The Virginia Chronicle, in noticing
the late wife-beating case that took place
in Virginia, speaks The following very
appropriate little piece in favor of fog
ging a wife-beater: "a great many
good people are opposed to the idea Of
of tying man to post in a public place
and placarding as 'wife.beater. or to
fogeing him on the bare back; but if
these gentle sentamentalists would at
tend the Police Court from time to time
and listen to the evidence of some mems
brutality to their wives, their ll-placed
sympathy would soon vanish. To
talk about any punishment degrading
such men is grimly amusing. You can
not degrade the cowardly wretch who
displays his prowess in knocking down
and kicking o feeble woman. He has
already reached the lowest depth Of
degradation. He is simply beast, and
should be dealt with as such. The lash
is the thing"

Erroneous interpretations having been given
to the circular of the Porte, inviting media

not approach the Powers as vanquished State,

the Government believes she would be able to
hold. The Porte by its circular, desires to in

time againto write something
more from this part. / notice
some Of the tillers Of the soil
are turning over their stubble
lands, getting it in readiness for
early sowing of wheat; and
some are very busy at this time
making sorghum, and from
what / can learn, a pretty fair
yield is expected. So, some of
our neighbors will have plenty
of sorghum this winter, if not
much bacon. Corn crops in
this neighborhood are very
good. Cotton is opening, and
some have begun to pick. Ev-
erything is quiet about the vii
lage. Our merchants, / believe,
are doing a pretty fair business
selling cheap goods. We are
having fall-like weather = the
poet says the saddest of the year
but the beauties of nature at
this season are delightful. A
few days ago l was near the
river bank, and feeling a little
fatigued, / seated myself on the
moss-coyered ground, and

In this county, ON Norris Creek, of con-

LAND, wife of Mr.. James H. Beanland
aged about 24 years.
Died of paralysis, Sept Is, 1877, after
painful illness OF six weeks, at the resi-
dence of her father, DR.. N. N. Jenkins, of
Kelso, Mrs. MARY E. GRIFFIN, consort
Of II. B. Griffin, aged Is years 8 months
and Is days.
1t has pleased God TO take from our
midst, in the very morning of life, one of
our most amiable friends Though she was
young in years, yet she evinced such love-
ly and genial disposition as to secure the
love and friendship of all who were favored
with her acquaintance.
As daughter she was dutiful and affec-
tomato, as a sister she was lovely and at
tentive, as a wife she was humble, devote
and true, and as friend and associate she
was kind and companionabe. She leaves
father, mother, three sisters, two brothers,
a bereaved husband and a host of friends
to mourn her loss
She was married to Mr.. Ii. B. Griffin on
the Dist of Dec, 1876. Though her union
with her husband was one Of short duration,
yet it was one characterized by love, joy
and happiness.
While she was very solicitous as to her
recovery, still she bore her affection with a
great deal of fcrtitude and resignation.
Sleep OH beautiful sleeper, may you rest
in peace until the morning of the resurrection,
when God will awaken you from your dream
less sleep,and quicken your mortal body and
fashion it like His, own glorious body, when
you will once more be permitted to meet, in
presence OF God, those dear ones with the
whom you were associated in this life.
Thou art gone to the grave, but we viii
not deplore thee,
Though sorrow and darkness encompass
the tomb;
The Saviour has passed through its portals
before thee,
And the lamp of his love is your guide
mid the gloom.
Oh yes, you have left US, we no longer be-
hold thee,
Nor tread the rough paths of the world
by your side
God gave thee, he took thee, and he can re-
store thee,
And in him we trust, since orr Saviour
has died. g. A. FAIRS.

HUGH BUNNELL WRIGHT.

Tie subject Of this sad tribute of respect
was born in Ob;on county, Tennessee, on
March 3rd, 1858, and departed this life on
Saturday, September 22nd, 1871. Aged 10
years months and IS days.
Death is sad at ali times and under all
circumstances, but more peculiarly so with
our beloved Hugh. He was just budding
into manhood with a bright future before
him; yet in the providence Of Him who do
eth ali things well, he was taken from his
doting parents and affectiOnate brother and
sisters, after an illness of only about thirty
six hours. Hugh was an obedient son, a
fond and loving brother, a trustworthy
friend. and his loss is most keenly felt by
all of his relatives and friends at Rives sta
ton, Tennessee, where he died.
"Thou art gone to the grave. but we will
not deplore thee,
Since God was thy ransom, thy guardian
and guide;
lie gave thee, He took thee, and He will re-
turn thee,
For death has no sting since the Saviour
has died"
Nav his death prove blessing to all Of
his associates and Though Hugh cannot re-
turn to as, we can go to him. May all Of
his young friends strive to i'm. tate his many
viz tues and noble uaits Of character, thai
when they are called to bid adieu to the
scenes of earth, they may strike hands OF
the "beauti!ul shore beyond the shining
river"
ooh how sweet It Will be IN thos, beauti
full lands
That are free fom all sorrow and pain;
With songs on oar lips and with harps il
our hands
To meet our dear friend on,e again.

am seated in this house this 26th
day Of September, 1877. The
18th day of January, 1888, we
landed on Cold Water. That was
a long time ago. Then the Cold
Water bottoms and hills were a
dense wilderness. Cane, iron
weeds and bushes swarmed with
snakes, turkeys, deer and some
bears, with every accompanying
attendant of a new country. The
fields were really patches Of 4 or 5
acres. Scarcely anybody sowed
wheat !; if any one did, he was
looked upon as proud. But those
days are gone and with them the
members of ell the families that
were living at that time, that were
house keepers. There are only
three left-all gone, mostly dead
Mr.. Editor, itmakes me sad to re-
feet and study over forty-four
years, the ups and downs, the sor.
rows and joys, the wars and tur
moils that the people have been
called on to pass through. 1t is
enough for deep reflection, but we
suppose the world and the people
in it will continue to go on with
their ups and downs the same as
ever, sink or swim.
Not much sickness on Cold Wa
ter, though there are some cases
scattered about. The people are
busy grinding up their sorghum
and preparing for sowing their
wheat, except the church goers.

and doing a good business, increas-

Some of the Cold Water P. of Fl

meeting. The reunion CT the sol
diers was the cause of the failure.
