See three important non-resident notices in this paper. The sweet odo. of the blooming fruit trees ia pleasant to the olfacto ries. A slight thunder shower Wednes day morning was followed by sun shine. Alderman Taylor has had his resi dence, on West Miutr, Btreet, hand somely paiuted. Mr. Geo. Cade ia agent for au ex cellent fertilizer, which our farmers will do well to try. White frosts were visible here last Saturday and Tuesday mornings. We believe no damage resulted. Oui good friend M. L. Martin brought us a fine club of subscribers ast Saturday, for which ho has our thanks. There will be sacramental service at the Methodist church to-morrow, to which all the members are urged to come. A substantial brick pavement U to be laid in front of the Mathodist church. John Coulter very liberally donates the work. Henry Manuel has an excellent new barber in his shop, and, with three chairs running, is prepared to wait on his customers promptly. An epidemic of new subscribers and renewals has prevailed in thisolBce since our last issue. We have still room for a few more. Come right along. Laura Wright, colored, for disturb' ing public worship and being disorder ly generally, was fined $15 by Mayor Hale on Thursday. Not having.tlie money, she was locked up. We hear some mechanics occasion ally complaining ot work being dull, but we notice it is a hard matter to get carpenters to do a little repairing. They all 3eem to be kept busy. The "Charter and Laws of the Town of Milau" have just been issued from thi3 office in pamphlet form Parties desiring to be posted can get a copy by calling on his honor, Mayor Hale. The Nashville Journal of Medicine ami Surgery, for March, edited by Dr. C. S. Bizgs, has reached us. It seems to us to be an excellent publi cation, and well worthy the support of the profession. 1' raser s degree is being prepared by the Knights of Honor, with the view of giving a public eutertainmen soon. It is one of the richest treats of the season. Let all bo prepared to enjoy themselves. The streets and sidewalks of Milan are in better condition than for many years thanks to an extra good board of Mayor and Aldermen. They ar thorough business men, and have the interest of the towu at heart. A. Jordiyi, Esq., has bought E. N. Stone's interest in the dry goods stock of Jordan & Stone, and will "go it alone" in future. Esquire Jordan is welland'favorably known and will con tinue to do a big business at the old stand. Very enjoyable sociables were given at the resiiences of Mr. D. B. Clark on Friday night of last week and Dr. A. B. Conley on Monday night. The young people were well pleased with both and stayed at each until late hours. riaut & Frenz are doing a very considerable business with people in neighboring towns. They have re. cently shipped several carpets to Humboldt, selling them at wholesale rates to individuals. Good goods and cheap goods are bound to sell. Prospero Lodge K. P. is preparing to celebrate the anniversary of its or ganization, May 27, with a picnic. Jim Bullington, who was confined in the calaboose on a crmrge of leing drunk and disorderly, was released by some unauthorized person last Tues day. It seems somebody had. key to fit the lock. New locks have since been provided. Eli Stone and Dave Clark, two of the best and most popular men in town, have bought Mrs. Fawcett's stock of groceries, and are now run ning the business. They make a strong team, and we predict for them a big business. See their local else where in this paper. Mrs. Guion last Tuesday sent us a branch from a peach tree which was full of white blooms. The peach is a free stone variety, but we do not know the name. Who ever saw white peach blooms before? She also sent us some branches of the Craw ford which were just as full as they could well be. If. nothing happens, she will have a fine crop. The frost has not yet hurt them. The Temperance Cause. On last Wednesday night a number of the friends of trte cause met at Ma sonic Hall and organized a prohibi tion club by electing Geo. Cade chair man and J. W. Coulter secretary.'

Committee, Our City Fathers At the meetins of the board of Mayor and Aldermen last Monday night the Mayor was instructed to is sue deeds to parties who had bought and paid for lots in Oakwood Ccme tery and had lost or had their deeds burned, or who had paid for lots and failed to get deeds provided such parties make affidavit or give satis factory evidence that they had paid for said lots.

RAILWAY, RACKET. .. , Clarksville is proud of her new passenger depot, now ready for use. Double daily passenger trains again running on the C, St. L. & N. O. road. The break in the C-, St. L. & N. O. road has been repaired, and trains are now running regularly. The "accommodation . train pulled out a drawhead when it started from here Thursday evening, causing a short detention. A guard passed here Thursday with ten negro convicts from Somerville, taking them to the penitentiary. We judge there will be less stealing jn aud around that town uow.' . , , . Some forty or fifty French and German immigrants laid over here Saturday and Sunday last on account of the washouts in the roads south. They were bound for Louisiana and Texas. Hatchie river got up a boom last week and damaged the L. & N. road pretty badly, washing out much of the track. Trains were abandoned for a day or two, but are now running on time. Fayettville Express: The narrow guage railroad will bet completed, pos sibly, in two weeks, but through trains will not be put on until May Both engines need ' repairing befoie being put to regular duty. The Alamo Sentinel says: "The completion of the Tennessee Central is about the only chance for Alamo to ever have n railroad." Then join us, neighbor, in working up a boom in its favor. Get up statistics of what would probably be shipped over it in your county and send them to Presi dent Wise A. Cooper at Trenton. Mr. C. P. Huntingdon, the railroad tycoon, accompanied by T. W. Pierce of Boston, President of the "3unset' road in Texas, passed here in a specia car last Saturday. One or two of our Tennessee Central directors took oc casion to call his attention to that en terprise while he was waiting here. He intimated that he would look into the matter if brought properly before him. Let our people go to work and make a good showing. Food for Thought. A locomotive engineer was watching the unloading of a lot of plows here the other day, when he sententiously remarked: "This is the d dest coun try to buy plows, and afterwards the d dest country to buy corn that I ever saw." It does look a little strange, when it is well known that we have the finest timber in the world and as productive soil as any in the country. We need more and better fanners, as well as more mechanics. A farmer who will not raise corn enough to feed his family and his stock ought to be ashamed of himself. Broke Out lu a New Place. Eli Stone and Dave Clark have bought Mrs, Fawcett's stock of gro ceries.and will run the business under the firm name of Stone & Clark. Mr Stotie is now in Memphis buying a new stock ot staple and fancy Gro ceries. They will keep a full and well selected assortment of everything needed in the grocery line, besides Hardware, Plows and other Agricul tural Implements. They will also handle all kinds of Country Produce Their friends may rely on getting the best goods in their line at reasonable prices. They will run regularly a free delivery wagon for the accommo dation of their city customers. Give them a call and you certainly will be well pleased.

' He also has many friends over the county who will work hard for his election. We believe he is honest and compe tent to fill the office acceptably. A Parting Word. A great many of o ur subscribers have renewed during the past week and many new names have been ad ded to our list. A few whom we have been unable to see will get the paper this week, with a cross mark opposite their names. If we do not hear from them by next week, we shall "take it for granted that they wish their papers discontinued, and will cut them off. Thus far we have had only one to stop, and we think he will renew shortly.
