Hon. Jefferson Davis delivered an ad
dress at the Christian County fair last
Friday.
Miss Jennie G rider, of Bowling
Green, Ivy., is visiting her sister Mrs.
John Chapeze, of this city.
While you are visiting the fair, it
would lie a good time to call at this of
fice and leave your name for a copy of
thy Herald.
Correspondents ought to write on
one side of the paper only and write
plain. It docs not make any differ
ence whether they use pen and ink or
pencil.
Hon. II. D. McIIcnry and lady,
and thuir niece, Miss Jennie Eskridge,

Mr. M. B. Tiiford, Local Editor of
the Grayson County Herall, is in at

F. W. Griffin, formerly of this
county but now of Elizabethtown, took
the premium on beets at the fair yes

inches long.
Dentistry.
Dr. George E. Stowers, one of the
bat dentists of Southern Kentucky,
is in town, stopping at the Hartford
House. He is prepared to do any
kind of dental work, and those tla-ir-ing
his services tdiould call on him
without delay, as he will remain only
a short time.
Mr. A. L. Morton has a field of scv
end acres of corn near town that yield
ed eighty-two bushels to the acre this
season. Considering the six weeks of
incessant rain in July and August, who
can beat it?
We this week add another corres
pondent to our list. He writes about
Kentucky and the ways and style of
of her people very graphically.
We have now also a regular Louis
ville corrc-iondent, who spices up the
news from our metropolis very nicely.
It is our intention to keep adding to
the list until we have a good corres
pondent from every point of interest
in this section of the country.
Since the suspension of the daily.thc
I'aductili Wcdlj ll'ndd came to us last

little episode. He remarked that if be
diJ, it should be styled the "Lost Slip

He spent the balance of the fair in
getting sand out of his eves.
We invite your attention to the new
advertisement of John P. Tracy it
Son. They have employed us to blow
for them, and we arc good hands at
the lniMiios, and they have found out
that our b'owing pays them well. The
cut is an exact representation of our-
self, except that it makes us appear too
corpulent. The only objection we have
to the advertisement being in the pa
per is that we arc an unmarried man,
and as we present such a handsome
appearance in the cut, wc fear that the
heart of many fair ones will lluttcr
and go pit-a-pat when they ce it, and
keep annoying us with love sonnets and
little bi'kl ifof-c.
Mrs. L. J. Lyon, who has Iccn ab
sent for several months, returned home
Jack Foreman, who re.-idis in the
upper part of town, brought to this of
fice last Thursday, a curio.-ity in the
way.of an ear of corn. Five separate
and distinct cars, all growing in the
same shuck. Jack isn't a Granger,
but if he was, what would have been
the yield?
Our efficient Sheriff, Thos. J. Smith,
will have an office open at the Fair
Grounds this week, where he will be
pleased to have those who owe taxes
to call and settle. The 1st of October
is past, and he has not collected
enough to pay the county debts. He
will be compelled to levy on the prop
erty of all those who do not pay at
once.
Sew Iturber Shop.
Charley Anderson, a professional
barber of Owcnsboro, is now carrying
on a shop one door above the "Crow
House," where he will remain during
the fair. He has the assistance of two
ood barbers, and those who want a
nice, clean shave, or a genteel hair
cut should give him a call.
Colonel I. K. Xall.
Col. I. B. Nail, I$uiucss Manager
of the Fanners' Homj Journal, pub
lished in the city of Louisville, arrived
in this city Monday evening, and paid
his respects to this office. Col. Nail
is a gentleman of high culture, and a
sociable, whole-souled fellow, and his
indomitable energy will make the
Journal a success. Call again, Colonel.
Mr. W. II. M6orc, of Hartford,
raised a stalk of corn this year in a
garden lot rented from the editpr of
this paper, which was fourteen feet
high, and had two large cars of corn
on it, one of them fifteen inches long,
and had twenty rows of grains, the
other was eleven inches long, and had
eighteen rows of grain-!. The lowest
ear was over eight feet from the
round.
.llnsic at tho Fair.
The Elizabethtown brass band, under
the leadership of Prof. Bowden, of
Jeffersonville, Intl., is fumi-diing mu
sic for our fair. This is one of the
leading bands of Kentucky, and
Elizabethtown should be proud of her
musical talent. Each and every mem
ber seems to bo a perfect gentleman,
and bv their excellent music, they
have been employed by other associa
tions this season, and have appropria
ted their proccod to buying new in
strument's, and they now sport the
nicest set of burin we k'low of, which
they use with corre.'tnei? and great
skill. Thanks, "zntleai:!!, for your
sweet music yesterday morning.
The Fr.uir-fort Veo.nni produces a
forked stalk of pop corn as a remarka
ble freak of nature, unheard of hereto
foreauiong the cliffs of Franklin count-.
Such phenomena as forked stalks,
double and triple cars of corn, mam
moth pumpkins and colossal quadra,
peds are becoming quite common in
this latitude. It was only a few weeks
since we noticed tho production of a
forked stalk of corn of the large yellow-
variety none of your iliminutivegrass-
es of the pop-corn kind. e arc
grieved that the Itvmau should 1ms so
far behind in its collection of vegetablo
curiosities.
A Good 1,'iidor.staiulliipr.
There is a negro hoy, aged 10 years,
living in this immediate vicinity, with
the nio-it enormous feet you ever heard

failed to find a pair within two numbers

As it is necessary for the ends of
justice and the safety of the communi
ty at large that we should have a new
jaii, instead of the present dilapidated
and insecure disgrace to the count',
and as it is probable the proposition of
Mr. Bennett, the contractor who has
just finished the jail at Calhoon, will
bo favorably considered, wc append
the following paragraphs clipped from
an article iu the McLean County
ProgrctK
McLean county can now boast of
having as good a Courthouse and Jail
us any of her neighboring sister couii'
tics, and at a cost far below most of
them. The original cost of thoc
buildings were about S30.000 while
those of Union county for iustancc,ure
aid to have cost $123,000, over four
times as much.
The new jail ordered built by the
McLean County Court last Spring, the
construction ot which was let to Mr.
Ivlgar IJennctt, ot lirecktiirulgc coun
ty, has been completed for some time
past ami on Monday last was accepted
y said Court. Mr. Bennett, the
builder, has fullilled his contract in the
very spirit and letter of its meaning,
iiid all who have seen the jail unite i:i
saying that it is at once one ot tne
most conveniently arranged and secure
structures of the kind thev have ever
seen.
The lock anil dam across Iiougl
Creek, between here and the mouth of
the creek, has been abandoned for
some time, and amounts now to an al
most entire obstruction to navigation.
Last winter a drift formed there that
took a hundred men about two weeks
to tear out. If that dam is not torn
out now, while the creek is low, a
drift will form there as soon as the
water rises, and it will cost more to
cut it out and keep it open, than all
the saw-logs, hoop-noles, staves and
lumber to be run out this winter will
be worth, and next summer it will lc
so sickly around, that it will be almost
impossible to live within five miles of
it. Now we suggest that a day be sat
and every man iu the whole country
donate one day's labor towards tearing
it out. It can be done iu one dav if
the men will go early and work when
they get there. We suggest Monday,
the 25th day of October, I S?.7), us the
day, and nominate J. L. Collins as the
man to head the undertaking. Wcwill
be there, or send a hand. We hope to
hear a favorable response to this call
or suggestion.

Mr. Jo. B. Bennett, living three
miles north-west of Hartford, brought
us a fine specimen of corn this week.
An acre of ground that has been in cul
tivation since adate beforeMr. Bennett
can remember, and he is now sixty-nine
years old, has yielded one hundred
bushels this year. The corn was plant
ed in April, and was covered a Ifitletoo
leep, and did not conic up well. In
May the rows were furrowed and the
land again planted iu corn. During
the summer a considerable amount of
the com was destroyed by a storm; but,
notwithstanding all these disadvanta
ges, the yield is fully one hundred
bushels.
