MEssEs. EDITORS: As usual, good health
prevails in our village. Business, on ac-
count of the scarcity Of green-backs, is
rather dull. Farmers are holding their
cotton for higher prices, and ayailing them
selves Of the good weather to finish gather
Ing their crops; which promise a better
yield than was anticipated earlier in the
season.
The repairing Of the County Bridges, on
the different roads leading into this place,
which has been needed so long, we under
stand has been let ont TO our townsman L.
;. uaItom, who we hope will soon have
them in good condition.
Notwithstanding the general good health
of the country, one of our M.D.'s concIud-
ell that he would like a partner, therefore,
on yesterday, in the presence Of several
witnesses and by the assistance OF Elder
W. T. Harris, life compact was formed
between DR.. J. L. Muse and Miss Maggie

DENMARK ITEMS.

EpTTOEs WING AND TRIBUNE: News,
for the last few days in our locality, has
been rather quiet. Nothing Of importance
10 note only the death Of Mr.. +. C.. Gordon,
who died on the 18th after a brief illness, of
congestion. Mr.. Gordon wa, one Of our
best citizens, honest, industrious and re-
igi0us, beloved by all; the community can
lily spare such men. IIcwas strict mem
Der OF the Baptist Church, and is now in
that better land prepared for those who
fight the good fight TO the end. Peace to
his ashes, and our sympathy and The COM
muuiy's TO hi, family.
The cheerful music Of the trowcl has been
heard once again in our midst; would that
it was the first and last sound heard every
d5y. Our eutcrprisinS and energetic young
friend. Mr.. Henry BrittOn, is having
brick chimney built to his business house.
The Gypsies were through here a few
days ago, making all happy; trading horses
and telling fortunes. We had fine rain
here saturday, the weather turning cold,
and. on Monday one OF the largest white
frO>ts ever seen in this vicinity.
Our town presents the unusual sight Of
cotton market Several Of our merchants
have been buying at advanced rases-to
settle accounts.
\ very painful accident occurred on Mr..
James Reds place. \ negro, foolins with
a corn-shcIlcr, caught his finger in it and
was so badly crushed 1t had 10 be ampU-
tated, which was done by DR.. Murchison.
The boy Is now doing well, but will always
wonder what became Of mis- finger, rs the
operation was performed while he was
under the influence of chloroform, such
was the painful nature of the wound.
We are pleased to see DR.. John \. Tyson
on our streets again, after a brief but very
severe spell Of sickness. Also, to see the
happy countenance Of your Local Editor
now promoted 10 the rank Of Junior Edi-
torn. Robert Gates. The promotion
gives Mr.. Gates many friends the greatest
pleasure, who only recognize it as right
due him for his energy and versatility, and
As the Wing and Tribune Is looked upon
in this locality as the standard Family Pa
per for county and general news, we all say
long may it wave with the names it now
bears at the mast head and the principles
it advocates.
DR. Murchison's fine mare ran away with
his buggy short time ago, making lot of
kindling and a complete wreck OF the
buggy. The Dr.. narrowly escaped serious
injury.
Trade has been unusually duh for the
last week although the stocks of goods are
larger and more varied, and at attractive
prices. Our merchants arc using more
energy and Offering better inducements for
q larger trade this Fall than any time since
the war. Mr.. f. L. Bryant, OF the firm of
Bryant ~ Hudson, left for Memphis last
Monday to complete his Fall and Winter
purchases, he having been kept from doing
so before by the yellow fever in Memphis.
Mr.. IL. l.. Penn accompanied him.
We also had the pleasure Of meeting our
Young Louisville friends, Mr.. Charles

he is most married; can't you help him to
make it oat before cold weather.
