It contains a well-written and interesting diary prepared by onr townsman private W. J. Davidson, a review of Sherman's sketches of the operations of the Army of Tennessee, the soldiers' war-bag containing interesting sketches and anecdotes, an official report of a light made by Col. Stamcs' command, besides various readable reminiscences of the early history of this country. The editor, Dr.

E. L. Drake, has striven-earnestly to make an interesting number, and has succeeded. JJy his permission, we hope to copy some of the sketches into the Observer. His magazine mer its a substantial encouragement, and we hope will receive it.

Through the courtesy of Mr. George Asquith, the efficient snpcrinttndectjwe passed through the Woolen Mills a few days ago. A new furnace, requiring 12,000 brick, has been built, a new drug house erected, machinery rearranged and enlarged, and the capacity of the Mills greatly iucrcased. Work will soon be resumed under mora encouraging auspices than ever; and this cheerful outlook is attributable in no 6mall degree to the sound judgment, untiring industry and harmonious working of Mr. Asquith, the superintendent, and CapL R.

G. Cross, the business manager. Any enterprise would succeed with such men to look after its interest. gr Mr. Ed.

Burton, who resides a few miles from town, met with a serious accident on Monday last. He fell from a wheat wagon while passing the scales near tho depot, and his head striking the or wheel tire, it is. not certain which his left car was cut or torn off, smooth with the head I He was moved to the Square, where his wound was treated. He fell immediately in front of a wheel, and if the team bad not been promptly stopped the wagon with its load of 1,700 pounds would have passed over his body. Whisky was the cause of the accident.

Some uneasiness is expressed for the safety of the growing wheat; A pest has appeared lately supposed to be lice, and as it is new in this region, we arc left to coniecture as to the result. It is earnestly hoped that the injury, if any, will not be serious. 15 Mr. James II. Woods on Monday showed us some insects that are infesting his wheat.

The vermiu arc about the size of large lice, have wings like flic. and seem to move witn some energy. W'hcthcr they will do much harm remains to be seen. Horse and Jack Bills. The season is here and the printing has begun.

He has faithfully discharged the duties of his office, and has never prostituted it for the benefit of any party or "ring," hut has used it solely for the good of the coun try.

fiZr Dr. John B. McFerran preached in the Cumberland Church last Sunday to an audi ence that tilled the buildinsr. His text was the 3d and 4tb verses of the 1st chapter of 1st Peter. Resurrection and regeneration were the theme of his discourse, and he defended and illustrated them in a style and with an ability peculiar to himself.

Asa theologian he has few equals. Xo one, we arc very sure, can Jisteh to him without profit. Mr. A. L.

Anderson dropped in a few days ago for a friendly chat. He says that his subscription to a Lincoln county paper began in 1842. In 1850 he transferred it to the Observer, where it remains, and each year, as a rule, he has paid in advance, as now. He is one of the honored "old Mr. William W.

Form Walt, aged about 60 years, tljou in this piaco last Wednesday, after a long illness, and was buried by the Masons. He was noted for his kindliness of disposition, for his prompt skid efficient attention in the sick- room, and for his charity for the faults of others. 2 During the month of March we filled twenty-seven or ders for job printing, being an average of about one per day. Samples were retained, and we would be glad to show them to persons needing printing. The list includes letter and note heads, envelopes, business, visiting' and postal cards, tickets, dodgers, stock bills, etc etc Mr.

The new Rocky Mountain Tourist, just from the Press, is in deed an artntic gem. In poiut of engravings printing and descriptive it is beyond all question the handsomest publication of the character ever issued in the United States. There in this work no less than sixteen of Thomns Moran's exquisite drawings, and among them hi? famous reproduc tion of the Mount of the Holy Cross. Of Moran's other match less drawings nre those of Grand, Glen, Marble, Knab aud Boulder Canons, Twins Lakes, Teocalli, etc, Joseph Beard is represented by characteristic hunting sketches, Bisbing by several exceedingly attractive mountain sketches, Lancelot by spirited drawings of of the remarkable rock sculpture on White River, and Henry Wor-rall by ful'-page viewt at Pass and Wagon WheI Gap, as well as a large number of other very finely executed sketches in different portions of the western country. The engravings are for the most part large, the full quarto pages of the Tourist enabling the showing to the finest advantage of plates seven by ten inches The book compri es sixty-four pages, exclusive of the cover, and printed as it is upon supersizd and calendered paper of tha richest finish, the effect throughout is superb.

While a very model of typographical beauty, the Touriat is none the less practicd in it range of iofcrmition, time) distances, and stage fares, hotel and livery rates being noted with uniform accuracy and in eo easy and pleasing a manner as to entirely relieve the work of everything approaching the tedious detail of the' average guidebook. Containing no advertisements of whatever character, the new Rocky Mountain Tourist is fit companion to Picturesque America in any. gentleman's library.

Only two rains during the month. The last one was yesterday, and it caused general rejoicing. All nature is clothed in her beautiful spring robe. Planting is very nearly, if not quite all, done. There is a prospect of abundant fruit; especially of peaches the principal fruit of this section.

Young preached to a crowded house at theMcth-odist'ehnrch on Sunday night. It was a splendid discourse. The following interest- ing and well-written composi tion is the production of a young lady student, only 14 years of age, of the FlintvilJe school: A Description of Flint-villo. Flintville is a small village situated in Lincoln county, at the head of Flint river, on the Winchester and Alabama railroad- about 14 miles from Fay-etteville. It has about 40 houses and 160' inhabitants.

There is one dry-goods store, one saloon, and one blacksmith 6hop, and joining it is a family grocery kept by tho funny old man, one wagon shop, one-carpenter's shop, and one government distillery, one cooper's shop, one grist mill sujjerintcnded by a jolly miller, one saw mill. There is one boarding-honsc, two churches, Methodist and Baptist; over the Mpthodist, the Independent Order of Odd-Fellows have their hall. We have a very neat school-house. There are two physicians, one dentist and three ministers. Flintville is a very pleasant place to live; the land is not very productive, but still tro have very fine vegetables.

The soil is well suited for orchards, and the grape does well. Though we cannot boast of rich land, yet we can of good water and an abundance of it too, and people from the Limestone countries and even from the city of Fayetteville arc glad to come here during the summer months to drink the pure cool freestone water that flows from a beautiful spring. We always give them a cordial welcome and try to make their stay pleasant. THE CRISIS. What think too would be the result if the should stop spinning around the sun? Were jou erer near a largo and intricate machine when one of its wheels became clogged or broken near enough to hear the grating, jarring clash, the suuden, deafening crash? Astronomers assure us that precise! similar effects, onlj on an inconceiTabljr grander scale, would bo produced if our earth -one of the wheels in the universe-machine should sudden! cease its revolutions.

In other words, there would be a general clash and crash of satellites, planets, and systems. What wc term financial crises are due to similar causes. One of the wheels in the finance-machine becomes clogged, perhaps shattered. The terrible Wall-street "crash" which follows is communicated to erer part of the financial mechanism of the country. But analogies do not stop here.

There is that other mechanism, the most intricate of all sometimes called art organism becauso it generates iU own forccs the huir.ai machine. When one of its members fails to perform its office, the wholo HTstam is thrown into disorder. Members before considered unassailable, break down under the unnatural pnssure. The shock comes, and utter prostration is the result Reparation can only be effected by the restoration of the impaired parta and the readjustment of its levers, the physical forces. There is one part of the machine more liallo to disorder than any other, the liver, the great balance-whoel of the machine.

The liver being the great depurating or blood-cleansing organ of the system, set it at work and the foul corruptions which gender in the blood, and rot out, as it wero, the machinery of life, are gradually from the system. For this purpose Dr. Pierce's GolJen Medical Discovery used daily, and Dr. Pierce's PKasant Purgative Pellet1), taken in very small doses, are preeminently the articles needed. They cure every kind of humor from tho worst scrofula to the common pimple, blotch, or eruption.

Great eating ulcers kindly heal under their mighty curative influence. Virulent blood poisons that lurk in the system are by them robbed of their terrors, and by their persevering and somewhat protracted use the moFt tainted systems may be completely renovated and built up anew. Enlarged glands, tumors and swellings dwindle away and disappear under the influence of these great resolvents. Bishop McTyeire did not preach at the Methodist Church in this place last Wednesday. The announcement was made I hat he had, because tho appointment was published that ho would, and as wc had gone to press before the hour of preaching," a correction could not be made.
