The Athens Mob.

A mob of two or three thousand
meA attempted to hang Bales, the
wife murderer, at Athens last Fri
day. They tore the roof from the
jail and took him out, and tied a
rope about his neck and threw it
over a limb, and then called for
some man to pull, but out Of the
thousands not one could be found
who was mad enough to pull. The
sheriff with five or six men then
without difficulty took him away
from the infuriated(?) mob and
took him back to nestle quietly and
happily in Jail until the Supreme
Court sits down on him. He is
certain to hang, but a mob will
never do it. We have been made
the happy recipient of the moose
that was around Bales neck, which
he is said to have worn placidly and
as proudly as a big boy with his
first side board collar. We have
placed it in our museum as a verit-
able hanging ornament, and the
sight of it will nerve us to gather
up the latest moose for our readers
and thereby rope in new subscrlb
ers. AS we sit now and gaze at it,
hanging up amongst the cobwebs
beside the time worn shuck collar
worn by Geo. w. Washington when
he pulled out the eyeteeth of the
British Lion, we see a sight worth
relating: The moose is about a
mans neck and the rope seems to
be endless, coiling about through
the streets of a town, into saloons,
up back alleys, through stables and
stores and tanyards and parlors
and slaughter-pens and law offices.
Thousands of men, crazy for blood,
seize it and madly rush through
the streets, while the boys yell and
the dogs bark and the hogs grunt
in raving discord. The sun refuses
to shine until the clouds get out OF
the way) and the graves give mp
their dead (silence as usual). They
reach a sapling and dash the rope
over a twig, when, 10! every mans
hand loses it's grasp and the rope
lies listless on the ground. Silence
profound reigns so that you could
hear a pin drop, and just as fellow
was about to drop one to amuse the
congregation, the man in the moose
slowly arose and drew the rope
loose and shining said: "Friends,
Athenians, countrymen, and also
some from Giles and Lincoln, some
fellow lend me a good ear in place
of this one that got yanked off in
the play. Ye that have cows to
shed, prepare to shed them now, for
the winters blasts are coming when
no man knows who's going to set
up the Thomas Henry and Jere
miah. These gaping wounds speak
volumes, illustrated In steel plate
and bound in gilt and cloth, and by
these tokens swear that this per
Torrance is such a drag that we'll
dismiss the audience" Here the
sheriff stepped up with squirt gun
and summoned six sick men with
darn needles and charged the mob,
''and away they flew with a merry,
merry hum and told the sheriff to
kiss their bum" And the liberated
man was borne upon willing shoul
ders through the streets and sits in
triumph behind the bars.

come a power in Tennessee which no
other journal ever attained; and its in
fluence is only surpassed by its popu-
larity, not only in Tennessee, but In all
the adjoining States.
The readers of the CITIZEN will also
find that the miscellaneous columns Of
the AMERICAN embrace all that is inter-
esting and useful, in the various fields
of human enterprise; and it can be
safely commended, as a most excellent
and valuable paper I'm the Household,
the Workshop, the StOrehouse, and to
all people in every vocation.

Death Of a Coed Man.

The last issue of the Moulton
(Ala.) Advertiser contained a no.
tice of the death Of Hon. Hodge L.
Stephens, n, OF Lawrence county,
Ala, which occurred on the 9TH
inst. at his home near Mt. Hope, in
his 10Th year. Thus passed from
earth to Heaven the spirit of one
of the purest, best men we ever
knew. He represented his county
first and last sixteen years in the
senate and lower house of his State
Legislature and declined numerous
strong solicitations to allow the use
of his name for those and other
similar honors. But he had no
political ambition, and preferred a
different sphere of usefulness. In
his neighborhood he was honored
and loved far and wide for his be
nevolence, christian charity, liber
atty and unobtrusive piety. He
was a pillar of the G. P. Church, a
prominent Mason and the arbiter
of all neighborhood differences. If
two neighbors disagreed, or wanted
an equitable settlement made or
contract drawn they always called
upon him, and his decision was
law, because it was known to be
just. Possessed of superior iutelli-
gence and large experience, and
living remote from the county seat,
he became finally the legal adviser,
spiritual counsellor, and almost
judge and jury of the neighborhood.
He was eminently good and use
full man whose heart was ever over
flowing with the milk of human
kindness. We knew him long and
well and loved him as if he had been
bone of our bone and blood of our
blood. We shall never cease to re-
member his goodness to us and
ours during the war. 1t is nOto-
rious fact that no rebel or needy
person ever called upon him for
help without getting it. He liter
orally gave his substance away to
the hungry and needy during the
war. He FED dozens and some
times scores in day, and it was
rare for day or night to pass with
out test of his benevolence, and
he was never known to turn one
away hungry. Peace to his ashes.
He leaves an aged and devoted
widow to mourn his death, to whom
we offer sincere sympathy.

Co. K. First Tennessee, c. S. A,
{ Capt. Fiournoy's Company held
reunion on Richland near Mai.
Stacy's farm last Saturday. They
had world of barbecue and other
eatibles, but the day was so inclem
ent that it could not be properly en-
jOyed. The reunions are not so
much for enjoyment however, as to
keep alive the spark of brotherly
love engendered in the minds and
hearts of the boys while undergoing
the hardships of war. This feeling
can never die, born as it was in the
haunts of suffering and exposure
and baptised with the blood of
messmates and brothers. No
more gallant company enlisted in
the war, and no band of men ever
had more chivalrous leader than
the lamented Flournoy. Proudly
do they cherish his memory as one
of the bravest soldiers that drew
sword for the South, and then as
one of the purest and most genGr-
Gus men that ever tread the walks
of citizen life. The next meeting
will be held year hence in the Bal
lentlne bottom below town.

Things are inclined to move on
quietly in this part of the moral
vineyard. Now and then few dis
cordant notes are heard from some
one whose feelings have been made
the prey of some backbiter or busy
body, who are always looking out
whom they may deyour.
The farmers, like the busy ants,
are preparing for the coming winter.
Corn has fallen below the expecta-
tions of many since the fodder has

about MONDAY time.

General John SkiHngton.

We learn from the dispatches
that Gen. John Skiffington is dying.
His brave and venturesome spirit
is doubtless now beyond earth and
earthly things. He entertained a
strange infatuation. He believed
that he could defy the yellow fever.
He believed himself capable of
wrestling with the monster and
living. But he is a victim and
another monument Of the fol
ly of fighting an enemy that
walks in darkness and riots amid
the sunshine. AS we write his
spirit is doubtless exploring the
mysteries of the mysterious beyond.
Whether happily or not, 1t is not
for us to say. His character had
many sides. He was not a chris
tian in the sense Of faith in the God
man Christ. But he was a brave
man in the sense of trust In an all
wise and powerful and merciful
God. 1t is not for us to criticise
his theology, or to apply to him the
rules of christian orthodoxy. He
died as he had lived, q believer in
the wisdom of nature, with all that
is meant by the term. His charac-
ter had many sides. We will not
undertake to analyze them, however,
but in response to that human feel
ing which is honored in the keep
ing refer 10 those traits that were
noblest. He was talented man.
In him genius was toned and regu-
lated by common sense. He was
not brilliant and yet he was strong.
He was not a logician and yet he
was a man of facts and a reasoner.
He was not a rhetorician, and yet
in dealing with facts he was most
powerful. He was not an orator,
and yet few men moved a jury as
he did. We have seldom met a
more genial and companionable
man. His charity for the faults of
others was infinite. He seemed to
believe that men were better than
they appeared to be, and in his big
heart he had q word and an act of
kindness for all who suffered or
were oppressed. A more hearty or
companionable man in all the rela-
tions of social life we never knew.
And on his untimely grave will be
shed many a regret and tear by
hosts of friends and companions
throughout West Tennessee. But
he is dying or dead, and it only re-
mains for us, on behalf of the peo-
pie of the interior of West Tennes-
see, to record our deep sorrow at
his untimely taking of. In this
and surrounding counties he was
known well and esteemed for his
many manly virtues, for his brave
independence of thought, and for
his charitable deeds. With all who
knew him, we join in sincere and
fearful sorrow at his death. God
grant him peace.

Parker's Store.

The protracted meeting at He
bron closed out last Thursday
night with three conversions and q
general revival of religious interest
as the result. The glad some shouts
of the religious people were heard
all elong the line, indicating that
victory flashed along the ranks and
perched upon the Gospel banner as
it was unfurled to the Heavenly
breezes. Shouting is indicative of
soul overlooking with happiness
and peace that passes understanding.
L love to see people rejoice in the
blissful prospect of an eternal
home beyond the river, but / love
better to see them act out their re-
ligion in their everyday life. Let
its refining and elevating influences
pervade their entire being, control
their weights and measures and
gauge their actions and intercourse
with their fellowman. A man
should not keep all of his religion
in heart; it should find a place in
his purse as well. Religion has
claims upon one as well as the 9th
er, and when we fail to respond to
it's demands we are culpsble in the
sight of Heaven. The support of
the ministry is certainly our bound
en- duty, and it becomes us to pay
to the last farthing our minister's
salary, for surely the "hireling is
worthy of his hire" l do not cen
sure any one for neglecting this
important duty, but hope it is not
wilful on their part. We must
bestir ourselves or Hebron will be a
thing of the past. Ichabod will be
written il blazing characters over
her doors indicating that her glory
has departed. Our pastor is a
christian gentleman and worthy of
his salary. He was assisted in
his Hebron meeting by the Rev. Z.
A. Parker of the North Alabama
Conference. who is a young man of
rare preaching talent and is des-
tined to be a shining star in the
galaxy of Alabama preachers, We.
claim him as our own because he
was one of us until he entered his
chosen field Of labor. We hope the
bright star of his destiny may lead
him on to higher spheres of useful
ness and perfection in his high call
ing. The Rev. Mr.. Mckenzie of
the G. P. Church delivered one ser
mon during the services. Your
correspondent in company with
Messrs. j. p. Woodland and j. NJ.
Parker attended the Quarterly Con-
ference at Old Lynnville last Satur-
day. They had a pleasant and
profitable session, but the finances
were short. Rev. j. D. Barbee pre-
sided with dignity, and preached
one of the clearest sermons that
has ever been our fortune to hear.
We shared the generous hospital
ties of that kind people and thought
it was good for us to be there.

never fails to get encOred in Pulaski
where the people not only admire
his transcendant talents, but love

published, composed by himself
and dedicated to Mrs. S. r. Griffith.
1t is full of melody and intricate
passages of rayishing harmony and
was PLAYED in that enchanting man
ner so peculiarly his own. 1t is ar
ranged with the piano, and with
the assistance of Mrs. Griffith he

AS there are no posters announc
ing the opening of the Fair, nor
other means of acquainting the pub
lie with the time, save the Gaia
logues, which are limited in num-
Der, we hope our readers will make
it generally known in their neigh
bOrhoods that it opens on the 7th
proximo, and that the premium list
is larger and more valuable than
ever before. The interest is i'm
mense and we can safely predict a
better Fair than we have ever had.
Stores and shops and other public
places throughout the country
should have a copy of the Gaia
logue in a conspicuous place for
people to examine. Some one may
miss a chance to take in some valu-
able premium by not seeing the
List. Everybody prepare to come.
