AGood Officer.

The following is deserved
and valued compliment, not on
" TO an excellent officer but to
the whole county. We advan-
ced the oplnien in this paper
two years ago, that if Henry
Henderson, Esq, was elected
Trustee, he would sensibly and
honestly fill the office-that not
one cent of public money would
be misapplicd. The result veri-
fies our prediction-the law has
been faithfully fulfilled as the
following testimonial shows:
"This is to certify that Hen
RY HENDERSON, Trustee for the
county of Lincoln and State of
Tennessee, has this day paid to
this office, the balance in klll

81 The blackberry crol

H% The blackberry crop
promises 10 be very large, and
we renew our annual sug-
gestion, that this delicious fruit
be made source of pecuniary
profit to Lincoln county. Dried
blackberries are now in demand
at Z cents per pound, and if
prepared with care, and kept in
good condition, can always be
readily sold. 1t may be urged,
perhaps, that the price is low.
Well, even if the objection be
correct, that return is better
than nothing-better than to let
the berries remain ungathered,
and thus realize nothing from
them. The demand for them is
yearly increasing, and if we do
not realize upon an article that
grows for US without culture
or cost, other people will. The
money-tlrousands Of dollars
yearly-that could be made to
flow to us will go elsewhere.
We earnestly hope that those
of our people whose immediate
interest it is to prosecute this
profitable industry will not al
low the opportunity to pass un-
improved.

surprising distinctness. 1t was

tremor of the wire while a mes

except at the terminus. A line
