SIMPSON CoCNTY.-Speaking of Simpson county,

The planters of the county are very busy put
ting IN their crops, and appear very cheerful and
contented. Many of them are largely in debt, but
if let alone for year or two, most of them will

people.
THINK OF IT We heard something that occurred
on the streets the other day. Gaping the climax
for the sublimely ridiculous. Several freedwomen
dressed in the latest agones of ia ashton, drew up
in their carriages before some of our principal
stores, and called the clerks to bring out certain
goods for their inspection. Of course the clerks
were highly gratifed by the distinguished conde-
scenson, and entertained the idea of giving their
fair visitors a complimentary salute on the spot;
butrotten eggs being rather scarce in the market
the token of respect was deferred until a more
convenient season.-[C Columbus Index.
