A SUGGESTION.

The law authorizes the city of Dallas
by majority vote of its citizens, to take
exclusive control of the public schools
within its limits, We direct the attcn-
ton of the mayor to the law, section 50,
and ask that he issue his proclamation
calling upon the property taxpayers OF
the city to determine by vote whether
Dallas shall take charge of its free
schools. 1t is very desirable that she
should do SO and the vote should be
had at once.

Messrs. VIM. Graham & Sons are
now finishing up one of the most
elegant carriages ever seen in Pu-
laski, and have already set up in
their sample room another very ele-
gantly fin ished one-horse carriage,
which it seems to us they offer to
sell at remarkably low figures. 1t
is an elegant turnout. They have
also several beautiful buggies on
hand, and other vehicles, including
buggies and spring wagons, in course
of construction. One thing we
like about this establishment
None but the best materials are used
and none but the best workmen are
employed, while most of the work is
done by the proprietors themselves

Bethanyites at MerryVille.

On Friday evening l4th April, a
party from Bethany set sail for the
hospitable sister city of Merryville,
in bouyant spirits, anticipating a
pleasant time; suffice it to say, that
their anticipations were realized, for
Merryville is noted far and wide as
a second Philadelphia, or "city Of
brotherly love-"
DIR. j. L. Sherrell threw open his
doors with hearty welcome, and
invited the pleasure seekers to a
sumptious feast, who did ample JUS
tice to the viands spread before
them by his whole-soul lady.
OF those composing the party we
must mention Bethany's most
charming bellies, the accomplished
Misses Ella Nelson, Mamie vii
son, Sallie Bruce and Emma Patter-
son; to complete the circle Of female
loneliness there Assem- bled, we can
not omit the Dr's. fascinating
