Johnnie II. tells good one ON another
Phnnie, gay and festive youth ofour
|wn-and light-hearted, generous fer-
NV. The latter, without the shadowy
htline of hair on his smooth face, con-
lived the idea, few days ago, that he
hght to shave. So Off he hied to the
Rrber shop and seated himself in the
Snsorial chair, at the same time calling
j a shave. The barber lathered his face
3ry heavily and then sat down and de-
1berately went to sleep, from which he
rs aroused by his youthful customer
Eclaiming with considerable indigna
bn, "Why the devil don't you shave
: e?o whereupon tie barber yawned
lilly and quoth: ".oh, Use. waitin for
2m boards to grow" This was too
tlch for tho aspiring youth, and he
fickly washed off the lather and scorn-
j ly quilted the shop-and now villiiies
Il said barber as a lazy, worthless,
&epy-headed cuss!

The Sunday School Festival, or Pic
Mic rather, ON Friday last, was, III our
opinion, the prettiest and pleasantest at
fair of the kind which has happened
among us for long time. The spot Sc
lected is classic ground-the margin Of
the old Pine House Pond, where thirty,
forty, fifty years ago our fathers and
mothers, grandfathersa and grandmothers,
went every spring and held their famous
"hucklebery parties" and when the
"stage" travelled from Augusta to Wash
ington, always stopping at the Pine
House. AT the picnic the other day,
Capt. Ben Belts, who inherits the Pine
House and it's beautiful pond from his
fathers, told us some curious and inter-
testing tales of these good old days.
The Sunday School scholars went prin-
lcipally in handsome Jackson wagons,
while the young fellows were irresisti
bile in staving buggies and fleet steeds.
The young girls wore the prettiest, jaun-
&iest, freshest calicoes ever seen. How
Tonderfuliy pretty they can make them

3ic-nic. And as for the locality, we
now of none other so peculiarly adapt

port Of large imports for this wook, amounting
to S8447, 1851, did not impart any strength to the
