Despite complaints of those who
always look on the dark side of
things, our country is progressing
even in the matter of getting out of
debt. In the twenty years since
1S7Othe Federal debt has been reduc-
ed from $2,3S6,OoO,OOO to $9sS,OOO,OOO.
The State debts have been reduc-
ed from $685., 100000 to $4,000 900.
County debts have been reduced
from $ls7,OOO,OOO to $ll5OOO,OOO. In
the meantime our population has
increased from 3S,OOO,OOO to 62,OOO-
600, so that the per capita indebted.
ness, including that of inunicipali-
ties, is only $2S, against nearly S76
twenty years ago. During this
time 100000 homes have been sc.
cured by the economical and indus
trious, and hundreds of millions Of
dollars have accumulated in saw.
ings banks. How much of this eco
nomic progress is shared by each
one is a serious question which
every man and woman should ask
themselves.

A Rec0ptjon.

A number of friends were gather
ed in the parlors Of Rev. DIR. Bart
lett on Saturday evening last. to
welcome again in our midst the
eloquent DR.. Uams and his gentle
wife after several years absence.
For days nature evidently had been
in a fit of sulks-it had rained,
sleeted and tried to snow. But
certain brave spirits braved the
weather and filled hearts full of
sunshine and joy.
First came DR.. Ijams and wife
with her short brown curls like
swallows nest under the caves.
This lovely lady is like moonlight
to her delicate husband and they
together do good to all with whom
they come in contact.
Then talented, John Ceilings,
"the old man eloquent" frightened
all by his funny Rotations. Piety
and peace make old age lovely
and his presence filled the room
with reposeful charm. Much of
the pleasure of the evening was
contributed by Mrs. Col. Haynes
and her beautiful daughter Mrs
Clark. We truly congratulate our
selves in having won such fair
citizens. Mrs. G. was persuaded to
recite and she drought down the
house," in stage parlance. Had she
chosen the lyric stage for pro.
fessicn she would have won the
highest honors.
Two young welded couples
graced the occasion: Mr.. Webb and
his Kentucky bride-to see him
look at her one could tell her sweet
ness and beauty had won all his
heart. Mr. Robert Tedford and his
noble wife will make life success
for they are energetic practical ano
good. Misses Jessie and Johnnie
Gates were bright and in fine must
cal mood. Their performance bril-
liant, singing sweet. The hostess
with her cultivated taste WAS eve
a charming entertainer; she wa
also musical and under her match
less touch the "Storm" was vigor
Gus as whirlwind, grand be
witching melody above tempes
of harmony. 1t was restless, tn
multuous, barbara! Mrs. II. re
marked: ~ looked for the flash 0
lightning" ~
Turn we from music, poetry ant
wit, to the charms of the dining
room. The dinners of Mr.. and Mrs
Bartlett are ever the pink of culin
airy art and crystilization of refined
gastronolnic intelligence. Notwith
standing it is midwinter, flower
and japonica's from Florida tn
land of flowers, made the table ga.
with their beauty. Everything wa
nice and tempting. There is moth
ing more captivating than goot
eating beautifully set out.
At last the hour came to say "al
revoir," and it was with regret
, good nights were repeated.

An exchange says: "The cotton
crop Of the South, worth at least
$5OO,OOO,OOO, was grown on 100000
acres of land. The crop equals in
value the total corn crop of the
United States, which requires 10
100000 acres, and is more than 800
100000 greater than the value of the
entire wheat crop of the country,
which was grown on 30,OO0,OUO
1res."

The idea is just suggested that an or
uameutal stove be put in the market,
not merely an ornamental article, but
one that is artistic-one that will adorn
as well as comfort the home circle
1t is good idea, and has our
hearty support In fact, we are aux-
ious about it, The stove has no
nobler friend than the editor Of this
paper-no one who has given it such
careful intelligent study; no one who
has so faithfully tried to understand it,.
So we feel a peculiar right to speak out
The article from which we gather the
suggestion says that there is no reason
why there should not be a costly stove.
We don't exactly understand what is
me0-l by this. Every stove we have had
anything to do with was costly enough

Mrs. Cobisigh Calls Esr Dog.

A COW got into Cobleigh's yard Friday
morning and stepped around among q
dozen heads of choice late cabbages
which that gentleman had cultivated
with considerable care and pride. Mr.,
Cobleigh was not at home, but Mrs.
Cobleigh saw the animal and became
very much excited over it's presence. Il
was desirable to get it off the premises
as speedily as possible, but Mrs. Cob.
leigh WAS painfully limited as to facili.
ties. She was afraid Of a COW, aud did
not dare venture close enough to it to
make % clOthespole serviceable. She
had heard that a dog was an efficient
agent in the dispersion Of COW, but
there was not a dog about. But bright
thought struck the lady. She would
pretend there was a dog just back Of the
house, waiting to rush with terrific
ferocity upon the maraudius beast, Sc
Mrs. Cobleigh set to work, leading OF
with an earnest whistle, with the fol
lowing fattering result:

over Pierce and then hurried back for
more. But all efforts were of no avail
The fire fend marched on without inter
ruption, and in an hour the mill was de-
stroyed Sorrowfully the party turned
and limped home, Mr. Watts went foI
his coat and was somewhat startled tc
find that the fire had even attacked the
pile of slabs, and in its insatiate fury had
completely deyoured one tail Of the coat

was a peculiar green, and the nearest
approach to it was a peculiar blue, and
so Watts had to get it. because he

He had barely got out Of the kitchen
when the men came tearing in, crazsd
by excitement and looking for their
boots
"Smitten Washington where is my
boots?' shrieked Watts And then fol-
lowing the example of the others he
dropped down on the floor and began to
feel around for them Then ensued a
scene that beggars all description. Ten
men in a dark room, spasmodically and
insanely endeavoring to get into pair
of boots belonging to other parties, and
each one carefully fiinging the wrong
boot straight ahead and snatching for
another, and swearing and screaming all
the time, and hopping around on one
foot and humping one another over like
so many unhappy and incurable mani
acs Some two or three secured a boot
apiece and started for the mill; others
went unprotected, while old Watts,
with a presence of mind that was truly
remarkable, gathered up an armful OF
them and went bounding across that
corn lot with the speed of an alligator.
