Nkw THING.-We neglected to no
ltice that a new cigar store has been
opened three doors south of the
Crook House. Messrs. Sheets & Co.,
the proprietors, propose carrying on
the manufacture of cigars and doing
a general wholesale trade in that lire.
Their room is well arranged for the
business and already begins to put on
appearance of large trade. They
are now employing some eight or
ten hands in the cigar manufacturing
department and soon intend doubling
their force. These gentlemen are
bound to do q good business and
make cigars that will sell and being
sold will give satisfaction. They
have bought the best OF stock for
manufacturing them and will use
none other. We hope they may sue
ceed.

SUlo1DE.-A man named NJ. Lyman
grover,who lived in McComb, cut his
throat On Monday night last, with q
razor. When discovered, he was in
an alley back of his house with the
razor in the cash, just above "Adam' S
apple" attempting to cut deeper
From appearances of blood marks, it
seems that he inflicted one or two
severe gashes on the left side Of his
throat in the privy and sfterwsrd went
ont and climbed the fence into the
alley and there attempted to finish the
horrible work. He died about tel
o clock. This man was in the habi,
of indulging in liquor, and shor
time before committing suicide, had
had delirum tremens, which left him
slightly insane. This insanity in
connection with liquor he had got
that day, nerved him to take his own
life. Horrible! horrible. horrible!
MURDIR.-An affray occurred on
Friday afternoon last, near Gilbos,
Putnam county, between two men
named respectively Hitchcock and
Spitznoggle, resulting in the death
of the latter.
The circumstances, as related to
US, were as follows: Hitchcock was
a renter on tbs farm of Spitznoggle,
and having been unable to procure
machine, had been backward in his
haying,' whereupon Spitznoggle, a
crusty, i'll natured man, called upon
him, threatening to turn him of the
place. As hard feelings had exist
ed between them for some time pre-
they soon became engaged
in a war of words. Hitchcock was
near the old man, cleaning
his gun preparatory to going hunting.
Soon Spitznoggle rising from his
chair, and taking hold of the back,
applied to Hitchcock some insultin &
epithets in violent manner, who, mad
dened by the1anguage, and supposing
that Spitzneggle was about to strike
him with the chair, threw the gun
around quickly, striking the muzzle
against the forehead of the unfortu-
nate man with such force as to crush
The skull, causing instant death.
Two soDs of the deceased were
present at the time, and witnessed
The entire scene. Hitchcock imme-
iiately informed the neighbors of the
and gave himself into GUS
.ody, and was released upon proper
Dail.

 There iz grate deal ov internal revenew in hog; thare ain't much more waste in them than there iz in an oyster.

 Hogs are good and quiet boarders; they alwuz eat what is set before them, and don't ask eny foolish questions.
 They kan awl rute we'll, hog that kant rute well, haz been made in vain.
 The hog can be larnt grate menny cun- ming things, such az histing the front gate off from the hinges, tipping over the swin barrels, and finding a hole in the fence tew git into cornfeld; but thare aint enny length to their memory, it iz awful hard work for them tew find the same hole to gil out at, espeshaly if yu are at all anxious they should.
 Hogs are very contrary, and seldom drive well the rame way yu are going; they drive most the other way, this haz never been ful- ly explained, but speaks volumes for the hog
