C-ongress convened last Monday.
Carlisle was elected speaker of the
house. The president’s message is
long, and touches plainly upon the
most important matters of national
legislation.
It may he that a man can love
but one woman in a life time, hut
if he doesn’t get married too early
he can have lots of fun. trying to
find out which woman it is that ho
can love.
Oh, yes, it is easy enough to
make money on the all cotton sys¬
tem, when the, tanning is done on
paper, but when it cornea to the
reality of the thing it is demonstra¬
ted every time that the successful
farmers all make something to eat
at home.
Money is good for nothing unless
you know the value of it by expe¬
rience. Give a hoy $20,000 and
put him in business, and the
chances are that he will lose every
dollar of it before lie is a year older.
Nine out of ten of the rich men of
our country to day started out in
life as poor boys, with determined
wills, industry, perseverance, econ¬
omy, and good habit c .
A man stopping his paper, wrote
the editor of an exchange as fol¬
lows : “L think iolks ottentto spend
thef munny for paypers, ini daddy
didn’t and every body Red he was
the intelligentest man in the coun¬
ty and bed the smartest famly of
hois that ever dugged dispatch taters.” with Old
pal. the neatness and
which you sling United States
proves that a child’s spelling hook
would become you far better than a
newspaper. It is not often that we
meet with such smark ‘tater’ Alecks
as yourself. Good bye.
A newspaper once contained an
advertisement for a man to fill a
certain position, which concluded
with:‘‘No discouraged men need
apply.” discouraged This was worldly wisdom ,
fora man counts for
very little in this world’s battle; he
is defeated in advance; he faints in
the day of adversity; he falters in
the conflict; lie halts in the race;
lie weakens beneath the burdens
and trials of active life. TLis world
can do very little for discouraged
men. It calls for men of high
hope; men who have not found out
that all is vanity and vexation of
spirit; men who arc not weary
chasing earth mocking phantoms,
and who are ready for new enter¬
prises and new opportunities.
MILITARY.
The military company boM its regular meet
ttg at the cou’t bouse Monday night. Some
business of importance was transacted. Now
that the company .is ce' tainly a success we
feel that it would not be a>ulss to congratulate
the boys and to publicly express ovr apprecia¬
tion and admiration of their untiling ouergy
ami harmonious work in pe.-fect’ngtho o'can
lotion of the only Mittta y Company Conye.s
ever had, The sp’-lt made man fest by all of
the members of th’a company in working for
its success is a splendid indication thai our

remarks from some of ourpeople. The young

of making the company a success, How far
they have succeeded in their alms the follow¬
