Wool.-After long period of inactivity
in this staple, there is again an inquiry for
it at advanced prices. We are glad of it,
as a large. portion of last years clip is still
present indications we believe that the
staple will advance to price. averaging
about seventy cents per pound for Colum-
biana county wool, before the end of next
February; and if holders can obtain that
price, or something near it, we would ad-
wise them by all means to sell. Some
think it may go higher than the figures
indicated, and if so. so much the better !;
but we doubt it. tits the general opinion
of those conversant with such matters,
that it will not pay to hold over, and that
the true policy is to sell at the market
price, Whatever that may be.-BucEeye

DEATHS,

DmD-at Fayetteville, Tenn, on Saturday morn
ing 18th inst. at 4 O'Clock, Mrs. CAROLINE W. E.
McCORD-relic of S. H. AIcGoRD, Esq'r., of Fay
etteville, and mother Of the editors of this paper
The subject Of this brief memoir was born in
Greenvile District S. c., the 21st Of July, 1885,
and was therefore ffly-one years and nearly five
months old when she died. She was raised by Bah
list PARENTS but in early life became attached to
Methodist doctrines and usagos, and died eonsis-
tent and devoted member Of that Church-having
joined it as seeker at the age Of IT, and at the age
oils, after her father, J. w. HANsELL. had moved
to Lawrence county, Ala, made public profession
Of religion and connected herself permanently with
the Church. She lived consistent and devoted
Christian and adorned all the relations of life. In
her last illness she remarked that although she had
sometimes been unfaithful, she had never doubted
her conviction and conversion at the time alluded
to above. On her death bed she was unspeakably
happy in the love of God, and gave unmistakable
evidence that hers the religion that would do
to die with. It was the same that sustained and
comforted her Savior in His trials and persecution
and agones on the cross-it was the religion He pur
chased for her with His own life.
Her last darling wish that all Of her children
should be with her in the dying hour, gratfed,
aud her last words those of affection for and adj
monition to her husband and children She had
been a sufferer for many years, but never complain
ed. She never spoke harshly or unkindly to any
one, but always had a kind word for every ear.
She was strictly Methodist, but devoid of sec
tartan preudices, entertained the most kindly and
liberal feeling of love fer Christians Of all denomi-
nations. On Sunday the 10th inst.-the SD ann
versary of her marriage-her funeral was preached
at the Cumberland Church by Rev. NJ. NJ. Marshall
Of the Presby terian Church, who said that he had
known her well for upwards Of 20 years, and he was
prepared to say that he never knew more unselfsh
and truly Christian woman. \.

SHARP Practice OF MURDEREE.-Goorgc W.
Floyd was lodged in the Trinity county Jail last
winter, the charge Of numbering Chnaman.
One evening as the jailor opened the door he re-
ccived handful of fine tobacco plump in the
eyes, and while in this blinded condition, Floyd
made his escape. The last Intelligence in regard
to him is contained in the following, taken, from
the Hum5old (Neyada) Register:

a man came to ii ranch kept by two honest
Dutchmen, 30 miles east of Dun Glen. and repre-
senting himself to be in needy circumstances,

incarcerated for killing Chinaman; Of which
crime however, he claimed to be innocent
Finding that the bump of credulity Of one of
the partners-Hans-was largely developed, he
told him tale-an oyster of gold dust,
buried by certain tree, which was near GER
tain cabin in lonely gulch, near Weaverville;
the amount Of dust in the can being 81, 700
BY constant reference to his buried treasure he
worked the cupidity of Hans to such pitch that
he gave the fellow 500 in coin, two horses,
rife and pistol, and started him on his travels
to the Boise country--While Hans, for half the
treasure, journeyed to the lonely gulch. He
found the cabin and tree to be in the position
represented, but seeing some persons prospect
ing in the rayinc, he deferred the cxhuning pro-
cess till night her sable curtain spread; when,
rs the connected by wire to the tree,
he would then realize all hopes. Night came,
and pick and shovel in hand, the tree was reach
ed and soon the ground was torn up Tor IA long
distance around, but oyster can was found

from home, and not Il picayune IN his pocket
He sat down aud moralized and while giving
expression TO his feelings, in curses both loud
aal deep bewail;ng his hard lot and the unrcll-
ability of white men in general, he was APP
preached by the prospectors chad seen IN day
light, WHO, when notes were compared, he found
were perfect strangers to each other, and had
come from different localities. y closer COM
parison showed that the oyster can was their
:. objective point" Here solace to his
mind lie was satisfied that he not the only
fool living, and started for home next morning
with Il lighter heart. After a tedious tramp,
and sore footed, he arrived on the banks of the
