and charges reasonable.
There have been twenty-four nice
dwellings and nine new store houses built
in Knoxville in the last two years, besides
quite a number of the old buildings have
been remodeled and repaired. This in¬
cludes both the old and the new towns,
as some term them, but it all constitutes
Knoxville for “united we stand.”
The Knoxville Sabbath school have
just received a supply of beautiful badges
which they expect to wear to the An¬
nual Association which will be held at
Ceres on Saturday before the second Sun¬
day in August. The school here is more
flourishing and interesting than ever be¬
fore, They will be at Ceres in full force,
and expect to win the prize at the next
song contest.
Rev. L. R. Allison returned from
Cuthbert on Tuesday last, with his in¬
fant babe, accompanied by his sister-in-
law, Aliss Ida Domingos. Air. Allison
has been in Cuthbert tor several weeks
attending the bed side of his sick wife,
who had gone there on a visit, hoping
that it might improve her health. In¬
stead of improving, she grew worse, and
died last week. The sorely bereaved hus¬
band and sister have our heartfelt sym¬
pathies and condolence.
Crawford county is now independent
of other markets. Knoxville can supply
all of the people's demands, and we defy
any other market to offer better prices.

cautious and obliging. AVill appreciate
your patronage and give you satisfaction.
Fair View and Its School.
Fair View i« the name of a school
house three miles east of Knoxville, near
the home of Air. John T. Andrews, about
two years ago. Mrs. Andrews, although
a bachelor, felt the need of a school in
his community. With uniting succeeded energy he in
went to work and soon
having erected a neat and suitable school
house. Air. Andrews was elected princi¬
pal. It was decided that the school
house should be known as Fair A'iew.
The location would not suggest filename,
for the. view is anything but panoramic.
The whole surrounding country seems to
be original forests and appears to be
sparcely settled. A jierson uot acquaint¬
ed with that section of country would
naturally think Fair View a poor location
for a school house, for he would wonder
where the children were to come from,
but they come. The pupils number from
seventy-five to eighty. Last year this
was the finest school in the county, and
this year is second to none except the
Knoxville High School.
The excellent valuable community services highly Airs. appit-
ciates the ol An¬
drews, the preceptress of the school, and
attributes its miraculous success to htr
efforts.
AATiile speaking of the literary school
we will mention the Sabbath-school at
this place, which was organized about
one year ago. Air. T. F. Mathews was
elected superintendent. He put The his school zeal

continued to improve, never lagged
through the winter season. Has now an
attendance of from seventy-five to on*'
hundred. It is as interesting a school as
it has been our pleasure to attend The
singing is always good, but they have
determiclcd to improve it. On Sunday,
13th instant, money was made up to buy
an organ, which was ordered on the Alon¬
day following. They have also intro¬
duced the cornet. I have no doubt that
this school will win the banner at the
next song contest when the annual asso¬
ciation comes off at Ceres. Hurrah for
Fairview! She is taking the lead. A'ou
neighborhoods who are disposed to ask, of
“Cau there any good thing come out will
Nazareth?” had better rally or you
be left behind.
Clark’s Mill Items and Politics.
The farmers of this lection are very
busy now laying by corn and getting
grass out of the cotton. They all have
a great deal to encourage them, for ciops
are looking exceedingly fine thiough this
section of country. The year has been
remarkably favorable. The rain and the
sunshine have c< me, it seems, just right.
YN’e have not want<d for rain one day,
and ihere lias not been one day's rain too
much. The hand ol Providence is favor¬
ing us all the way through. AVe ou*ht

and should be well studied, and when

CULLODEN NOTES.
We have very little news this week
beyond the usual order of things.
Our town is moving on in the even
tenor of its way, with an occasional di¬
version.
The farmers are happy, having recently
had very fine seasons, and the crops are
in excellent condition.
A revival is in progress this week at
the Methodist church. Good congrega¬
tions are in attendance, and rau :h inter¬
est is being manifested in the services.
Luke Slaughter, (col.) was shot and
instantly killed by Mr. J. T. McKibbins
last Stturdav night about 8 o'clock. The
ghootitig was in self-defense.
Sincerely hoping that the Herald
will have a long and prosperous career,
and much success to all who read it.

A party of young men from this place
vicited Cumberland Island this week.
They returned safely, and report a most
enjoyable trip. One of the party, Mr.
J. M. Jordan, brought with him a turtle
weighing over 300 pounds—quite a show*
on the streets.
Warrior Items.
Uncle Ira Jennings reports that on last
Thursday there was a severe hail storin
between Warrior and Macon; says the
lightning stiuck and killed three mules
and a horse for one Mr. Tom Lane.
Air. A. -J. Dennett lost a tine mule last
week.
The picnic at McElmurrav's mill last
Saturday was a grand success.
Air. Jennings is a good friend to the
Herat,d. He brings in new subscribers
nearly ever time he brings the maill.
Tliere seems to be a general misunder-
standing as to which of the candidates
are up and which are down. We think
this difficulty would be obviated if they
would iuq their announcement in the
Herald. They c mldn’t theu be mis-
represented.
KNOXVILLE ITEMS.
Miss Laura Long, of Fort Valley, is

place.
Air. R. J. LeSeuer and family, of old
Knoxville, and R. C. LeSeur, of Gaillard,
are also the gueds of Airs. F. Danielly.
Too much rain for crops. The heavy
rain Saturday was damaging to cotton
and watermelons.

Why We Have Failure* in the Alli¬
ance.
In the Iloly Book we are taught that
only those iu discharge of duty could ex¬
pect the promise. Then how are action we to
expect harmony, unity, concert of
when we so often deviate from the truth;
set aside the obligation which wc should
hold as sacred as truth itself. Another
reason, aspiring political tricksters, in
and out of the Alliance, disrupting the
order, deceiving the brotherhood and
causing dissent ion and strife one for an¬
other. The acts of the Alliance should
be kept as the obligation which the con¬
stitution places them under when made a
member. Let each and every Alliance-
man answer this question for himself. If
he has not, then he has violated the con¬
stitution and canuot expect peace and
harmony. When a county meeting of
the Alliance, which is made up of dele¬
gates from the different sub-Alliances, is
called together and enter into resolutions
are ignored, and the members in small
numbers enter into caucuses and couriers
are sent flying hither and thither all over
the county, misrepresenting and useing
the outside schemers' tricks to satisfy
selfish greediness, and that too, in open
violation of constitutional resolutions,
may expect nothing more than failures,
and that of the most hurtful kind. The
place to settle Alliance questions is iu the
Alliance while in session ; if a question is
sprung that you oppose lisc and define
your position, and if you are defeated,
like a true Democratic AlHaneeman,
abide the majority and carry out the
resolution. Oh. what a sad misfortune
that deception ever entered the ranks of
the Alliance. Let every AUianceman’s
thoughts retrace his acts for the last three
weeks, and if he has violated his obliga¬
tion by setting aside the resolutions of
Ills brotherhood in session, let him re¬
pent, reform and fall back in ranks un¬
der the banner of a true Alliance man.

Wild Onions Flavor Butter.
The farmers in many parts of New
Jersey are complaining of the rank and
luxuriant growth of wild onions which
this year seems to be greater than ever
before. The cows when turned out to
pasture evince a surprising fondness for
the weed, and the flavor is reproduced,
verv objectionably, in their milk and
butter, both of which are often rendered
quite useless. Calves whose mothers
have been grazing in fields where wild
onions hold alien on the land sicken and
sometimes die. #i
The wild onion of New Jersey is en
tircly different from the cultivated veg¬
etable of Bermuda. Its odor is powerful from
enough to draw tears at ten paces
any eyes, however unused to the melting
mood, and if a young woman is so silly
as to place the smallest particle of one of
them betweeu her lip* on Monday
morning, she will greatly enhance her
folly if she consents to meet her sweet-
heart before the following Saturday
evening.—INew York Herald.
