the committee to secure homes in this vicinity
for Fresh-Air children and she wishes to get
accommodations, for two weeks, for large
number of them. Those who wish to enjoy
doing great deal of good and receive bless
ing should take one or more of these waits"
and give them taste of country life. Many
of them never saw green field. Thesurprises
| to the children who never saw farm life causes
those who take them to rejoice in having sac
rifced a little for the Masters service. The
people of this beautiful section of the county
have never taken any of these children, but
! have let the committee send them by train
loads down through the valleys of the Virginias
| This is near the city, with small expense for
car fare so let all families send word at once
to Mrs. Halle how many they can take. r.

Hyde's 18th District. = Sweltering hui
mainly, with the temperature at $50 in the
shade, has braved the intense heat of the past
feature coincident with this hot wave is the
fact of the pressure coming directly and con-
tinuously from the north. In the history of
the Oldest resident of this vicinity the present
dry season has been of the longest duration
and most destructive to vegetation. Every
| plant appears parched, shriveled and dried.
The canning industry presents a busy scene.
Everything is being put in readiness for the
beginning of the season, which will open on
Tuesday next. The unparalleled drought will
cause the yield to be greatly reduced, and Col.
| HYDE estimates his loss on this account at
fully $4,000.

Fullerton, 18th DisJrict.-In the issue of
THE UNION of August 4th it is stated that the
Rossville rural free delivery extends west to
Fullerton, on the Beair road, which is true,
and that it is likely that Fullerton postoffice
the simple reason tfatt isse &c Now the people
ment we get two mails day, ONE On lrr.rofs safs
rives at 730 A. NJ, and one at $3.50 p NJ, while
by the Rossville route, or free delivery sys-
tenn, we get but one mail, which arrives about
$50 A. NJ.
We do not understand why we should take
a backward step and surely there are no ad-
vantages to be gained by the new arrangement.
We do not wish to stand in the way of pro-
gress ofthe right kind. Why the mail-carrier,
J.J. Gross, comes around here we cannot COM
prehend, except as an experiment, for am
informed upon good authority that he has not
collected from the boxes more than one mans
mail since he started and that man don't see a
good thing when he looks at it. Weare under
the impression that the route as at present
mapped out, and not Fullerton postoffice, will
be abandoned.
