some mysterious scratching gong on as
the readers of the HERALD know from
what was said in former communica-
ton from this place. He said there

that band of our EjuniOrs" won't out

ment at that charming residence. Tho
girls of our village were out in their

ling tones of their delicious voices, and
the boys-well they thought up all the

soft speeches, that are ever predomi-
nant characteristics of this sex. They
thought it was only nine o'clock when
1t was announced that the wee small
hours had cOme-the hour for parting
land would have gone away entirely
iIsconsolate and committed suicide or
"gone to bed" if it were not for the con-
selling assurance that there will soon
be repetition of the pleasure.

4 Letter from Merteus, Texas,

EDITOR HERALD:-As quite a number
of my Maury County friends expressed
desire to hear from me occasionally, l
will write a latter from this place and
send it to the HERALD. This is Hill
County and perhaps one of the best
farming counties in the state. We
reached this place on Saturday Sth OF
August, after leaving Columbia We'd
nesday the 5th. We came ola New
Orleans and Houston, which is one of the
most pleasant routes to Texas. Ourlstop
at New Orleans was about six hours,
and our stay there quite refreshing.
We visited while there the French
Market, which was of much interest,
and saw many things that were pleas
ant to the eye and palatable to the tastes.
We we're travelling nearly all day the
7th of August, on the wide prairies OF
Texas. We saw many herds of cattle
grazing on the pastures as we passed
through.
Many people have begun picking their
cotton, and corn looks almost dry
enough to gather. Farmers, in this part
of the country, think they will make
about so bushels of corn per acre. 1t is
thought that cotton will turn out well
here. So the people seem to be very
| much elated over the present con-
dition of things. The weather is quite
pleasant; there is nice gentle breeze
every day. We are now in the midst
of a very enjoyable meeting. There
are large crowds every night and the
people seem to listen with great
interest. Truly, +. G. SowELL.
