CORRESPONDENCE.

VAN buren,, Tenn, June 18th, 1880.
Mr.. EDITOR Our crops arc look
ing very well and are in pretty good
fix. There is very little wheat in this
neighborhood and the quality not very
good, owing to rust and other proba-
bic causes. Oats are low, but the
late rains may make them grow high
enough t, cut.
There was an old bomb shell lying
around hSre, relic of the late unpleas-
antness, that had been kicked and
knocked about the yard and played
with by the children for several years
as if there was no harm in it. At last
couple of boys got hold of it and con-
cludcd they would see what was in it.
So they went to work to bore into it.
They failed to accomplish the desired
effect, but succeeded in getting Il small
hole into the hollow perhaps the old
touch hole or fuze hole. The hole being
too small to get anything out they took
the shell to ditch and put it in there
and poured a load or two of powder
down by the touch hole and put a
slow match to it and retreatcd to
safe distance to await results. They
were not kept waiting long before it
went off ike a clap of thunder and
raised such cloud of smoke and dust
as to make one think Of days gone by
when such reports were of frequent oc-
cuTrance.

VAUDEVILLE, Tenn, May 29th, 1880.
Mr.. EDITOR Although there is a
considerable contest going on at this
time between the farmers of this section
and one General Green, they conclu-
ded to ground their weapons of warfare
on yesterday the 28th, and go out and
witness the closing exercises of Prof.
BoOne's School, at Lafayette Academy.
Notwithstanding the unfavorable sur
roundings Git having rained nearly all
day. the exercises were everything
that could be expected, the scholars
all acquitting themselves with credit,
rejecting the same on their teacher,
showing that Prof Boone was capable
of training the young mind how to
shoot, and that he had SPARED no pains
in trying to instruct and advance his
pupils. The examination Of the classes
were pronounced by all who witnessed
them to be good. When the hour for
dinner had arrived, and intermission
was given, and beneath the Oak tree
that stood near by bountiful repast
was spread and the crowd gathered
around, when then and there COM
menced the most interesting part of the
days exercises. While the inner man
was being refreshed various topics
were discussed, the crops, the schools,
the coming man for President, and by
the young people l judge from indica-
tions, another subject was discussed.
And after all had partaken and gone
away satisfied, think there were of
the fragments more than seven baskets
full gathered up, after dinner the ex-
ercises were resumed and several other
classes were examined, after which
came the Declarations which were
good and well delivered, and brought
forth at times hearty good laughs, and
occasionally an old fashioned Amen !;
from Uncle jeff Nicely. When it was
announced the school exercises were
closed, repeated calls were made by the
audience for the Rev. H. c. Rossamon
who came forward and interested the
crowd for a considerable length of time,
with very appropriate and interes-
ting speech, when through, Esq John
w. Wilkes was called for who respOn-
ded in his usual humorous style, in a
well timed and appropriate talk, both
to patrons and pupils Of the school, at
ter which the exercises of the day were

Mr.. EDITOR doubtless our
worthy observer" is waiting patient
ly to hear from Fraud and Martha
concerning the cold hen" We wish
to inform him that we were wrongfully
informed in regard to the fate of those
chicks, and now correct the error by
stating that nothing is known concern
ing their whereabouts, except by some
close Observer who after improving his
opportunity bore them hence. We
give our worthy friend Cwho assumes
the name of Observer a cordial invi-
tation to visit our village and observe
for himself concerning the lament
ed fate of that same hen. We advise
you to no longer howl about the una
voidablc departure Ofchicks, but come
into our midst, where you. can sing
songs of love among the Roses, and
have our Christian influence to prevent
you assuming the air of Fraud. You
can partake of few doses of physic.

may ward off their approach.

Investigation

Every man should be willing, and we
think should be anxious to investigate every
thing which is so likely to benefit all man
kind as the discovery of KcndalPs SPAWN
Cure. because it is now being used on human
flesh with most remarkable beneficial re-
suits for rheumatism and deep seated pains,
and it has proved by experience that is in
equally as good for human flesh as for any
animal. 1t is penetrating and powerful
and yet it can be used full strength with
perfect safety on a child as well as a grown
person. For all blemishees on horses, it
never has had an equal. Read the adver-
tiscmcnt for KendaIPs SPAWN Cure.

TY, TEXAS. June LIST, 1880.
Mr.. EDIToR:-The corn crop here
is said to be the most promising that
has ever been raised in Grayson coun-
ty, has been laid by in fine condition
and is now tasseling. Cotton also
looks well but is at present getting in
the weeds and grass this is caused by
the immense amount of rain that has
fallen for several days and continues
to fall almost incessantly. 1t reminds
me of a remark that heard an old gen
tleman make in Tennessee concerning
the weather in Texas, he said that
when it rains in Texas it never ceases
and when it ceases it never rains
again. His saying seems to be verifi-
ed at this time but, however, we hope
to have return of good weather i'll a
few days which will enable us to come
out victorious over General Green.
The wheat and oat crop is not very
heavy in this section, owing to the dry
Winter and Spring, but is to be very
fine in some portions of the state. The
fruit crop is very good, especially
peaches and grapes, both of which
grow to perfection in this portion of
the state. Grape culture would be
paying business to any person that
would enter into it upon large scale
here. We have two varieties of wild
grapes here, the post oak and mustang,
they are near the size of the tame
grape and is said to make excellent
wine; they grow in great abundance
along the stream and in the cross tim
Der. Land in this county is very high
the prices ranging, ten to twenty dol
lars for improved and raw land aver
aging about Ave dollars per acre but a
few miles West of this in Cook county
raw land can be bought at verp low
figures, improved land also very rea
from stock raisers that wants
to 60 farther west where the range is
better and land much cheaper than it
is here. The range is very limited
here and nearly all of the large herds
of cattle are being driven farther west |
A herd passed through here few days
since that was said to contain over
thirteen thousand head.
We are blessed with very good soce-
ty here. The country is dotted over
with churches and school houses and
no one need be deprived of the priv
ilege of attending church Of Sabbath
ichool every Sunday. The people
here seem to be wide awake to the inn
pOrtance of education as is evident by |
thenumerous common and high schools |
in all parts Of the country. That de-
serves praise for a country so young |
in years and for one which ere many |
years elapse will in all probability be
one of the most important states of the
Union. There is some excitement
over politics here, the Grcenbackers
seem to be gathering strength very
first. Yours very truly, etc,
