i A beautiful poem, by "Hallah," Ii crowed out this week. It will appear In our next. Next week number of our aubcrlbera who are In arrears will not receive the Home Journal. Thii Is fair warning. A celebrated doctor says that corsets and thin shoes are killing our women 'Tis true too true.

The religious revival at the C. P.Curch In our town resulted In the conversion of ixty-two persons. This must be deeply gratifying to all who feel an Interest in the spiritual welfare or the human race and the good name and morals of our town. An exchange says if a man dreams the devil Is alter bim, It Is a sure sign he has not naid for his newspaper. We are afraid some of our subscribers have been afflicted with dreams of near approaches on tlia nui't of his satanlc majesty.

We are sorry for it, but can't help it. Winter Is now upon us In earnest, and fires are in demand.

It is situated near the Win chester Alabama Railroad, lies level, is a river bottom, yet free from overflow. We really believe the advertiser is correct In say ing that it is one of tho best farms In Lincoln county. Death or Gkkkn Uannah.

Verily yellow fever is a terrible disease. We have heard of another victim of its ravages at Columbus. Tex. Green Hannah a brother of our Tax Collector, Jne. G.

Hannah-left Inchester about one year since and to Columbus, Texas. We now learn that he died there ol yellow fever, just a few days before the death ot Wm. Petty elsewhere noticed. Juvenile Bubqlabt. We understand that four little negroes, aged, respectively, between ten and fifteen years, took advantage ot the storm last Sunday afternoon and broke into Mr.

A. Jourdan's Cenlec-tionery Store and stole sortie money, tome candy, some French harps, and then departed. On Monday morning they were arrested aud carried beiore E.qr. Herritt and Martin for trial, who found only two guilty, and bound them over, under a bond of twenty-live dellars each, which heavy bond they Anally made, and farther we hive not heard; except that 10.05 of the money stolen was recovered. About ten weeks since, (we believe It was) an old maid, Wiacbester, who still looks much younger than she knows ber-f elf to be, asked us, in peculiar manner, to give her a sweetheart.

We told her we would comply with her request, and we have tried to do so. We are still on the hunt, but meanwhile we commend to her notice the following Spanish proverb: "At eighteen marry your daughter to her superior; at twenty-one to her equal but at thirty to any body wbo will have her." Our fair friend is about 30, sr more, and we hope our promise may be more easily Ailed, if she will accept tho Spanish proverb. Death or Wm. D. Pettt.

A telegram from Columbus, Texas, informs us that Mr. Wm. D. Petty died, in that place, on the 14th instant, ol Yellow Fever. About one year since the deceaaed left Winchester for Texas, and we predicted for him a bright future.

We do not remember to hare known a young man ol more pleasant social qualities, or one of more genuine, high-toned wit. His mind was mora than ordinary, and, had he lived, be Would have made a most enviable character for himself. He was just twenty-one years and nlue months in age when he died. He was the son ol Mr. William Petty, of Fayettcvillc, who now in our town.

He was the grandson of our noble old citizen, Madison Porter. Last Monday we went through the Winchester cemetery. We were looking for a certain cow, and seeing a number of cow in the enclosure, wo went hither. Our cow was not there, and we think more ol her than ever. She did not want to dv se rrate the sacred ground.

But about fifteen other cows, snd twice a many hogs, were not so considerate. There they Were, rooting np and defiling the very mounds over which banian tears of grief have been shed. There were three places of ingress and egress, and cattle go In and out ai lib Hum. Verily, thought we, the pretended respect for ths dead Is the meanest ef all pretences. And who late blame for this neglect of our common bury lug-ground We blame no one we only sigh to think that it is such as full of hypocrisy as the wearing of black badge of mourning the heart rarely feels, Belab.

F.KATcM.-We heard two men, mem ucrs 01 iwuvrvni' urninjm-i ui uuu 1 cuiircn In Ijtinrrellng the other duy because they could not sgree to disagree upon a few llttk technicalities in the mat- tcrof religious faith. They were actually angry at one another, and each thought the other a fool and on the wrong roud to Heaven. We felt like breaking a bottle of wine not over their heads, oh no! and asking them to drink lor their temper'i sake and to drown their pungent feeling! so unbecoming the subject undcrdlscus slon. But we didn't, for we bethought ourself if strong drink, such as whiskey was raging, wine must be somewhat so a mocker at least, and ws made no proposition involving the terrible expense our compassion wus about to lead us into But we thought a deal thought how strange that grown-up people could not have different views upon matters of sal vatlon and yet be charitable to one nnoth er. We almost ventured to suggest that they conform themselves to the maxim "In essentials unity, in doubtful points liberty.

In all things charity." But we didn't. We ought to have done so, per haps, for the Good Book we used te love read in boyhood's halcyon days (origin al expression halcyon days.) and which we find more and more interesting the further we travel tombward, told us that peace-makers were blessed. We wanted to be a peace-maker, sinner though we were. But we trembled a little at the an daclty which would lead a sinner to step In between christians in order to preserve the peace. And we didn't.

We merely thought of the great truth taught by good old Wm. Pen that for (heir religious principles men arc responsible to alone. And If our two friends, who waxed so angry over their different views of what the Bible means and does not mean, will reflect a little, as they have done, no doubt, already, they will think as we thought, nor feel offended at what we have written. They must have been read ing that portion of Holy Writ which speaks ot Christ coming as a sword and not to send peace. Hard Times.

This cry Is heard all over our land, we surmise, it Is heard herein Winchester ami Franklin county, and therefore we suppose it is heard from Maine to California, which expression embraces a considerable area ef territory. Hard times! Well, we have heard the cry ever since we were old enough lo hear anything, but really it does seem, just now, that there Is some truth in the cry. Times ore hard that is, money is scarce and people are dubious of one another np on the score of credit. Those who have money begin to store It away In secret places, but they cannot hide it Irom that omniscient Eye which looks unfavorably upon all sorts of covetousness. Times are hard, and now is the epportu nity for "good-will toward men" and "brotherly kiudness" to make themselves known.

Now is the opportunity for sel Holiness to forget itself and let universal charity abound. Now is the time for all who owe money to pay at once, so that money may be kept in circulation. Thus It is that one dollar may pay a hundred dollars debt. Now is the time to not hoard vour mopcy, but loan it, or use it to relieve the needy, on the s-me prlnci pic that you would give bicud to the needy In a day of famine. But no'v is the time precisely when none of these thing will be done.

Bullishness is an ingrained thing of humanity just now it Is epidemic. If it would only kill its victims as the yellow fever or cholera does, then we should welcome it most heartily. Hard times! And yet every one who saysto is making them harder. Matrimonial. We wot of several mat rimonial alliances that will soon come off In and near Winchester, hut we shall keep pcrtectly quiet thereupon Sufficient unto the day is the pleasurt thereof.

Before alortnight we may tell you in the Home Journal some things we would not speak with tongue. "Ye who listen with cred ulity to the whisperings of fancy, and pursue with eagerness the phantoms of attend to what we predict. In fancy now we hear some infatuated inamorato laying to his inamorata in the langnage of Adrton to Irene "By all the happiness I have known by thy aide by all the rapture of which I have dreamed by that delicious heur which first gave the to my gase, when I watched the soft soul returning to thine eyes and lip by thy first blushing confession of love by cur first Ids, by our last farewell" by thy own dear presence now, I swear to te faithful to the last. And wilt thou not, my beautllut, be my own forever And she says Yes to such idle that of an idle lover, and then they do just like every body has done (luce Adam whispered to Eve in the Garden they get marrlid. And what of it! One would think, from the fuss made very frequently, that some thing wonderful had happened.

But ws know better. We know that love is the business of the idle, but the idleness ot the busy. Coal! Coal! I Hereafter coal will not be delivered un til paid for at the scales. No deviation from this rule, lor it is just as convenient to the purchaser, and far less trouuleto the undersigned. Nov.
