Our readers must not fall into the error
of supposing that we'put all the good
reading matter on the outside of our paper.
This week will be found on the
outside a most pleasant account by Capt.
Dawson of his visit to Due West. In
liis own graceful, felicitous style, Capt.
jj. tons now ne enjoyed the hospitality
of the people of our "Athens.*' And of
h:s impression the kind, warm-hearted
people and their manners and customs
made on him.
-.Theve will also he found an unusual]}'
interesting letter from Leipsic. Germany,
written by our tak'nted young townsman,
Mr. \V. H. Parker, dr. This is one
of the newsiest and plensantest letters
we have ever read.
So it will pay to read the outside of
the M ksuknuku.
The Due West Female College.
We hope that those who have daughters
to educate will give hood to the advertisument
of the Due West Female
College. There are few institutions of
learning in the South better equipped
ihan this for the education of girls. A
corps of competent and accomplished
professors in all the branches of instruction,
gives guarantee of the faithful
work that is being done there. At the

1 action brought the i?cntlemar of the house
to her room, armed with his navy, prepared
for action. Being shown the object
of her terror, he iired away, and one '
would have supposed that half of the
geese in the neighborhood had come I
there to disrobe, from the way the
feathers flew, ho having shot one of his '
wife's pillows to pieces that was in a |
