Mr. .&ior: send you a rambling eom mnication from Centerville, which is locat d midway between Panola and Fulton. The inhabitants are industrious, and hos pitable people, posssing in a high degree he social, and relig'ous habits, characteris i of any community blessed with gospel privileges. Rev. C. C.-Pishburne is con ucting arevivallmeeting there of consider able interest and magnitude.

Apart from rambling items along the way from Centerville, Panola still has some new developments, Mr. Thos. C. Coulette has re ceived his new stock of goods, and is sell. in, as cheap as the cheapest. Mr. *. P. Holiaday, our popular Supervisor of PRegiS tratiun, is laying the foundation for his neu dwelling. This will be the third new build ing erected at Panola this season, whiel I shows signs of progress with our people. Miss Eddie Epperson has returned from her srmamer vacation and resumed hei school, under favorable auspices.

A Call. There goes the bell ! A visitor, I guess, And I'm afright and have'at time to dress. H'm! Mrs. Gossip, from across the way: What put it in her head to call to-day? To see what she can see: that's all, no doubt; That woman's nothing but a gad-about. I hate her, with her supercilious airs : That horrid girl is bringing her up stairs 'Tis Mrs. Gossip, I declare. Why, this Is quite a pleasure, I am sure. (a kiss.) So kind of you to call; 'tis quite a treat ; Let me remove your shawl; pray, take a seat. We're all upset this morning, it is true, But we can abwarys find a seat for you. Prav don't arnoogize-ihere is no need, I'mvery glaa you called, I am. indeed.. A Texas Case. About two-years ago I was afilicted with one of the worst cases of blood poisoning ever known in Texas. I am a colored man and porter of the U ni on passenger depot at this point. Af ter taking prescriptions from the best physiciams here and at Dallas, which brought me no relief, I was given up to die. I had spent over $200 in doc tor's bills. Finally" I concluded to vis it Hot Springs, Ark., and on reaching Tearkana a doctor recommended me to try Swift's Speciffic, assuring me it would benefit me more than the Hot Springs. I returned to Cisco and bought a supply of S. S. S. from Messrs. Oreech & Co. Although the poison had. produced great ulcers, eating great holes in my my back and ebest, large enough to place a silver half dollar, and had removed all the hair off my head, yet I begun to im prove in a week's time, and the soras began to heal and were entirely gone inside of Eight weeks. After having taken only four large bottles of Swift's Specific I was pronounced entirely cured, and am as sound as a new dol lar. Remember it was only eight weeks before that I had been given up to die by the best physicians in Texas. Being 'completely restored in that short time is convincing evidence of the curative power of this wonderful medicine. I have recommended it to others who have since been cured of this horrible disease, and I heartily endorse it and commend it to those who are suffering in like manner. There is no room for doubt as to a cure. It is certain. I WILL JONES, Cisco, Texas, July 13, 1885. Swtft's Specific is entirely vegetable. Treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases mailed free.
