brethren, let me warn you to beware,
remember that music is woman's
strongest fort to persuade our sex to
run their head into matrimonial hal
ter of double wretchedness. Be wise,
cautious, discreet.
Our old citizen, Mr.. Johnston Will
Hanson, has just returned from visit
ing a place he has not seen for over 2
score years. He reports very pleas
ant visit. In fact Uncle John has q
very warm attachment for a sister liv-
ing near Oak Grove whom he visits
every fortnight.
The heart of Mr.. Abe Bledsoe was
made to leap with joy recently on find.
ing young Abe at his domicile.
By the way the K. Q. q. Kneb lodge
has had several meetings of late. Fears
are entertained as regards the safety o.
one of the lodge. an old soldier and
mudlark raiser. A heavy ransom has
already been offered by the enemy. W.

EDITOR lNTELLIGENCER: Through
the kindness of friend, ali old book has
fallen into my hands bearing the above
date 1892 } 1t is the Vulgate translation
Of the old and new testament made at
the vatican, by order of Pope Sixtus v.
Though nearly 800 years old it is well
preserved; the printing though antique
is we'll executed, and the gliding still
visible Ell the binding. Very naturally
it aroused some thoughts as to the
many changes and revolutions which
had taken place in the history and con-
dition of the world since it was print
ed.
1t was just one hundred years after
the discovery of America. COrtez and
Pizzaro had not many years before
completed the conquests of Mexico
and Peru, and Sir Humphrey Gilbert
and Sir Walter Ralei gh made unsuccess-
full attempts to plant English colonies
in Virginia.

AUTUMN.


The sharp air of the past few days
reminds US that summer is. over and
gone, though Jack Frost has not yet
bitten the flowers or shaken the leaves
from the trees. Yet we know it will
not be long ere the flowers droop and
die, the leaves fall slow y through the air
and the song of the katydid and cricket
are silenced. Nature has done her
work for this season and is now pre-
pairing for rest; yet, mortals as we are,
we sometimes grudge her this short re-
spite from labor; forgetting that when
the sharp air bites our ears, and snow
lies thick ON the ground, that she is pre-
pairing for next years health and next
years harvest. How like our life are
the four seasons of the year. Spring
is our birth and infancy; Summer our
youth and manhood; Autumn our ripper
years and old age, and Winter our
death. Then, too, the spring again is
like cur resurrection from death. May
we all live as pure and fruitful lives as
the things of Nature, and come forth
at the resurrection morn as pure as
they in the first days of spring.

A Woman's Smile,

There1s q legend, shrined mid years,
That soft o'erhan9s An ancen' Spanish town
OF how, whom Arragon was wrought with feHra
OF slavery beneath Moorish Crown.
There came . smiling woman to the square,
Where towards knelt before cathedral door,
Who, quick uplifting arm that Sas as fair
As fairest jewel from the Kh0lspore.
Thus to the kneeling crasens. smiling. said:
men of Arrayon, what fear ye, the while
The sun bears NO foul stain Of Moorish redP
No day is lost that sees our un-god smilei"
So when night. with. gentle step drew nigh.
To kiss the Guadalquivir's sapphire wave.
A legion did the Moorish host DEFY:
A bright-eyed womsn's smile had made men
brave.
Gone 10 that ancient town upon the Spanish
Main
And bright NO more may fash the Psynim
spear;
A womsn's smile wins all the world again,
And holds 1t all within . womsn's tear.

to crush out the reformation, begun
under. Luther during the reign of his
father Charles V. Philip was the most
potent monarch then living, or who
ever had lived. His dominions embra-
ced Spain, Portugal, Italy and the is-
lands of the Mediterranean, part of
Germany, the Netherlands, the entire
continents of North and South Ameri-
ca, and the West Indies, beside which
he had been king Of England in right
of his wife, Bloody Mary. The In
QUESTION was still lighting Spain with
the fires of the auto de. .te, and its gloomy
dungeons resounding with the cries of
its tortured victims. Elizabeth was on
the throne of England, and had
just won that great victory over the in-
vincible Armada, which placed her at
the zenith of her glory, and humbled
the pride of Spain. Cecil Walsinghaln
and Bacon were still living, as were
also the great admiral Sir Francis
Drake, and Sir Walter Raleigh, and
VIM. Shakespeare was a young man
whose name had never been heard be
yond the precincts of London theaters.
The generation had iusG passed away
which participated in the great civil
wars of York and Lancaster. The
massacre of st. Bartholomew had taken
place not many years before. Charles
TX of infamous memory, and Gregory
XIII, under whose reign and pontifi-
cate that great crime was committed
were not dead. The battle of Ivey had
been fought which placed protestant
monarch firmly on the throne of France
in the person of Henry of Navarro
The bloody wars against the Moriscay
the descendants of the Meors who con
quered Grenada, was still IN progress
and the great naval victory won b,
Don John, of Austria, had not long
been fought after the expulsion of tn
Moorish population. The downward

EDITOR INTELLIGENcER:-Ih have con-
cluded to become a newspaper scribbler
and in the future will endeavo- to for
ward you monthly report from south

report may chime with divine truth 1
have concluded to establish my head
quarters near Concord church. Should
you in your wisdom consider my COM
munications worthy you will confer a
favor by giving them space in your
columns, otherwise cast them in your
waste basket and the world will loose
nothing in the way Of lore, whilst
your devil will be greatly benefited in
the way of kindling material.
Religiously, cid Concord has come to
the front, having purchased magnifi-
cent organ, and the possession of this
instrument makes lawful excuse for
the young folks to meet, sing and court,
especially the latter. There is also a
flourishing Sabbath school with Mr..
John Bledsoe for superintendent. Di-

Shepherds are not 50 eloquent as Broth

sufficient light to show the sinner the
dangerous route he is pursuing, and
also to encourage the Christian in his
onward and upward march. May the
words of these old fathers be as bread
cast upon the waters, and may they see
all gather and eat. Amen.

Joseph Ham and his estimable lady

and in honor thereof they concluded
to celebrate this by having a glass

One needs but glance to notice
wings in millinery. Set about in all
sorts of ways and combinations which
stylish milliners have made the right
ways. They stand stiff and upright
like the palings Of fence, are placed
fatty and in succession like bands, or
peer. up singly. Others are grouped
from center with tie look of great
prickly pompon, and small birds with
widespread pinions do the same.
Single feathers too (sometimes gilded)
are set in punches, or even solitary

the goose quill of former days. The
mixture of wings, birds, etc, with
ostrich plumage is moreover u novel

shaped hat, which will lose something
of its mannishness' and become dis
tinguished when properly softened by
feminine adjuncts. The brim is medium
as to width and perfectly straight
around; the crown large and high, ris-
ing straight likewise. It is trimmed
with band or bands, and on one side
wing pompen or bunch Of tips. Worn
by lady of fine figure and regular
features, this will be very striking
sort of hat, but should the wrong we
man get hold of one, can imagine
nothing more disastrous. 1t is full Of
danger and beautiful possibilities a.
well, and while therefore I would en-
courage an attempt, would also say
"beware." Capote bonnets are in
great ascendency, and como provided
with strings about two inches and a
half wide. Many Of these are Of vel

bonnets are of the same material laid
plainly on the frame. Too much in
