From all appearances spring has at
last visited us again, to the joy of the
farmers who are busy sowing oats,
burning and sowing tobacco beds.
From the number OF tobacco beds thai,
are being sown We presume that there
will he large crop OF tobacco planted
this year. The prospects for ~ crop OF
wheat in this section are not very dat
tering, but on the contrary are very
duII.
Mr.. &. N. Barnett who has been at :
tending the Greencastle, Ind. school
came home on account of illness, hut
we are glad to know he is improving.
Mr.. Alex. Barnett, of Texas formerly
& native of this county, has been visit
ing his brother J. c. Barnett.
Miss Maggie Mccormick, who is
teaching school at Pleasant Ridge,
visited her home Saturday, the 9Th ult.
Louis, little son of Obed Chapman, was
riding on log>sled, the other day, on
which his father was hauling a pole;
the sled turned over, and if it had not
been that the ground was soft it is
thought that his life would not have
been spared, as he went under the sled;
fortunately he escaped with "a severe
wound ON the leg, made by the log
chain, about two inches deep. He said
he would have had nice time if the
sled had not upset.
The people of No Creek are sincerely
glad that local option has at last pre-
vailed. Now they want thorough
tempe rance man, one that will put his
whole soul into the work, for their next
representative. Who shall! it be

Editor Herald:
Allow me in the columns of your
paper To voice the sentiment of Mineral
Wells upon the very pleasant sojourn
in our midst of DIR. j. S. Coleman and
Rev. J. 5. Taylor, who took their leave
on the 9th inst, from many endeared
friends here, for their Kentucky home.
Truly, never before did strangers, of
only three weeks acquaintance, 80
completely rivet themselves to the
hearts of a people as did these two
noble Kentuckians and safe return
to their loved ones at home was the
sincere wish of sorrOwing friends left
behind. Should they ever return to
these healing waters, they will find
the hospitality of this people taxed to
its utmost for their comfort and pleasure
while stopping here. DIR. Coleman,
while here, delivered four of his char
acteristic sermons which had the effect
Of pouring oil upon troubled waters. -
Though his sermons were of doctrinal
character, yet 80 plainly and forcibly
did he present the truth that people of
all classes and denominations were
heard upon the streets to congratulate
themselves upon having the oppOr-
tunity OF enjoying such a gospel feast.
His last sermon upon Regeneration, if
you will permit the expression, posi-
lively "caved them in" and | truly
believe if he were to conduct series of
meetings at this place he would nearly,
if not quite, mould the many diversi-
fled opinions into one, and establish
triumphantly the Baptist cause. The
impression he has made on the minds
of this people is one of lasting good,
and in their affections he has perma.
nent abode. A l.. II.

JEFFERsON's HORSES Jefferson, like
most of his class in Virginia i'm those
days, was Gland poor" and the prac>
tees of buying and selling on indefi-
nitely long credits, of never paying or
receiving cash for ANYTHING, of pur-
chasing extensions of Indebtedness at
ninOus rates, were enough of them
selves TO have ruined a man of larger
means and of more frugal habits than
Mr.. jefferson, and he, unfortunately,
was never man either of large means
or of frugal habits. His accounts show
that he was continually buying things
he could not afford, and INDUCING
himself when he should have denied
himself.-J0iR BigeiOW.

a Boston correspondent Of the Salem
Gazette writes: al will tell you a story,
which l solemnly assure you is true.
At a Christmas dinner given by a we'll
known charity organization. a young
lady who was on reception committee
had among her duties 10 attend the re.
moval and care of the outside clothing
OF the children. La the hustle of several
arrivals she hastily welcomed one small
boy, and told him to take off his things.
In few minutes, hearing a shout of
laughter, she turned round and found
he had completely undressed, and
stood in the same costume in which he
was born ! Her friends considerably
refrain from asking her if that small
boy obeyed orders"
