Survivors of the days that tried mems pluck
and stomachs will not recognize the fields OF
carnage and confusion in which they were actors
% years ago, around Richmond. White winged
peace now broods over the scene. Landscapes
that then trembled under the tread Of marching
legions, the roar of artillery the rattle of mus
kerry, and the "noise of the captains and the
shouting" are now clothed in grain and grass and
orchards yielding their abundance in due sea-
son." From the burned and blackened home
steads, with their lone chimneys standing as sad
and silent reminders of the desolation and cru
elites of war; have sprung up the stately edifice,
the attractive cottage and comfortable farm
house. AS Longman Il Martinez s Pure Prepar-
ed Paints have large sale in Richmond, we
have no doubt that all these houses have been
made beautiful and durable by their use. Every
gallon sold covered with guarantee.

Knoxville, Tenn, stating that her husband
had been drowned in the Catawba river on

it, arriving in Hickory on last Monday
night. She brought with her photograph
of her husband, by which Mr.. George Fur
