We have received this week Il
copy of the "American Newspaper
Annual" for 1885, published by n.
w. Aver & Sons, Newspaper Adver-
tising Agents, Philadelphia, Pa. 1t
gives list of all newspapers and pc
riodicals published in the United
States and Canada together with the
size, general characteristics, circula-
, ton, etc. In addition to this it gives
great deal of statistical information
in the way of population of States,
/ counties and county sites, political
| majOrities, and other matters of i'm
portance. 1t is very necessary vol
, ume in printing Office, and also a
very serviceable one to every general
advertiser.
Mr.. David G. Ray, representing
the Artisan, Of Nashville, was in Nc
Minnville several days of this week,
writing up our industrial enterprises
for that periodical. The Artisan is a
handsome monthly of twenty large
pages and cover and stands in the
front rank with the leading trade
publications of the the South. A
1 better medium for our manufacturers
i to make their wares known to the
= world cannot be found, and we hope
I they will give Mr.. Ray all the en-
cOuragement he asks.
There is no Disgusting the fact
;. that things are not altogether as en-
h cOuraging in this, and perhaps some
= of the adjoining counties, as could be
r wished. The corn crop has been ma
t terially injured by the drouth, pas
lures have been destroyed from the
+ same cause, many hogs are dying
e with cholera, and cattle and mules as
a general thing are not in good
D enough condition to be marketed to
1 the best advantage. Our people are
d in no danger of suffering for the com.
e forts of life, but from all reports and
indications, surplus money will be
Z conspicuous for its absence. Every
! article of farm produce that has 8
. money value, however small, should
q be zealously cared for, and put or
v the market in the very best shape
= Dimes make dollars, and few dol
lars judiciously expended bring botf
comforts and luXuries.
d Manchester Times: Col. LandN
r B. Waters, of McMinnville, called
e here few days ago on his return
n from Monteagle. He had along confer
n ence withaspecial friend ofhis. There
seemed to be cloud hanging owe
% him, which obscured his usual blanc
20 sOciablity. He doubtless has an en-
!, terpriSe on hand which he has greatly
% at heart, and which seems to Absorb
A his very existence. We would not b.
&c surprised if it is a female enterprise
% from the deep, penetrating thought
which seemed to be disturbing tht
= very bottom recesses of his heart
,o The wayward lass had better minC
how she trifles with the intellectual
and moral giant. Coquetting is ;
10 two-edged sword, and dangerous t.
y handle. Love is still a willy jade, an,
- barely bridlewise. X.
