized to buy
at 65a95 cents per bushel. We presume
few of the farmers will be disposed to
sell at those figures. There has been
good deal of wet weather lately, and we
would suggest TO producers 60 dry their
wheat well and thoroughly, as all agents
viii be especially instructed 90 make .
careful scrutiny in this respect. Damp
wheat cannot be sold in any of the mar
kets except at a great sacrifice, while
that which is dry and well cleaned will
always command top figurea. - Athens

The Last Look.


They say the years since last we met
Have wrought sad change in thee;
That it were better to forget
Our youths fond histor..
And yet fain would clasp that hard,
Would meet those eyes once more,
One moment by thy side would stand,
AS have stood of yore.
They say the very tones that thrilPd
My heart, and dimm'd my eyes,
Now, by the cold worlds blighting child,
scarce might recognize.
And yet long to hear thee speak,
Repeat some bygone strsin,
Although the charm 1 there should seek
Were listened to in vain.
Iwould not wish the years rolled back,
Could such choice be mine,
Nor falter in the onward track,
Though severed far from thine.
But pilgrims may from hard-won heights
Receding homes survey,
And give sign of past delights,
Yet, sighing-turn away.
