In our climate it would be very dif uilt to find a more frequent cause of c , rious ailments than taking cold. What [ i er weak place we have, whatever con itutional disorder we be subject to, cold , ill surely discover. We take cold be- S use our vitality is too low to ward off' l ; ie effects of the reduced temperature V ound us. Asa matter of first impor ‘ •':nce, then, to resist cold and various de- Vlngements of the system consequent, it < necessary by proper nutrition to main- I fin our natural animal heat; second, to i . :ita in this heat by a sufficient quantity * -'clothing; third, to regulate with care temperature of the air we breathe, otwithstanding the opinion current tith lovers of cold weather, a fire in the % bd room in winter is cheaper than a doctor’s bill, for owing to our inactive II andition during sleep, circulating of the 1 italizing blood is both slow and im -1 3rfeet, and lienee the danger of taking ‘ >1(1 by breathing cold air is greatly in i leased. A cold is the beginning of all lat is bad. If anyone is eoncious of hav ig caught one, feels cold chills running n p the back, let him apply mustard il lasters to the bottom of the spine and i ower parts of the back at once, and bv ; o doing avert a dangerous illness before < is too late and medical advice can be - 'rocured. It should never be forgotten ’ fiat heat is life, cold is death. —Scientif- i American. The i An article in the N. E. Farmer urges r l* - farmers a matter which we have of s‘en refee red to as being good policy as /ell as duty, the production o? the best , feverything. It. says: “We should aim 1 produce the best, whether it be i -pple oi beef; and in the marketing ;f farm produce, it should be graded, as lie best will sell much higher, and the j . ° iext grade will sell for about the same is if the best had not been removes; so t will be seen that quite a gain is made rhen there is a difference of $1,75 in a tarrel of apples, or 37 1-2 cents in a nishel of potatoes, as at present quota ions; and in anything the farmer has to ell it makes a great difference whether it : Ie first class or only common. Cut this i J s not all—it makes a great difference vhether a man has the name of selling T i .... first-class article without any deoeption ■r the reverse of this. Every farmer hould lay plans this winter, and next ( ea son St live to carry them out, for the reduction of the best. Nothing else t , ... ( hould satisfy him, and after it is pro meed, he should put it upon the market most attractive shape. An Ung’Siah Impostor. They have impostors and tramps in En jland as well.as in this country. A late • English papej says: A singular case was brought before he magistrate of Devizes on Thursday. ,1 appeared that the landlady of a public ouse at Lidewav,. who had died, was bout to be buried, when a well-dressed pan entered, and was made known as a on of deceased, a carpenter, who had eft home and had m t been heard of for fight years. The man was overcome \ ith grief, and insisted on seeing his Mother’s face once more. The coffin was iccordingly opened, when he Hung liim elf across the body and wept bitterly, did had to be forcibly dragged away, do spoke to persons present, and gave atisfactory answers about things that uid happened ten years ago—such as ,'orbing m an ad joining carpenter'd shop —and conversed with a cousin of the nissing man about a visit which he had aid to him ill Berniondf-ey. black lollies were borrowed lor him, and lie 11 tended the funeral ns chief mourner f ml wept piteously over the grave.

From Texas. Chapped Hill, Texas, May 0, 1879. Mr. Editor —l am an ex-Dadeite. I have received three copies of the Ga zette; I like it very much, and if I thought I could contribute anything in the way of news that would bo likely to interest any of its readers, i would most assuredly be happy to do so. lam living at Chdppel Hill, Wash ington county, Texas, a very nice little town of about 800 inhabitants. It is di vided into three wards, namely: Chris tian Ridge, Baptist Hill and Up In Town. Jt has three handsome church buildings: Methodist, Baptist and Pres byterian, with regular pastors and Sab bath schools; also two large and band some college buildings, with flemishing schools in each; the Soul University, male; and Chappel Hill Female College, The Austin branch of the Central railroad runs throng this place, two or three trains passing daily. There is about twenty business houses doing bus iness here. Merchandise of every de sciipt ion can be purchased here at about the same price as in older states. The health of this vicinity is as good as any portion of the southern country where corn and cotton can be grown s ic ccssfully. The land produces very well. Farmers make from one-hall to one bale of cotton, and from twenty to sixty bush els of corn per acre, according to cultiva tion and seasons, and the rain tails are as regular as in most of the cotton grow ing regions of the south. 1 think (to make a long story short) this part of Texas is uiisurpas.se l as a farming country; however there is too much negro labor here. (Society is some what impaired by the negroes—they are too strong at the polls. We would be better off if the negro was gone and in their stead a class of sober, industrious frugal white citizens, such as are not afraid of labor and are anxious to im prove their financial condition, and who would sympathize tht white peo ple’s interest at the ballot box, and aid in securing such wholesome restraints in the administration of county affairs,as will secure the common good. Crops are looking well —prospects generally good. Farmers are laying by corn, plowing cotton Arc. Respectfully, Bittle Till. Mr. Editor. —Seeing a paper the oth er day from your place to \Y. P. 11.

I am near the Brasses River in which there is plenty offish, and game on its banks. Crops are flattering here. AYe live with half the labor here that they do in old states. If you have room in your columns for this you can publish it for the sake of my friends there us they probably may think I’m dead. Geo. 11. Far sum. Answer lo “Stareye.” Ed. Gazette —ln ycur paper of May Bth appeared a conf; iiunication under the caption of and signed “Starcye;” but “Starcyc” is a misnomer. Depend upon it, some moon eyed, cross-eyed individual wrote that edifying article. Perhaps it was our little would-be Wildwood Blue-stucking —a second Madam de Stuel in our midst, >f whose critical acumen we have such convincing evidence. Ah, what a fine tiling it is to be a critic! But Lady Blue’s license has carried her beyond the bounds of etiquette, and allowed her privileges which, were 'she not a genius , and a criti *, would he considered not on ly egotistic, hut ungenerous, and ex tremely impolite. Of course we are hum bled to tin dust by her contempt and ho ly borrow of the “little minnows” who bad the ill luck to belong to that fishing party; hit wo would respectfully sug gest for Lady Blue’s consideration the Esth chapter of.Corinthians. 1 daresay the “good people of Wild l wood” feel doubly paid for the courte ous invitation they extended to Lady Blue; and as for the young men—“small minnows”, 1 should have said—they have resolved to show their high appre ciation of the kind, instructive limits given them on the last picnic by making iue preparation for tne next, which will oe at the same place on the 3d Saturday >f this month. "Wu have determined to build a large platform to dance on, no “nebulous vol nncs of dust” shail “Stareye” veil; we vi 11 also have setters on the ground, and we are dele ;mined io have girls enough to keep the boys from “hugging sap lings,-’ even if it require Lady Blue her self to make out the number. We ex pect to have good music, plonty of lem onade, etc., and last, but not least, we will have a magnificent judge’s stand, or rather a critic’s bench. This will he an elevated seat, supported by gigantic pil lars five feet high,and substantial enough to sustain a weight of 95 pounds. We will respectfully invite lady Blue to fill the chair. Asa token of esteem we will crown her august head with a plain white, unadorned, cone-shaped cap, ta pering gradually ton point,two feet from the base. We extend a cordial invita tion to the citizens of Dado and adjacent counties. Buckeye. [The above was intended for our last issue.but was unavoidably crowded out.

Jacob Houts started a meeting on Etna Mountain, which, from the inter est shown and the evidont good pros pects to bring souls into the fold of God, was continued until the present writing. The meeting resulted in four persons being most happily converted, several baptisms, and five accession* to the church. Business compelled Bro. Houts to bring the meeting to a close, whereas several penitents were still re maining at the altar. He contemplates, as he says, “to try them again soon,” and lie having secured the promise of the penitents to hold out faithful, will doubtless have another glorious revival there. Bro. H. is ever aiivc- to the in terest of the church, and ever untiring for the advancement of the cause he so creditably to himself arid church defends. Very Respectfully, Marius. Whiteside, Tenn., Miy 13, 1879. Quarterly ’fedsaig. This meeting began last Saturday by an able, practical sermon by Rev. J. 11. Keith, and in the evening there was a long, interesting session of the quarterly conference. We were saddened by t lie meagre reports from the stewards. We elicited the regretful information that there had not been one-third of the as scssmeiiLUtfi^^ML.half of the conference year gone. /Brethren this will never do; we must pay trie ministers of Christ if we would prosper. The interest of the meeting was great ly enhanced by the presence of Uc\t J. W. Robertson, who has been at the Vanderbilt University at fc for some time. We learned frondnTim that he would go immediately to the Wash ington circuit to Jill out the line/wired year, caused by the illness of lireJßar ett. Bro R, is a rising young man, and vve wish him much success. The meeting continued with a tolera* hie degree of interest for several days. Rev. J. ID Keith preached several warm and glowing sermons during the meeting. The next quarterly meeting is to be at Sulphur Springs, near Wildwood, Ga. Foi the Gazette ) TO BILLS l! CAIttERGA. r.Y M. A. A. 1,. I know you loved me long ago, When 1 was young and fair; When my cheeks with health did glow, ’l'wassuid such beauty ’ rare. When I bad friends and lovers too, And plenty love to share, There was none so good and kind as vou, An 1 “love me,” was your prayer. My heart was happy llien, and free; Ere long by some mysterious fate, I found my heart had gone out to thee; 1 tried to stop it, but it was too late. You knew it, 1 t‘ol i you about it, And O, flow happy you did appear; My love ! you Could not live without it, And “love me always,” was your prayer. Now my frionds have all grown cold, And few, if any, court my favor, But the worst o f ali in this is told, You, too,, have g own unclever. Now 1 find that yo can live \\ itbout the heart vou’v* won; But no regrets —if I’d a thousand hearts to give They would all he thine as one. lie who betrays another’s secret been us he has quarreled with him, was never worthy hi the sacred name of friend; a breach of kindness will not justify a breach of trust. Communications. We have on hand several articles that will find a quiet rest in the labyrinthian mazes of the waste-basket. r l he one from Turnip Salad Bend, for the want of a real name; the one from Fox Moun tain, for the want of orthography, rhet oric and general interest; the one l:om “Owleye,” because it contains about the same thing as another article published in this week’s issue. 1 here arc also others crowded out this week for want of space that will appear in cur next.

An Article that Will Make the I’.nhl and w the Lirajr Headed Rejoice. Of all the compounds which the chemist’s art has given to the world, for hundreds of years, for the purpose of restoring the hair to its natural giowth and color, not one has been perfect. Many of the hair dressings of the day are excellent, but the great mass of the stuffs sold for promoting the growth and bringing back the original color are mere humbugs, while not a few are positively pernicious in their efforts upon the scalp and the structure of the hair. All hair dyes are well known to chemists as more or less poisonous, be cause the change in color is artificial, and does not depend upon a restoration of the functions of tfie scalp to their natural health and vigor. The falling out of the hair, the accumulations of dandruff, and the premature change in color, are all evi dences of a diseased condition of the scalp and the glands which nourish the hair. To arrest these causes the article used must po soss medical as well as chemical virtues. hii 1 t lie change must begin ?m</cu the scalp to he of permanent and lasting benefit Such an article has been discovered, and like many other wonderful discoveries it ig found to consist of elements almost in their natural state. oil is the article which is made to work suc h extraordinary results; but it is a'ter the best refined- arti cle ley been chemically treated, and com pletely deodorized, that it is in proper con dition for the toilet, it was in far-off Rus sia that the effects of petroleum upon the hair were first observed; a Government officer having notic-*d that a partially bald headed servant of his, when trimming the lamps, had a habit of wiping his od be smeared hands in his scanty locks, and the result was, in a few months, a much finer head of black, glossy hair, than he ever had he fore. The oil was. tried on horses and cattle that had lost their hair from the cattle plague, and the results were as rapid as they were marvelous. The moms and even the tails ef horses which had fallen out were completely restored in a few weeks, these experiments were heralded lo the World, but the knowledge was practically useless to the prematurely bald and gray, as no one in civilized society could tol erate the use of refined petroleum as a dressing for the hair. But the skill of one of our chemists has overcome theditlicully, and, by a process known only to hi ins It', Le has, after very elaborate and costly ex periments, succeeded in deodorizing refined petroleum, which renders it susceptible of being handled as daintily as the famous enn de coloyne. The experiments widi the deodorized 1 quid on the human hair were attended with the most astonishing results. A few applications, where the hair was t hin and falling, gave remarkable tone and vigor to the scalp and the hair, and the natural color began to appear almost from the first application. Every particle of dandruff disappears on the fir-t or second dressing, and the liquid, so seunrhiug in its nature, seems to penetrate to the roots at once, and set up a radical change from the start. It is well known that the most beautiful col ors are made from petroleum, and by some mysterious oe atiou of nature the urn oi this artieie gradually imparts a beautiful light brown color to the hair, which, by continued use, deepens to a black. The color remains permanent for an indefinite length of time, and the change is so grad ual that the most intimate friends can scarcely detect its progress. In a word, it is the most wonderful discovery of the age, and well calculated to make the prema turely bald and gray rejoice.
