LEE AND GoRDoN's MILLS BURNED.
We learn that the extensive Touring
mills below Crawfish Springs, known
as Lee and Gordon's, had been en-
tirely destroyed by fire on Thursday
night. The amount Of loss is not yet
accurately estimated, but we have no
doubt it was quite heavy. The de-
struction of these well-known mills
will be q serious loss to the inhabi-
tants of the section in which they
were situated, rs they were the only
mills for the supply of several Coun-
ties. AS q historical point, they were
widely known from their prominence

A AKNooK-DowNER. The following,
from the New Albany Commercial, we
recommend to the corner loafers, who,
as ladies' pass by, on rainy or windy
days, indulge in harsh criticisms and
ribald comments:
"He was standing on the corner,
in the place where loafers meet; and
he watched the dressy dnmsels, as
they waded DER the street. From his
mouth came inuendoes, and his eyes
were opened wide, as, ON tip-toe, they
came dancing DER the muddy, sloppy
tide; when lady and her daughter,
stepping carefully along, closely yelled
from street inspection, heard his
shiny, 'venomed tongue. Then the
little wells were lifted, and with shame
his head he hung, for his mother and
his sister thus had struck the speaker
dumb"

marriages in this community than usual
The past spring and present summer have

rally follow marriage. Thirteen fine boys
were born to their respective parents, and
it was in contemplation by one Of the hap
py fathers to assemble them together at
his mansion and have a competitive exhibit
ton, the finest boy to carry off the prize
So matters stood until Mr.. F.'s boy was
born few days since. 1t weighed ten
pounds down weight and naturally enough
was expected by its happy father to beat
all competitors But alas for human
hopes, aud especially such hopes as are
founded upon the uncertain contingencies
of babyhood To the CONSERVATION OF ey-

now seventy years old, finds himself bless

CHEAPER TEA.-Ilow the little China
cups will rattle and clatter in their saucers
at tidings Of such pleasant import. Rus
STA is not going to get ali the choicest
drawings away from the rest of the
world after this The China tea market
report says, has just opened at prices one
third lower than the prices at the opening
of last year; and that means that the vol
uble tongues Of professed tca-drnkers are
henceiorth to run with one-third more vol
utility. The news has had lis effect in
London, which is the great tea market OF
the modern world, since the tea merchants
there, who have been holding on for a rise
like our own butter men and grain spccu-
lators, have received adyices from their
principals in China, to unload as quick a.
they conveniently can. Now let the tea
pots all get up their tempests together
The spoons should make merry music in
cup aud saucer. Such a stir ought to be
started as never arose at tea-tables before.
Have all the old ladies in the land been
promptly apprised of this falling off in the
price Of tea? 1t is of more importance to
them than their rations of Maccabov, Va
nilla bean and all together We may have
tea parties now thirty-three per cent.
cheaper than they have cost US in the
pleasant past.
