EVANSVILLE, Feb. 27, 'S2.
ED. FREEMAN Last week Circuit
Court was in session at Grantsville,
Judge R. Fleming presiding.
The good people of Calhoun are
waking up to their interests. For
the past two years J. Y. Burwell
was the only man in the county
who could be had to lecture in ia
vor of temperance and prohibition.
He has stood alone. But now a
number have arisen as it were from
the dead, and have entered into the
work. We had temperance meet
ing in the Court House last
Wednesday evening. Prof Hall
was called to preside. The meeting
was addressed by Hon. r. H. Freer
and J. Y. Burwell, and was we'll at

On Saturday evening we had a
temperance meeting at No. 7

The Temperance people of this
City are by no means discouraged
on account of the recent action of
the Legislature, but are more deter

ject to the utmost extent, and elect,
next fall, a Legislature that will
listen to the petitions of the peo-
pie.
Last Sabbath, a large and enthu-
siastic Gospel Temperance meeting
was held at Parker's Hall. Mr.
George J. Thompson, of Anderson,

ing, and for thirty minutes he kept
his auditors in rapt attention.

great promise, and we hope great
things from him for our cause

Fact and Fun.

The Americans are not the only
smart people who understand how
to advertise with effect. A man
in Germany has invented a hair
dye called "Hamburg Goldwater."
The travelling agent of the firm, in
order to present the magical effect
of the dye, goes about with his
hair parted in the middle, and on
one side of the parting it is jet
black, while the other is fiery red
He creates a great deal of sensation
from his resemblance to a wood
pecker, and sells lots of hair dye,
thanks to his go-aheadativeness.
A story is told of Gen. Buffers
sarcastic retort upon Massachu-
setts judge, whom he was teasing
for ruling favorable to the cause
he was defending in court. The
judge got out of patience at last,
and somewhat testify exclaimed
"Mr. Butler, what do you think I
sit here for?" The General quietly
shrugged his shoulders and re-
piled: "The court has got me

JACKSON c. H., March Is, 'S2.
ED. FREEMAN: During the war
with Great Britain, the British
ship "Sarepta" became engaged
with the American vessel, "Bon-
homie"
The "Sarepta's" first attack was
SO furious that it seemed utterly to
demolish the "Bonhomie." The
English Captain being sure he had
the victory, sent a flag of truce,
over, demanding surrender without
further loss of life. "Sir," said the
Yankee Captain, Paul Jones ego
back and tell the Captain haven't
begun to fight yet"
So you may tell "Messrs. Hall &
Co." and all those that voted ono"
that we haven't begun to fight yet,
and are in for it in earnest. We
mean to destroy the destroyer; and
we mean, too, to dispense forever
with such Legislators as can say,
''as you mean to coerce me into
voting, | shall vote nay although
| was pledged, and intended to vote
yea"
A man so destitute of principle,
so full of treachery, 50 void of hon
esty, is a disgrace to the Legislature
and his constituents. The ballot
must be cast for men that can be
trusted.

C. r. r. We believe Mr.. O'Connell
understands his business of locating
railroads, and he und erstands hui
man nature pretty we'll, too. He
seems to learn the dispositions of
farmers as he goes along, and pre-
pares the way for the right-of- way
man to follow after him, so when
the energetic and enterprising man
of our county, Mr.. R. H. Browse,
comes along he has no trouble in
showing the people the private and
public advantages Of the road as To-
Gated by Mr.. OConnell. Mr..
Browse is having excellent success
in getting the right through our
county.
The E. C. & C. R. R., from this
point to CORVALLIS, is taking steps
to have it's line completed as soon as
practicable. This will open up large
tracts of timber and minerals.
Cochran Bros. are now erecting a
large Store House at Eureka, which
they will occupy with an extensive
stock of goods early in April, and
the people are counting on having
freight and passenger depot here,
when the w. c. & P. is completed,
and are working to that end.
We have an abundance of timber
and rich country back of us, whose
products will come to this point by
our narrow-guage, over which we
expect to see regular trains running
between Eureka, on the river, and
CORVALLIS, on the B. & O., a dis
lance of only Is miles, and a grade
not exceeding two degrees at any
point.
This we conceive to be an excel
lent point for a mill, keg, barrel or
stave factory, &c. Lots can be leas-
ed on easy terms, and parties
about to go into such enterprises
would do we'll to come and see.

Once upon time, and not very long ago
at that young man of Atlanta fell in love
with an Atlanta girl. This happens every
day, and, as also happens the girl fell in
love with the young man. Somehow or 9TH
er the parents of the girl frowned upon the
union of these two hearts that beat as one,
and they continued TO frown until the young
people, thrown upon their own resources,
eloped, as young people will do, and the pa
rental frown alluded to- instead of becoming
a smile and "a benediction in the presence of
the inevitable, widened and deepened into
bitter disapprobation. Tho father and Inoth-

She seized the baby and bore il of in triumph

and unoonoerned as a cucumber. Perhaps
