McWhirter and Immiyration

Columbus Miss-) Index, Nov. 2.
Mr. McWhirter, commissioner of
agriculture and immigration of
Tennessee, is doing as much to adj
vance the industrial interests of the
south as any mn in office or
out, in this section. He has
adopted a system of advertising the
climate, soil, products, re-
sources and advantages OF Tennes-
see that is we'll nigh perfect, and as
he has been pursuing it in an intclli-
gent, practical and common sense
way for some time, the state is now
beginning to reap the benefits. At
tention is being directed TO Tennes-
see, and immigrants ale beginning
to seek homes there in large num-
bers. The latest step taken by Mr..
McWhirter is the organization OF
an excursion party from the north.
west. This party numbering seven
hundred, and composed OF the very
class of men the sou b is most in
need of, is nov in Tennessee, anC
are visiting different portions of the
state. An Appeal dispatch from
Nashville, mentioning their arrival
states thet 10000 the class o
people these excursionists represen
will settle in Tennessee within I
year.

The Lawrenceburg Tenn Press

The Lawrenceburg Tenn. Press
makes good application of an old
fable: Esop, in his fables, tells US
of wagner whose team stuck in
the mud. He prayed to Hercules
to lift his wagon out of the mire.
The answer to the prayer came, first
put thy own shoulders TO the wheel,
then others will help you Now,
if we wait and pray that capitalists
will come along with big trunks
filled with money and beg US to per-
nit them to erect industrial enter
prises in our country, we wait and
pray in vain. They won't come.
We must invite them. We must
tell our advantages and offer them
inducements to invest their money
in our town and help build it up.

Oh, the hog, the beautiful hog,
curving his back as he watches the

broken AMI ruined quite, by the low

A medical journal tells OF a young
man in Vermont whose brains have
dried up until they rattle like shot
in a gourd every time he shakes his
head. Since his case has been
made public he has received more
than fifty offers of a position as
clerk at a seaside hotel. But his
friends hardly think him suited to
the position as long as he has
enough brains to rattle. -Middle-

Great care should be taken in
seeding with clover to leave no gaps
for they will inevitably be covered
with weeds, worse than useless
waste of ground. 1t is good plan
to lap the seed trifie, and then
SOW cross-wise, to make sure that
all is evenly distributed. A peck
per acre, sown four quarts each
way, gives a good stand.

The quantity of evaporated fruits
coming to the various markets now
indicate step in the right direc-
ton by fruit growers. The evapo-
rator makes inferior fruit very pre-
sentable in another form, and the
introduction of evaporaters into ev.
cry fruit growing section mark an
era of reform too long deferred.
1t is the most profitable and sensi-
BILE wav to utilize the surplus-es-
pecially apples and peaches. At
home and abroad there is, and will

Women in the South.

History will never detail the self
sacrifice and heroic couraged OF
southern WON n. No matter as to
the right or wrong of the cause,
they believed it was right. The
blow fell upon the family
household early and with full force.
IL Virginia seven out of ten fami-
lies were without men folks at home
within three months from the first
battle. Father and sons went to-
gether. The wife and mother gave
all she had, and then turned to face
further anxieties. There were thou
sands of women in the Old Domin
ion who had never laced their
shoes or combed their hair. The
slaves were at hand at every nod.
These women sent their hus bands
and sons to the front, and then fac
ed the question of food supply.
When this occurred, the women
went into the fields and put in suck
crops as they could. Where the
slaves remained, the mistress was
forced to act as her own manager
and overseer, and assume all re-
sponsIblity. There are plenty OF
federal troopers still living who
found educated women welding
hoes and holding plows in the corn
field within six months of the open
ing of the war.
1t was the southern women more
than the provost marshals who
| checked desertion and made the of
tense odious. The confederate who
left the front without leave found
no welcome outside his own family.
He who came home by authority,
and with q wound to attest his
bravery in action, was a hero until
duty compelled his return.
No man ever saw a night so wild
that a southern woman would not
face it to carry news to confederate
soldiers. Every woman was a scout
and a spy. If the mother could
not go the daughter was sent. L
there was no daughter a dispatch
or message was hurried of by ne
gro or signal was made. They
came to accurately estimate the
strength of the marching columns
to identify one make of gun from
another in the batteries, and where
spies and scouts could not 60 the
noble women could. 1t was the
women who saved Mosby again and
again. 1t was a woman who tolc

man who told Early just how Sher
idan was distributed at Cedar
Creek, and there was scarcely {
battle on Virginia S soil with which
women had not something to &c
as the bearer of information. Once
enlisted in the cause, they did mo-
know what despair was. They
sent their beddlngs to the hospitals
and their provisions TO the army
and their jewelry to a buyer Of con
federate arms in Europe. Wher
the confederate government could
not furnish rations, the confederate
women did.-M. Quad.

An unfortunate fortune hunter
seeing a book advertised on "The

They call it "sbot gun policy in
Virginia and ascribe the defeat OF
Malone to intimidation. The ne
groes at Danville attempted the
shotgun role themselves and were
defeated at their own game, and
then they say they were prosecuted
and oyerawed. The event signifies
nothing except that the whites are
dominant and will not submit to
negro domination.

Take two ordinary steel pens of
the same pattern and insert them in
the common holder. The inner
pen will be the writing. Between
this and the outer pen will be held
a supply of ink, when they are once
dipped into the inkstand, that will
last to write several pages of man
uscript. 1t is not necessary that
the points of the two pens should
be very near together, but if the
flow of ink is not rapid enough the
points may be brought nearer by
bit of thread or a minute rubber.

The NOBILITY OF WOMAN
When you want to get the grandest
idea of a queen, you do not think
of Cathrine of Russia, or of Anne
Of England, or of Maria of Germa-
ay; but when you want to get your
grandest idea of queen you think
of the plain woman who sat soppo-
site your father at the table, or
walks with him arm in arm down
Iife's pathway; sometimes to the
thanksgiving banquet, sometimes
to the grave, but always together,
soothing your petty griefs, correct
ing your childish waywardness,
joining you in your evening prayers,
toilng for you with the spinning
wheel, and on cold nights wrapping
you up warm and snug. And then,
at last, on that day when she lay
in that back room dying, and you
saw her take those thin hands, with
which she had toiled for you so
long, and put them together in a dy-
ing prayer that commended you to
the God whom she had taught you to
Jrust-oh, she was the queen! The
chariot of God went down to fetch
her; and as she went in, all heaven
rose up. You cannot think of her
now without a rush of tenderness
that stirs the deep foundations of
your soul, and you feel as much
child again as when you cried on
her lap, and if you could bring her
back again to speak just once more
your name as tenderly as she used
to speak it. you would be willing to
throw yourself on the ground and
kiss the sod that covers her, crying
Mother, motherp All! she was
the queen

Oh,MyBack!.

On,MyBdCK!
That's a monexpres-
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will so quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Browns IRON BITTERs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM. P. Marshall, of Logans-
port, Indiana, writes: " My wife
has for many years been trou-
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one
bottle of Browns Iron Bitters,
and I can truthfully say that
she has been so much benefited
that she pronounces it the
only remedy of many medi-
cines she has tried"
Leading physicians and
clergymen use and recon-
mend Browns IRON BIT
TIERS. 1t has cured others
suffering as you are, and it
will cure you.
