In Trouble.
White nigger~ wOrshippers and Intelligent
gentlemen Of African scent" are having some
sore troubles with the lively corpse of the
Democratic party, over which they lately
pronounced so many pathetic funeral ora
tions. 1t is great pity that so much fine
obituary talk has been wasted on a subject
that won't down at their bidding.
Job Printing.
We again call the attention of citizens o
this county to our facilities for job printing.

uffice we are enabled 60 do work of all kinds,

An Omission.
By an oversight, the advertisement of Mr..
Chas. Harding's Meat Market was left out Of
our last issue. Mr.. H has not omitted 10
keep up his shop, but is now taking especial
pains to crafty the tastes of his customers by
keeping constantly on hand the best meats OF
all kinds. Try them.

New Goods.
The most of our merchants are now receiv
ing new goods. The places where this fact
appears the most conspcuously,is at Bunnell
& Bannatyne's-at Mott's-at Sherman &
Lathrop's, and at D. Billings.
o. S. Mills & Co. have also just added to
their stock large and full assortment O.
Hardware, Cutlery, &c. This, too, is the
place to get your Cooking and Parlor Stoves
Tinware, &c.
Benzine.
There being no licensed houses in this
county, since the late prohibitory law, for the
sale of sprituous and intoxicating liquors, o.
course, when people want to get up flow of
"spirlts," they have to resort to some other
article. Quite number of chaps on Saturday
evening last had, from appearances, been ex
perimenting with berzine or some other forty
rod fluid. Whatever the stuff used, the ex-
pertinent was entirely successful. To make
plain matter palmer, we might add that
several persons on the evening mentioned, got
most gaLorious drunk.
The New Jail.
The brick " Work of the new Jail is now fin
ished and the stone work also, except the
csp-stones or coping of the yard wall. The
roof, which is TO be of slate, will be put on
during the coming week. Mr.. Place, the
contractor, has pushed forward the work with
commendable energy, and expects to have 1t
entirely finished before the close of the year
When finished, the building will be quite oi
namental, aud, it is to be hoped, useful tho
the necessity for il may be matter Of regret.
Cot too High.
Yost of the high-toned niger equality or
gan at this pl?ce, as we from the first antici
pated he might do, struck so high key note
that in as s cendng the scale he got so lofty
that even the "refned and intelligent" RAIDS
here, now fail to see it-or hear it either. One
of the " new and enlightened views" which he
promised to give the stupid Democrats in
these parts is now being given. 1t is dis
solving view" in which y appears with
coat tail pointing towards the north pole and
his nose to the sOuth-n the direction of DIR.
P. Johns lean pantry-with a flea, which an
instrument Of the strongest magnfying pow
ers, would fail to make larger. sticking IN one
ear, and the bewildering cry of his hungry
creditors ringing in the other.
Let it Shine.
DR.. j. W. Rhoads has fitted up our kero-
sene lamps with new burners and filled them
with newly invented burning fluid which be
sells at forty five cents per gallon. 1t is
claimed that this new preparation is nom
explosive-thst it emits no smoke or unpleas
ant odor-that it is more economical, and
gives better and clearer light than the oil
now in general use.
Our limited trial of it. enables us to say
that we have not yet been blown Cp by It,
that our lamp -chimneys have not yet been
smoked up by it-that no very stinky stink
comes from it-that our lamps when trimmed
and burning give a pure, steady and
brilliant lght-and that the expense to us
thus far, has been-light
Those wishing further information on this
subject will call at the Dr.'s drug store,
which, in the evening, will be found more or
less illuminated with the fluid which has
caused our ink to flow so freely.
The Weather.
The weather for a month past has been de-
