M'Aol our Section in doing.
We take the liberty of oxtractiug tho
following from a business letter written
by Mr. G. II. Pruett, of Saletn, Alabama:
“Speaking of our county, climate, Ac.,
we lmvo an equal, if uot better, thau any
in tho world. I have a patch of greon
growing wheat in our garden two foot
high, and nice green growing Irish pota
toes and English pens, all growing out in
the open air and unprotected. Thou
away with the Florida and Texas fover.”
Contesting n Wilt.
Tho will of Mrs. Mary Shorter ITrqu-
liait, tho late wife of Dr. Urquhart, wan
presented by tho attorneys of the pro-
pounder, IVabody & Brannon, to bo pro
bated “in common form.” The coveator.
Dr. U., opposed objections presented by
LewiH Garrard, Esq., and tho probating
of tho will was postponed until tho first
Monday in February. The objections to
the probate woro not read, and will be
argued at the time stated. The will was
made in 18(»J1, when tho Shorter estate was
settled and tho Broad street property,
now owned by Mr. Hauserd, sold. It left
all of Mrs. IJrquhart’s property to her
husband, l)r. U., with tho exception of
$5,000 bequeathed to his niece, Miss
Oliver. The estate may not now bring
the valno of that bequest.

Whereas sinco opr last meeting our
Marnlml and chief of police, Matt. W.

THE SUNDAY ENQUIRER,
WUh the Kn Iw wa aaparat. tho 8UNDAY ENQUIBEB from th. DAILY.
Thla *»» a n.smaity, from tha f»ot that many hundrad* wara taking tha SUNDAY
that did not taka tha Dour, and it waa bnt right that thay ahould hava a journal that
visited them bat onoa a week, anpsrior to tha Daily. On thia paper vt
largely riak tha flnanoiel anooeaa of oar enterprfae, and thta being tha aaaa we pro.
pose to make it in ovary way worthy of popular aupport, and tha beat advertising me.
ditnn in the land.
Wa do not dream of rapid fortnna or nnaxpaoted racoon. Long yaars of hard,
determined work, with one groat objeat in view are absolutely essential to win. All
tha requisites of energy,however, would be unavailing aa ateam without praetioal aa
ehinery, if we did not make a paper that commended itself to tha pobllo audio whom
pages each subscriber felt li« wat more than compensated for hla trifling Investment.
Knowing this we propose to make tho SUNDAY ENQUIBEB the beat family paper
in the South.
ITS DEPARTMENTS.
One aerial STOBY of merit and thrilling intareat will be found in tha columns
of the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB. Three stories, at least, eaoh a volume in itself, ani
written txprculy for thit paper, will be published daring tbs year. Baeh story will
ba worth the subscription price of the paper.
General Literature,
Poetry, oirginal and eeleoted, will be found in tho appropriate oolomns. At
least two hundred poems, soflloient to make a large volume, will be published during
the year. In addition to thia there will be a great number of short and intereating
sketohea of travel, romance or general interest.
Ladies’ Department.
This will be a m.iked feature in the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB. While the editor
of .his Department will give a resume of the changes in the world of fashion, at ths
same time great ears will bs exeroised in ths preparation of all artiolaa, tha dasire
being to give the neoestary information without oreating any tendenoy to tha slavery
of dress. Articles on female education, records of noble women, and Undrad matters
will be made a specialty of tbil department.
Household Matters.
Cooking is as muoh of a science as domestic eoonomy; therefore thia dapart-
mnnt will ba found of nnusnil interest to every housekeeper in the land. All new
receipes that tend to make food more palitable or home more comfortable will be
published. Besides rsoeipes that are useful in ths preservation of furniture, doth-
ing, ornaments, ths decoration of home, and the taring of none,. Everybody will
appreciate folly the benefit of this department and it ia our desire that they con
tribute to it from their own experience end to do good to their house keeping siatera.
Medical Advice.
W bile every parson if dangerously or severely ill should at once call ia a physi
cian, yet there is much in minor esses that oould bs done wilh a knowledge of simple
and easily procured remedies. These will be tarnished in this department, ia addi
tion to articles on physiology and the laws of health.
Sunday Reading.
While it is proposed to make the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB snob e paper ai can be
read st ell times aud by.every person with advantage, yet it is bnt right that ws
should set aside a department especially uevotsd to religion without sectarianism.
Church news will be given under this bead, besides scored poetry and the best
thoughts of the greatest pulpit orators.
Scientific Notes.
The world owes its progoeae to the heart of pure religion end the oeeaelesa brain
of her daughter end band maiden, Seienoo. Every day new dieooveriea ere being
made, and these, where they are of general interest and practical ntility will bs rag.
ularly furnished to the enbecribers of the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB.
New Publications.
In thia age of many books it is impossible to keep up with the literature of the
day. This department by careful reviews will keep our snbseribsrs informed, and
where necessary the oream of all the books and periodicals will be earefully given.
Answers to Correspondents.
From this lime forward this will bs a regular and oarefully edited department of
the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB. All questions proposed will be answered oarefully and
promptly, to the best of the editor's knowledge and ability, and where an anawer
cannot bo givon the question will bo published and answers solicited. By thia
manna much information can ba conveyed aud amusement received.

SchbnckM Pulmonic syruf, Sna Weed
Tomic, and Mandraku Pills.—These de
servedly celebrated and popular medicines
have effected a revolution In the healing art.
and proved the fallacy ot sevoral maxims which
have for maoy years obstructed the progress of
medical solenco Ihe false supposition that
“Consumption is Incurable” deterred physi
cians from attempting to find remedies for that
disease, and putlents afflicted with It reconciled
themselves to death without making an effort
to esoape from a doom which they supposed to
bo unavoidable. It 1h now proved, however,
that Consumption can be cured, and that It has
been cured in a very great number of oases
(some of them apparently dnsperataonrs) by
Sehenck’s Pulmonic Syrup alone; and In other
rases by the same medloine In connection with
Sehenck’s Sea Weed Tonio and Mandrake
Pills, one or both, according to the require
ments of the ease.
Dr. Sclicnck himself, who enjoyed uninter
rupted good health for mere than forty year*,
was supposed at one time to be at the very
gates of death, his physloians having pronoun
ced his case hopeless, and abandoned him to his
fate. He was oured by the aforesaid modlelnes,
and slnoe his reoovery, many thousands simi
larly affected have used Dr. Sohesek's prepa
rations with the same remarkable sueeess.

not absolutely necessary to personally see Dr.
Sehenck unless patients wish their lungs ex
amined, and for this purpose he Is professionally
