It also speaks in most impression able language to visitors and breaks in on the consciousness that thin iat a good town in which tej live and do business and rear a family.

The plant is to be in operation by Jan. 1, 1800. Among our new advertisers is the firm of W. A. and W. J. Nichols, the druggists who have opened up in the refitted Warthen brick. Col. George M.

Conley for S4O. The $50,000 contract for the mill, the hotel, and 100 double tenement houses at Trion has been let, we are told. That busy mart of industry now has $5,000 spindles. When the propos ed addition of 20,000 is made and the 200 needed families move in, won’t it be a magnificent example of the best sort of expansion ? Col.
