The Wonderful Hat.

On last Saturday night, i'm company
with the ''gude" wife, we made visit
to our neighbor and pastor, Rev. J. :.
Mcdaniel. After short and pleasant
visit we returned home. We have
never estimated ourself as the very
worst sinner in the world, but whatever
may have been our theory, in practice,
we have not been a saint. On leaving
the parsonage we began to feel divinely
impressed, which feeling continued to
increase. Arriving at home, we drew
a chair before the fire, pulled our hat
down over our eyes, and with elbowsO on
knees, and face buried i'm hands, we sat
i'm deep meditation for long time, from
which we were aroused by our compan-
ion who had long since retired and had
aroused from nap and reminded us il
was almost midnight. We arose to re-
tire, but was so deeply impressed with
a religious fervor that we dropped on
our knees and asked for the care and
protection of the ''Great Am" through
the lonely hours of the night. When
We awoke the next morning the reli-
gious fervOr had somewhat subsided,
and we began To tax our mental faculties
to discover thereason for all this. While
thus engaged our eyes happened to fall
on the hat rack, and there hung a
strange hat. After diligent inquiry we
found it to he the pastors hat, which by
mistake we had worn home the night
before. Then the mystery was ex-
planned. The hat from long use had
become thoroughly charged with reli-
gious magnetism or electricity, and
coming in contact with head almost
void of these feelings il acted like a
powerful battery, and the moral, rel-
gious influences rushed into us like air
into II vacuum. The good brothers hat
was returned and our own secured,
but we fear that We will never again he
so deeply impressed religiously.

Eighteen Years In Prison.

Some few years ago, ON Spur creek,
in this county, in getting out thinkers
for the Spur creek mill, a tree frog was
found imbedded in cavity OF an oak
tree. The cavity was about ten inches
long, inches deep and about an inch
wide. The frog had worked back and
forth until the cavity was worn slick.
An examination of the timber showed
a growth of eighteen years over the
cavity. The truth of this can he verified
by many of the best men in the Cool
Spring neighborhood.

In our candidates column appears
to-day the announcement of Mr.. II. i.
Rowe rs Il candidate for the office of
Sheriff of Ohio county. This iS the
second time that Mr.. r. Z. Rowe has
appeared before the people for this of
flee, being the opponent of Mr.. G. w.
Phillips in 1873, and made good race,
and would no doubt have made ii good
and efficient officer il elected AZ he is
already well known throughout the
county, we predict il will take strong
man To beat him.
Andrew Mercer, a miner in the
Emporia mines was killed last Thurs
day 10y being caught under the falling
coal of blast. He had made the blast
the day before, bat as the coal did not
fall he was loosening tup with his pick
when about two tons gave way and
caught him in the fall. Ii killed him
ins family, and mangled him fcarfully.
He WAS Il brother Of the Mercer Bros
proprictors of the Emporia mines, which
are located about half way between
Beaver Dam and McIIenry
John Williams, near Rockport,
went out last week during the high
water Ia cut tree for saw-logs. The
water was some fifteen or twenty feet. 9.
lie went in canoe with aX, saw, din
ncr bucket and all necessary articles
lie missed his calculations, the tree fall
ing the wrong way, across the canoe,
sinking il, carrying William, about ten
feet under the water. Tie got out, but
lost everything else, bursting the canoe.
He can get the saw. AK, &c. after the
water rccedcs, should il ever conclude to
do so.
1t seems that the flats just on the
south edge Of town has been selected by
the town, or at least by some of its citi-
zenS, as the place of deposit for all the
dead carcasses that are donated to the
subsistence of Mr.. B., whose first
name is Turkey. The remains of two
quadrupeds of the genus "Equusr were
hauled and left on this bone-yard last
week, in a short distance of several FAM
lilies living in that end of town. During
spring, summer and autumn the air,
when in motion at all, is generally
stirred by the gentle zephyrs from the
sunny southland and comes To the town
from the very direction of this field of
putrid carcasses. The soft, balmy
breezes are thus laden with the foulest
efliuvia, and to those families on that
side of town the nauseating odor is in
tolerablc. We know of no reason why
the citizens of that part of town should
Toe compelled to act as the smelling com
mittee for the whole town. and in their
behalf and aS one of them, we say we
will not longer he thus imposed upon.
II is unpleasant to III and unhealthy To
the whole town, and the next person
depositing carcass there will have the
law enforced against him, and if he
cannot he reached in this way we'll or
ganize and have the carcass hauled back
tothe place from whence it was brought.
We wish ii distinctly understood our
end of town will not longer submit to
this outrage.
