There is a man living in the 18th
civil District who worked all day
last Sunday, and shaved up that night
to 90 to Sunday School on the next
day. and was much surprised when
he found that he had worked on Sum
day.
Last Saturday Mr. John Clark and
Mr. VIM. Bennett, on passing Mr.
Pendergrass' place with their team,
the mules took fright at some object
and ran away. Mr. Clark jumped
from the wagon soon after the mules
started to run. Mr. Bennett held on
for some time until the wagon was
thrown over, when his hip was badly
injured, and his feet becoming entan-
gled in the lines, he was dragged sew
eral yards. The wagon was scattered
over the road for two miles. Mr. Ben
nett was laid up for several days and
has recovered from his injuries.

COUNTY NEWS.

Esquire Cox, of the 4th district,
was elected County Surveyor last
Monday.
We regret to learn that DR. Durly
is very ill with an attack of pneumonia
and typhoid fever.
We never saw more wheat growing
in this county than at present, and
never saw it look finer. Our farmers
certainly have a splendid prospect so
far.
There must be at least one hun
dred thousand dog>wood trees-more
or less-in sight of the Trenton and
Milan road, and every one of them
in full bloom.
The roads between here and Tren-
ton have improved very much during
the past month. The overseers and
hands are working faithfully. There
are still some ugly places, though,
which need work.
j. P. Hale, living near Pickettville,
has twenty acres of wheat already
headed out. He sent US a stalk,
which was pullef last Friday, which
measures thirty inches high, and has
the head pretty well formed. If the
weather continues warm, this will be
ready for harvest about the first of
May. Northern immigrants will do
well to consider this.
A few days since Granville Hunt
caught the big red fox which has
been run so often near Eldad. With
his dogs he had the fun all to himself,
running him int) his hole, and then
having to dig out two dogs. He
caught him near Simmons bridge.
Reynard weighed twelve and one>half
pounds, was eighteen inches high,
and three feet five inches long. Mr.
Hunt justly considers this quite
lucky achievement, as many Old hunt
ers and fine dogs have tried to capture
this old fox.

An SSlE Scandal.

a horrible scandal has recently
been set afoat in this county. 1t is
rumored that young lady at Ruth
erford Station; to spite her father,
who Objected TO her marrying the
man of her choice, deliberately threw
herself into the embraces Of negro
man, thus disgracing herself and ren>
dering frantic her family. She is
said to be beautiful and accom-
plished young woman, and has been
quite a belle in her neighborhood.
For the sake of decency and good
morals, we hope the story has been
exaggerated.

Last Sunday, during the absence of
the jailer, some one raised a lower win
dow of the jail, entered, and, getting
possession of the keys, liberated two
negroes-the only occupants. When
last seen the escaped men were going
in the direction of Mckenzie, to which
place telegram was sent, but up to
this time they have not been captured.

The Murphys are gradually gain

fields are being worked.
A. young man named Willie Holt,
while engaged at work upon one of
the public roads in the Chris;masyille
district, had his leg broken by log,
which he was was helping to carry,
falling. We sympathize with Holt,
and regret the accident happened, as
we fear the roads will never be work.

Of breaking their legs.
Not often in the life of a country
journalist does it become necessary 10
chronicle an occurrence so disgusting
in its details as the following: There
lives about seven miles east of town a
Young girl named Donald, who has
recently become a mother, without
being a wife, and it has transpired
that the girls aunt's husband. one
AnsoL Fuller, was the father
of the child. 1t seems that the
girl is about eighteen years old, and
very beautiful, being quite a belle
with the rustic beaux of the neigh
borhood. Fuller is about forty, tall
and fine looking, is keeper OF the
county asylum, and has been a shin
ing light in the Methodist Episcopal
church at Liberty Hall. The girl
has always been IN the habit of visit
iag his family, and he soon grew init
mate with her, robbed her OF all that
makes a woman pure and happy, and
left her crushed and Token hearted,
to bear as best she could the shame,
ignominy and disgrace of ruined
girl. Since she gave birth to the
child, we understand. several male
relatives have threatened violence to
Fuller. Last Tuesday legal proceed
ings were instituted against him, and
he was required to make provision for
the support of the child.

a heart-rending accident happened
near Hope Hill last Monday. Elias
Butler, aged about forty years, was
burning some log heaps, when he was
suddenly attacked with fit and fell
into the fire. No one was present, but
it is supposed that he recovered con-
sciousness very soon, as his body was
found over one hundred yards distant
in some brush. His clothing was all
burned off and his body badly burned.
He was good citizen, and was well
thought Of by all.
