Just a few years ago we had to go i several miles to reach a grist mill, < post cilice or even a school house. The ox curt was the chief vehicle for transportation going to meeting and the like, but now! llow things have changed A good well lixed and furnished school house has, at a recent meeting of the counSv Hoard of Kduca tion been laid oil into a district to itself with a set of men as trustees who are actively interested in educational allairs and will very i likely do much toward the advancement of education in their eotnmun- : ity. At a recent meeting of the Trustees and patrons at the Virgo school house, S. (i. Alford was appointed clerk of tne board. The other Trustees are 0. A . Causey and S. C. Hcv- < erly. They also decided to start the oi i imv;i I'll HU^USl I I 11 Willi J > V . AI ford a.s teacher, ho beinp unani- i inously elected by the patrons and trustees voting in general.

Farmers in this section are nearly done ploughing and they are rejoicing over their crops which are a ' great deal better than were expected. There is a vast difference in the ' corn crop now and six weeks ago. Hog cholera is taking its course ; in this section and,the report says it . is raying nearly all over the county. 1 We hope that it will not kill out all , the hogs. George Shelley of Pleasant View, ' was here on business last Friday. The Sunday School at Lake Swamp I is progressing well under the eOicient management of Mr. M. T. ' Floyd. ( The Rev.

D. W. Graham of Bex, visited j friends here last Sunday. A Fishermen have been doing a rushing business with the scaley tribe for the last two months, but it is very likely that they will be "hands otT" for awhile, from the \ fact that the recent rains have tilled i up the lakes. The dispensary views from dill'er- 1 out parts of the county are very in- H teresting. The people seem to be s desirous of voting the dispensary I down and I think they are not doing 1 themselves n.n v hsirm <>"?>? ? - .r Lho evil. Every correspondent who d lias anything to say in regard to the f iisponsary, does not write in its favor. There is no doubt that the do- h mg away with the dispensary will v oe the instigation of many a life be- 1 mg saved. Some of the wor,stdrunk- d irds are now working against the t lispensary and 1 think that if those who love to drink whiskey are going s Lo vote against it, that their efforts o should enthuse the moral men to a lielp them out. 1 say, down with it, v .Hid lot's strive for better times in the future. t ' 'Observer."
