Dr. AY. F. Blusingame is doiug a fine dental practice. He has a nice and at¬ tractive office, and a complete outfit of dental instruments, furniture, etc. Knox¬ ville is proud of her young dentist, and he deserves patronage. See his card in another column. Satisfaction guaranteed 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. AYright A Allen will sell you anyihing from a Barnesville buggy dowD to a block of chewing gum. Their business lias in¬ creased far beyond their expectation. In addition to the big btoek carried in their large and elegant new store, their old store hon<e is chock full of good^, be¬ sides carload lots stored in their freight house at the depot. Read their advert tisement and give them atrial. They arc 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 and enthusiasm in the work. 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 to eppreciate ir and try to love Him more and seive Him better. Politics aie pietty lively down here now. It is the topic of conversat.on. it matters not were you go. AVhen you meet a man the first thing asked is how is polices? AVell, it is a grand subject, and should be well studied, and when you know you are on the right side, then hollow as loud as you please. AVe are doing our b cst to learn it perfectly. \Ve hope that in the near future we will Lie so well educated and organized that when we put a man in the field we will not think o f such a thirg as getting beaten. The “Pleasant” Alliance met last Saf- urdav. AVe had a full attendance and settled the politital questions s atisfacto- rilv. 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. I am yours truly, ii. 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 is stopping with Airs. F. Danielly, of this place. Air. R. J. LeSeuer and family, of old Knoxville, and R. C. LeSeur, of Gaillard, are also the gueds of Airs. F.

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.

O. P. WRIGHT, Ordinary. 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.
