Forepaugh's Great Egyptian
Observation-Disclosures Queen
of Egypt. ..

Thousands are everywhere floeking to
see Forepaugh's great street parade,
with its,two magnificent spectacles, Lab
la Rookh and Cleopatra. OF this latter,
which is presented for the first time this
season, we append the following histor-
zeal account thereof, adding, that our ex-
changes assert that the pageant, as pre-
sented by Forepaugh, fully equals the
historical description herewith APP
pended:
cleopatra was at this time twenty
five years old. She provided herself
with vast sums of money and the most
magnificent ornaments and habits, and
with still higher hopes in her attrac-
lions and the grsces of her person, more
powerful than dress or even gold, she
began her royal pilgrimage. Never
WAS equipage more splendid and mag
uilicent than hers; the whole upper
deck OF her barge famed with gold the
sails were purple and inlaid with silver !;
pavilion of cloth OF gold was raised
upon the deck, under which appeared
Cleopatra, robed like Venus, and sur
rounded With the most beautiful virgins
of her court, some of whom represented
the Nereids and others the Graces. In
stead of trumpeters were heard fluters,
hautbOys and harps, and other instrlI-
ments of music, breathing the softest
airs, to which the oars kept time, and
rendered the harmony more agreeable.
Perfumes burned on the deck, which
spread their odors to a great distance.
AS soon as her arrival became known,
the people Of Tarsus went out to meet
her. and rumor was spread that the
Goddess of Beauty and Love had come
to make Tarsus a visit" ra-I.. rf ID.
Such is the account by historians
of the time, of the, more than royal
splendors and magnifieence of Egypt's
famous and beautiful queen, on the oc-
casion of her visit to the great Roman
triumyir, Mark Antony, who, capable
by his prowess, OF subduing empires.
pyet was unable to escape the conquest
of his bead and heart by Egypt lovely
and luxurious queen. - 81 a.i 81
! All the regal splendors that NJ lrkcd
the ''star-eyed beauty's" royal journey
are faithfully and magnifcently illus
trated in the grand pageant which viii

Thor,eurhbred Corn.

If you desire to secure II pedi-
gree corn suited Co your own soil,
location and requirements pursue
DIR. Stmtevant's method, which has
proven SO successful on his Farm
ingham farm: Select the best corn
procurable, OF the type desired, and
plant only tie kernels from the
shapely ears Of high character-not
she ear far larger than the type, but
of large average size OF the type,
ana plant eY9ry kernel. on the cob,
the butts and tips as well as the
centralCkernels. Plant in hills, 80
that each plant can be readily &C
cessible. Have the land in a fertile
condition, neither poor nor over
rich. Then as soon as the tassels
appear, and before the pollen is
| formed, pass through the neld and
remove the top with the tassel on
from every stalk which does not
show a large appearances OF caring,
in order that each ear formed may
be sure TO receive pollen from a
plant equally as fecund as itself.
From these ears, the best and most
perfect in all respects-ears which
we know have come from prolific
fathers as we'll MS mothers-select
the ears for next years planting,
and thus continue. The good eff
fects will be very perceplible the
second year, will be very marked
the third year, and the fourth year
will become so firmly established
az TO be considered almost n race
character. DIR StuHteyant has prac-
ticed this for series Of years and
has fully established thorough
4 bred variety after his liking which
! is undoubtedly one Of the most
bea1tiful and productive in this
codntry,-- Rural World.

improvements.

A word to our honorable mayor,
board of alderman and citizens:
Those who live in our little town
can but view with intense satisfac-
ton the progressive spirit and see
gaining ground among our people.
The expression that Pulaski is
dead can no longer with business
be applied to us. Will not this
year be looked back to as the turn
ing point in our history?
OF most importance we have in
augurated q system of turnpikes
that if pushed successfully through
gives us at once a stand that in
sures future prosperity.
Next our streets and houses are
soon to be lighted with gas, our
streets have been greatly improved,
while other signs of improvement
are going on. One of the hand
soonest churches in the state out
side the cities is being built, with
several residences, dc. Being i'm
pressed with this progressive spirit,
we feel like >uEgcstin. in our hum
BILE way to our honorable mayor
and board one or two points that
we hope they will consider. The
question of side walks. What have
we? First street is tOlerable, sec
ond street is wretchcd and third
street has none, as is the case near
ly over the balance of the town.
There is a hole reaching across the
walk in front of n handsome resi-
dence on second street that for ten
wears or more is filled with water
at eachyrain, to the sorrow and dis
tress of many a PEDESTRIAN. An
hours time and half dollar would
remedy the defect What adds
more to the looks of n town than
beautiful walks? In the cities
authorities can compel parties to
improve their walks. Have we no
ordinance? Our honorable DO ri
can enforce thc repairing of pave
mauts when the, 90. : u or make
them for the puD.I~ gVOdr Again,
suppose on each side OF our streets
we're planted shade trees this fall all
over town, what would be the effect
few years hence? This would not
cost much. Let Us picture Pulaski
with her half dozen turnpikes, her
streets lighted with gas, beautiful
shaded walks, handsome square and
buildings and--yes we must have
water works. Let us begins to agi-
tate taat subject and do everything
to i'm rove our town

The nomination of Col. John q.
BalIentine for congress has ayerted
a danger that was imminent in
this democratic district, for it ap
peared at one time as, though the
contest between aspirants to this
high Office would have to be deter
mined at the polls, and that with
two democrats in the field the
chances would be in favor of the
election of republican. But the
nomination of Col. Ballentine has
settled all quarrels and discussions,
and we can see no reason to doubt
but that his election is assured. Col.
Ballentine, we are informed, is a
gentleman of middle age, with no
political record other than that of a
quiet, consistent democrat. Per
sonally very popular amongst his
neighbors. He has lived M arly ali
his life in Giles county, where he
was, born, and after serving with
distinction as cavalry officer IN
the confederate army, at the close Of
the war he returned to Pulaski and
has resided there ever since. He is
regarded as a man of the highest in
tegrfty, possessed Of a mind well
balanced and cultivated, and we
shall look forward to his trium
phaut election after which we be
lieve his course in congress viii
show him to be, what his friends
claim for him, safe, conservative
and thoroughly honest public ser
