Mr.. S. A. Wakefield, of London,
assures MS that the reported fiHd of
meseoric stone near the town of Knox
vile is true, having seen and examined
the 'svisifor" to his own satisfaction.
He refuses TO tel where It came from,
for the reason, we suppose, that he
doesn't know. A description will be

LIN the proper column will be found
the announcements of Mr.. John A. Hick-
man as candidate for re- election to
the Office OF assessor, subject to the ac-
ton of the democracy OF Pope. For
two years as the servant of the people
and acting for them, he has required
that the law on the assessment Of prop
critics be strictly enforced, and If the
assessments made have seemed burden
some to any, it was the fault of the law
and not of the officer. We are sure no
one will deny that Mr.. Hickman has
tried to do his whole duty, and we
doubt not his claims will have due con-
sideration.

Mr.. James j. Falrbnrn, Of Morrill,
ton, patentee of the Fairburn-Hurl-
bert Fence Machine is in town this
week, Stopping at the Bergman House.
From the model exhibited to us and
the claims Of the patentee, we conclude
tina with this invention farmers can
make strong and durable combination
picket fence at small cost. Any kind,
size or number of strands Of wire can
be used, and sawed or split pickets of
any shape, length or thickness. Old
rails, poles, canes or cornstalks may be
used. MIR. Fairburn Is also agent for
Hurlbert's "Home made" Wire Netting
Fence, a cheap. durable, handsome, and
harmless enclosure for farm, garden or
yard. Models can be seen at the Ber-
ryman House until Saturday next, aud
descriptive circulars and price lists OBJ
tanned by addressing Fairburn & Hurl-
Last Saturday several Of our
merchants were very much surprised
at learning from people from the.
country that = report was IN circala
ton to the effect that an agree
ment had been entered into by the
business men OF Russellyille bind
ing themselves to take sides
with railroads in the present contro-
versy between the railroads and
strikers and form an association an
tagonistic to the strikers. etc. This
was construed to imply favoritisgn to
railroads and opposition to working
mems organizations, and considera
bic criticism was directed against our
mel chants in consequence. We run
the report down and found that it
originated from misconcep
tion of circular sent to our bust
ness men asking them to become
honor Try memusrs Of an association
having 'or its purpose the abatement
Of the growing evil of Discrimination
of the railroads in the matter of
freight rates. The success Of such q
movement would rebound to the in
terest of the farmers. This is all
there is in the "bug boo," and the
persons who have so Industriously
circulated the false report are asked
to be as diligeBt in giving promi
nencc to the facts as stated above.
AT the election last Tuesday,
our handsome young friends. Messrs.
Robt. Chasteen and Will G. Vein
err, were favored with the sui
RACES Of their fellow citizens for two
very important offices. The former
was elected Spring Poet and the lat
ter Chief OF Dudes. No better Sc
lections could have been made Con
gratulations, gentlemen!
