He Caught Snakes. P. Jones Bennett gave us a very snaky tale last week, but is corrobo¬ rated by several others, which makes it true. While fishing a few Sun¬ days ago he put out some set hooks, and going back to them in a short time found three moccasins on them. They had swallowed the hooks like a fish, and, being quite large, were very hard to land. It is nothing unusual for a fisherman to see snakes, but Jones must have had anusual amount of bait to catch them. J. T. Olive’s Speech, lion. J. T.

One of the greatest gatherings that has ever been there on such an occasion—a union singing. Toecoa, Martin and other places were well represented, and Caruesville was not left out. Among the leaders were Profs. Ben¬ nington, Farrow, the three Hayes’ and Ii. B. Moore, of near Carncs- ville. Surely this is a musical age. Besides good music there was a bountiful dinner, plenty of fried chickens, cakes and other eatables. YVe do not know whether Milton Ilampley and J. B. Kelly got their dinner or not—they looked hungry. Come back again, boys, and give no¬ tice of your coining, and we will make preparations for yon. The whole affair was an enjoyable one, with the exception of the appearance of a lit¬ tle too much whisky with some of the boys. YVhen will the government protect society from that vile stuff— whiskey ? YVe received a notice the other day calling for a contribution to erect a monument to the memory of some one who had died. Monuments are being erected all over the country, and it is right and just to show our appreciation of tho good men that have gone before. But who has ever thought of erecting a monument to the farmer? The country is dotted with the graves of farmers, men who subdued the country and laid the corner-stone of our American coun¬ try. They toil and labor all their days, and pass away and are forgot¬ ten. The farmer has never asked for a monument till lately. They ask for one in the form of protection, hut there is a great howl raised all over the country against it. It will not do; it is unconstitutional and fa- vors class legislation! Oh, God! what are the signs of the times and of thy coming? Surely there is a visible sign just now. Because in¬ iquity dotli abound the love of many will wax cold, but he that endures to the end will be saved.

It was indeed a kappy thought to print an entire novel in each number. Not a short novelette, but a long story suck as you are used to get in book form and pay from one dollar to one dollar and a half for. Not only that, but with each number you get an. abundance of other contributions , which gives you a good magazine besides the novel. It does riot follow in old beaten paths ,— which it an c<uy task,—but and is perpetually following discovering new and pleasant ones, them too. The ringing blows which have been struck on the gateway of popular favor, have resounded through¬ out the entire land, and to day Lippincott's Mag i- zine stands in the front rank of mouth ly publication r, and is the most wide ly-read-and-ta Iked- of publica¬ tion of its kind in the world.
