Nicholson Springs.

The doors of this popular summer
resort formerly known as Crisp
Springs) were formally opened for
the reception of guests last Monday,
June 1st. In company with pleas
ant party of friends, we had the pleas
ure of dining with Mr.. Stevens and
Mrs. Nicholson on the opening day,
and the bountiful repast spread be-
fore us gave the fullest assurance that
the guests of Nicholson Springs this
summer will be feasted upon all the
good things an epicure could wish,
served in the most palatable and
wholesome manner.
The waters of these Springs are sur
passed by no others in the South in
medicinal qualities. In addition to
the sulphur and chalybeate waters,
there are number of springs of the
purest and coolest freestOne. In point
of location and natural attractions,
Nicholson Springs leads all the Ten
nessee watering places, while the
picturesque buildings, the home-like
comforts, the delightful climate, and
the pleasant attentions of the genial
host and hostess all combine to make
it the most desirable place in theState
to spend the summer.
We are told that the moonlight at.
fractions Of Nicholson Springs are be-

cially delights Mr. Stevens, and he

loves to watch the palegoddess of the
night serenely mount the ethereal
heights Of opaque density and shed
her soft, mellow rays in sublime ten
derness over the slumbering world
below, delicately tinting each vine-
clad cottage with tremulous lights
and shadows, hiding the ripping lit
tie river meath the elfn shades of the
moss-entangled bluff rising Sphinx
like from its eastern shore, and bath
ing all the fair landscape stretching
out to the western horizon in sill
very sheen of beauty-Selah.
But it takes the enchantment of
poetry to convey to the mind all that
nature and art have paid tribute to
this favored spot; dull prose in its
fairest flight is inadequate, and SO
Mrs. Nicholson courts the muse for
bountiful libations of the divine affla-
tus, and enshrines in lyric lore all
that is beautiful and charming about
Nicholson Springs.
There is no moonshine in our praise
of Nicholson Springs--we will leave
all that kind of truck to Mr.. Stevens
and advise all who seek health and
pleasure to go there and spend the
summer.

The G. F. College Commencement.

The principal event Of the present
week in McMinnville was the COM
mencement exercises of G. f. College,
which We're inaugurated last Monday
night by a very pleasant and inter-
esting entertainment by the Literary
Society, consisting of music, tableauX,
recitations, etc. On Tuesday morn
ing there was an exhibition by the
little folks. Tuesday nights enter
tainment was the most enjoyable of
the series, being made up of choice
vocal and instrumental music, reci-
tations, and a Shakspearian Bur
lesque, participated in by four young
ladies, who most admirably portrayed
the characters assigned them. We'd
nesday nights exercises were none
the less interesting, but were neces-
sarily rather long, there being twelve
essays and recitations by the gradu-
ating class, in addition to the musical
program, the comforting of diplomas,
and short address to the class by
the President. The graduates were
as follows:

Glover Seed.

Farmers should prepare to save as
much clover seed this season as posi-
BILE. They will want much of it next
spring for home use. A large surplus
should be made for market to make
up for the short wheat crop. Let the
second crop all be made ready for the
huller. Remember there is splen-
did Victor Huller in the county,
which will be ready to hull all the
clover it can get.

will give a performance in the new

that is necessary to secure him a full
