minister, who takes: spiritual control Of.
the Baptist congregation of this place:
May his labors be all Of fruit. IS.

store room of Mr. q. l.. White. The
rascal had previously stolen his safe key,
and on the night named tried, by boring
the main entrance door, to enter and
make d haul. Tie attempt was made
aborsivc, however. r.by the thief becoming
alarmed. Subsequently, through fear Of
punishment, the safe key was returned.

: Monsieur Scholars new oven, is
most admirable and convenient contriv-
ance, and we are convinced, as will any
one else be, who examines it, that by its
aid he can bake to the desire Of all, and
give the utmost satisfaction. We have
had proof Of its excellent qualities, and
of Monsieur's genius in the culinary de-:
partment, and therefore cheerfully re-
commend him as being fully competent
to furnish anything called for with sat-
isfaction and despatch. No wedding or
other party is complete. without the as
sistance of Monsieur S, ...,:'..:is,--<%
Among the new cards of this issue
will be found one from Mr.. Geo. C.'Rob'
inson, of Augusta, Ga, with whom, we
are pleased to notice, is associated one Of
Newberry's old citizens, Major W. G.
Glenn. This combination of business
talent and experience is exercised in the
successful carrying on Of a general and
extensive Grocery and Commission busi-
ness; we recommend the house and the
gentlemen to the favorable notice OF plan
ters and others visiting the city Of Au-
gusta. The double advantage here pre-
SAINTS itself Of laying In choice supplies
'and meeting with an, old, friend and
clever ,fello1-Maj. Glenn. =: =:
DROVE Hoes.-A drove of. 100 fat
hogs were landed from the G. & G. cars
on Saturday evening last, and great was
the stir in consequence, not only among
Fthe,hogs,S ,Sbuearnong the boys. On Sun
day instead Of going to church, . large
number of persons went to'1the pens, a
few with the intention on the morrow to
buy, many merely to look and. wish. 1t
weuld be impossible TO depict in: a short
local paragraph the supreme delight which
sat on the countenances of those who we're
hungry for the advent Of this the first
drove. Those who had money aud in
tended tobay, realized heaviness Of heart
atthe prices asked, 10 cents, while those
who had no money and noapresent hope
ofbuying, thought the figures reasonable;
and4he hogs fine. s->--.....> ;, - - =
