FOR THE JOURNAL.
:. What we have to Say.

The present Town Council is one of the
best we have ever had. It has given the
town one of the most efficient policies that
was ever known here; the said police have
made many arrests; and the town is remark
able for its good order and quietness. The
present Town Council have given us new
Truck Compa ny; it has improved the ap
pearance of the streets in great many quar-
ters; it has taken efficient measures for the
sanitary condition of the town; it has called
in Ito limited extent the town currency,
that eye.sore to merchants aud countrymen.
In fact, the present Town Council has done
a great deal for our town-.but there are two
things they have neglected-tos build new
steps to the back entrance of the Town Hall,
and to put new rope on the Market Bell.

The Survivors, Celebration.

We would respectfully ask the c0nsldera-
t;on of those of our community who feel an
interest Sin the sacrifices of the past, IN Ia
yor of the effort now being mado to celebrate
the anniversary of the Survivors Association
with the yearly address to be delivered on
the goth of December next, by the orator
chosen for the occasion, Capt. W. i. DePass,
and st the same time an entertainment under
the patronage of our ladies, the proceeds OF
which are to be devoted to keeping up a
scholarship for pupil sent from this Dis
trict to the Confederate Home School IN
Charleston.
And though we believe and feel that few,
very few, indeed we know no true hearted
Southern woman would attribute selfish mo-
.tives to the Association in asking for their
help, vet some explanation might not be
amiss to prevent the possibility of a mistake
It has been usual on the occasion OF the
yearly speech to have a handsome supper
for the members where they enjoyed them
selves With a. certain degree Of dignifed re
Taxation. =
But as we feel it our duty to establish
scholarship for the education of the son OF Z
deceased Confederate soldier at cost o.
two hundred and fifty dollars, it is pro
posed to give up the supper which
inures entirely to the benefit ofthe members
and appropriate the subscription to the sup
per towards getting up ap entertainment IL
which all might join, and we ask the help o.
our women who feel with us, and We know
they will give it.

u TRIUMPHANT FOR TWENTY YEARS
More than twenty years ago the Mustang
Liniment made its debut in the West. Its
cures of the various external diseases OF
horses and cattle, astonished the planters
and farmers of the Mississippi, and Ohio
Valleys, and demand. for it sprung up
which necessitated its manufacture on an ex-
tensive scale. Soon the discovery was made
that it was grand specific for rheumatism,
gout, neuralgia, eara:he, toothache, and
other external ailments of mankind. Then
it was tried as healing, pain killing appli-
cation, in cases of outward injury, such as
cuts, buses, burns, spasms, &C., and was
found equally serviceable. The fame Of the
new remedy for some of the most painful ills
that afaict mankind and the lower animals,
spread rapidly, and Mustang Liniment soon
took rank in every State and Territory of the
Union as STANDARD CURE. Il ~ rH'

aforesaid, contracted society hasenjoyed for
MANY months. They draw vivid and hair
raising pictures of ths individual receiving
a Mrs. Caudle's lecture. They pity the unr
fortunate partner of his bosom, and beam
with such sympathetic glances uPra her,
whenever she is SO unfortunate as to appear
upon the deeply agitated scene. They re-
call similar instances wherein the most
lamentable consequences have ensued, and
strongly conjecture that the present most
interesting affair will befollowcdb by uuspeak-
able upheavals and tremendous revolutions.
What does the comet say to all this! She
may be unconscious of the effects she is pro-
ducing, but this is hardly supposable.
More probably she is enjoying it. 1t is a
one-sided game. she knows who her admlrer
is and what relation he bears to others, and she
cannot be hurt. He may be, but she will not
permit herself to be caught In any such
game, where all the chances are against her
No grand consunfmation can ensue.
Well, let us drop the curtain. The house
is fast emptying. The lights are burning
low. The sensations of the hour are heeting
Tomorrow is closing upon us with its shift
ing scenes, the stern realities Of life do no
brook delay.
