Columbia Tenn.
The Americans article of last
Saturday on the McLanahan case
makes a mtcrial oversight on the
matter of lawyers in the case for
the complainant. We know moth
ing of the Americans sources OF
information, but the record shows
and it is known of ali men here,
that Jno. B. Bond, of Columbia
bar, was the leading lawyer on
that side of the cause and to him
is mainly due the result. Mr..
Bond is too modest to thrust him
self or services to the front, but this
law suit wascertainly won on hisad-
vice andcounsel. We state this sim
ply because his name was entirely
omitted in the Americans list of
attorneys for the complainant.

we must prepare our garden,
is the suggestion that is made to
to the head of the family by their
better nine tenths, at almost every
meal.
Any person wanting to buy a
bran new, "Ncw Home Sewing
Machine" with all the attachments
wonld do well to call on the DEM
oCRAT office.
Farmers are moving things in
the right direction, such as sowing
oats, repairing fences and opening
bitches, and general improvements
on the farm.
The LAWRENCE DEMOCRAT, and
the Nashville American sent to
any addres one year for s1.50, take
advantage of this offer, and sub
scribe now.
To the ladies.-A we'll selected
stock of the latest styles in Milli-
merry Goods, will be kept at Simms
& Lumpkins's, in charge of ladies
who understand the business.
In Indiana there has been a re-
cent marriage in which the youth
full son was 81 years, and the pretty
fair MAIDEN was of 96 summers, they
never asked the consent of their
parents.
The fata moment has almost
arrived, but the aspirant S
can't just yettell how they stand in
Mr.. Clcvelands estimation, but we
predict that they will, ere many
months have passed.
Read the papers and keep posted
in regard to the coming Admins
tration. We will furnish the
Nashville American in connection
with the Lawrence DEMOCRAT for
81 so a year. Subscribe now.
Lawrence countv is fast bccom-
ing point of interest. Large num-
bers of cntcrprising Norwegians are
coming from the north and settling
under the sunny skies, and upon
the fertile soil of our county.
These people are both industrious
and energetic, and make good citi-
zens, to all such we say come on.
Why not go to work and have a
County Fair in Lawrenceburg the
coming fall? 1t would stimulat,
US all to produce the best spcci-
mems of different pursuits and at
the same time every thing would
be improved and our county would
be benefited to a great extent. Let's
90 to work and push this move to
the front, and we will no doubt
reap a rich reward.
Lawrence County ranks third in
timber of the 96 counties in the
State, therefore offering superior
advantages to those who wish to
engage in the lumber business.
Climate unexcelled, and the finest
water in the state, it is also the
highest point between Cincinnati
and New Orleans. Soil productive
and naturally adapted to clover
and grass, to all seeking home
come to Lawrence county.
