The moonlight dance given by MIR
and Mrs. James Wills, a few evenings
since, was certainly-a success. That
the young people thoroughly en-.
joyed the occasion could be seen from
their beam;ng eyes and smiling faces,
as they pfomenaded beneath the leafy
bows and engaged in the merry
dance.

SPENCER, TENN.

Spencer was enliyened to-day by
the presence Of the Grand Parisian
Show, something quite novel in Spen-
Ger. The streets aud square were fill
ed with jeans pants anu calico dress
es-style lS40. OF course the stu
dcnts of the Burrltt College did not
attend the show. Oh, no! They had
too much respect for themselves aud
their president who got up in Chapel,
read few rules about expulsion, If
any one went Off the college grounds
without permission, aud then in
pleading tones, kindly and sympa-
thetically asked the young ladies aud
gentlemen not to go, and, to their
credit not single student offered TO
go or even hinted such thing.
Burritt is still moyihg on through
all this drouth as though nothing had
ever happened. 1t opened up this
session with about one hundred and
thirty students. But if this dry
weather. continues much longer she
will have very poor prospects next
spring for q big school,
We have not had q rain of any con-
sequence since about the twenty.fifth
of June, and hundreds of acres of
timber are dying for want of rain.
The forests begin to look like 1t was
fall instead OF summer. About eight
miles from here there is two hundred
acres Of fine timber that is all dead

Corn is dry enough to cut and
shock, and people look down in the

Mormon Converts.

A German who came over with o
party Of Mormons was interviewed
by a reporter. BE puffed immense
volumes of smoke from an old.fash-
ioncd Schleswig Ilolstein, aud gazed
at the reporter moodily. The inter-
view is thus given:
"IIave you any idea you will like

and wiping off his chin with great de-
liberation, II guess | found me oud

"Dot vas my beesnees! Oof | feel

AS he said this, the German con-
vert replaced his pipe, scovled as ter
ribly as the lympalbic condition OF
his system would permit, and strutted
away. Further on an knglishman
was encountered. When asked, he
said he had been member of tue
Mormon church five months.

the reporter had fret spoken 10, and
in fact, all tho members of the band,
were stalwart fellows and they might
have been well-to-do farmers and me-

women were particularly neat, and
not few OF them were exceedingly

FRUIT HILL.

One day last week, while Mr.. Gus.
Robinson and several other men, were
at work constructing bridge across
Pond River about eight miles from
this place, they saw monster reptile
swimming down the river. Some Of
the workmen attackedit it with chunks
and rocks; but not at all daunted, it
| plunged forward evidently intending
to go between the abutmeats of the
bridge. 1t iaised itself nearly full
length above the water, striking at
the missiles that were thrown at it,,
but they fell so thick aad fast around
it, that it re.reated up stream into
deep water.
In about an hour it again made its
appearance, seeming determined to
run the gauntlet aud pass the abut-
ments. This time they allowed the
mopster to float down to shallow
water. About this time Mr.. Tom.
Mckinney came up ACCOMPANIED by a
small dog, which was regular
snake killer" lie allowed the dog to
attack the reptile in six inch water,
and battle that lasted two minutes
was fought. The dog supposing his
antagonist about "done ior," loosed
his hold; but not so, it was only a
little stunned. 1t struck blow on
the side of the dogs ueck, its poison
GUS fangs penetrating the neck vein.
The dog Immediately retreated to the
bank and vormitetl. His hair turned
the wrong way and his eyes turning
green, he expired in five minutes.
The monster was then surrounded and
killed, it proved to be Mud Mocki-
son, rusty, rough fellow, about three
feet long and very thick; its tail being
as blunt at the end as a mans little
finger. This is no "gotten up snake
story" but it is from reliable sources,
men who were eye witnesses Of the
scene say that it beat any thing they
ever saw before.

sion in North Christian, and are toler.

the old brayer TO be sound IN wind
