Molino,

Ed. DBsERvER- The weather
has moderated andwheat sowing
and cotton picking have been
resumed with great vigor. a
considerable quantity CT the sta.
pie is yet in the field ana many
acpes-of wheat remain unsowed,
on account Of the inclement
Weather. The present snap has
been the longest and coolest we
lave eyer experienced in the
weather-Iine in this latitude, and
would be deemed severe for the
season en- the lake shores.
The cold has introduced the
pork season early, and a great
deal has been slaughtered during
the past week; it has also, we
suppose, influenced the matri-
monial market as our reporter
informs MS that there are signs
of activity in various quarters,
and on last Sunday our old friend
VIM. Bradford relieved his lone
condition by getting him a part
ner for his trip and train in the
person of Miss Culver. We
congratulate William on his
good fortune, and advise all Of
our benedicts to emulate the ex-
ample.
On Tomorrow thanksgiving
will be celebrated throughout
the U. S. in accordance with the
proclamation of the President
and the Governors Of the sever
al States, tits an ancient and
.commendable practice and we
hope our people may respond,
and meet at their usual places Of
public worship and then raise
their hearts to God in humble
gratitude sfor. Ills many fayofs.
The late political ferment has
led many of us. to neglect or
overlookt the fact that the pro1i-
dence of God directs apa;guides
ultimately all things and after
all our complaints and bicker-
ings, hawa many of US deserve
betterIthanl we receive; or WHICH
Of us five had our our deserts
would not now be ept, off from
even a hope Of salvation? Let
US pause and reflect a little a /.

+ Soon : our State Legislature

wish that the yexed question
of the State debt viii be prompt
ly settled, and that we may. have
"a resume Of domestic tranquility
that will be heartily enjoyed.
The union of the State-credit
clements in the General Assem-
bly, will secure all that is need
|edlp the way of legislation. The
present body will also have the
selection of a suitable person to
represent the State in, the U. S.
Senate for six years from the 4th
of March next. a representa-
tive man of ability should be
chosen, without regard to parti-
zanship. We cannot how recall
aname that combines as many
requisites for the position as that
of Horace Maynard. His ma
tional reputation, added to his
experience in public affairs, his
eminent abilities as orator and
statesman undoubtedly point to
him as one eminently qualified
for that, responsible position.
Since the. demise of Andrew
johnson, there is no one we can
recall SO fitted to represent the
patriotic masses of Tennessee.

.ty Teachers Institute? No no.
