A CoIored FURRY.

Frances Shaw coIored is employed as
as cook by one of our citizens. Frances
had permission to take beneath her roof
two Of her colored female friends for a
few days until they could secure homes.
On Saturday last one Of the friends with
base ingratitude having stolen lot of
clothing and other articles belonging to
Frances and the other girl unceremoni-
ously left the premises. The two who
had been despoi!ed of their goods pur-
sued and came up with the thief just on
the other side Of the river They res
covered their property and proceeded to
give tho sinner a most unmerciful whips
ping In examining the stolen articles
q massive gold ring was found which be.
logged to the lady OF the house where
Frances is employed, but in their eager
ness to in1ict the punishment they lost
the ring and were unable to find it.

Sow Turnips and Rye.

In our great distress caused by The
failure Of corn and cotton crops, we can
improve our condition by sowing our
patches in rye and turnips The turnips
will be wholesome diet in winter and
and viii meet with ready sale in the
market. Nothing better, when properly
prepared, for mich cows. in winter.
Then 10 early Spring the greens with hog
jowl make palatable dish for the table.
Rye patches will make good pastures for
stock in winter and, if the stock be re-
moved from them in the spring, they
will with favorable season yield pro-
life crops Now is the Il me to attend to
the sowing of these two useful crops
and cur people ought not to neglect
them. Even our small farmers have
idle space for turnips and rye.

one of the thirty-seven States; has equip
ped more membrane men, for the

distinction Of being the Volunteer State

We had a call on Tuesday from Capt.
w. J. McDcrmott chief of Brownsville
Fire Department and agent for the
Champion Fire Engine. He visits cur
town for the purpose of inducing our
town authorities and citizens to furnish
an engine and the necessary appliances
for volunteer fire company. We are
very much in need cf something Of the
kind and, if our people do not now see
the necessity Of having better means Of
extinguishing a fire, there IS little use
Of our urging its Importance upon them.

Bon BAsKIN THE DOOMED METRO
We visited the cell Of Bob Baskin on
Tuesday lie is securely chained to the
Goor and has manaoles on his feet and
hands lie Las succeeded twice in
breaking loose his fastenings, but the
vigilance OF his jailor soon detected him
and has each time made them more Sc
cure. When we saw him he had Just
been bound with such manaeles as viii
certainly hold him lie talked to US
cheerfullY and when asked If be was res
signed to his fate he answered promptly
that he did not wish to die Of course, but
that as it must be so he could not help 1t.
lie Is in good health and seems to be
backed up with a stolid Indifference.
lie says that ne killed old man NARROW
without cause-not for the purpose of
taking his horse. When asked he was
making any preparation for death be
said that he had been thinking some
thing about it. Altogether the prisoner
does not look and talk like a man DEVOID
of all hope Of being saved from the gall
lows, and is good specimen of a
reckless African.
! ,SAULs8URY- We learn from a friend
that a great revival is going on in the
Methodist Church at salisbury. Larger
congreg cations in attendance than ever
before kaown. Rev Messrs Hughes,
Fife and Leatherwood are preaching
and laboring. increasingly and much good
IS being accomplished. The whole cons
munity seem awakened. There nave
been q conversions up to this time.
/ Rev. Mr. Hughes viii probably remain
a week or so longer. There is no telling
when the mceting win close as the peo-
pie flock to the house Of God with still
increasing interest and zeal and inereas-
ing numbers of penitents flock to the
alter ut every invitation.

There never was time when the
future Of politics was so uncertain
