We have received q communication
in regard to our remarks heretofore
about Prof. G.. Loco Smith as & teacher
of music, &c, in the Mary Sharp Col.
lege, alleging that while all that we
have said in praise Of Prot. S. is just,
yet, that we had ignored the fact that
much praise is also due his assistants,
This communication comes from a
patron who is in no way interested
mere than o%urself, hence we will be
brief BY simply saying that all who
read the Home Journal must know
that we never Intentionally make mis-
takes, or fail to give u verdict in be-
half of al! who are worthy. We do
not consider it necessary to publish the
communication referred to, but think ii
right to agree with the writer that the
assistants of Prof. Smith-to. wit
Mrs. Smith, Miss Mollic Bledsoe and
Miss Melissa Mcrritt-are also entitled
to praise. And we, speaking for the
Home Journal, would venture to say
that Prof. Smith never Intentionally
failed to give credit where credit is
certainly due. The Mary Sharp is
Southern College, that the whole
South yes, and the whole North
should be proud of. No sectional feel
iuqs should ever come in to mar the
beauty of this jewel OF Winchester
We would be 10th to think that
teacher would be selected for the Mary
Sharp because of his birth or loca
habitation. In this College merit win'
its way, we believe. And yer, al
things being equal, we think that on.
Southern girls should have a prefer
ence. We have this preference show
in the employment of Prof. Smith
assistants, and it is our hope that h
will not forget to do cmple justice b.
them. If we do not sustain our owl

Editor Home journal:
Since last week several occurrences
have taken place. First: Last TacS
day night Dr. Anderson gave the
young folks a party. There were about
forty in attendance, and they had a
nice time. Then, ON Wednesday, we
had Il picnic. There were 80 or 60
assembled together, and all seemed 50
enjoy themselves ''muchly.' Hunts
Station was well represented. Great
credit is due the young ladies of this
vicinity for the interest they manifested
in fixing up things.
Crops are looking well, considering
the fact that We have not had 4 good
rain for seven weeks up to yesterday
when we were blessed with a shower.
One crop of wheat has been thrcshcd
in this neighborhood. Mr.. Boyle
made 200 bushels (ought to have
had 400) of Of forty acres.
Last Friday one Philip Gardner,
COL, was found deau in his house, on
Ruff. Woods farm, II miles from this
place, with his throat cut from ear to
ear. A razor was found in his hand.
lie was found sitting in a chair at the
table. There vas bread in his mouth.
and it is supposed that he was eating
when his throat was cut. When his
wife left the house, Brown CobIc, col.
II preacher, was there, and he and
Gardner had been quarreIing. After
the murder was discovered, C0blt
came in and made strange of his death
and, on being examined, blood wa

Last Friday, on W. j. Woods place,
two miles south of Salem, in this
county, a colored man, named Felix
Gardner, was found dead in a chair in
his own house. His throat was Gu:
from ear to ear, and his head, fallen
backwards, presented a CHASTITY spec
tacle. In his hand was clenched q
razor, which belonged to Brown Coble,
a colored preacher, who is suspected
as the murderer. To US it seems
more like u suicide, Deceased was

home worth, and too ready to patron

And We are firm in the belief that the
Mary Sharp is prcdisposed to employ
its own graduates, and encourage
Southern merit. Witness the employ
