1t Is a relief to us to get away from
the dull routine of every day life in
town and enjoy the werm hospitab.e
welcome of our country friends. 1t
is a saying of common report that man
made the town, and God made the
country. The country with its wav-
ing fields, splendid forests, running
brooks, lowering herds and tinkling
bells, places us always in the midst Of
natures most favored aspects, through
which the mind easily and revently
approaches natures God. But our
subject is u trip to Tstum.
Al we whirled along the muddy road
on last Friday evening, behind the
easy. going team Of our kind friend,
Mr.. William Holly, on wi way to the
little hamlet which has grown up
within a few years, we were surprised
to see 80 many white fields of cotton
which seemingly had never felt the
touch Of human fingers, AMI we nat
urally asked, why is this? Is it be-
cause 50 much has been made in this
favored region, Oh is it because lazi-
ness, with his dull digits has been
lounging away valuable time? Oar
friend occasionally would say, look
there is almost . BAH to the acre in
that long white stretch. Anyhsw the
conclusion reached is, that all along
the route good crops of both corn and
cotton had been made, whether gar
nered or not. About dark, we drew
up before Mr.. Holly's neat and rather
imposing cottage, where a bl izing fire
aud a warm supper awaited US. The
open road IS the street, and on each
side of it can be s.en the snow white
homes OF five families, and two stores.
We o found that this little COM
munity was knit together, not only
in the bonds Of peace, but in union by
blood and marriage, with that sterling
and intelligent man and merchant,
Esquire w. H. Powell, the patrioch in
age and dignity if not in power.
Powell 4 Son, Statham & Holly do a
business amounting to about
$25 600 per annum. The social
life of this little community is based
upon the expansive basis of whatever
is good for one, is good for the other
and thus in their daily social inter-
course, there is an unbroken round Of
living fAvors. Their dwellings are
strongly and neatly built, with am
pie space. with every room, a center
Of comfort and taste, and every wall
bearing some evidence Of an educated
mind in the love Of picture and flow
ers.
