DEAR Beacon: | stated to you
last week that | had been sick tor
three weeks. You may add another
week to that score, but | am well
enough to he anxious TO be up aud
doing, and will write Ii few lines
10 pass away the time.
We had on Monday evening, May
9th, the most washing ran OF the
season. 1t did not extend beyond
this neighborhood. We are having
roo much rain the bottom or low
lands show 1t, and it is telling by
the grass aud weeds on all lands
The crops are looking we'll whera
cultivated. Fall oats are now ready
Tor harvesting. Gardens never,
never better. Fruits Of all kinds
now becoming plentiful. Many of
our apple trees much Of THEN lruit,
but still, in most instances, there
are enough left to do. The May
winds and storms have damaged
fruit trees Il great deal, breaking
limbs and in some places nprooting
,he trees. Some little sickness in
the ncighborhood.
The peace and qaictude Of the
town OF C0oksvilIe was broken last
Saturday by a tiaticutf botwecn two
OF our young mon, tSO as stout AID
as clever AS We have, and Us peace
ub!c. Then you might say, how
was it they fell out? We'll, VIC will
call them Mr.. A. aud Mr.. B. Mr.. a.
had been travelling through Arkan.
kas, his first trip west, and, | sup.
pose was telling of many things he
saw in the wild west. Among 9th.
er sights, he saw u natural bridge
that looked like it vas built before
the war. Mr.. B. was max ing some
tun and sport over the idea, and
asked Mr.. A. how he liked novels.
a.. answered that he could not tell,
that be had never eaton but very
few OF them, and was wholly una
bic to tell whether he liked them
or not. That created a general
laugh, and resulted ia the uforcsa d
fstlcutf. They wero so closely
matched there was no blood split.
bat some very emphatic tnguage
was used. Your correspondent
was not present.
We don't claim anything for thi,
mad dog item, and r very sorry
that we had to kill II pointer
Frank. Yo1 know We are bird
hunters and Will miss him very
much.
We had green corn for dtnr Ell
several days ago. low ID that tor
early? observer.
Not SO very early FOR the Adams
variety, Major. Mr. CaSett and
other good gardeners in Macon,
have pulled up the stalks Of the
early corn, and planted for late
roasting ears. Mr.. q. ought to have
u good garden. lie nurses it all
day, and we've heard he sats up with
it at night. If 1t is left to us wo1l
have to give the premium 10 Mrs
n. s. Murpiley. Her garden was
very early aud very good the

tated by Sherman, and TIT 2c5tmas.

L as the rice Of his retentiu- n Il.
cabinet. Whether this is true o. -.
it IS certain the issuance Of ST. g
document pls ces him beyonl the Pc
OF the Democratic party. While t,e
larger portion of the press of the
South has not dcigned even to pub.
ish the letter, We notice some iew Of
our exchanges quote it with appa.
rent approval lie assumes to be tn,
representative Of the South in the
present administration, AMI placing
himself upon the high plane of duty
essays to warn his southern brethren
Of the danger being brought upo-
their country by their representa-.
tlves in Congress. \ glarng error
i'll the letter is, that he totally il
noreS the declarations Of the header.
of the Investigation, and states that
the object OF the movement is to put
Hayes cut OF the Presidency. liz
makes q direct issue with the south.
ern representatives, and appeals t.
the Southern people to elect men al
the next election who viii frowl
down this movement.
1t is rumored that Col. House, Of
Tennessee, will prepare ap address
soon, in which he will set forth the
position of southern Representative,
on this question, recognizing the fl
nality of the electoral count, and de-
ny emphatically any design to set it
aside. He will farther insist that il
is not only the right, but the duty Of
the Hou,e of Representatives to in
We tlgate any and all electoral frauds
and abuses, with Il view to such leg
islation as may prevent a repetition
in future elections, and to hold the
actors and all who have conniyed at
such practices responsible at the bar
of public opinion. This is the view
we have always entertained of the
course proper to be pursued. Pot
ter, in his published letter, states
this to be the design Of the resolu-
tons, and that the cry Of revolution
and Mexicanization Of the govern
ment is bat Il new edition OF the old

The Board of Supervisors at its
last meeting rejected all the bids
made for the construction of the first
section of the levee on the Macon x
Shuqualak road, and rc-adyertise for
sealed proposals for the same to be
received within the next thirty days,
or before the first Monday in July.
The reason OF the rejection was, that
the BIDS were too high, the lowest
BID being nineteen cents per cubic
yard. According to Captain VII
liams's survey, the frs. section will
contain l4,}lI cubic yards, besides
$50 feet Of t~restlc work. We are
not familiar with the cost Of works
Of this kind, and do not know wneth.
er nineteen cents is too much or not.
We hope that persons familiar with
the cost, will put in their proposals
as low as the work can lie done, by
the first Of July, and that the Board
will accept the best offer, and have
the work commenced at once,
We are afraid some of the mem
bers Of the Board do not sufi GENTLY
appreciate the Importance of the
work. They are afraid the peopl,
will be dissatisfied if they woe an
additional burden of tax, even tho
it be for the construction of perma
nent passable highways to the coun
ty seat. Calculating the cost at nine
teen cents a cubic yard, the total TO.
the whole levee, if it were built il
one yea, would not amount to on
dollar TO a thousand Of taxable prop
erty in the county. The importanc'
of roads leading to the county sea
being passable at all seasons of tn
year, aside from commercial advan
tagcs, and considered merely in a
economical point of view, will b
conceded by any one who will motto
the number Of cases continued ant
passed oven at the spring terms O
our circuit court, on account of tn
absence Of parties occasioned b
waters.

THE Southern Pacific Railway
are in earnest In their intention to
push across Arizona forthwith.
Large shipments of ties are on
their way to Wilmington to be
used in bridging the distance
which separates Yuma from Tue
son. There is no doubt of the fact
that the Southern Pacific people
intend to build Eastward until
they meet somebody coming west
from that section. Their right to
lay track in Arizona cannot be dis
puted. The concession procured
from the Arizona Legislature near
ly two years ago is now the law of
the land, through the failure OF
Congress to rescind 1t. The laws
Of the United States provide that
where Congress neglects to repeal
law of Territorial Legislature
within one year from its passage
the act becomes valid. STANLEY
Matthews introduced such a re-
pealing act in the Uaited States
Senate, it passed that body but
failed of passage in the House.
There is therefore no legal obstacle
to the progress of the Southern Pa.
cific TO the New Mexico line, aud
the presumption is that, will h the
opening Of October, they will pusl
for Tucson at the rate of mile @
day.

Prompt Reform Of Bodily Evils.

The prompt reform of those bodily
evils, enfeebled digestion, incomp plete as.
similatlon. inactivity or the liver, kid
neys and bladder, as we'll as of the ner-
vous symptoms which these ailm ents
are espeeially prone to beget, Is always
accomplished by the use of Hustetter's
stomach bitters, a medicine accredited
by physicians, pronounced pure by ana
lysts and emipently wholesome and
agreeable. Surely such a restorative is
preferable to unpalatable and ind igesti-
ble mineral drugs and unsanctfuned
no Lrums. The nation at large assuredly
thinks SO, iging by the unprece ed ented
demand for the article from Maine 10 the

I'M nrnse orders for II received from trnp-
1cal America, Mexico, the British and

OUR native California fellow cit
tzeus yesterday celebrated the an.
niversary of Mexican Independence
with fitting eclat. The yearly re-
currenee of this event recalls to
mind the superb and almost bound
less empire lost to Spain through
her own intolerance and tyranny.
The achievement Of Mexican Inde-
pendence showed to the world that
tue blood ofthe old Conquistadores
9 i'll ran in the veins of their
