Earth's brightest flowers must
drOop and die, and though it rends
the heart to see them nipped in the
bud, yet a consolation is afforded in
the thought that they fade from
earth only to bloom in that Celes-
tial City above, where they shall
wave forever in lovliness and holt
ness and lure us TO that haven in
which they have found repose.

PickIes FirA year al.

Our friend, w. J. Ridgeway, OF
Elkton has laid us under obliga-
tions for a bottle of very fine pick
les and for the information given IN
the accompanying note, as follows:
Elkton, Tenn, July 10Th, 1872.
Editor PulGski Citizen.
I send you to day, by our clever
and accommodating hack driver,
Mr.. NJ. p. Ezell, one bottle of Gu
cumber pickles. The cucumbers
were grown in my garden, in the
year 1868, preserved In common
salt brine, and picked on July 18th
1872. This will show to you that it
is unnecessary to put up fresh grown
cucumbers every year for family
pickles. Yours respectfully,
W. j. RIDGEwAY.
P. S.-Cotton is phine.

Our indefatigable and ubiquitous
"Phiting Editor" sent us q huge
watermelon last week and our devil
a KISS. The melon was the first,
finest and latest of the season, and
our devil says the kiss was 'Iuxuri-

"Rah for Greeley and our John
Brown" We echo the sentiment
and add "Rah for the Phitin Ed
itor.'

An Amusing Chase.

On last Monday Town Constable
Wells arrested q man named Hill
hailing from the.rural districts, for
disordeIly conduct on the square,
He carried his prisoner before Esqr,
Jones, and while making some pre-
liminary arrangements for the trial
sufFeredhim to get out of sight. Hill
took advantage of this and took TO
his heels. He had cotton out OF
sight before the Town Marshal dis
covered his absence, and going in
the direction the prisoner had taken,
caught up with him just in time to
be too late in catching him before
he rode off on horse. An exciting
chase began, in which both Police
men Wells and Madison participa.
ted, but Hill was too fast for them
and got entirely away. When he
found that he had eluded his cap
tors he turned and rode back to
town, and got himself arrested
the second time, but by some chance
managed to escape again, and elu-
ding the Jealous efforts of his pur-
suers, made good use Of his free
dom, and up to this time has not
been brought to answer this treble
penalty.

a serious negro riot occurred at Pitts

patch from that city says:
At about half past ten o'clock tonight
a desperate light took place on WyliG
street, between the members of the
Eleventh Ward Grant Club, composed
of cOlorcd men. and number Of citi-
zcns of the Fifth Ward, which gives
4 majority Of upwards of six hundred
votes. A meeting of Democrats was
held at the foot Of Chatham street
to.nieht. and addressed by several local
speakers. The darkic club is accused
of marching past the gathering with q
laundering of drums and blowing of
flies until the voices of the speakers
were completely drowned. The negroes
were not attacked for This, and returned
in the same manner. They passed by
for the second time without being dis
turbcd. But on reaching High street %
crowd on the sidewalk. u portion of
them suspected OF being mcmhcrs Of the
Central Greeley Club, chcCrcd for Gree
lev. Then the Fifth Ward Greeley Club
came upon the scene The captain OF
the negro club ordered his band to play.
In a moment there cnsucd great coniu-
sion. The procession broke up, and
stones were hurried in every direction.

cleaned out by the negroes, who accused
the proprietor Of Sheltcring the rioters.
