FROM FAIRVIEW.
Since our last the wheels of old
father “Time,” seems to have been
freshly oiled and has moved si >1 Gy
and swiftly on as if hurrying to
finish their never-ending journey
Our community is at peace with
itself and all mankind, everybody
being busy with his or her own af
fairs; not a marriage or death since
our last; the health of the people,
generally good; only one new case
of measles, that of Mr. Sam Alex
ander ; is not so well as he has been
Miss Mattie Espy, who is attend
ing the Summerville High School,
brought home with her last Friday
Miss Jennie Rich, of your town.
■ We were glad to see the young la
dies and so were some young men,
from the way they called; but
don’t tell the Capt.
. Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Horn, of
, Chattoogaville, were the guests of
their daughter, Mrs. George Horn,
last Saturday and Sunday.
Mr. John Calhoun is sojourn
ing at this place for awhile; we arc
. glad to have him among us.
Messrs. Watson Alexander and
George Horn started out last
Wednesday to trade a mule belong
ing to Berry Wheeler, (col,) when
just below Alpine it suddenly
dropped down in the road ; imagine
the surprise of the gentlemen when
on jumping out they found its
muleisb spirit had flown to parts
. unknown—he was dead, dead.
Your correspondent paid a short
visit to Lyerly last Saturday and
found it indeed on a boom. Keep
your eye on that place; i* - is the
coining town of the South. Drs,
J A. Smith and Shamblin have
bought several lots there and will
begin building at an early day with
a vim to locate there permanently.
Rev. D. T. Espy filled his ap
pointment at Mount Harmony yes
terday in his usual earnest and el
oquent way of preaching.

A CROWDED REGION.
Some Startling Statistics Show
ing The Population of Hades.
A correspondent writes to the
New York Sun: In round num
bers the earth has a population of
1,300,000,000, of wl«n 200,000,000
are professed Christians, the other
1,100,000,000 being Mohammedans,
Buddhists, Jews, Pagans and
Heathen. The whole race was con
demned to eternal punishment for
the sin of Adam. This was tile
fall of man, from which there was,
and is, no redemption save through
the death of Christ.
Biblical chronology gives the
earth a period of about 6,oooyears.
From Adam’s time to Christ was
4,000 years, during which period
no human souls were saved. The |
population may then have averaged i
1,000,000,000. Three generations,!
or 3,000,000,000 pass away in each
century. Forty centuries, there
fore, consigned 120,000,000,000 of
men to eternal tire, and, for all we
know’, they are there now. In the '
1,900 years which have elapsed |
since the birth of Christ 57,000,000,-
000 more of human beings have
lived and died. If all the Chris-1
tians, nominal and real, who have |
ever lived on the face of the earth I
have been saved, they would not
number more than eighteen thous
and millions. Now, if we deduct
this latter number from the grand
total of one hundred and seventy- !
seven thousand millions, we find
one hundred and fifty-nine thous-!
j and millions of souls who are suf- !
' sering the tortures of hell lire, as
I against eighteen thousandjuillions
i who have escaped. But this is not
i the whole truth. N ibody believes
that more than 10 per cent, of the
professed Christians are saved.
i Calvinists themselves say the elect
are few. If this is a fact. Heaven,
contains but eighteen hundred mil-;
j lions, against a population in hell
of one hundred and seventy five
'thousand millions.
A Maine deacon says that alter
he had cut the hi .1 oil’ of a hen

“An Ocular Delusion” is the ti
tle of a bright social study in ser- !
ial shape, which will begin in the !
New York Ledger of March 1.
The story holds the mirror up to
club life in the metropolis, and
touches lightly but with the mas
terly and suggestive stroke of the '
etching hand, some of the more
distinctive sides of New York so
ciety life. Several of the charac
ters are so startlingly typical that
they may be taken for any one of
scores of the members of the “Four
Hundred.” The hero is a tine
combination of manliness, ready
ingenuity and audacity a youth
with a rare amount of phosphorus
in his cerebral gray matter and an
equally generous amount of red
corpuscles in his veins—a charac
ter which the author has elaborated
with sympathetic interest, and
which, according to the impression
given by the advance sheets, re
presents an oarsman cf a recent
crew of a leading American college.
The author, by the way, is that
brillant young newspaper worker,
Frank Howard Howe, son of the
late postmaster-general, Timothy
F. Howe, of Wisconsin.

An Original Love Letter.
Dear Girl: Since I seed you
first at Jack Williamson’s log rol
' i ;in’ party down on Coon branch
tuther night, nr has been
jumpin’ around in my png box
; like a toad frog « stiring
tied to its leg. My hart and sole
goes out arter you. My love for
you are like a young steer in clover
I grows stronger day by day. Since
i first I sot my eyes on you, I loved
I you with a love that never looses
1 ; its grip on the strings and ropes of
the hart. I’ve seed lots of gals in
(myti me that looked sweet and
’! temptin but none that cavort around
I in a man’s effections like unto jou,
’: ami kick up my hopes ami asp ra
! tions, that matrimony only ca i
J satisfy. You arc not only pt rty
but you are devellish and t ha)
J
is what catches me where I can
get loose. When I seed you kick
1 ! that cigarette out’en Tom Holley’s
! mouth I thought I’d just go off
j and die a laughin ; such a trick as
’ that would tickle a fool, let alone
’ me. Jack said you kicked his
shoe to show what a pretty shoe
you had on, but I know you done
it jist for fun and tarnation devel
ment. I wanted to hug you so bad
that 1 had to hold to a bed post to
keep from grabbin you, Suppose
I had tried it, would you ha. ■
kicked rne in the mouth?
Dad went out to day to run the
! hogs out’en the field and run agin
a stump and skinned his shin
I plum to his nee. The place looks
awful red, jist like it has been rub
bed with poke berrios. I’m goin to
i Birmingham next week and get me
a pair of btitehes and gallowses,
then I’m coinin’ to see you : n
som? sorter style. Sto’ gallowses
they say, arc mighty fashionable
up tliar, and I’m goin to keep up
; with the fashion if it costs tin <f
:my best shouts. What would yer
say if 1 was ter ax yer ter yoke up
I with me in matrimony? I’ve the
coon skins ready to buy the license
an old preacher Scudder owes me
four days work, and I can get him
to marryjas fur that. Let me
know as soon as you get though
helpin your dad pull fodder, an’ if
you willin’ to experiment a little
in married life we’ll hop right in to
it as soon as 1 can get a log home
raised and my hogs put up to fat
ten. Yotiss in Love.
