CORRESPONDENCE. SAYINGS AND DOINGS OF OUR NEIGHBORS BRIEFLY NARRATED. PETERSVILLE. We learn that the Red-man is done planting corn. Doctor Norton still practices medicine at Petersville. Farmers report that corn is coming up unusually well. Quite a number of persons of this township attended the funeral of Mrs. Childs who had many friends in this vicinity. George Moore, of your vicinity, favored our neighborhood one night last week with a serenade, chasing loses with Ids hounds. Horace Greeley once said that nothing succeeds like success. Our new school house is a complete success. It is builded on a rock. The ice cream and strawberry festival given by the Epworth League for the benefit of the church, Saturday night was a success, netting nearly §35. VFqxes have become so numerous along Cliffy that they are a great pest to farmers, carrying off chickens in the day time. Griff. G ulley and Jesse * Davis shot three last Friday while hunting squirrels. The schools of Clay township have all closed after a very successful term under the supervision of trustee, W. ti. Morrison. The only regret of the people of Clay township is that ha cannot, by law, be his own successor. The commencement exercises of Clay township schools were held in the new Petersville school house. The graduates were Misses Stella Fosteb, Daisy Hart and Maggie Redman. They all acquitted themselves with honor. We hear that the editor of the Hope News-Journal hfts selected a citizen of Clay township as associate editor; one who is acquainted with the facts and is writing reminiscence-; of the 'late unpleasantness,’ and waving the ‘bloody shirt’ ta create sympathy for the ‘lost cause.’ The citizens of Petersville and vicinity hold a mass'meetirjg one night last week for the purpose of taking steps toward securing the next World’s Fair for Petei-sville. The fact that Petersville never asked for anything bpt what she got seemed to encourage the meeting greatly'.

j of the bride’s parents Sunday feveni ng. Everybody joins in wishing them a happy and prosperous voyage through life. Beer drinking was indulged quite freely on the river banks Sunday and ended, as such disgraceful things usually do, in skinned noses and black eye. These parties should be severely dealt with. John Butler, telegraph operator here, has been promoted to that of operator at Columbus. This speaks well of our friend John, but his I promotion is merited by thebusi-i aess-like and honorable way in which I he lias conducted the office here. We bespeak a bright future for John and while we Kate to lose him from our midst, what will be our loss will be Columbus gain. Bert Whaley, of North Madison, will take charge of the office here.
