The ques tion for debate is; “Resolved, That the Education of Females should be equal to that ot Males" Col. W. K. Fielder, leading the affirmative, Rev. B. F. Payne the negative. All are invited to at tend. Mr. Newton Lawrenoe, an old citisen of Paulding County, who lias been confined to his bed for a number of months un Jer the prostration of consumption, died last Saturday morning at his home near Owens’ mill, on Pumpkin vine. The burial was attended by a large concourse of relatives a d friends. Re. d the advertisement, to be found in another column, ot Prof- £. T. Pound, advertising his pop ular sjng books. The Professor instructed a class in vocal music iu Dallas lust week, using these books, and all were delighted with them. The name of Edwin T.

They Swept the Street.—Ou last Tuesday morning a number of citizens were busily engaged in sw epiug on main .street, and they were not sweeping for the amusement there was in it, but tiny meant to remove the rubbish which had accumuhited there, and 'besides, they ki.ew that “Old Walt” would “set-’em-ap” to a drink of thatpe.ro "Golden Grain” wliisk?y, which is the best wli'.s-- were attached’to the wpgon be come irightened and dashed off down the street in the direction of the depot. Mr. Braswell at firs’ attempted to check them up, but seeing the folly of such a course concluded his Bafety lay iu imme diately aoandouing the wagon by jumgin^. When he released his hold on the lins, preparatory to making his contemplated leap for safety, his mules dashed forward with a sudden bound, throwing Mr. Braswell, out of the wagon and dashing him upon the grnuud with considerable force. Several witnessed the accident and al most immedia ely they arrived upon the spot where Mr. Bras- welt lay, and he was taken up and carried into the Christian Hotel and Drs. Robertson and Foster soon strived and mad- an exami nation of his injuries. It was as certained that he had received severe wounds upon the head, and it is Jeard internal injuries. The mules continued their head long flight, taking ilie street lead- in out of town toward Powder gprings; but was stopped after running between a quarter and half mile. There was but li tie dammugc done to either mules or wagon. Mr. Braswell was moved from the hotel to his home soon af er the accident, and up to th» time of going to press was confin ed to his bed from the effect of his injuries. Interesting to Isulies. Our lady readers can hardly fail to have their attention called this week to the latest combina tion of improvements in that most useful of all domestic imple ments, the “sewing raichiue." As we understand it a machine for family use should meet first of all those requirements: It should be simple in i s m< chan- ism; it should run easily; it .should do a wide range of work; it should be as nearly noisless ns possible; it shoul 1 be light, hand some, durable, nu 1 us cli up as is consistent with excellence throughou'. These conditions tbe “Light Ruur.iug New Home” certainly meets.

Sometimes. Meant Zion Notes. Crops are improving since the cold spell in May. Some wheat is now being cut, Mr. •!• D. Goodwin presented a stalk of wheat grown on his farm that measured five and one half feet in length. He has one half of an acre that will average that length, also oats that wilt make at the rat« of fifty bnsliels to the acre. Who c*n beat that for this county? I noticed in passing through a portion of the Nineteenth and Utah districts, of this county, th» crops were spotted. On red land cotton looked well, hut on the grav lands cottor was very small tnd had the appearance of grow ing but little. Wheat was good where the land had been well prepared before it was sown. Early oats were fine; late oa's sorry. Some farms well cultivat ed. Mr. Editor, permit me to write yon all the news itbout the . crops, for I know all the mer chants in Dallas desire to know all about it, for they feel interest ed in this matter. In this section the crops are well worked, and the fanners are doing all they can to meet the harvest. The Sabbath School was orga nised at Mt. Zion on last 4th Sunday with twenty two names enrolled, and elected T. W, Reyn olds superintendant and James Tell assistant Some young men have left this section for parts nuknown. One thing lias become disgust ing in this part of the county, the yells ana cries of drank men passing the highway from Dallas, an<l now and then the noise ol pistols are heard.
