Eml?? ""' OUB CORRESPONDENTSJoceftville. r? July. 8? We bail a gotil shower of rain c'| yeaterdoy evening and today linds the crops wi in good condition and a pretty good season in tbe ground. The crop outlook is very hi good. The fruit crop is line and is getting 18 ripe. The failure of a fruit crop last yeur '* will cause the people to can and preserve P1 more fruit tbis year than usual so I hey can wi bridga over next year if the fruit fails. The third quarterly conference for Jonesville circuit was held at New Hope last w< Friday. Her. A. J. Cautbau P. 12. was pres- hi ent and presided. There was a good a'tend Wl ance of ofhcials nnd reports nil were satis- n1' fac'ory. Kcv. G. F.

The picnic was beautiful and ifi everybody seemed to enjoy the occasion. Our town has been noted for many years tel for peace tempcrcnce and goo t behavior bin ca last Sunday night the record was broken, to Mre. J. 11. Free about ten o'cl.ek went up ho atairs to her bed room to retire with her five of mall children and by chance she happened to go to a back window and h ok out, and wl there crouched upon ilie roof of the porch wl near the window was a man. Mrs Free screamed franttca ly which soon brought a wi crowd of men lo her door but tbe vilian wt conld no where be found. A ladder was u< found sitting acaiust the house, which lie ch null lAKen notu uio oaoK yartl ami placet at mi the porch tipoti which the ticml ascended nod deceuded. A large size bnre foot track co t the bottom of the IncMcr was a'l lliut coiuti so be discovered. Whether rjbbe'ry or a crim- ?i} nal a-sin It was his intention is not known, wl but it is very evident that it was one or the pr other. Another fact is equally evident lh that it' he had been caught lie would have tin been lynched, for there was a crowd of dc. termined tnen on hand to do the work. Mrs. ?'a Free is pruty euro that it was a colored cr man. st< Mr. Win. II. Bevill ha I n innlo that was pe sick last week and it vomited like a human.

Jll*. 9?tart of Inst week your corresindent was quite unwell, nod hasn't auttiBiilly recovered vet to atllict the readers itb a long and lucid letter this week. For the past ten days our section bus been essed with geutle showers aud vegetation growing nicely. Much of the old corn is id by, and cotton is waiting for its last owing. Vet there are a few farmers behind itb their crops, considerably. Wei k before last we were sorry to notice a correrpondenco from Corinth to the sekly {Oaffncg) Ltdger that a den of gamers were cmupiug on their nefarious dirty irk in the upper part of this county. Why e grand jurors so remiss in their duties calling tor the evideuoe to ferret out all ch detestihlo characters? And then, ain, why do correspondents trumpet such ports over the country aud through the ess and neglect to put these in posessiou ollicers of the law? To fail in this is to vc license to crime; thoso who ueglect to do eir own duty liavo the least right to comaiti at this. Perhaps the sense of the meeting held at lion ou the 1st was fully aud clearly set rth in the resolutions you published in nnectiou with the report of the same last :ok, yet we feel it our duty (although we e not in poluics and don't expect to be) say out word italic interest if peace anil oil will and we think goo J sense. A great deal has beeu said about the parent uu ot Hi- different political factious. We dont wont any factious. Holy writ I s us that a house divided agniust itself ' limit stand, this we ulhun applies as much .. oioiu ... umuu us in mi liiuiTiuuni nuuaeU. The history of the wor.il is our book refercooe. The time has cotno when freo intelligent tile men will be their own judges as to nat they want and what they don't want. They are e?eu now olamoriug for the best, isest and most trusty men to come for trd and help them to establish a const it uiu that will bca safe guard to them their ildreu and their children's children, for iiny generatious yet to coma. There is no particular reason why Uuion unly should not send a full dcicgatiou of -cabcd conservatives if they will only go ion the stump aud explain to the people lial wrong they wi I correct and what im- | uveiuetus they \\ill make in the new over e present constitution, provide 1 thcclmngcfl I'cl the approval of u majority of the voters. The snuic rule wi I be applied to the soiled refurmets. They loo, must stand the ucial test of olnuajler, ability and Tnoral innua before they can succeed with the oplo?mark that. ltev.
