Hello'. from TelephoneJonvsyili.k, June ID.?The farmers got ir a few days work the latter part of last week The weather was very warm and every day counted. Several more such days are needei on the farms just now. There were sumi heavy rains below Jonesvillc yesterday oven ing. We bad but little rain here, hut hai a regular electric storm. Some of us tha very reluctantly lial lightning rods latelj placed to our dwellings, felt a little mon easy than others, while the forked lightning was playing around our heads and houses with such heavy peals of thunder. Messrs. Scott aii'l 1$ shop started tlioii separator near town Inst Saturday, Tliej threshed a few crops of wheai, which wapretty fair, though it did not turn out quit* ns well as expected. Tito grains arc go,u ee and plump, and there will tic a fair croj ng made: so our people are till right on thi y, bread question. As rot* meat 1 have notli in? to say that is encouraging. It seems that tlie darkies are making on k,e pretty well on molasses. Blackberries art 's* ripe now and the colored people, and sotni of the white folks, too, are making pot pie! sweetened with molasses: and they say ok g ncd" may go. i- If the farmers would set down on theiren ur trust like they did on the jute bagging trust cr they could whip them out in the same way ns Unr town and community has some sick ht ncss, but none very serious that 1 know of ri- except Mrs. I>. ft.

We can't think of everything at once. George Petty, our perpetual talker, killed a snake of the coach-whip species, last week ma' measured b leet and V inches in iengtb. In a private letter from Joe Littlejoha, colored, late of this county, we learn that the crop prospects in Arkansas is gloomy. They have had rain almost continuously for eight weeks, and crops are drowned out. An excitement took place among some boys near Wilkinsville one day last week which is funny enough to entitle it to a notice in our news budget. A young man, Jim iiarman, came running to the house for a gun. and said he had found a bear or some kind of a "varmint" in a briar thicket. Mrs. C. \Y. Whisotinnt and others remonstrated with him and told liirn it was nil nonsense to think of such a thing : but be held to bis opini 11 and determined to make investigation. Accordingly he proceeded to the briar thicket gun in hand, when, lo! and behold he fouud it was some buzzards ili-Miinil ?Uo wrwiii of m drnd cat. We can beat the world on absent-mindedness. Here is our sample: An old gentlem?n concluded to give his married daughter a pig. He went to work and male a box for shipping it. His little grandchild stood by and watched h in make the b<?x, and when he had nailed the top on "hard and fast," the child s lid : "Grandpa, how are you going to i>ut the pig in the box, now?" Through the 'nte wet spell the grass ha? had full sway, and in many places it seems to have come to s'ny. A few dry days, howefcr, will make a wonderful improvement on the farms if our people nuke proper use of them. Mr. 0. 11. Fowler is remodeling the Garner mills at Skull Shoals. Dr. Garner promises that no pains or expense will be spared to make those tlie best mills in the county ; and be is right, too. If a thiug is worth doiug at alt it is worth doing right. People who raise wheat will go a lung way to a giod mill to gt in i it. We have been unceremoniously drawn over the coals by an anonymous correspondent, simply forspc-king in kind terms of the iditor of the Times, and also for endorsing Gov. Tillman's action in commuting the denth sentence of Charner Thomas to lifetime imprisonment. To vcproduce this document would give our article a "crazy quill" appearance, and we only ask the in :ulgeucc of our readers to say that if wc have given any oHenco to "people who attend to their own business" in what wc sai l of either gentlemen, wc will take olf our hat and ask pardon, and also to congratulate the writer upon his being s > fortunate as to live in such a neighborhood of such folks. A community i that minds its own business is a monstrosity , now a-duys : come again, cousiu. We thought nothing wrong in saying what we did in regard to the Charner Thomas matter, as the most blatant Tillman incu and the strongest I auti-Tillmau men all agreed that the Govsr. nor did right, llow Gov. Tillman could do right at all, in the eyes of some people, is ' rather a mystery to us. ? If the writer of that article will take the ; time and trouble to inform the public as to the "merit of the case" (for he says wo know nothing ab ut it) he will do a favor to r the people ut this Suite, generally ; and we , will Mksinw I'i'" ?!.? i?o will Irv tn Ji? iho who mtud their own business."

O.'i Ktply to Citisea- I 7a fht KtHtnr af ikr Timr* : 1 dislike te get into a newspaper contro- f versy, but must ask space for the following : I la last week's Timbs some one, under the I nom iU plume of "Ciiisea" has blindly I J suppose from the want of mental capecq^o 1 do better, and perhaps puffed up bj bmag I filled with tbe praises of some tinkling || bol, become so conceited as to think that ] "C. M. 0." has done the present Council aa | injustice by the sfa'ement ef facte, and A some criticisms which hare hergffr^w?tgfc. d published concerning tbe town Marfhal. # Such blind felly needs no consideration J at tbe hands of any person, but when J "Citizen" resorts ta falsehoods to make aa I impression upou the public mind, then be j is due enough consideration to be appriaed J of the fact. J in Sunday s issue of the om?e and Urrmvillc Newt I made some references aa te the dissatisfaction erpressed by many people regarding tbe election of the present Marshal. 1 mentioned it as an item of news, knowing full well that the Council, as a public body ? of officials, were liable anil open to criticisms. There was complaint, and from live business men, and prominent citizens, and not "a few old fogies" as "Citizen" calls them. I referred to it in a respectful way and ne person cetiM take offense at what waa writ-^ ten. $ 1 am convinced that it was the sentiment of two-thirds of the people of the town that the election of thepicsent Marshal over his competitors was an injustice to those honest men who have been citizens of our town for many years aud taxpayers, and 1 that they should have received more conrT'terntton than a man who omy-fmp, u, street tax, and has nothing at stake, save his duty and salary, when either ot the other applicants were fully up to him in this respect. "Citizen" says "that ho is satisfied that the youthful correspondent did not write the art cles referred to with his owu volition, but that he was ttsel as the moutl^^ _ i\..? ?i.i >> l>iuv;v tl U ivn vtva . In reply to thi?, his only charge agaifl^ me, I will say that I wrote tho articles referred to of my own volition, nnd that no man suggested or dictated anything te me. I "Citizen's" statcmcut that 1 was used as a mouth-piece of any set of men is a barefaced falsehood, and 1 defy him to prove his change, which is a rctlec ion en my integrity. ^ ^ To Citizen," who ever he may be, 1 will say, take the charge you make against me to yourself of being a "mouth-piece of some set of people," and in the future do not be such nn ignoramus as to be led blindly by conceit into telling falsehoods for any who haven't the manhood to speak for themselves.

This unreliable correspondent says I charged him with not being able to write the article he did, that is one of /<i.t "infamous falsehoods," and shows that he laoka sense to understand what he reads. 1 atu free to admit lie can and does, as Mr. Outz, of the World, said, "shoots off hi* uiouth," when he heirs one or two men express ah opinion, as the opinion of all the people of the town. When lie says "twothirds of tho people are dissatisfied "at Mr, Hose's selection," he states a "barefaced with, that the present Council intends to break of their unlawful and nefarious pra<v? uces. i uiu not ucny mis wuy auu ?niruva. ful correspondent the right 10 criticis**^ ||l0 action of the Council, but when he st\ndi in tlio shadow of ono building ftr i(j j,6W8 fivomen say anything, aud charges ,he wholo town with being of the same opinion, I do think it but right to oxpv ,e falsehood*, though they come through ouo wjl0 ij recognized as a Munchausen or an Annnnias.
