Local Melange Col. Oscar Reese, of is "here this week. The hit clog—well, lie’s never failed to holler yet. Bring us any kind of country produce on subscription. Mrs. .T. G. Felton is quite sick at her home three miles north of town. Mr. A. B. Walton, of Buncombe, is attending court as a juror this week. ('lever \Y ash Golden was m town the first of the week on busi¬ ness. Judge \V F. Brown, a prominent attorney of Carrollton, is hero this week. Populists, read Chairman Mize's appeal, and act upon his suggos- 1 10 ns at once. Col.AV. K. Fielder, of the Cedar- town bar, was here the first of the week on business.

Mr. Candler declines to meet his democratic opponents in joint de- bate/‘Nooody lielieved he would date to accept the challenge. Cols.:. Head & Head, Lloyd Thomas, McBride & Craven, lL G. Brock and QL H. Hutchens, of Tal¬ lapoosa, are at tending court here this week. The prospect for an abundant fruit crop was never' brighter at this season of the year, a fact, that ought to make the heart of every country editor leap with joy. If the present congress will es¬ tablish honest election methods in the south, it would do a great work. But it won't even make an r. - off or t in that direction. Quite a number of our friends from the country were in town shojiping last Saturday, wind many ot them called in t'o - compliment The Tk r-4 une for its grand work of rotor « * . There will be a meeting of ox- confederato soldiers at this place Saturday. Tho object of the meet¬ ing is to more fully organize a camp for H 10 county. A large crowd is expected. Better be called a crank in this age and fight for your rights than become the tool'of corporate ra¬ pacity that promises nothing for the future but industrial slavery fer the masses. Like tho old Turk who justified his burning of the great library at Alexandria on the plea that, “if the books agree with the Koran there is no need of them, and .if they do not they are pernicious, and ought to be destroyed.“ so Mr. Candler refuses to meet Mr. * , Atkinson in joint debate on the plea that it they agree there is no need of debate and if they do not, joint debates would be pernicious because they would degenerate into mud-flim . - Vugusta Tribune. tribune kodak. I was lately reading accounts ol trio Gnomons yield of; -hi m . \ IttS- kn and S uitli Africn, when ! wa ; - forcibly struck by the puiy-< • visit of an inhabitant of tie dan- ot Mars to one of our ivnsibus m! west, New, it is said that 11 V- . tho planet issues certificates iv- deemable in labor or produce unu the inhal itiuits know nothing of values of any kind of u.cml as money. The senator OW'.U hi:? visitor out to show him se,me ot his wealth, and told bin that h m was a silver mine yielding- .-wh :• percent.of silver and sfich a per cent, of gold, hut that In was not working his silver mine, as tin governn out had demonetized si. - ver. The visitor wanted to know what use they had for silver; the senator told him they used it as money till 1873. The visitor want¬ ed to know what use they had for money lie was told that, it was a medium of exchange, but now the government had so mu-h -fit on hand they had quit using it only in the arts. The visitor: '•You tell me there is a good deal ol go.u in America?” The senator said theib was. Well, ’• save- the visitor, • what will vciu* government " no •* ^ got-too muengold ..... i u senator looked reflectively, and scratching his head, said: it be d—m’d if I know ! Lot's go back to the.hotel. Now, if rejiorts he true I sge no reason why in-a few yij'ars.tlfere sjiould not. he as much or niore gold in the United States as there is silver, because the si! - ver mines are not being work'd and the gold mines are running in full blast. The only trouble is. England takes it away ;h fast as fast, as we got it, owing to bein;m> deeply involved with them. Well, these • beautiful .'prim; mornings,makes one fbel’calui and defend, and as Bill An would say, I was ruminating this morning while sitting or. my verandah an nit the beauties of natun , the putting forth of vegetation, and how man¬ kind should feel toward oneanoth- or, when my wi fe said the coo. had jumped out of the lot. This broke my meditation and somewhat dis¬ qualified my mind for calm or se¬ rious consideration for the time being, l ilt regaining composure 1 imagined my feelings a kin to those attributed l>v Leigh Hunt, Englands diadactic poet he wrote, of Alum Ben Adbem. May .his tribe increase. Awoke one night from a dream of peace, And saw within the moonlight it: the room, Making rich as a lilly in doom. An angel writing in a book of gold. Exceeding peace had made Bon Adhem bold, And to the vision in the room he said: What writest thou? the vision raised its he id And answered with one accord The names of those who loved the Loid. And is mine one,, said Abuo; Nay, not so; Abuo spoke more low But cheering up said: Then I pray write rue as one who loves his fellow men. The angel wrote and vanished. Tho next night came with a great awakening light, And shewed tho names of those Whom the love of God had blest; Ancllo! Ren Adhem’s name led alP the rest, A Man A rout Town.

J. I). Tuhnee, IT C. ----—-«op»—v FROM TALLAPOOSA. Wo hear much complaint about the excessive hot weather. But the people will hive something to complain about, and we are cora- pelled to have weather, but there are those who complain at any kind that might come. So it had just as well he this balmy spring weather, that brings the buds and blossoms as to be rainy or cold. We have many evidences that spring is upon us, not the least of which is that the air is redolent with the perfume of fertilizer; and the stores are full of new spring goods—so many things t > torn; the purse of fomineity. Miss Amanda Shannon, our pop- u,ar ^lilmnor, has gone to Opelika, Ala., to be away another season. She leaves her business here in the hands of Airs. Lassiter. Mrs. H. D.
