1t is said that there is a general cir
~culation OF Conferate money in vogue
In the west end of this county. Two
or three parties have recently been
arrested for passing Confederate bills
and there are many other complaints.
1t is said that there are quite a num-
Der OF parties out there who make a
practice of sending away for these
bills. They say they want them to
trade on"
There never was a newspaper pub
lished in any locality that gave all the
local news. 1t is often the case that
some people come and 60 that the re-
porters do not see or even hear of. 1t
may happen that the same family is
missed several times, and they get the
impression that the paper doesn't care
to mention them. 1t is a mistake.
the home paper has no ill feeling, en-
nifty, nor spite against any one. 80 do
not be afraid to tell the reporters when
you have any friends visiting you or
that you have returned from a trip or
are contemplating a visit. If you
think the paper shows p%artiaIity, try
to see if it does not treat you as we'll
if you give it a chance.-E1.
Sam Brown, who will Friday, June
9th, pay the death penalty on the
scaffold, has given up all hope of free
dom and for a couple of weeks has
been striving for a reconciliation with
the great God who created him. Brown
is in very bad health and we yet have
doubts as to him living two more
weeks. He is unable to aver sit up on
his cot only for a few minutes at a
time. When he was informed by his
attorneys that the whole process Of
the law had been exhausted, and that
by the clemency Of Gov. Dockery he
could only get few more days life, he
began considering his condition. He
requested our church pastors and peo-
pie to visit him. They have done so
and several religious services have
been held in the Jail. Brown has pro-
fessed a hope in Christ as his Savoir
and says he is perfectly resigned to
his fate. Brown is indeed a very
pitiable looking man, and if he has
made his peace with his Creator it
seems that death would be Welcome

The Contracting Board and also the
Board of Managers for Insane Asylum
No. 4, met in this city last night. The
main purposes of the meeting were the
transferring of the power house from
the care of the contract Board to the
Board of Managers, and the adoption
of plans and specifications furnished
by the architect for the violent insane
building. The Contract Board will
have the five cottages furnished at
once. The Board Of Managers also
made arrangements for having the
grounds cleared around and near the
buildings. Both Boards will meet in
St. Louis on the 26th inst, when the
five cottages will be formally turned
over to the Managers of the institution,
and the contract let for erecting the
building for the violent insane. This
latter building will be located just
south of the cottages and a semi-circu-
lar driveway will extend from it
around by the power house to the cot
tages. The plans and specifications
for the building are very elaborate and
show that it will be by far the hand
soonest and best one of the entire num-
Der. Architect Hohenschild has la
bored faithfully to that end. The
Managers state that after their meet
ing on the Goth they will be able to
say when the institution will be opened.

1t takes a hundred men to make an
engagement, but q m car make
a home. | not only admire woman as
the most beautiful object ever created,
but | reverence her as the redeeming |
glory Of humanity, the sanctuary Of
all the virtues, the pledge Of all perfect
quantities of heart and head. 1t is
not just or right to lay the sins of men
at the feet of women. 1t is because
women are so much better than men
that their faults are considered greater.
A mans desire is the foundation of his
love, but a woman's desire is born of
her love. The one thing in this world
that is constant, the mi peak that
rises above all clouds, the one window
in which the light forever burns, the
one star that darkness cannot quench
is woman's love. 1t rises to the heights,
it sinks to the lowest depths, it for
gives the most cruel injuries. 1t is
perennial Of life and grows in any
climate. Neither GOODNESS nor neglect,
harshness nor cruelty can extinguish
it. A woman's love is the perfume of
the heart. This Is the real love that
has wrought all miracles OF art; that
gives us music all the way from the
cradle songs to the grand closing sym
phony that bears the soul away on
wings Of fire. a love that Is greater,
sweeter than life, and stronger than
death. Robert hqerSoM
