On Wednesday, the Bth, the voters of Jack

bonds, to build anew Court House. There
was but a slim turnout of people at Jefferson,

The voting was very quietly done here, re

for no bonds.
Public Speaking.
Col. Emory Speer came to Jefferson to fill
an appointment on last Wednesday which
we bad not heard of, and spoke to a number of
attentive listeners in the Court. House, in advo

his work, on exhibition last Wednesday, and
must confess that it is very fine work for the
prices offered. Wc heard several of our
citizens speaking of purchasing soon, and
would advise all interested in carriages or
buggies, to look at his large stock in Gaines

Measles.
There arc from fifty to sixty cases of measles
in and about town. Tlic school exercises
have been quite materially interferred with
for the time being, but as the material for
measles will soon be exhausted, we hope to
sec, in a few days, our school resume its
wonted activity. So far, we have heard of
no fatal or very dangerous case of measles in
this community. We learn that the disease
is spreading in several communities in the
count}' —Harmony Grove, Maysville and oth
er localities have caught the infection. From
exchanges, we learn that measles prevail
in many sections of the State. So that our
people are not enjoying this luxurious misery
single handed and alone.

being now about three feet eight inches high,

garden, which, he claiirvs, cannot be excelled
in Georgia.

That Opossum Dinner.
Mr. Editor: —Report hath it that last
year, during the syrup-making season, one
of our citizens, who yearly runs a syrup mill,
and who does not live a thousand miles from
Thompson’s Mill, invested, with three others,
in the purchase of an opossum, for which
they paid one gallon of syrup. Our hero,
being the senior member of this joint part
nership, was entrusted with the business of
having the said opossum served up for eat
ing, it being understood that the four parties
were to meet at a certain time ami place to
partake of the dainty meal. Our friend had
it prepared in excellent style, and, becoming
exceedingly impatient, and his curiosity ex
cited to the highest pitch, concluded to cat
his quarter in advance. This being finished,
his appetite craved for more, and in no time
he threw himself outside of another quarter.
Then he thus said to himself: “I have heard
that a whole opossum is good for dyspepsia,
and, by jingo, just to experiment, I’ll finish
the balance.” A few more moments, and
all that of the varmint was his
bones. Assuredly, opossum is a boon to the
human race.
Now, Mr. Editor, speaking of dusters, eels
and lizzards, do you not agree with me that
as an opossum-eater, our friend is a success ?

Letter from Mulberry.
Spring—the Weather—the Farm—the Fruit
Crop —Our Schools—the New Court House.
Editor Forest News :—There is no sea
son of the year more charming and delightful
than Spring. It is characterized by extra
ordinary beauty, and brings with it much
happiness. This beauty not only consists in
its green fields and forests, its delightful
weather, its birds, with their magnificent
plumage, caroling from morning until night
their sweet anthems, but in its beautiful flow
ers, exhaling their delectable odors. To all
lovers of nature, these beauties excite very
pleasurable emotions, and, to many of us,
recall happy reminiscences of onr childhood,
and makes us wish sometimes, Mj;. Editor,
that Spring would last always.
The weather is exceedingly warm and
rather dry, but at this writing there is a prob
ability of rain.
Farms in this section arc in a fine state of
preparation and cultivation. Many of our
farmers are far advanced with their work,
and are cheerful and hopeful in anticipation
of a good crop year. There is, however,
one exception to this remark ; and that is.
j the wheat crop, it is thought, will prove a
failure. Rust has made its appearance, and
will, doubtless, cut off the crop considerably.
Nevertheless, if we have a dry May, we
think there will be a pretty fair crop made.
Corn, cotton, oats and other crops look ex
ceeding]}- well. The fruit erop is remarkably
fine, and, what is still more gratifying, there
is every variety indigenous to our clime. It
was predicted by many that frost would come
and kill the fruit, but happily we think the
time has now past for frost.
Both our literary and Sunday schools are
in a flourishing condition. We have, Mr.
Editor, a splendid Sunday School at Bethle
hem church. It has a membership of sixty,
and is under the superintendency of Prof.
R. H. DeLane and Mr. G. W. Mahaffey—
brother to your esteemed townsman. Col. J.
A. B. Mahaffey. We also have a Lodge of
Good Templars here—" Star of Bethlehem.”
Bethlehem is a right new church, and deci
dedly the best one on the circuit.
The new Court House is the all absorbing
topic of conversation with the people of
Mulberry. Some dre in favor of bonds and
some are opposed to them. For our part, we
are in favor of them, and think the good
people of Jackson ought to turn but on the
Bth, en masse, and vote for them. .facfcSdn
county is as good, if not the best county in
the State. It has a salubrious climate, good
society, excellent educational facilities, fertile
lands, and its people, for the most part,
refined, intelligent, educated, energetic, en
terprising and religious. Consequently, we
do notjthinkour people ought to object to a
new Court House, but should be willing to
contribute their pro rata share of the expense
in the erection of anew one. The one we
have is in a dilapidated condition—nay,
unsafe, and a disgrace to Jackson county.
A Subscriber.
P. S. —Since the above was written wc
have had a splendid rain.
Pond Fork Notes.
Mr. Editor :—lt seems that no one else
will write up notes from this point, so I think
of trying to keep the readers of the Forest
News posted in regard to transpiring events
from time to time, though at present I have
nothing of an interesting nature to write.
Since the rain, everybody looks pleasing.
Crops are looking very well in this section,
except the wheat crop, which is very sorry.
The prospects are fair for ail abundant fruit
crop.
The fruit man, representing the Nashville
Commercial Nurseries, sailed into this vicin
ity last week, and took a number of orders
from our farmers for a variety of the choicest
trees. Wo think this a step in the right di
rection.
Good Templarisin seems to be at a stand
still in this section.
Pond Fork Grange, No. 654, re-organized
a short time since. This Lodge is located at
Griffeth's Mills, the time of meeting is Sat
urday evening before the 2d and 4lh Sunday
in each month.
Our fat friend, Judge 11. I). Human, arrived
home from Texas a few days ago. He stood
the trip all O. K., and is very well pleased
with that country.
Judge Who. Griffeth is repairing his mills,
and will soon have them in good running
order.
Quarterly Meeting will be held with the
Pond Fork church, Saturday and Sunday.
This vicinity has escaped the measles thus
far.
Wc have two flourishing Sabbath Schools
in this section, one is carried on at Pond Fork
church, the other at Whitehall school-house.
They are both largely attended.
Mr. Charles 11. Campbell is teaching a
flourishing school at White Plain school
house. Mr. C. is giving entire satisfaction
as an instructor.
Our friend, Dr. B. F. Braselton, associated
with the distinguished Dr. W. P. DcLnper
riere, pays this community a flying visit some
times, when the demands of their wide-spread
practice will admit of it, to see the folks at
home. N. G.
Notes from Marcus.
M heat looks fine. J. 11. Reynolds has the
brag field of wheat in this section. Mr. Rey
nolds is a good farmer. The most of corn is
worked the first time. And what a chopping
will take place in the cotton next week. All
seem to be in high spirits. Fruit is promis
ing. That never-failing blackberry crop is a
sight in some of the old fields.
Some improvements are going on. Dr.
James DeLaperriere is erecting an elegant
house on the road above his father’s; and his
son is also building on the Jefferson road.
Others are adding to their homes and farms.
A.T. Yearwood is still adding to his well im
proved place. lie knows just howto manage
such business. Ilis iiew garden excells all
for substantialness. He set out 2000 cab
bage plants in it last season.
That eminent young physician. Dr. W. 1\
DeLaperriere, is riding almost every day and
night, and has great success in relieving the
sick.
W. 11. Bridges has a flourishing school at
the Academy, near A. T. Ycarwood’s. And
the neighborhood has an cxcllent Sabbath
School, with 80 scholars ; also, a good debat
ing society, all going on at the same Acad
emy.
That high-minded, honorable gentleman,
J. G. Justice, is stocking this section with
fruit trees. Lenox.
IdF'Last week, at Pickens Superior court,
Mrs. Kate Sothern, after a four days’ trial,
was convicted and sentenced by Judge G.
N. Lester to be hung for the murder of Miss
Narcissa Cowart, about a year ago. She
will be the second woman in Georgia hung,
if the sentence is carried out, but it is said
the case will go to the Supreme Court, and
doubtless every possible effort will be made
to save her from the ignominious death of the
gallows. Congressman Bell was among the
splendid array of counsel who plead in her
behalf.

Among the antecedents of disease are inertness
in the circulation of the blood, an unnaturally at
