Et- Nothing gives us greater pleasure
than to chronicle the advancement OF our
business men. We like 10 step Into their

re- We understand that Mr.. JONES is
rather sensitive to our expression Of opin-
ion Of him in last weeks paper. Now we
said what we did with the kindest mo.
tives towards him. JONES has consider
able capacity for business, is an energet.
ic, industrious, go-aheaJ sort Of fellow
But he has got a crochet in his head that
he is destined for political life, ard is a
modern Demoslhenes, and this causes
him to become a source of modification
to his relatives, and an intolerable bore
to his party friends. He is always ready
10 furnish amusement for the people by
attempts at making speech, and is al
ways boring his party by eectoneering
for some Office. He goes into every con
yention sure of being nominated for some.
thing, and though he never has any
votes, he never ceases to talk about his
great influence, and is generally indu-
ced by tie opposition to bolt and lie
about the ticket. His self-sufficiency has
reall y made him an ntolerable nuisance,
and it has been with a view to relieve
The people and the party Of his presump
tuous efforts oratorically and politically
that we said what we did. Kind advice
has no effect upon him. and we thought
the opposite course might tind sensi-
tive spot in him. If it will only have a
tendency to correct his conceited idea of
his power: oratorically, and turn his eff
forts wholly to business for which he has
capacity. we are sure we will have done
himself, his friends. and the public a
service. Our article had this Intention
no other.

iGN- Our rasroas must know that we
caa't ptslish our paper during these
hard times without pay. They must know
fthst they owe us. They must know that
we badly need what they owe us, and
now that harvest is over and threshing
done, we should think the suggestion
would come to them that we ought to be
ipasd. We have enough owing us to pay
swhat ace owe, and enable us to conduct
our business with more ease to ourself.
and more profit to our subscribers. A
great many Of the delinquents have prom
ised to pay us after harvest. We are
waiting for iullillment of the promise
If they can't get money, bring something

Wheat, Corn. We want settlement in
something. Will our Subscribers please

EH The Teachers Institute held il
this place last week was quite largely at
tended. some 80 or 40 teachers bein 9
present. The interest manifested wa.
much more marked than at previous
meetings, and the benefit derived wa;
undoubtedly very great. Mr.. PARsoSs
the teacher, has his whole soul in the
work, has made teaching his business
and study for long years. has reduced in
struction to science, and that there show.
are general principles to guide in every
department Of teaching. Tho benefit de
rived from his instruction is freely &C
knowledged by all the teachers. as the
benefit Of the Institute in general is cor
daily confessed. The people ought TO
insist upon the attendance of all their
teachers.

Progress.

Progress.
Eg- Evidently the motto of our friend
WILEY, like that of the old Empire State,
is " Excelsior" Onward, onward, up
ward, upward, he is constantly advancing
Three years ago, he occupied little
seven-by-nine shop down near the bridge
Shortly we find him taking much lar
ger room farlherup the street, and in
creasing his stock proportionately. But
soon he finds himself " cabined, cribbed
confined" and again he makes another
advance up the street. locating himself
in fine, commodious room next door to
VILLAGES Drug Store, quarters which
he has taken the past week. He has now
a handsome store, with room to accommo-
date his increasing business. And large
as the room is, he has il filled with a
stock Of the choicest Boots and Shoes, OF
all kinds. The secret Of JoHN's success
is, that lie attends closely TO his bust
ness, and sells the best Of work at the
very lowest prices at which good goods
can at any time be sold. He knows
what good article in his line is, and
the people know that when he recon !.
mends anything they can depend upon
its worth. This confidence is daily in.
creasins, and the consequence is that his
business is constantly growing. He buys
for cash, sells for cash, and always gives
a man the worth Of his money. If our
county readers want Boots and Shoes
that can always be depended upon, let
them so to WILEY.

EE \ lady. few days since, went
into Mr.. BowLEY's store to do some
trading. and after purchasin. what she
wanted, wentout. She shortly returned,
saying that she had lost her pocket. book
and thought she had left it there. Our
young friend, CnEsLEY. whom we have
long known, and know to be one of the
most upright and Conscientious young
men in he community, had waited on
her. and she finally accused him of ia
king the purse. This he courteously,
but emphalically, denied, but of course
had no way Of proving. The lady. how
ever, was positive, and did not scruple
TO charge him with it publicly. and il
became considerably noised around,
much to our young friends modification.
1t finally reached the ears of ore Of our
milliners, who instantly recollecled that
such lady had left such purse, on
that day. on her counter, which she still,
held subject to her application. This
completely exonerates our young friend,
but as tho, story had been induslriously
spread around, we think it proper to
make this public notice of the facts. 1t
shows how careful we should be in
charging crime or wrong upon others.
