The Taylor Reunion.
After consultation among' those more
immediately interested, it has been deci
ded to hold the Reunion of the Taylor
Family at Beaver Dam, on the 9th day of
Sept., 1S75. A large number will attend
from other Slates, and this'time and place
will best suit all interested. Mr. H. D.
Taylor will read a history of this time
honored family.and as the time is fast ap
proaching when the first settlers and their
children will have gone to that bourne
whence no traveler returns, all -who wish
to hear the early history of Ohio county
from the lips of the few remaining survi
vors who were participants in the scenes,
will do well to attend. It will undoubted
ly be the largest gathering ever held in
the county.

cal issues of the day. He is one of the
beet-posted political speakers in Ken
tucky, and our citizens, one and all,
should avail themselves of the opportuni
ty to hear him.
The Rambler.
This is the title of a new paper, just
started at Fiemingsburg, Ky., by C. C.
White & Co. It is a seven-column folio,
well printed, and, judging from the initial
number, which is before us, will be a live
and sprightly addition to the press of the
State. Politically, it is devoted to the
Granger interests.
Free Bnrbccnc.
There will be a grand free barbecue at
Barnctt's Creek Church, on next Satur
day, the 17th instant, given by the
Grangers of this county. Public address
es will be delivered by Hon. E. D.
Walker and Rev. Mr. Dadisman. The
candidates for Representative are also
expected to be present and indulge in
some public talk. Let's all go, and have
a big lime of it.
In our perambulations around town
this week, we dropped into L. J. Lyon's
new crocery store. He occupies one of
the best stands in town. He has now,
and keeps on hand, a full line of all
kinds of groceries. His success here has
been wonderful, having commenced four
years ago on a capital of less than $100,
and it is attributable to his energy and
fair dealing with the people.
Xcw GoodaX New Good!!
E. Small has just returned with the
largest importation of summer goods ev
er brought to this market. The newest
goods, the best goods, the most fashion
able goods, the cheapest goods, can be
found at E Small's:
Our friend F. P. Morgan has just re
turned from a trip to Warren and Butler
counties, and reports crops as splendid in
those counties. But thinks they have
been damaged recently by too much rain.

Mr. W. II'. Newcomb, living five miles
north of this place brought us two bunches
of May apples, which grew in his wood's
pasture. One bunch contains six, and
the other five apples, all growing on
one stem. This is something we have
never seen or heard of before. Wonder
if Craddock ever saw anything of the
kind?

ERPWM SLOPES.
W. H. Brown, who gave himself up to
Justice Cain, was under no bond, and Fri
day, the trial'day. he boarded the train at
this place for Spring Lick, the place
where the trial was to have been, but on
seeing Deputy Sheriff A. J. Layman
taking Barbara Wooten down for evi
dence against him, he never got off the
train, but went on below for parts un
known. The evidence of Wooten would
have convicted him, for she says she
would have sworn that he was the man
who raised the window and solicited her
to make her escape. She further says
there were more than Brown concerned
in the affair, but refuses to tell who they
were unless she is brought on oath.
disappearance of a rovxa GIRL.
We omitted to say last week that on
Thursday .night, the 1st instant, Emma
Gary, daughter of Marcus Gary, living
near this place, left her father's house,
since when she has never been heard of.
A young man had given her ah obscene
book, and her father found the same in
her possession, and we arc told said he
intended to indict the young man, and
the girl has run off to keep from appear
ing as a witness against him. She is but
fourteen, and the sentiment of the com
munity at large is that he induced her to
leave. ' J. T.N.
FROM SULPHUR SPRINGS.
SuLTOUK Springs, Kt July 11th,
Editor Herald: Having seen no
communication from this place for some
time, I thought to-day, whilst it is rain
ing, I would give you a few items, and
risk it with the "lightning-like'' mailboy,
believing that if he starts in time he will
deliver it sometime this summer.
Patter! patter 1 still comes the rain,
almost without ceasing since yesterday
morning; not gently, but in mad gushing
bowers, as if determined to drown or
wash away the surface of the earth, and
leave nothing but a desolate waste in its
wake.
The rains that fell on and about the 20th
ult., did untold damage to crops along the
creek bank. In this vicinity it is esti
mated that two or three hundred acres
are ruined by being washed or drowned.
Ed and Virgil Renfrow lost fifty acres,
W. L. Ambrose thirty, and your corres
pondent twenty acres.
Indeed, the past rainy weather has
wrought sad havoc with many farmers
along the creek bank. Jim Capp says a
man up above here has been down Rough
Creek looking for two acres of tobacco
that got away one night during a freshet.
lie having forgotten to make it fast. The
oldest residents say that so much rain in
the summer season has not been known
for about twenty-four years.
Wc will not attempt to give a report of
the barbecues up here, as we did not at
tend, and your local was on hand (as we
understand) ready to pic up euch ilems
as were interesting. Some ofour citizens
regret that you did not speak, as was
thought, and beg thatat some future time
you will favor them.
Accept our kindest regards and best
wishes for yourself and excellent wife,
and may you live long and be happy.

OUR SPRING LICK LETTER.
Spring Lick, Kr. July 12.
"It never rains but it pours,'' is a max-
ra which has been truly and amply veri
fied in this section for the past few days.
The consequence is great damage is done
to wheat and oats, and it is generally re
marked that corn too is retarded consid
erably in its growth.

A TARTf AND BEAUTIFUL LADIES.
We are credibly informed that the
young men ofour town propose giving
party on next Friday night in the new
store house of Rowe & Bro., and in the
event they do so, we feel assured it will
be a success owing to the fact that our
town, though small, has quite a number
of the most beautiful and intelligent
ladies. They are also exceedingly grace
ful in "tripping the light fantastic," and
understand to perfection how to play the
agieeble on occasions of this kind.
PERSONAL MENTION.
Mr. T. L. Starling is visiting our town,
and rumor says the day is not far dis
tant when he shall take unto himself
better-half and, need I say, she is one of
Spring Lick's fairest daughters?
A CANDIDATE FOR POLICE JUDGE.
Ferdinand Morgan, Esq., of vour town,
stopped in our town en route for home.
He tells us he is a prospective candidate
for the police judge's office. His quali
ficationsare unquestionable, and we know
whereof we speak, when we sav, if he is
elected to the office, he will discharge the
duties thereof, to the entire satisfaction
of all.
BROWN ABSCONDS.
W. H. Brown, Esq., whose trial was
set for last Friday, at this place, did ap
pear on the day of trial, but departed on
the same morning for parts unknown
We understand that the evidence that
would have been adduced on trial was
such as to convict him cf the charges
preferred. Barbara Wooten, the "spoiled
dove, was taken from the Leitchfield jail
and brought down to testify against him,
A
LETTER FROM BEAVER DAM.
Beaver Dam, Ky., July 13.
The intense heat of last week, together
with the unusual amount of Granger,
Democratic and Republican excitement,
kept our village pretty well heated.
TUB PETS OF ME PEOPLE.
I never knew before how dear the aspU
rants for Legislative honors were to the
people.
now Tnrr cess and discuss.
The honest farmers, the lawyers and
doctors, and the "middle men" of all av
ocations of life, were all represented in the
street discussions. They lay their coats
and hats off, roll up their sleeves, and in
trying to convince each other of the supe
rior claims of each candidate, get consid
erably warmed up, all their mouths go
off at the same time, and, after an hour's
discussion, wind us with a good old fash
ioned quarrel.
A NEIGHBOR IN TROUBLE.
We" have a neighbor who is in great
troubfev He says he has been changing
parties all his life, having invariably
joined the wrong cue. He concluded last
year he would'join the Democracy. He
thought they were the nearest right, but
found, to his utter astonishment, that
his parly beat their nominee Jive hundred
in our own county. He now, like the
Wandering Jew, goes from 'place to place
seeking consolation but findeth none.
He all through the day and at the lonely
hour of midnight, cau be pathetically
heard exclaiming, "My party has forsa
ken me; I am politically lost forever;
where, Oh! where am 1?" Peace be to
thy troubled waters, dear friend; patiently
bide their time, and ere long thy long
sought party will be found.
ALL ABOUT THE BARBECUE.
Well, I'll tell you all about the barbe
cue. We had one last Saturday, but it
was rather a damp one. It is a conceded
fact, that when Jim Daniel has a barbe
cue, it always rains. He has never yet
failed to bring a copiouns shower some
time during his festival gathering. It
commenced raining early in the morning,
and contined nearly all day; but Jim, be
ing prepared for- every emergency, con
veyed the abundant supply of provisions
to our recently erected tobacco factory,
and spread before the hungry crowd the
fat of the land, of which they did partake,
until full to their uttermost. The older
persons then formed themselves into
groups and talked of the old fashioned
barbecues they used to have, and of the
happy hours of their youth. The blush
ing damsels of "sweet sixteen," with
their devoted ones by their sides, grace
fully sauntered around the new barn
floor, pledging, no doubt, lasting fidelity,
and dreaming of the blissful days in store
for them. A short while after diancr the
music commenced, and tlie-performare on
the "light fantastic toe" did most hearti
ly enjoy themselves for awhile. After
the dancing had ceased, Mr. R. P. Hock
er, in a few very appropriate remarks,
announced himself as the people's candi
date to represent them in the next Legis
lature. The audience was much disap
pointed by Mr. Hill s absence. The in
clemency of the weather prevented many
from attending the barbecue and speaking,
but the large number present remained
till late in the day, and went home feeling
better for a day s enjoyment.
THE TAYLOR BARBECUE.
In response to the call for all the Tay
lors, their relatives and friends, to meet
at Sulphur Springs, August 14, for a re
union, I am requested to sav that all
from this community will, if possible, be
in attendance, and I furthermore know
that, if all the relatives attend, only one
or two persons will be left at home.
Will some one take the count on that day,
and tell us how many Taylors there are
in the countv?
TOO MUCH RAIN.
We have had more rain than necessa
ry for crops, during the past ten days.
Oats are beginning to rust, and tobacco
is "frenching"' some little; the former is
being cut, and it is not thought either
will be seriously injured. Coru has not
had the attention it should have had, but
the probabilities are for a large yield.
SOME IMPERTINENCE.
We notice the editor of the Herald
passing through our town frequently, cn
his way up the road; and judging from
the happy smile on his face when he re
turns, there must be a woman in the
case. Juno.

Editors Herald: Seeing there has
been no communication to the Herald
from this vicinity, I use the most favora
ble time to send you a few items, which
may be of interest to some of your read
ers, especially to the Patrons of Husband
ry. For their gratification, 1 can "un
hesitatingly say that most of the people
down here belong to the Grange, and are
proud of it.
And well they may be proud of it, for
they are Grangers in the strictest sense of
the term. They have not caught at the
shadow and missed the substance. They
do not prefer an outward show to an in
ternal reality. They do not propose to
rise to wealth and fame on the downfall
of their fellowraen. They have a higher
and nobler purpose than this. It is to
benefit the human race by looking well
to the interests of the farmer, and they
are receiving reward for their labors, as
"The harvest truly is plentiful, and the
laborers are not few.''
THE CROP PROSPECTS.
iMoiwunsianaing tne neavy rains, a
large crop of wheat has been secured in
time to grind the sickle for the best oats
crops we have had for a number of years.
Corn also looks well
Tobacco promises
much, and if the season should be season
able from this until it is housed, it will
comply with its promises as well as ena
ble the people to comply with theirs made
during the money panic.
TnE WEST roiNT ncNic.
But there is another item which seems
highly worthy of notice, and that is an
account of the picnic at West Point
sclioolhouse, on the 3rd inst. This was
made for the school at that place, which
closed with the day's entertainment Al
though there was not snch a multitude
as no man could number, yet there were
people enough to make the whole affair a
grand success. The programme stood:
first, a game of croquet; second, refresh
ments; and then a drive. The dinner
was what a dinner should be pleasant,
wholesome, and free, and it was a fair
specimen or the production of Granger
skill and industry. But the fairest and
loveliest was a boque.t and cake, which
now adorns the writer's shelf as a present
from Mrs. Ophelia Lindley. Aside from
my natural fondness for cake, I have
reasons to be proud of this. As a token
of regard, it is highly m appreciated.
Though a lover of flowers in general, I
find new pleasure in looking at them.
They may soon fade, but the remem
brance of the kind donor will form a gar
land of evergreens around the glad heart
of the recipient. Yours, 4c, Willie.

COUNTRY NEWSPAPERS.
Taylortown, Ky., July 8.
Editor Herald: Perhaps some people
will say, when they read this caption,
"Well, now, 1 wonder if H. B. T. has
not got off on a subject that lie had better
have left the editor to attend to?" Row,
I wish such people to follow me with pa
tience for a little while, and perhaps I
may tell them a few facts that the editor
would not All thinking pecple know
that publishing a paper is a very arduous
undertaking, and especially n country
newspaper. Just consider the trouble
and expense of "setting up." and the
great trouble of securing subscribers.
This ia the greatest trouble of all, for
people's prejudices have to be combatted,
their penuriousness must be overcome,
and hundreds'of copies have to be distrib
uted free, in order for the people to see
what kind of a paper claims their patron
age, ihese are a few of the troubles
that are incident to newspaper publishing.
True a city paper, backed by plenty of
capital, does not experience these troubles
n so great a degree, for from the plenti-
fulnees of their capital they can pu'
down the subscription price so that it is
easily reached by almost every one. Not
so the county paper. The men who gen
erally establish a county paper have not
the favor of mammon to such a degree as
to enable them to flood the country with
flaming prospectuses and sample copies.
besides lowering the subscription price.
Now, I think when a man becomes con
vinced that the county paper is of suf
ficient merit to claim his patronaga, he
ought not to delay, but subscribe immedi
ately. Do not try to borrow the paper,
for by thus doing you may be taking the
necessaries of life from the editor to grai
ny your own curiosity. Do not say you
are not able to take the paper, for any
person that has a willing mind and good
health can take the paper even though
he has to work for SO cents a day and
board himself. Therefore, do not hesi
tate, but let us all take The Herald,
and have the best county paper in the
State.
II. B. T.
The Governor of Georgia said at the
Atlanta Fourth of July celebration:
shall not remark upon the unhappy di
visions that have been existing between
the people of the Union. It would not
be proper to do it at this occasion. But
let me say this to you: intelligent men
everywhere arc beginning to see signs o'
breaking day, so far as we arc concerned,
And let me say another thing, so far as
the great masses of the people of the
North are concerned, thsre is really but
very little, if any, difference between them
nnd the Southern people. Applause.
I am glad to know that a disposition is in
both sections to have the people meet, to
have them mix together, talk together
and compare their views. And let me
tell you that when the people meet and
shake hands, the soulless demagogues
and the tricky politicians had better get
out of the way. AppIause.J For it is
to the devices of this pestiferous class
that the long estrangement and separa
tion of the people of the South is due. '.
am happy to know that such occasions
as this tend to heal the breach, for here
s presented a platform that all can stand
upon, it we agree upon nothing else, we
agree in the truths set forth in the Decla
ration of Independence. Standing upon
the platform we can meet as friends
whatever our difference may be upon
other questions in the past.
