In the early days of the settlement
some of the first corners lived III tents,
while others found shelter as best
they could in any mountalneer's cabin.
The above building the first log house
erected-was put up by a camping out
family, which, after living in it for a
short time, sold it to the Board of ALL.
Several officials of the Board lived in it
awhile until, crowded out by spades,
plows, agricultural Implements, and
sundry things demanding storage, they
vacated it in favor of turning the
place into a store for the supply OF
provisions and colonial requisites. This
was in May, 1880. Mr.. G. S. Herbert
was the manager, and a large amount
of business was done in his time, which
so increased during Mr.. fuckers reign
in the old log cabin, that a fine building
was erected on Central Avenue, and
moved into last September.
The above engraving is from draw
ing made by Mr.. Evan-Thomas, a gentle
man till lately residing in Rugby. We
hope to publish some ten or twelve
other of his Sketches, of which the new
Commissary building will be our next.

Rugbeians, we are sure, will be pleased to
know that our neighbor, Andy Young, Esq,
was again elected, on August Bird, to fill the
important position of one Of the justices of the
peace of this district. He has filled the
position for six years, with admirable impair
TALLY, ability and gentlemanly address. and is
deservedly esteemed. Mr.. Onderdonk, who
ran for School Commissioners place, made a
very good show, and it was entirely owing to
his starting very late in the race that he did
not head the poll. There was some little
technical management at fault. The voting
throughout the county, as far as we have
heard, passed off most orderly and quiet. Two
wagon loads of voters left Rugby, and after a
rough ride, were dumped at Sunbrght.

A PILGRIM SONG.

We tread in bold and firm array
The path by Saints and Martyrs trod
We march along the Kings highway
Home to the City of our God,
And count the long and weary hours
Till Thy sweet vision on us rise,
Thy radiant bowers, thy shining towers,
o lovely Paradise
What matter though the way be drear,
The Journey long, and dark the night
For He our Lord and Leader here
Is there the Everlasting Light
The radiance of His love divine
On every faithful warriors face
Shall brightly shine, the holy sign
... Of all his machless grace.
So with the cross upon our brow
And strong in His immortal strength,
We forward march to battle now
Secure of victory at length.
Not ours, as yet, the peaceful calm
Which dwells in thee, . land of life,
Yet soon the palm, the yictor's palm,
Shall crown the weary strife.
0 glorious land of all the free
0 refuge for the sore opprest
No tyrant e'er shall enter thee,
No war-cry break thy peaceful rest,
The warriors on the eternal shore
For ever lay their armour down,
The battle DER, they evermore
shall wear the fadeleSs crown.
As pants the hart for water springs,
Sore wounded by the hunters dart,
o city of the King of Kings!
0 country of the pure in heart
Our thirsty spirits long for thee,
Thy children's lonSedfor loved abode,
Fair city free. where we shall see
The vision of our God.

Dear Editor,-I thought would take my
pen in hand to ask few important questions;
this is FIRST When a man offers himself as
candidate for an Office of trust in the gift Of
the people and proposes to do services for the
people free of CHARGE in which the code of
Tennessee has specified said fee, and then
when he is indicted into office takes solemn
oath that he has neither given, nor offered to
give any gift, fee, gratuty, or reward in con-
sideration of his support" is it not closely
bordering upon perjury, and a man who should
take an oath of office under such circumstances
is he to be trusted in taking charge of county
funds, that come into his hands as financial
officer of the countyp Second, The code of
Tennessee sets forth in plain terms the lawful
fees for all state and county officers, and when
county is bid at as a pauper, by men who
propose doing her work for the least pay, what
kind of officers think you, will that county
soon be filled with? But now it is a lament
able fact that has been painfully realised, that
when man in office adheres strictly to the
rule of equity and honesty, he will not please
bad men, but he will please the Lord and all
good men. When if he would tamper to the
wishes of bad men, he would displease the
Lord and good men, and be drain on the
financial interest of his county.
Some wealthy men, who consider themselves
big bugs, will oppose an honest officer if he
does not show them extra favors above the
common poor man, and it is fact to be
lamented that county elections, in the majority
of cases are carried more by fraud and bribery
than by the free and honest ballot box. Per-
haps one in ten votes, as his convictions tell
him, would be right
Pray say what do franchise privileges in a
Democratic or Republican form of government
amount to under such state of thingsp Is
it not in direct contradiction to the letter of a
free Democratic or Republican form of Govern
ment for few designing men, through the
whiskey bottle and bribery. to carry whole
district, and countyp O! may the good
Lord pity and forgive people under such a
state of affairs as just represented, and may
the people appreciate their franchise privileges
as great and sacred privileges but more
anon.
Yours afectionately,

benefit, for so longa time, after working
hard Gu his farm all the week, is no
slight denial, and one calling for recog-
milton. But the getting up of testi-
monals is nice affair, requiring much
caution and discrimination In this
instance, however, there had been a
remarkable manmity of opinion, and
all have most cheerfully come forward
to show their approval. Mr.. Pardon
then asked Mr.. Blackjack to accept a
check of $3.50, the amount that had
been subscribed by his numerous friends
as n small testimonial of appreciation,
Mr.. Wilson, as treasurer, then handed
the check to Mr.. Blackjack, who, upon
rising to respond, received a most hearty
welcome. He said, don't know what
to say as | had no idea that this was to
be part of the programme the light
has for the first time broken in upon
me. What have | done to call forth so
remarkable testimony Of respectl |
cannot explain to you the thanks feel
in my heart for the services may have
rendered. The kindly welcome | have
ever and always received from you has
been my sufficient reward. You have
more than recompensed me for the
services | have enjoyed to share with
you. The speaker then referred to the
size of the church congregation, the
number Of attendcrs being above the
common percentage of this country and
England, whilst the Intelligence of the
congregation he felt also was far above
the average, but he assured the meeting
that he should be pleased to give way
to regular clergyman when the time
came. He closed with some apt remarks
on the position and prospects of Rugby,
finishing with a recitation Of Mackay's
"Clear the Way" with some local
adaptations.
Mr.. Tucker followed with speech
describing the hearty welcome and
cordially all had given to the further
ance of the little present made that
evening. MIR. Walton came next with
an amusing account of very recent
complaint he had received from an old
lady who had travelled a long way to
accuse the Board of stealing 10000
acres of land she said belonged to her,
and upon which land she maintained
Rugby was built. She would take
possession of an empty shanty till her
claim was settled. Complaints were
very few in Rugby compared with what
they had been, even The Rugbeian had
ceased to complain. Mr. Taylor was
next called upon, and he drew attention
to the agreeable nature of the evening,
and the spontaneity of our American
brethren's appreciation of an English
man. The last speaker was Mr.. Otis
Brown, who said he was heartily glad
his fellow-citizens had expressed some
idea of the conduct of the services at the
Church, as Mr.. Blackjack could not
render greater service to the colony
than that which he had done.
During the evening the speeches
were intersperscd with some songs Of
rather ancient date, and not often aired.
With "Auld Lang Syne" and Good
Save the Queen" and a vote of thanks
to the ladies, responded to by Mr.. W.
Robinson, who called for three cheers,
which were heartily given, the meeting
separated.

BANQUET AND TESTIMONIAL
TO MIR. JOSEPH II. Blackjack.

On Wednesday evening there was a
large gathering of ladies and gentlemen
in the Commissary Hall, Rugby, to
witness and take part in the presenta-
ton of testimonial to Mr.. Blackjack.
For very close upon two years Mr..
Blackjack has conducted the morning
service at Christ Church, and very
frequently that of the Union congre
CATION in the evening, showing in both
positions the most marked ability, and
sincere desire to assist the colonists in
the exercise of their religious duties,
and the maintenance of an excellent
place of worship. That he has deserved
some recognition, other than universal
appreciation, has for some time been
felt, and Il few weeks ago steps were
taken to raise a fund, to be presented
as a small taken of Rugbeian regard
The response to the call was heartily
given by the colony, from various parts
of the States, and from over the Allan
tic. 10 further celebrate the presenta-
ton it was decided to hold social
gathering and supper, and on Wednes-
day evening the two events came off,

what, and we could account for the
"feast of good things" The variety of
meats, pastry. fruits and entrees was
most extensive, while everything was
prepared with the minutest care of
domestic art, and placed upon the
tables with an elegant taste. Many
vases of flowers, ferns, and foliage were
interspersed among the dishes, and in
the centre of the cross table lowered
a tastefully and admirably arranged
stand.
Shortly after eight o'clock the guests
sat down, Mr. Pardon presiding. Ninety
persons were in the hall, eighty-three
sitting down to the tables. 1t is I'M
necessary, and it would occupy too much
space, to name all present, as with very
few exceptions the adult colony turned
out en- masse. There was also present
