ElktOn.

Owing to the nou-appearance of
Maxima for some time past in the
columns of your most excellent pa
per, we have concluded, though
scantily, to pen you few notes rel
alive to Elkton and vicinity of late.
The farmers are progressing rapidly
in planting, having about finished
planting corn, and with a few more
days of fair weather will terminate
the sowing of cotton. Wheat looks
as well as we ever saw it at this pc
riod of the year. Peaches have
been killed on the lowlands, while
on the upperlands they have fully
bloomed, and if unmolested by that
great enemy, frost, there will yet be
some to eat.
Last Saturday Mr.. James Bridge
forth distinguished himself as quite
a hero by plunging into the swollen
waters of the Elk and rescuing an
old man from drowning who had
fallen out of a canoe. Yesterday
afternoon a crowd of young ladies
and gentlemen went to see the work
wrought on the bridge. While there
they concluded to cross the river in
the boat, which they safely did; but
in returning, the current being
stronger than the boatmen, Olsen
gagged the boat from the rope and
they went down, down, apparently
tO destruction Rut who should he
their preserver but Jim B,2 He,
seeing the threatening peril, hastily
leaped into canoe and after reach
ing them safely moored them to the
shore. Jim, should you ever aspire
to be q candidate for an office, you
will find me ready to mount stump
and in GLOWING ignorance of elo-
quence" attempt to point out to the
people your great utility. May you
live to rescue more souls from a
watery grave. Phil ANTHRoPY.

Died.

At the residence of her father,
Mr.. A. C. W. White, near Pulaski,
on last Tuesday morning, of disease
of the brain, Miss EMILY WHITE,
aged % years, less two weeks. She
evinced symptoms of slight abera-
ton of mind since the time of the
late fire, being of very nervous
disposition, and this increased and
terminated in very violent brain in
Hammation, resulting fatally. Just
in the bloom of young womanhood,
she is called away from earth. Tru.
ly, in the midst of life we are in
death.
Bonnie, little fve-year old son
of Mr.. Conyer Smith, met a very
violent death upon his fathers
place last Thursday, He with other
children was playing upon the side
of steep hill above the spring and
while attempting to pluck a flower
near the brink of a rock that fell
perpendicularly some eight or ten
feet, he fell over. He fell upon an
other jutting rock here and tum
bled thence over and down a dis
lance of some ten or twelve feet
more, literally crushing his skull
into fragments. The unfortunate
little fellow fingered in commissions
several hours, and then death re-
lieved his sufIerings.
DIED.-At his home east of Pu-
laski, on 2Sth of March, of dropsy,
Mr.. Spencer Young, father of Mr..
j. Cal. Young of Pulaski, aged
about IA years. He was one Of the
oldest Rodents of Giles county and
spent his whole life in the neighbor-
hood in which he died. 1t is
thought he was born there and he
died within two miles of the old
place where his father lived and
died. He was much thought of In
his community as man of sterling
honesty, and he raised a large fam
lily, having several sons who are
among the very best men of the
county.
Mrs. Fountainella West, wife of
Mr.. David X. West, died very sud-
denly at home in the Brick Church
neighborhood last Sunday morning
of paralysis of the brain. She had
a stroke few weeks ago, but had
recovered and she got up and pre-
pared breakfast upon the morning
of her death, complaining of feel
ing slightly unwell. Death ensued
in about an hour and before a ply
stefan could get there. We sympa-
thize with her bereaved husband
sincerely.
Death works sad havoc with
whole communities sometimes and
is relentless and sweeping in its
sway. We recorded only two weeks
ago the death Of Mr.. Bent. r. Ezell,
and now we have to announce the
death ofhis infant posthumous child
which occurred last Sunday morn
ing, and of his wife, who persisted
of pneumonia Tuesday evening at
10 o'clock. Thus the enemy to
which we must all succumb has
fallen at once upon a whole house
hold, leaving an orphan boy some
seven or eight years of age. l.
gives US all solemn warning, and
the fate of the orphan child, left
without the love of mother or the
protection of father, excites the
greatest commisseration. Father,
mother and child now sleep the
sleep of death under newly made
mounds, and the boy orphan is left
alone TO weep. .-

Mr.. Chas. S. Wilson, one of Fay
etteville's staunchest capitalists and
citizens, was in the city yesterday
and has gone ON to Columbia. He
is comparatively n young man yet,
but some of our citizens will re-
member him as a cabinet workman
in Pulaski twenty-five years ago.
He used to work at the bench
with Esq. Bumpass. He is truly a
self made man, and in making him
self he put up a splendid job.

Tuesday night another deiuge.
One consolation is that crops, large

them. Raise all the grain possible.

alarm in Pulaski that the citizens

gestion is made by the authorities,
and we hope the citizens will re-
member it.

A prospecting squad of Is Indi-
ana farmers passed down the road
to Huntsville last week and are to
be back in this county some time
this week. They wish to buy good
lands, and they are prospecting for
the best and the cheapest. Several
of them will probably get off at Mr..
Rodes' to-day, as they have been in
vited. We do not doubt that they
would locate in Giles if all our adj
vantages could be brought to their
knowledge. We hope the citizens
that meet them will treat them with
hospitality, as it may serve to give
us tide of emigrants. Giles coun-
ty farms are too large and emf
grants can buy the best lands very
cheap. Encourage them to cast
their lot with US.

Our Senior, you will remember,
was very proud of his early potato
slips sent him by an obliging friend
several weeks since, notice of which
he made in this paper. He carried
them home and set apart and had
prepared the best portion of lis
garden he has hanging garden
it hangs up on the corners of a
some large rock on the precipice of
Malone nountain and put them
out. He has been very proud of
them and would get up in the night
and let himself down ladder into
the garden to watch them grow.
Every time he thought of digging
time the slobbers would ooze out at
the corners of his classic grub gap
and his lips would smack "yCm,
yum, yum" The whole family
thought great deal of them aud
the children were crowded all
around the garden all day peeping
through the cracks at them, and
the excitement permeated the whole
neighborhood and actually made
his old cow open her eyes and look
around. They grew wonderfully
and he commenced digging his po-
tato house and watching the mar
ket and writing north to engage his
crop, until by some means or other
it came to his ears that he had been
sold and that the slips were morn
ing glories, and so they were. Then
he tore mis- hesperian locks, smote
his Shakesperian brow, contorted
his Hyperion features and backed up
against the stable and howled, and
the man who gave him the slips had
better hide out until his wrath sub
sides. 1t was April LIST.
"Twixt the cup and the lip there's many
wild Slip
And the man in his cups or abundance Of
lip
Can plenty of slips here procure
To slip 'twixt his lip and his cupful Of nip
And make q sweet sup of sweet later flip
And slip up on something that's pure.

Did you ever sit behind lady in
church and try to keep your eye on
the preacher? How the feathers
bob around in your way, and the
ribbons flap just where you are
peeping through, and the chignon
hops athwart the line of your Wis
ion, etc. You've got to take a par
ajax on the preacher, cross one eye
and cock the other, tie your neck
up in a knot and let it fly out at
right and obtuse angles, sit on your
shoulder blades and then stand up,
twist around and peep crosswise,
and every time you see the preacher
you don't see him, and the only
success you have is to give up in
dispair and wish you had the cour-
age to snatch somebody baldheaded,
and finally settle down to counting
the stripes on the wall and wonder
ing when the preacher will desist.
