On Sabbath afternoon, June Bird,
MIR. James L. Hayes was buried at
Mt. Moriah. He had been confined
for several weeks, and for long
while he seemed To hnger just upon
this bank of the rolling river"
awaiting the summons to cross Go
the other side. He was member
Nof the Mt Moriah Church and
charity would lead his friends to
hope that his soul, cleansed from
ali its sins, had the Omnipotent
Hand to bear it up amid the dark,
tempestuous swellings of the Jor-
dan of Death.
Some of our young friends who
were reported as having the whoop-
ing cough have had instead of it a
kind of epidemic somewhat similar
to the ''epizooty."
Next Sabbath being the Sd Sab
bath in June is the regular time for
the summer sacramental meeting at
Mt. Moriah The Church session
has its regular meeting at 8 o'clock
A. NJ. Saturday. Public services ii
A. NJ. Sunday school Sabbath morn
ing at 10 O'Clock and preaching at
IL O'Clock. After the sermon, com
munion services, and then an inter
mission for refreshment. After din
ner, another sermon. 1t is expected
/ that there will be provisions enough
to accommodate all who may at
tend, so that none may be under the
necessity of leaving before the con
clusion Of the afternoon services.
Rev. w. K. Mckenzie is expected TO
preach for us.
Miss Minnie Nixon of Lawrence
burg has again been giving us the
delightful influence of her presence.
NJ SIS Clara Bodenhamer who has
been teaching in our community
during the past few months, has
gone 10 her nome in Old Lynnville,
leaving behind her sad hearts. We
are glad to know that she expects

SCHEDULE.

An exchange says, we like to
see a man refuse to take his local
paper, and all the time sponge on
his neighbor the reading Of it. We
like to hear a man complain when
we ask him to subscribe for
his home paper, that he takes more
papers than he reads now, and then
90 around and borrow his neigh
bor's or loaf about until he gets the
news from it. We like to see a
man run down his home paper as
not worth taking, and every now
and then beg the editor for a favor
in the editorial line. We like to
see a merchant refuse to advertise
in home paper, and then try to
get a share of trade which papers
bring to town. But, above all
things, we like to see a rich misery
man who cannot pay for his local
paper always manage to be around
in time to read the paper, at the ex-
pense Of a friend not worth the
tenth part of what he himself is. 1t
looks so economical, thrifty and
progressive, you know.

MacVeagh's Last Blow.

And now Wayne MacVeagh
taps Ben Buffers claret by sting
ing blow between the eyes. To
Benjamin's last bundle Of personal
tiles MacVeagh Immediately re-
piled:
81 fear you have overworked
your inventive faculties, for your
long and labored letter of to day
shows signs of failing powers, and
will go far to destroy that reputa
ton for effective scuIrility which
you have so sedulously fostered.
The issue between you and me was
at your own seeking, and is SO plain
that you cannot obscure it by any
amount of misrepresentation, how
ever irrelevant or vulgar. You de-
liberately wrote and published con
corning me four sheer falsehoods,
without a particle of foundation
for any Of them. Thereupen l
promptly put you on the national
pillory with 7e-y legible state
ment of your offenses upon your
forehead.
GAS you have endured your pun
ishment for an entire week, and now
virtually confess that every state
ment made by you was untrue, l
have no objection to your getting
down, but you must not suppose
that placed you there in resent
ment only. My chief purpose was
to exhibit you as a warning to
younger men, by showing them
that, in spite of great ability and
energy, you have become the leper
of our politics, by reason of the
general conviction that you habitu-
ally disregard the eighth and
ninth commandments. That pur-
pose has been fully answered by
the comments of the country upon
your character, and have no further
interest in the matter. i will not
even take the trouble to deny any
new talsehoods you may think it to
your advantage to invent about me,
for those who know me will not be
lieve anything you say against me,
and those who know you, of course,
will not believe ANYTHING you say
against anybody"
That will do. 1t is a correct
definition of the Essex statesman,
who bears a brand upon his brow
no Illustrations of his can obliterate.

Death has again visited our quiet lit
tie city and removed from out our
midst our dear and beloved friend, Mrs.
URSULA WELLS. After a short attack
! OF sickness she fell asleep in the arms OF
| her Saviour.
"Leaves have their time to fau.
And wither at the north winds breath,
| And &c set but all
Thou hath all seasons for thine, oh death -
1t is true that human nature in
stinctively murmurs in its anguish
against the dispensation of Jehovah,
and almost fails to recognize his author
| ity. When the death angel is commits
stoned to execute his inimitable decree /;
when Azrael, the dark-wiDged messen-
ger, sweeps over our loved homes and
sewers link in the household band, we
shrink from his chilling presence with
dread and awe, often without consider
ing that it is the irrevocable mandate of
Him who is "too wise to err" And
while we would snatch our loved ones
from deaths icy grasp, and recall them
from the unknown world, may they not
be in the full enjoyment of an immor-
tality which runs in parallel lines with
the existence of God himself. Then
may we not hope that your mother,
whose warm and generous emotions ev-
er prompted her to cast the veil of char.
ity over the errors and imperfeetions
of others, concealing them from the
scrutiny OF the unjust and censorious,
and who has fought with womanly
courage and patient hope the severe bat
tie OF life, has exchanged the armor of
earthly conflict for the star-gemmed
crown OF victory, and dwells in the bet
ter land whose beauties never put off
the crimson glories ofeternity; where a
kind providence reunites severed ties
and broken circles. We must not ex-
pect TO revel mid unalloyed pleasures,
but with every cup of life's sweets taste
some of its bitter draaghts, for
"There are no shadows where there is no sun,
There is no beauty whore there is no shade;
And all things in two lines Of glory runs,
Darkness and light, ebon and gold inlaid.
In her death society has lost an esti-
mable member, and a lonely vacancy oc-
casioned i'm the home TO whose happi-
ness she contributed so long a share
We should not mourn as those without
hope for he who has severed this link
from the family will kindly reunite il,
neyermore TO be suneered, in that sun
less land to which our loved one has
preceded us, and where we with her
may swell the triumphal anthems chant
ed by the angelic choir around the |
throne of the Eternal.
Our sympathies are extended TO the |
almost heart-broken husband and to /
the motherless children.

Elk Ridge.

DEAR CITIzEN:-As your Lynn
vile correspondent has ceased to
report, we have concluded to give
you a few items from the 10Th dis
trict. Elk Ridge church is two
miles east Of Lynnville, and is one
of the oldest churches in Giles
county. We have a very interest
ing school at this place, taught by
Miss Virginia Higdon. Miss Sallie
Robbins is teaching at Antioch, two
miles south of here. Miss Comp
ton has been teaching at Center
Point and Mrs. Matte Dabney near
Mr.. Caskey's, but the two last have
had to suspend their schools on &C
count of sickness. Measles, humps
and roseola have been prevalent for
some time, but / believe they are
on the decline. Mr.. John b. Will
sons family have tine measles yet,
is about all now in the neighbour
hood, l believe. James Reynolds,
Esq'r, one of the oldest citizens of
this vicinity, has been confined to
his room for six months with rheu-
matism. VIM. Calvert, another of
our old citizens, has been In bad
health for some time, and is very
low now with lung disease.
Mccain &5 Co. have moved their
sawmill from this neighborhood to
Big Creek. May success follow
them. We recommend them to the
good people of Big Creek as respon-
sible business men.
After four weeks of dry weather
the rain has come and will revive
the dropping spirits of the farmers,
as well as the parched vegetation.
Crops are small but clear of weeds
and grass and will grow rapidly af-
ter the late rain. Wheat is good
and turning ripe. Elk Horn.

We would kindly whisper into
the delicate ears Of those who
are stantly kicking up a dust"
about the enormities of Roman Ca
tholicism and are trying to consign
the whole concern to perdition, and
that the most effectual method Of
curtailing its power is not by cheap
and vIrnlent abuse and vicious per
secGtion, but by being more album
dant in good aOorks-by augmenting
deeds of charity-hy visiting the
sick, clothing the naked and iced
ing the hungry-by building
academies and colleges,
and by ceasing to Willy those who
do not think on subjects of religion
as we do. The cause of Christian
~ has been cursed by the no,roO-
ness Of its votaries.-Rnorville TriJ.

Death of Samuel Nicholson.

Mr.. Samuel Nicholson, formerly
Superintendent and part owner of
the Richland now the Pulaski cot
ton factory, died at his home in
Gallatin on Tuesday night 9Th inst,
aged sixty-three. The Gallatin En-
onainer says:
About year ago he received a
stroke of paralysis from which he
recoved in measure, and was able
to give some little attention to bust
ness, though he was far from being
restored Some few weeks ago he
was again attacked. From this at
tack he however rallied,and his last
days were clouded by a softening
of the brain.
The deceased was a native of
Massachusetts and more than thir-
ty years ago came to Tennessee.
His first occupation in life was in
the cotton mills of New England,
which he pursued steadily until the
last. He was possessed of great
cHcTSy vi CHdIaCIcf anu III btlliSSHCS,
with habits of temperance, com
bined with great system and order
in business. For many years he
was the Superintendent Of the Cot
ton Mills at Lebanon, Tenn. After
the destruction of the Mills by
fire, he took charge of the Cotton
Mills of Pulaski, Tenn, land operated
shem up TO the war, and at its close
removed to Gallatin, and in connec-
ton with Robert Fl. Gardner, of
Nashville, built the Eagle Wooden
Mills which he managed with skill
and profit until their burning in the
winter of 1874. Last year upon his
own account, he rebuilt them, but
was never able to give them much
attention on account of his impaired
health.
We are gald to know that he
leaves his family in comfortable
and even aff1uent circumstances. |
Among his assets is policy of in
surance for $4,000 in the Etna, of
Hartford.
