The announcement that Rev. j. Homer
Parker had declined the call to become
pastor of the Congregational church and
was going to leave US so soon caused
much regret among our citizens, and all
feel that in losing Mr.. Parker and his
estimable wife the community sustains
loss that will be deeply felt. The best
wishes of all go with them to their new
field of labor.
We understand very exaggerated re-
ports are in circulation in other places
in regard to our village being visited
with the small pox. We would say that
there is one case of variolOid in the viii
lage, and only one. That the Board of
Health, as soon as the case was known,
took immediate steps to prevent the
spread Of the disease, placing a strict
quarantine, and ordering the health
physician to vaccinate all who might
apply free of cost, as per act of the Leg
islature. We believe the precautionary
measures taken will cOnfine the disease
to its present locality, and that no fears
need be felt of its spreading. The pres
ent case is in fair way for recovery,
and there is but little excitement In the
village i'm regard to it.

For an irritated Throat, Cough, OF
Cold, Browns Bronchial TrOches" are
offered with the fullest confidence in
their efficiency. The administration of
medical preparations in the form of a
LOzenge is, of all modes. the most eligi-
BILE and convenient, more especially as
regards cough remedy. A Lozenge
therefore, from its demulcent ingred-
tents, which lubricate the throat, and
thus allay the irritation induced by
coughing, is infinitely to be preferred to
syrups. Browns Bronchial TrOches'
are only in boxes with the name of the

the same ourselves, and i'm that way you trade
directly with us all the way through, thus
| saving the trouble caused by ordering the

At Cheboygan the shooting excitement
continues undated. Challenges are

excellent shooting, but our boys took all

when up here the last time, when they
were getting so beautifully left behind.
"Our boys" are just as conceited as ever,
and if your boys think they can beat
them, either at base ball or shooting, we
think they can be accommodated to a
trial.
The suggestion made few weeks
since, that the new steamer being built
by Smith Brothers for the inland route
be named "The City of Cheboygan" meets
with favor 80 far as we have heard any
expression, and number have spoken of
it, and the suggestion has been made that
the citizens of Cheboygan furnish colors
and present them to the boat in case the
above name is adopted. We like the
suggestion and think there ought to be
no trouble in raising a sufficient sum to
provide fine set of cOlOrs should the
matter be taken hold of and worked up.

The Cattle Scourge.

It would be tedious task for us to
get up the names Of all the people in
this section of country who have lost
cattle by the disease which is still
raging. The mortality seems to be
confined almost wholly to mich cows,
and the disease attacks the blooded and
est-cared.for as readily as it does the
scrub and uncared-for stock. What the
disease il we are unable to affirm.
Some say it is murrain, but few 9TH
ers, who seem well-posted, say it is the
rinderpest-a disease that has killed so
many cattle in England and the other
old countries. In this connection it has
been suggested that some action should
be taken to the end that all cattle, as
soon as dead, should be either burned or
buried. In England this is the law.
And We are sure that the atmosphere
for miles around Winchester is poisoned
with the exhalations from numerous
dead COWS in all directions. A friend at
our elbow suggests that it is the yellow
fever the COWS are dying with-just as
hogs and chickens die with the cholera.
And we are half.inclined to agree with
our friend. We believe that most OF
the great contagious that afflict human
ity for series of years, finally pass into
animals of lower order, and thus thu
world is cursed in all its parts, and We
can truly shy there is no Partially
shown. BE this as it may, we are re
quested to publish the following as 9
sure remedy for the present COW disease
provided the remedy is administered a'
soon as the animal is taken:
pound of epson salts;
4 ounces of ground ginger;
teaeup of molasses
Put these into n quart Of lager beef
and drench the cow-that is, give thu
dose to her inwardly-and she will re
cover.
Our own idea is, to remove you
stock to some other locality as soon a
one il taken sick. 1t is best, We believe
to remove the stock from the cause thai
Try to remove the cause.

Episcopal Benefit Concert.

We wish there had been a larger au-
dience last Thursday night at the Win
chester Normal to enjoy the musical
performances of DIR. Won Meycrhotf and
his pupils. eve guess that the we'd
ding ut a church in town that night
drew many who would have gone to the
Concert.) But the audience was com
posed largely of lovers of music, and
they were all delighted. The "Magnct-
ic Waltz" sung by Miss Jessie Hough-
ton, it is not too much to say, perhaps,
was the best soprano solo by home tai
ent ever heard in this town. The au.
dience expressed their delight in the
most unmistakable manner. 1t is diff
cult to tell if Miss Edith .Saxton's per,
Torrance or appearance was the more
beautiful. Master Harry Saxton was a
decided success. Miss Jessie Hough-
tons piano playing was effective and
brilliant; and her adaptation and I'm.
Outstanding, the expression and shadings
given to her accompaniment, were ex-
1uisitc taste. She is blessed with a
voice that many "stars" Of the stage
would be glad to have.
We want more such Concerts. They
act as a wholesome emulation upon our
musical students.

Why Fayetteville Is for state
Credit.

by special request Of citizens of Fay
ettevilie wepublish the following from
the Fayetteville Observer:
"As n special local reason why Fay
ettevillc is for State credit, we answer :
In the year 1866, as we now remember,
there was II public meeting in Fayette-
vile composed Of the best citizens Of
Lincoln county. That meeting request
ed the directors of the Winchester Il
Alabama railroad to convene their
board and take steps to ask the Brown
low Legislature to issue bonds to repair
and relay the iron on the road. The
directors, six from Franklin county and
six from Lincoln county, all Democrats,
met at Salem, in Franklin county.
They passed a resolution in the board
unanimously, asking Brownlow's Legis.
laturc to issue the bonds, and appoint.
ing Gen. Bright and Gen. Farquharson
to 90 down to Nashville to persuade said
Legislature to issue the bonds. They
did 90 and We're successful. The
Brownlow Legislature, under the per.
suasive eloquencc Of Gen. Bright and
Gen. Farquharson, issued 1856, 900 in
bonds. The road was rebuilt with the
proceeds. Gen. Bright and Gen. Far
quharson were paid 81 900 for their in
valuable services in procuring the
Brownlow Legislature to ISSUE thest
bonds. This payment, it is due Gen
Bright to say, was ordered by the boart
Of directors and approved by the stock
holders. just here we ask our low.ta,
friends, Ito you believe Gen. Farquhar
son or Gen. Bright would ask any Leg
islature to issue Illegal or unconstitu
tional bonds for any purpose? Woul'
they not have laid themselves liable t
the charge Of obtaining money unde
false pretcnces if they had procured tn
issuance of these bonds, as directors c
the W. Il A. railroad had directed thei
President to sell them, and then, afte
they had fallen into the hands of innc
cent purchasers, had dared to open thei
lips and say they were either illegal o
unconstitutional?
But to return to Fayetteville. Thu
railroad was rebuilt with these bonds
What has been the effect? The taxable
property in Fayetteville in 1868 wa
only 100000, now it is 5000, 900. Al
increase Of $4,000 in twelve years
But this effect did not stop here. 1t ha.
been the direct cause Of the building OF
three Or four turnpikcs into our town.
But for the railroad the wooden mills
and Touring mills, near the depot,
would not have been here. The two
banks, with their aggregate capital OF
$3.50, 900, would not now be here. But
for the Brownlow bonds we would not
have the four or five grain merchants
we have, ready to pay Nashville and
even Chattanooga prices for the pro
duets Of the farms"

A TRUE SNAKE SToRY.-Mr. "Stan"
benson, well-kaown to most of the peo-
pie in this county ~ reliable gentle
man, killed a chicken-snake at his home
near Winchester the other day. The
snake had just crawlcd from under his
dwelling, and was the largest one Of the
kind he ever saw. Upon examination
he found the tail of another snake pro-
truding from the mouth Of the snake
Just killed. When pulled out it proved
to be a black snake, and was two inches
longer than the chicken-snake that had
swallowed it. This is true, beyond a
doubt.
