Small Notea.


The Hardy Wing, which in politics is as
its title denotes, in copying our remarks
on the small note law. also administers a
warning to its readers to push from them
the trash, aud says, "with no small cur
rency at all, our condition would not be
much worse than it is at present" And
such seems to be the sentiment of ma
jority of the masses. The country people
Of this county, Wings and Democrats,
seem disposed to give the law fair test.
Very few will take shinplasters under any
consideration. A very intelligent Wing
informed us the other day. that it was al
most impossible to pass small note in
his portion Of the county, and that he had
determined to refuse to take them himself.
Indeed it is very evident that the masses
have gotten sick Of the worthless stuff, and
are wiling TO do anything to get rid OF it.
1t Is seldom that we receive the money for
a subscription now from 4 country SUBJ
scriber. that we 90 not get gold dollars,
SILVER, or Virginia money. We think this
omens ayorably.
