Of surprise that not only is our navigation in

The Oldest Man.

There is a man living III. the
mountains of North Carolina, says
the Courier-J Journal, no more than
forty miles from Greenville, s. c.,
who has reached the extraordinary
age of 143 years. At the time OF
Braddock's defeat he was 20 years
old, and had wife and three child
ren. A gentleman at Greenville
states that this man, who comes
down to us from a former genera
ton, has always been in moderate
circumstances, lived upon coarse
vegetable diet, that he has not drank
any water but spring water, and
bids fair 10 live many years longer.
He enjoys perfect health, posses all
of manhood's attributes, and wish
es to marry. lie has survived sew
en- wives, and, having lost his last
one about sixty years ago, he now
begins to feel lonely.

From the best information we
have been able to collect regarding
the crops in West Tennessee, the
yield of cotton will not average
much, if any more than half the
usual yield. The corn crop in some
localities will be very short, and in
others there will be surplus-but
taking it altogether the deficiency
in corn will not be very large il
there is any deficiency at all.
There will be large crops of wheat
and rye sown this fall for winter
pasturage, and the seed must come
from abroad. Farmers generally
will take hold of the situation de
termined to make the best of their
disappointment.-II-i6 Tribune and ,SVn

KentucIsyLo,.er,es.

Kentucky, in some respects one
of the best states in the Union,
must Of necessity wear a blanched
cheek for very shame. She legal
izes the most illegal of all so-called
business; makes lawful the most
unlawful, by her lottery statutes.
Some played out politician has
worn out a farm, or an elephant on
his hands; not being able To sell,
he goes before the legislature and
that body grants him a lottery priv
ilege, in order that he may swindle
the ignorant and unsuspecting, thus
enriching himself. We blush for
our proud Commonwealth when
her lotteries are mentioned. Our
people are too fOrgiving, politically.
If "a member of the legislature se-
cures the passage of one local act In
which they are interested, they
forget or forgive the crime Of voting
for IA lottery scheme. This ought
not to be so. Let the people hold
their servants to a strict account
for their public conduct.-Er.

The CInrksville Female Acaaemy
Nashville Advocate.

This institution of learning,
whose history is familiar to the
minds of the people of the South
west, opened the fall term of its reg
ular annual session under a new
regime.
The Rev. J. r.. Plummer has re-
tired from teaching, and, with his
cultured family, is now domicil-
lated in Wesley Hall of the Van
derbuilt University, the Pdtriqus
of the theologues of that magniti-
cent monument to the philanthropy
of a New York millionaire and the
genius and broad executive ability
of Bishop McTyreI e. The Rev.
John S. Collins succeeds to the
presidency to the Clarksville Fe-
male Academy, and it is only nee
essary to state that he is the son of
the Rev. DIR. Chas. Collins, in order
to suggest his competency for the
position. Few men have been
more distinguished for executive
ability and successful teaching than
was DIR. Collins, in proof of which
let the histories of Dickinson Col
Iege, at Carlisle, Pa; Emory and
Henry College, Emory, Va; and
State Female College, at Memphis,
Tenn, testify.
Prof. John S. Collins is worthy
of his noble sire, and of the superior
advantages which he has enjoyed.
He is an allt11171lts of the University
of Mississippi, and has had large
experience as a practical teacher,
therefore comes to his new position
with the prestige Of established
competency for the place. He pos
sesses, in high degree, the great
element of success-enthusiasm.
Hence he is consecrated to his
work, and with self-forgetful devo-
ton to his enterprise he spares no
pains, no labor, and no money nee
essary to realize his ideal-a school
which shall turn out the highest
type of a true WomanhoOd. He
has overhauled the Academy, and
refitted and furnished it from the
cellar upward, and in this rejuven-
alton he has studiously observed
the health and comfort, and the
principles of esthetics. There is
also a wonderful combination of
the quiet, subdued aspect of domes-
tic life with the classic suggestive
ness of the appointments and fur
niture uf a place of intellectual la
Dor and mental development. And
Mrs. Collins, an educated and cult
ured Iady-a fine exemplitication
of the work which the school propos-
es to do-presides gracefully as the
matron of the scholastic household.
The curriculum of the school is
broad and thorough, and any young
lady who succeeds in mastering it
will be prepared to pass at once
from the position of pupil to that
of teacher, capable of giving salts
faction to the most eXacting board
of trust.
The Faculty has been wisely cho-
sen, and Prof. Collins is prepared
with teachers, apparatus, and ap-
pointments, to do full and complete
work as an educator. He will
teach himself and give his whole
time to his legitimate work, and /
bespeak for him liberal patronage,
giving it as my candid judgement
that all young ladies committed to
his care will be educated and have
the impress of an elevated social
life upon them in their daily expe-
rience.

There IN Plenty.
Pulaski Citizen.

It can now be safely estimated
what damage has been done TO crops
by the drouth. Last years crop
was enormous and the estimates this
year have been compared with that
crop, which makes the present ap.
pear smaller than it really is. The
truth of the whole matter is that
there is enough corn made in GILES
county to bread her people, feed her
stock, and sell small surplus. You
don't believe this do you? We do
not expect you to. Men love to
brood over and tell of their misfor-
tunes, and they are ready to resent
the insinuation that their ills are
mostly imaginary. We did not
start this article to convince our
readers that they will not starve,
but to impress another idea. There
is little danger Of men starving who
are willing to work, but this danger
can be materialized into a terrible
reality If croakers persist i'm crying
starvation" and famine" What
good does it do to depress men by
forcing them to think Of their ills?
What infinite harm il does to thus
discourage them aud throw them In
to gloom We have men in mind
now who are rich and who thought
lessly bewailing the condition Of the
country on every street corner and
predicting all kinds of misfortunes.
The effect OF such lugubrious talk
will he to tighten the grasp of those
who have anything upon their pos
sessions and thus create the very
famine they bewail. And it will
force men to leave the country, de-
prive them of energy and throw
communities and people into a
gloom that will make men misera-
BILE, stagnate business, encourage
stinginess, and result in wholesale
depression everywhere. Even
granting the crops to be az short as
some predict, is il not unwise to
continually brood over it? But is
not so bad. There is plenty and to
tpare in Giles county and the men
who would make you believe other
wise are erring greatly and are do
ing the country an irreparable dam
age. Don't close your con-crib
down on your neighbor and crawl
in your hole like a miser. Open
your heart, and keep yourself inhu-
NOR, and laugh down these long
jawed croakers, and go TO work as
usual, and let your neighbor alone,
and don't pour into his ear the tales
of starvation that will make him
sick at heart and make him quit
work. Men OF Giles county, the
times are perilous only in the effect
such talk may have. For the love
of your country, your neigh
bors and yourselves, forbearl We
have plenty but you can lock II up,
if you will In the cribs Of the peO-
pie, for fright will will make the
most charitable stingy.

sntr,Inr in the worId.

Many an unwise parent labors
hard and lives sparingly all his
life for the purpose to give his chill
dren start In the world, as IL IL
called. Setting Il young man ahoat
with money left by his reativss Is
like tieing bladders under the arms
of one who cannot swim ten
chances to one he will lose his blad-
ders and gQtO the bottom.
Teach him how TO swim and he
will never need bladders. Give
your child a sound education and
you have done enough for him.
See TO IL that his morals are pure,
his mind cultivated, and his whole
nature made subservient To laws
which govern man, and you have
given him what will be of far more

stay here at charming little hotel

some fine old castles. One, "The

decorations. His lordship has a
