considered "a slr csai compliment to be
spoken of % fIail aud delicate. They
forget that the naturally delicate face
aud petite figure are very fferent
from the pale and disc se-stricken
faces that IN ct us in The city borough

through our crowded drawing rooms.
IF disease were Questionable, as it
ought to be. not lady in the land but

can give. Ladies should remember
that much as gentlemen may profl 80

amss to give you few lines from our
growing little place, We are situated
on a fork Of Bakers Creek, near the
old Bakers Greek Church, which has
been place of worship for our gard
fathers ard fathers, and is now the
place ofwoFsbip of the third and fourth
generations, and Is in prosperous con-
d.tion under the management of Rev.
Donald Mcdonald. He is one of our
best Christian workers, aud deyotes
work Of Christ. He has Oeen holding
2 pTOtracted meeting at McCOnnelPs
School House, three miles north of this
place, which resulted in doing , great
deal of good.
The farmers in this section are al
most all in tolerably good circum-
stances and are doing pretty fair bus
mess farming. The weather has been
very good fOf the past week, and all
are engaged in planting corn and sow
ing oats, preparing for a new crop. We
are looking forward for a good crop
year, though we DON'T feel worthy Of
enjoying such blessing.
We will not go into the details Of the
sad accident that happened to our
court house, which was destroyed by
fire, but will mention il again when
things develop more. We feel very
sad over the condition Of our Stale and
our county. We do not expect much
from our present Legislature we re-
greet to cay it, but can't help expressing
our honest opinion, though we must
live in hopes, if we die in despair.
