know that n farmer whose corn is in the
weeds, wheat rpenlng in the rain, &c,

quit raining.

has been very fortunate. There has
been but one candidate here this year,

for Congress, spent n short time Saiur-

reasons to be hopeful. We kuorr that
if the 18th district could convert itself
into Il "ring," "clquc," or "bosS," 50

To the Home Journal:
Wheat harvesting began in earnest
early last week, and the farmers made
good use of their time. All the early
crops are now in the shock. The har'
vest binders are taking the day, and
soon the scythc and cradle will be laid
by as relics of the past.
J. X. Bennett has sold about fifty
Deering Binders this season.
1t wa, very warm last week, and we
hear of quite II number of harvest hands
who succumbed to the heat. Even
some Of our "dusky" hands, who were
thought to he sun-hcat proof, had TO
give in" and crawl to the shade.
\ very serious and fatal accident
happened several daysago in The family
of Mr.. Tom Byrd, who lives near Simp.
Vests in the 10th district, \ son Of
his was in the house cleaning and oiling
his gun. In pulling the hammer back
his finger slipped, the hammer fell, the
gun going off, lodging the contents into
the back and near the spine Of his little
sister, aged about three years Her
father, who was away from home, and
a physician were Immediately sent for
The father got home just in time to see
his child breathe her last.
Two weddings have occurred in our
town recently. On the 4th instant Mr..
Walter b. Stratt0n and Miss Maud Bal,
ard. both of Thu place, were united in
wedlock. On the Sth instant Mr.. Jnc.
Mahaiiey, of this place, and Miss Helen
IIcbden, of Nashville, were united in
the bonds of matrimony. Esq. Martin
performed the ceremony.
Quite little scene occurred among
some of our colorcd citizens Of this
place last Saturday. Carol Nevills,
COL, who is an exhorter, or preacher,
and is member of the Methodist
Church here, got his blood up to the
boiling point Saturday, caused by the
conduct of Rev. brother by the name
of Meredith, Il travelling preacher,
while at the house of Nevills some time
in April, in the absence of Nevills. The
Rev. brother visited Dccherd again last
Saturday, and upon Ncvills hearing OF
his whereabouts he proceeded at once to
where he was. They met, and after Il
few words Nevills drew an Ak upon
Meredith, who retroated and kept II
treating until he landed in the office o.
the Justice of the Peace here, Nevill'
following. Meredith sworc out State
warrant for Nevils, went to Winchcs
ter and placed it IN the hands of office
Henderson, who promptly came out ant
arrested Nevills and brought him be
fore the j. p. here, who held him TO
trial Saturday evening The result wa
that Nevills was fined 50 and the cos
and bound in sum Of $3.50 to keep tn
peace for six months. He secured tn
fine and cost, made his bond all right
and now Meredith can roam around a
ease for the next six months.
Mr.. VIM. Blair, who has been quit
low for some time past, is improving
it is hoped he will soon be up agar
! Mr.. G. T. Blair has been deprived
!. the privilege of meeting his appoln
# ments, but now can leave him 50 as
meet them. Mr.. Blair now has chare
It of three congregations, and we lear
that on next Sunday Presbyterla
- Church will be organized at Tullahom
which will also be under the care of NJ

WRITTEN FOB THE Posr-NTKLIIGEScEH.
We know not all this world contains:
Its realms are many, broad and deep;
Beyond our ken there yet remain
Things mortal vision cannot sweep.
We know not all the treasures great
Misfortunes gale has swept away;
The glories won In gorgeous state
Like meteers biazed and died away.
We know not, mid this worldly jar.
The voice that bids ambition rise.
Each fellow views his Turing star
And fights UNDECIDED for the prize.
We cannot turn the hidden page
And read the fate to each assigned;
We cannot count the coming age
With all its triumphs of she mind.
We know not all the bitter grief
That GENES from ruined hope anc
trust;
We know not when life's pulse, so brief
May leave this frame TO moiderinR

what did the corporation care for the
