The friends of the Stove and Novelty
Works are still pushing the sale of lots,
and the big works will soon be built. AT
least, such is the earnest hope of the
friends of the enterprise of the enterprise.
By the expenditure of a little means in

can build up this branch of manufacture
ing interests rapidly. The great foundry
will make saleable line of goods, and
command good market. Build the

A Grand Idea.
The Proposed Normal School For
jackson.

Friends of education in this County are
seriously considering the erection of
College Building, with beautiful sur
roundings, at this place. The plan will
perhaps be that upon which the Nail Mill
aud similar enterprises are conducted.
There will be this advantage, however,
that there will be no risk in this venture.
The institution will do vastly more for
the prosperity of Jackson than half a
hundred Nail Mills.
Parties have been looking up grounds
for the location, and several sites have
been considered. We think that resi-
dence of thirty-two years in Jackson gives
us pretty fair idea of the respective
| value of grounds to be used for this pur-
pose. We know every foot of ground
surrounding the town. We have no hes
itation in saying that the most beautiful
| location about Jackson is on the David
farm, on the west side of town. Wehave
not consulted Mr.. David, but learn that
the lands can be secured. Jackson is
building steadily and rapidly westward.
Already Mr.. David has sold a number of
lots off his farm for homes. The site
spoken of for the College grounds is
large tract of beautiful meadow, having
a fine grove upon it, centrally located is
gently-sloaping knoll, splendid place for
the main building. The rest of the
grounds might be laid off in lots, and are
as well drained and prettily shaped as it
is possible to conceive. The grounds join
the neighborhood known as Posey Hill,
where the most beautiful residences in
town are located. 1t would be no trou-
BILE to sell good sized lots over there at
reasonable rate, as the town is going that
way without any special attraction or in
ducement. Any man would rather locate
his home near an Institution of learning
than near mill or factory. From the
location we speak of beautiful view is
had of the scenery surrounding Jackson.
But short distance across the valley is
the wild region of pretty scenery, includ-
ing the Buzzard Rocks. In fact, every
thing conspires to render the location
highly desirable one. It makes no diff
ference, so far as Mr.. David is concerned,
for he can sell his lots readily, should he
conclude to lay this beautiful ground off
into town lots. But the location of the
College there will soon build up all that
side of town. One of such lots would be
worth more than four of the nail mill
lots. We sincerely trust this plan will be
carried out, and those contemplating the
establishment of the new College build |
ing will fall in with the rapid westward |
growth of the town.

Some of the boys are joking Captain
Grassland about his public improvements.
The Captain built a neat, high fence Of
upright plank between his property and
that adjoining, used as tenement house.
The proprietor of the latter cut window
through the fence, and built room up
against it. Then he took the rest of the
fence for rear wall, and built against it
an addition to his house. So it seems
that what the Captain regarded as a shut
out, was really very great kindness
Now the boys declare that Grassland is
the only man in town having a window
in his fence.

KERPIYG STEP TOGETHER.

The band was playing martial airs,
Their melodies repeating
In rhythmic rhyme, and marking time,
The drums were loudly beatingj
And those in uniform so fine,
With soldier cap aud feather,
And others there along the square
We're keeping step together.
Beside me walked maiden fair
Whose heart had been seeking
For many day, but had not found
Theconrage yet for speaking,
And IS l watched her glowing face
really wondered whether,
As man and wife throughout our life
We could keep step together.
The tune was changed, but still the band
Kept up its martial measure
In unison the crowd moved on
To business or to pleasure;
And She emboldened by the scene,
Or by the bracing weather.
Exclaimed, "Just see how nicely we
Are keeping step together J"
All! quickly improved the time,
My heart quickstep beating,
Aud soon the old, old story |
Was tenderly repeating,
And when the ''WeddIng March" wa'
played,
Close bound by Hymen's tether,
Adown the aisle, with rapturOus smile,
We two kept step together.
The years have sped, and We are old,
Who once were young and sprightly,
But still within our hearts the flame
Of love is burning brightly;
And though we've met with cloudy days
And some tempestuous weather,
True comerades still-thro' good or ill
We're keeping step together.

NUMBER 40.
SHE COULDN'T PASS THE
SALT.

Perhaps you can imagine the
sensation created by the following
incident, which occurred at very
select and formal dinner party OH
Beacon street one day last week,
says the Albany Argus:
One of the guest of this festive
occasion was a young lady from
Baltimore, whose atiractiveness-
for the men at any raie-is not di-
minished by a tendency to be
mildly giddy. On either side of
her at the table were seated two
nice young men, who We'd with
one another in their efforts 10 en-
gage her attention. With both of
them she seemed equally pleased,
bestowing her smiles this way and
that with charming impartiaIity.
Having been introduced to the
pair but five minutes before sitting
down, she had cast a spell upon
them before the filth oyster on her
plate was swallowed when the
soup plates were removed they
had already abandoned themselves
to her destinations, and by the time
the roast was on the table each
was hopelessly enraptured. When
the fowl was brought it chanced
that, while the butler and assistant
were out of the room for moment.
the hostess, who sat close by at
the head Of the table, wanted some
salt.
"My DEAR" she said TO the Baltl.
more g,rl, "will you hand me that
little cellar by you ~
The young woman spoken to
looked up responsively, but made
no motion 10 comply With the re
quest. Surprising that she had not
understood Mrs. K SAID again
"Will you not give me the salt, il
you please =
By this time the attention oI
every one present had been called
in that direction. The young lady
, from The Monumental city. hOwev.
er. was not periurbed. Il am very
sorry, Mrs. -" she said, "but
how can do what you ask Y'
And with this she lifted her hands
suddenly from beneath the table,
holding in her lett The hand of the
young gentleman on that side and
in her right the hand of his rival.
Both had been holding hands with
her, unknown TO each other, under
the mahogany.
