Rev. .T. C. Calhoun will begin a

successful nt securing very able assis-

redown to much good—to the honor
and glory ol our crusificd Savior.

The hoys got ‘‘rattled" last Friday
night during the discussson of Tariff
Reform at the Literary Society. The
present Tariff bill, (known as the
Mil Is Bill) is now settled, as tho Hon-
orable Judges so rendered tlieir deci-
sion.
In thia issuo is thn professional
c*rd of 8 A Michio, M. D., of Ford,
(better known as Wallace ) Ho re-
cently graduated at a Medical Col-
lego in Louisville, Ky., which pre-
pared him for his profession. He is
a skilled physician, and niorits a lib-
eral patronngo-
Mr. B. W. Rose, tho popular and
leading merchant, of Wills Point, ad-
dresses our many readers in a pleasing
manner this week. When he has a
good thing for the people he lets them
Know it. His large corps of polite
and courteous clerks ; and his elegant
and marnoth stock of goods, low
prices, etc., is the result of his enor-
mous and extensive business. When
you visit Wills Point, always call on
B. W. Rose.
Mrs. Mati'day Tucker, wife of Jerry
Tucker, and daughter of Uncle Till-
man Cox, (deceased) was killed by
lightening at her home near Martin’s
Mill, last Sunday morning. We learn
that she was kindling a tire in the
fire-place—the lightening coming
down the chimney, and thus putting
an end to her life. Several other
parties were in the house at the time ;
all of whom were shocked considera-
bly—hut none killed or'injured. We
oxtend our warmest sympathy to the
bereaved.
Wills Point—A severe wind and rain
storm struck this city about 9 o’clock
this morning, doing considerable
damage in blowing down awnings,
shade trees and unroofing gome build-
ings. A hack containing two young
ladies was blown over, but no one was
dangerously hurt. The direction of
the tornado was from tho southwest
towards the northeast. Some damage
to stocks of goods belonging to Thom-
son A McKinney, W. H. Edwards and
J. 8. Schwarts. All tho awning corn-
icea wera blown from the Jones Hall.
The Institute.
Tho fact that Judge Spinks und
Prof. 8. J. Lewis have repeatedly
tried to organizo a Teacher's Insti-
tute at Canton, and l avo utterly
tailod because teachers would not at-
tend, seems to prove to a certainty
tho standard of education in Van
Zandt county is not what it should
bo.
If tho doctors of car country wore
to refuse to attend their county and
state meetings • to conclude that
they woro not ablo to tako medical
journals, or buy medical hooks; and
decide that they It ivo no time to
study thoir profession, would wo not
put down such fraud and neglect
with might and main? But now
when a young teuchor who is hon-
estly and earnestly studying his pro-
fession, wtio believes that “teaching
is tho greatest art in all the world,”
comes to Canton to exclmngo his
ideas with his fellow teachers, ho
finds that not anolhor teacher in all
the county has responded to tho call.
Phis call was made in obodionco to
an intelligently framed school law.
At tho same time hundreds of youths
are passing away from opportuni-
ties of school life with intellect
blighted and dwirfed tor want of
skillful touching. Are wo worthy of
our calling? Shall wo force tho
Judge to compel us to do that which
wo should he so eager to do ? Now
in conclusion, follow-tcachors, I beg
you to uttond those meetings and as-
sist by giving u« your ideas and
methods. If you have so thorough-
ly studied your profession that tho
Institute will not benefit you, wo in-
sist all tho more that you attend for
our encourugemoot and instruction.
Fraternally yours,
S. K. Hallman.
