the M. e. church in this place Saturday
evening, to fair audience. When we say
Mr.. Winchel is master Of his profession,
we are only reiteratlng the sentiment Of
those best acquainted with him as a teach
er Of vocal music. It would occupy too
much Of your space to notice all OF the
meritOriOus pieces, and their rendition.
'Only dream of home, solo, duet and
chorus, was very fine. A triO-'Over the
dark, blue sea, was perfectly charming.
A solo and chOrus-'Reme the old
folks at home, was very creditably execu-
ted considering the singers we're amongst
the younger members Of the class. But
when Henry Noble sang "Bring me my
harp" it seemed that we were standing up
on the thresholds Of two worlds with the
gates ajar and that we were getting fore
taste Of the music Of the spheres. The con-
cert was counted a success.

Yesterday about p. m, while the wind
was blowing a gale, the barn of VIM. G.
Sexton took fire from some corn-stalks that
had been burning a few rods of, but had
seemingly died out. The fire ran through
the barn so rapidly, that it was impossible
to save it, and it was burned to the ground,
and with it a two horse wagon, moving
machine, several tons Of hay, yearling
colt, a SOW and twelve pigs, sleigh, some
wheat aud oats, and two out buildings. At
least 90 men were on the spot as soon as
they could get there, and doubtless saved
his house. The barn and contents were
insured in the Ohio Farmers for $1,000.
Such was the violence Of the wind, that
the fire was blown across the street and
burned William Buffers barn. and & small
frame building that stood by its side.

Supervisory Bonds.

One Of our neighborhood exchanges says:
eve are told that it is the common prae-
tice among many Trustees, to recognize
such Supervisors without bonds being filed,
and thai this habit began at the time
when the officer was required to stamp his
bond. That the pay and emoluments OF
his Office we're not sufficient to warrant
such extravaganza, sc. Doubtless, in all
cases when the bond is mentioned in the
law, the officer should give one, else the
question may arise In the discharge OF his
duties, is he legally an officer, legally quail
flied, and will the law protect HIM in his
Official acts, as a Supervisor? He is cloth
ed with more authority than the President,
being authorized to enter upon the prem
ises Of another and appropriate his proper
ty to public uses; dig bitches, cut water
courses, move his fences, and this without
committing trespass, provided he has been
legally qualified, See Sec. 1915, Revised
Statutes"

There has been, however, a great in
crease in these ten years by interstate

Texas in particular has benefited by
immigration. The profits of stock-rais-
ing, which has become great industry,
have tempted thousands to go to the
State and take their money with them,
and this has caused Il demand for mer-
chants and mechanics which the North
has freely supplied. There has been an
increase also from the extension of rail-
way lines and the development of new
fields Of labor in uncovering her miner
al resources. Arkansas has profitcd in
the same way, only to Il less extent than
Texas. Good government, careful re-
gard Of the States credit and cheap
lands have made the waste places Of
Georgia glad and peopled her cities more
thickly. FLORIDA has had great influx
of health-seekers who became perma-
nent residents and the success Of these
in fruit growing has brought thousands
in their train. Northern capital has un-
locked the mines of Virginia and North
ern men are working them, while parts
of that State have been colonized by
Englishmen in large numbers, and
Northern and foreign skilled labor has
found employment in the factories of
Richmond, Lynchburg and Danville.-
Tennessee and North Carolina lands
been cleared and titled by colonies sent
out by societies in Old and New Eng
land. West Virginia has been overrun
by Ohioans and Pennsylvania, and rail-
roads have explored the Businesses of
her mountains and exposed the treasures
of iron and coal, to which people from
distant States and countries have flocked
without waiting for second call
South Carolina and Louisiana, while be-
hind in the race, have made some head
way since the downfall of the carpet
baggers; white labor has more than
taken the place of colored fugitives in
Mississippi, and northern Alabama has
fallen into the hands of iron masters
and their employees.
