1t is with sorrow that we report
the death of Mrs. Weaks, who pas
sed from this eaIthlyto her heaven
ly home, Oh April 3. In her death
a gloom has been cast over the
entire family, many relatives and
friends. 1t is hard TO realize, but
true, that we shall not see her
here below any more. Only dust
to dust in accordance with the
word of God. Her spirit has
flown to the one who gave it. To
the heart-broken ones we would
say, weep not for she is at rest.
1t has become our painful duty
to write the obituary of Mrs. Las.
setter, wife of Jim Lasseter, who
died on April 3. She had been a
sufferer of consumption for a mum
Der of years, though bore her suf-
fering with a christian faith. She
leaves a husband, -four children and
a host of relatives and friends to
mourn her loss. To them we
would say, weep not, but prepare
to meet her in that bright beyond
where parting and sorrow is not
known; where sublime peace for
ever reigns. BLUE BELL.

The annexation of the Philippines
is being thoroughly discussed by
some of our leading Journals, and
in case of annexation, what will it
necessitate! There is no telling.
These islands are more than 5000
miles from our nearest coast line
and nearly 10000 miles from the
seat of our national government.
The Philippines can never be set,
tied by our people; the climate
there is death to our race. The
Philippines can never be made into
a state and become integral parts
of the Union. The Filipinos re.
gard our flag az an emblem of Op.
preston, and many of them have
already laid down their lives
rather than acknowledge our right
to govern them, because Spain
sold them to us. They are engag-
ed against us in war for indepen.
dence, just as they were against
Spain, and the prospect is that it
is war that will continue for a
long time. We have lost almost
1000 men there in less than three
months, and now the worst season
of the year and the fiercest fight
ing we have yet confronted there
are both upon us. This war ex'
perience will be very dear to us
as well as costly.

There will be no marrying in
haste and repenting at leisure in
Wisconsin hence!orth, according
to the dispatches. The new mar.
riage law, as passed by the Assem-.
bly,, provides that five days must
elapse between the taking out of
the license and the marriage cere-
mony, and that during the time the
license must be kept on file and
recorded by the register of the
deeds of the county where the
parties or the bride reside, or, in
case the parties are not residents
of the State, in the county where
the ceremony is to take place.
The Tennessee Legislature has
enacted law prohibiting the mar
riage of children under 1Gyears of
age, without consent from their
parents on both sides. The county
court clerk is required to keep
the marriage Record open for
inspection to the public, so
that secret marriages in the future
will be few in number. While this
works a hardship to young lovers
seeking "connubial bliss" yet it
is q good law, and will lessen
divorce proceedings in our courts
to some extent--at least, it is
hoped.

that will be out of a job are
