A JERSEY CLUB.

1t has been very properly suggested
that the owners and breeders of Jer-
sey cattle Of this county meet and Or
ganize club for the purpose of regis
tering and taking such steps as are
necessary to keep the breed pure and
true to name. Jersey cattle, if well
bred and properly cared for, may be
made source of pleasure as we'll as
profit to their owners. They are IN
demand; all owners of such can we'll
afford to give them careful attention.
Warren county has some fine Jerseys,
and by the use of none but the very
best males, they can be still imprOv.
ed. Let steps be taken to organize
club at an early date.

OWN A HOME.

Every young man, no matter what
his occupation, should strive to own
home, especially if he is farmer, or
intends to engage in the farming busi>
ness. There are many reasons for this.
In the densely populated countries
where lands are extremely high and
difficult to obtain, it may not always
be within the reach of every young
man, but in country like this, where
lands are cheap, even as low as fifty
cents or one dollar per acre, there is
no reason why any industrious, enter
prising young man may not soon own
a few acres of land, which he could
soon heautify and make more valuable
by planting trees and otherwise inn
proving the grounds. 1t is astonishing
what young man may soon save,
even at a small salary or moderate
wages. We do not advise a young
man to 60 IN debt, even for land, an
less there is reasonable certainty of
his being able to meet his obligations.
He should never fail to comply with
his promises. There is nothing that
will prove more valuable to the bust
ness young man than the habit Of
promptly meeting his obligations. No
business man, young or old, can afford
to fail in this. He must be prompt
and to time, even though he has to
make sacrifice to meet his obliga-
tions. He cannot, he must not fail to
be on time. From experience, as well
as observation, we feel justified in
making the assertion, that any able
bodied young man, with reasonable
intelli sence and sober habits, can own
a home. He may have to deny him
self some of the foolish habits and So
called pleasures of the fashionable, fast
young man, but, if he will determine
to live trugally and save part of his
wages. even though they be small, he
can soon own a home. 1t is generally
safe to invest in realty if the title is
good, If judiciouslr invested it will
enhance in value. Such savings and
investments are not only valuable to
the young man thus making them, but
adds to the wealth and prosperity OF
the State. Parents should encourage
their sons to make such investments
rather than send them to the cities ia
seek employment where they are 50
liable to make failures and shipwreck
of their lives.

TANDARD- MEANWHILE TENNESSEE SATURDAY. JUNE a. 1854

or six months in the year, what must
it be in Tennessee where you haveshor
winters, and where they can Craze
during the greater part of the winter
if proper seeding has been attended to
with that end in view? Our law is as
follows:
The several assessors of townships
and precincts when they make their
annual assessments list all dogs and
bitches, and are transferred to the Au.
ditor's book and then transferred to the
tax duplicate and filed with the treas
urer. The owners are taxed one and
two dollars for each dog owned or hsr.
bored. The trustees of the several
townships and precincts draw that
money from the county treasurer and it
is held in reserve for any loss that may
be sustained by the farmers of their
respective townships, and if the money
is not called for after a certain lapse of
time it is used for school purposes.
Our wheat, oats, grass and clover
bid fair to be large crop. The snow
during the winter past, and not much
freezing and thawing in the spring, was
very beneficial to the wheat. The
above crops are about twelve days in
advance of last year. Corn is all
planted and some blowing the first
time, but there is trouble with seed
and cut worms. If we are blessed with
ninety days of favorable weather our
corn crop will be all right.
There will be no peaches in this Sec
ton this year. Many of the trees are
killed. The larger number of emf

some are seeking homes in the "Sunny

The Sioux Reservation.

Al agreement has been reached be-
tween Senator DAVIS, Mr.. Holman
and others interested in the opening
of the great Sioux reservation. The
proposition finally agreed upon is to
open the reservation strictly for
homestead settlement. 1t does not
permit settlers to commute their
claims, but obliges them to live the
full tlve years on TIER homestead.
The reservation will not, therefore,
be open to presumption, timber cul-
turc. private or script entry. The
portion of the reservation to be
opened will extend from the White
river on the south to the Big Chey-
enne on the north, embracing $4,000
square miles, or over 4,oo0,0 900 acres.
The treaty provides for $4,000 cattle
for the Indians, but che agreement
also requires each settler to pay 90
cents an acre in addition to his home
stead fee. This is to make up for
whatever amount the government
may see proper to advance to the
Indians. A quarter section Of land
will be allowed for town site pur-
poses under the town site law, and

Sad, If True.

A sad and touching story comes to
us from Grand Marais. A guilelcss
red son of the forest whose early edu-
cation i'll the intricate sciences seems
to have been somewhat neglected,
found a mtro-glycerlne cartridge, and
of ourse thought it was something
good to eat. One of the pe%cullarities
of the noble Indian is that when he
finds a thing and doesn't know what
it is he invariably Classics it with
his alphabetical list OF foods and en-
tombs it IN his always hungry midst.
This Indian made a fair average
lunch from the tenderest end of the
cartridge, smacked his lips with salts
faction and returned to his tepee.
After family prayers that evening his
squaw washed the children and put
them to bed, and soon the aged
couple also retired. During the
night his wife yelled to him to "lie
over" and al the same time dug her
elbow INTO lns abdomen with wifely
vigor. He did as she requested. He
laid over a considerable portion of
the adj accent real estate, while here
and there fragments Of his once
proud frame could be e dangling
from the llmbs of the trees in the soft
moonlight. His wife hasn't been
heard from since. The story is a sad
n and should teach the untutored
red children to always investigate
before they bite into a substance with
which they are not personally ac-
quainted.-I5ismarck Tribune.
