Editor Ripley Ad, cruiser:
Ii you will allow me the space, I
would like to make few remarks
through your valuable paper in re-
gard to having a choir in Our,town.
Since the proLracted meeting has
been in progress it has been very
noticeable that the singing was not
such as we have been accustomed
10 hearing. 1t is worse than folly
10 say that Ripley does not afford
material. While We may not have =
sufficient number to furnish parts
for a separate choir for each Sdhdsy
School, we have the greatest sudi.

We presume our readers are
fully advised by this time OF the
particulars Of the recent attempt
bv a.crazy wretch, Chas, Guiteau,
to aSsassinate President Garfield,
who fired two shots at him, one Of
which took effect, woundlng him
dangerously. This attempt upon
the lite Of the President has
fully demonstrated one thing--"it
has shown that tho southern peo-
pie, as a mass, are just as devoted
to the integrity Of the country, just
as loyal to the constituted authori.
.ty of the government, just as much
concerned for the welfare Of the
whole people, regardless of geo.
graphical lines, and Just as deeply
stricken with sorrow because of the
blow aimed at the chief executive
of the nation, as are the citizens Of
any section Of the republic.n AL
though the President is Fegardedto
be still in a very critical condition,
at last accounts he was improving
that every day WAS carrying hlm
past the critical points one after
another, and strong hopes were
entertained by his attending physi.
clan that he would recover.
