New FIRM-Wo understand that John
Kennedy, Sen, Robert II. Junkin and John
Kennedy, Jr., haYe formed copartnership
under the firm of Kennedy, Junkin d Co,
and purchased the stock of goods in Marks
mill store, where the new firm will continue
the business. The stock is next thing to new,
and with a liberal supply from the city of the
latest styles, constitutes a depot from which
the most fastidious can be pleased, in price
as we'll as goods. This arrangement will in
nowise interfere with the old business stand
Of John Kennedy, where he will continue to
dispense Hams, Shoulders, Fitch, Bacon,
Beef, and other indispensables necessary for
the good of the public on the most liberal
scale. for the usual ''quid pro quo" Marks
counting room for the transaction of that
gentleman's business, will for the present be
continued at the storestand.
KILLING DEER.-A fine doe we are told was
killed on Saturday last on the turnpike be-
tween Reedsyile and Milroy, by two men
who saw it coming through a corn field;
watching their time they disabled it with
stones, and then cut its throat. These beau
tiful animals have hard time Of it at this
season of the year. being driven from one
haunt to another by men and dogs, some Of
whom are worrying the poor animals night
and day. The sport is no doubt exciting to
those who follow it, but there are too many
engaged in it for the quantity of game. The
best hunt that could be got up at this time
would be for party, large or small, to rem
devious in the neighborhood of Locke's Mills,
and thence proceed to scour Triester's valley
and adjacent parts, in which neighborhood a
''varmint' believed to be panther, has been
making It's home. It's capture would be some
thing to talk about, and if panther, render
a material service to the deer, many of whom
would be ruthlessly destroyed during the
winter by this prowler; but if not, other game
can ALWAYS he scared m there. and if the
party would not capture bear or two and
few deer. it would probably be their own
fault.
