OUR JASPER LETTER.
I will try to fulfil my
but as you want news, this letter
will necessarily he short.
I find myself occasionally going
over the red hills of Putnam in
spite of myself, and in truth, if it
were not for j,our imagination, life
would hardly he worth the living
—a dead waste of barren facts in
the present, with no connection or
future: Rut as wo are, we can
hoi(1 conVerse wilb the loved of
oUer duyS) all(1 luJk Wi tli God about
t i_, e tf.ings in the unrevealed future
and fuel our selves ennobled because
<,{' the past, and richer because of
the^future. At least so it is v.-itli
and because of it, 1 can enjoy
the associations of old Putnam when
I wi 1. As I am no longer of Put
uam, 1 want to say soimiiiing about
Jasper, not Pulliam less, but Jas
per more. Rich in Agricultural re
and with a progressive peo
her future promises to be a
one- Her hopjo indusiries
are increasing, and at the present,
. subscriptions are being made for
| the purpose <d‘* erecting^" works for
j tlie mutiufacturitt ;4 0 T furniture, axe
|, ul( j ] loe lo-. plow stocks, hubs,
j spokos, runs &c , and her woods
nbounding in the best of material
suited for these pnrpcg s, of course
H w n, succeed.
Theso works will be h eated in
Montmello, and Hearn & Greene of
Datonton need not then ship their
wood from so great a distance as
now * as Gutnaiu can then draw upon
Ja l )0r - Indeed, Floyd, the Piedmont
Exposition pet, .is indebted to
Jasper, for it was here in Monticeilo
that Shorter laic! the foundation ol
(hat fortune with which he built
Shorter (Allege, one of Rome’s great
t . nl , e >pri-es, and if I had time
t0 gather up the facts. I could show
t!iat j„ lhe „ c t work of things, Jas
per is no little thread, It was here
Uislioj, Pierce, the grandad of
pulpit oratory begun IDs pupil
career, Jaspei’s air ifts in it an
ins]>iration, and, when the common
of our land receive the at
tention they deserve from the legis
lature, I predict that Irom the hill
aml vallies of Jasper will come many
the leaders of the future. Some ot
tons best business men are
boys, and her young men are
ou this side of the line
hunting for the lost rib.
In conclusion, but you need not
say anything about it, one of your
huge, lie,ivy but manly young fel
lows, who was recently over here,
was so captivated queenly maidens with the beauty * of
that le
lost consciousness so far as to fall
his buggy into a briar patch as
be drove oil' from the church for
Putnam. Mobs anon.
