Evergreen Lodge.

A few evenings ago in company
with a friend we paid visit to
Evergreen Lodge. We confess to
our readers, especially to those OF
our own city,, that we were aston
ished at the magnitude of this es-
tablishment and most agreeably
impressed with all that we saw.
At the entrance we were met by
Capt. Crusman who gave us cor
dial welcome and made us feel at
home. After some minutes OF
pleasant conversation with the Cap
tain we were showed around the
establishment, and introduced to
Mr.. Monroe, the gentlemanly man.
ager who seemed to take great de-
light in showing us all the rare and
beautiful plants and flowers. His
stock of roses, geraniums, and TO-
liage plants especially, is immense.
Many of these geranIums and
plants Mr.. Monroe propagated from
seed, and in richness of foliage and
bloom they are certainly far in
advance of anything we have ever
seen. To mention all the different
Towering and foliage plants raised
in this establishment would require
an article far too extensive for our
columns, and we can only at this
time mention what impressed us
most. The tidiness OF the estab-
lishment, together with its thous-
ands and tens of thousands OF plants OF
every description, made an impress
ion upon us that we Will not soon
forget. Among the roses we noticed
the new tea rose "iSt0aSet," a sport
from the best of all tea roses PerLe
deS JGrdipS) for either greenhouse
or out door culture. This rose pos
sesses the most exquisite shade ever
yet produced in roses of this fam
lily, and we thought when Mr..
Monroe gave us the price on "Sun-
SET" that he was offering it remar-
kably cheap, very much cheaper
indeed than any other establish
ment whose catalogue we have
seen. Altogether we were much
pleased with our visit, and we nOti-
fy Capt. Crusman now that we shall
call again.

ATTENTION DEMOCRATS.

All interested in political affairs
should give careful attention to the
notice of Judge Tyler, chairman OF
the Executive committee, in refer
ence to the proceedings preparatory
for the great contest of next No
vember. It will be seen that a
County Convention is to be assem-
bled in this city on Saturday the
8lst of this month, while district
meetings are called to take place on
the Saturday before, May Gath at
3 o'clock p. m.
It is becoming more urgently I'M
portant every year that the people
should take direct interest in their
political affairs and not leave them
to professional politicians who are
more interested in their own prefer
ment than in the public welfare.
Let every man then attend these
primary meetings in the same spirit
as he attends to his private business.
If this is not done, no man has a
right to complain that political af-
fairs are carried on in the interest
of politicians, rather than i'm that of
the people.

Audacious DEMONSTRATING.

Two men, giving the names OF
III. J. Hacket and J. F. Adams
presented themselves at the livery
stable of Caldwell & Shelton on
Thursday week last, and hired sad
die horses for the alleged purpose of
peddling pleaters. These were
duly brought back next day and
hire money paid. On Monday they
each hired a horse and buggy for
the same purpose and travelled
with them on the Hopkinsville
pike. On Tuesday Caldwell &
Shelton got a telegram from WE'LL &
Means of Hopkinsville, that a man
was trying to sell a bay horse under
suspicious circumstances. They
had in fact sold one to w. q M,
and the animal was recognized by
a negro as belonging to Caldwell &
Shelton. Rudolph Shelton tele-
graphed back describing the horses,
buggies and men, and w. & M.
then had Adams arrested Che had
gone to Pembroke.) In answer to
second telegram to this effect,
Rudolph Shelton went with Henry
Ring to Hopkinsville and identified
horses, buggies and men. Adams
had given the name of Thompson
at HOpkinsville but had ordered
the buggy to be forwarded to Bal
timore to the address of J. F. Adj
ans. He was tried before two
magistrates and bound over to
court for $500. He remains in Jail
In default of bail. Hacket was
arrested, but in defect of evidence
discharged. He accompanied
Shelton and Ring back to Clarks-
vile, and there being nothing here
to detain him left, but without
paying his board bill.

The Combination Stock Sale at the Cave.
One of the features of the grand
stock show and general reunion OF
the Montgomery County Farmers
Association, to be held at Dunbars
Cave, the latter part of August or
first of September, will be a general
sale of all kinds of stock. The
purpose Of the Association is to es-
tablish annual meetings of this char
acter, to attract the attention of
Southern farmers to GAINESVILLE as a
stock market, and interest North
ern and Western stock breeders in
the advantages offered by the sur
rounding country for raising stock,
and thereby bring into market the
fine grass lands that are going to
waste for want of capital, labor and
brains, to develop the riches of the
soil.
Already number of parties have
signitied their desire to offer some
fine stock for sale at the coming
meeting, and that it may be made
an occasion worthy of wide spread
attention, the stock for sale should
all be catalogued quite early and
properly advertised. Therefore it
is important that all persons wish
ing to sell stock at the coming
meeting of the Association, should
notify the secretary at once, by
letter or otherwise, the number of
head, and kind of stock TO sell.
When the list is made up a meeting
of the owners will be called and
the terms of sale agreed upon. 1t
is matter of importance to stock
raisers, ana it is for them to build
up the stock interest of our section.
Farmers in all of the surrounding
counties are invited TO take part in
the enterprise.

Family Reunion.

We have already announced the
purpose of some leading families in
this and adjoining counties of hold
ing general reunion of all existing
members of those families. Their
meeting is now appointed to take
place on Friday, May Esd, at Red
River bridge, on the L.. & N. r. R.,
in the grove of Col. E. A. Fort.
To this meeting we have received a
courteous invitation from the ac-
ceptance of which we expect to de-
rive much pleasure. The families
represented are those of Fort, Met
calfe, Killibrew, Johnson, Whit
field and Radford, and invitations
have been sent to all the numerous
branches of those families, or rather
that family, for all of them are, we
believe, branches of one stock.
The Hons. Jas. E. Bailey and John
F. House have been invited, and
will probably address the guests,
and Mr.. Joel B. Fort will speak a
welcome to his innumerable kins-
men and kinswomen who are ex-
pected to be present.
The meeting cannot fail to be an
interesting one; "reminiscences will
be looked, carrying US back to the
olden days when the families living
in Middle Tennessee could be count
ed on the fingers and each of the
branches now living among us was
represented by brave and sturdy
pioneer.

We quote the following from the
piroulor.

Our market during April, though some-
what irregular at times, more especially for
nondescript and bad conditioned tobaccos,
was generally remarkably strong, with
continuous stiffening in prices from week to
week until the end of the month shows an
advance over the beginning of one-fourth
to one-half cent on Tugs, and from three
fourths to two cents per pound on leaf, and
as present prices are quite satisfactory to
sellers, the Warehouses are now taxed to
to their utmost in trying to sell as fast as
they desire. So the rush of the season is
now upon us, and the bulk of the crop in
very short time will have been disposed of.
The weather for the most part has been wet
and quite cool, rendering spring very back
ward and causing farming operations to be
much behind for this season of the year,
but as it is now warm and all that could be
desired for the rapid growth of plants, of
which there is an abundant supply, we may
reasonably calculate upon a large crop If
planting seasons can be had at the proper
time.
