THE FIRST OF APRIL.-As soon as
we write March we are invOluntarily
reminded of the coming first of April.
There are thousands of people to whom
that day has no more meaning than
any other day in the year. And there
are just as many who dread the day on
account of debts, interests. rents, &c.
which must then be paid. The printer
most always belongs to the latter class.
We will have to pay considerable a.
mounts on the first and our bank &C
count is far from being up to the mark
of meeting our obligations. We there
fore request all those whoowe us on job
work, advertising or subscription to
help us over the dreadful First Of April
by prompt remittance of their respec-
tive bills.

Letter from J. Il. Reifsnyder.

Doyle, Tenn, March 7th, 1885.
MILLHEIM JOURNAL | have to
lay over about four hours here and con-
cluded to write a few lines for the
JOURNAL. I have been delayed at
least day on my trip so far. Arrived
at Washington on the morning of the
3rd, remained there until the morning
of the 5th. The inauguration was a
grand affair, the city was crowded with
people from all parts of the Union.
Saw President Arthur and President
Cleveland drive to the capitol together,
before Cleveland was sworn in. Saw
him taking the oath and heard part of
the inaugural address. President
Cleveland is fine looking and good
speaker. After the ceremonies at the
capitol the procession formed and
marched to the White House, which
lasted from o'clock till about 6 p. m
Gen. Slocum was the commander-in-
chief. | feel proud to say that Penn
sylvania had more soldiers in the pa
rade than any two states. 1t took the
N. G's. fully one hour to pass certain
point and was informed that there
were about 5000 men in line from
Pennsylvania. Vice President Hen
bricks, Gen. G. B. Mcclellan, Gov.
Pattison and a host of prominent men
were in line and everything passed off
orderly. The FIRE works in the evening
were the grandest display that could be
seen.
After leaving Washington I went to
Lynchburg and from there to Bristol,
which is on the east line of Tennessee.
The land on this route is very poor, be-
ing red clay-in fact everything looks
poor. No dwellings of any account, no
barns or fences. Did not see any hay
or straw. The land is all bare. The
farmers did not get their crops out last
fall on account of the drowth. Their
stock looks thin and there is not much
of it The ground is still covered with
snow. After crossing the Tennessee
line the land is about the same until at
Sweet Water, where the buildings and
fences are good aud where they have
barns. From this place to Chattanoo-
ga the valley is pleasant and it looks
as if the land was good. See plenty of
straw and hay stacks and some grass or
sod on the fields, but the winter grain
is nearly all killed by the cold In fact
only saw several fields that looked lit
tie green, and an old farmer told me
that they would not get any wheat.
From Chattanooga | left for This
place, which is the nearest r. II. point
to Spencer, Van Buren, Co.. Tenn,
where expect to spend week to look
after timberlands. To my surprise it
commenced to snow this morning and
the snow is now about fourinches deep.
The train just arrived and I must
close. Yours Respectfully,
j. Fl. REIFsNYDER.
