construed into an oversight or neglect
Of duty. Items have been rather
scarce or rather the public mind has
been 50 much involved In election
matters. that anything outside of that
heated channel would have failed to

trolled throughout the State for sew

is over and peace aud quiet restored

II a skiff belonging to the ferry. The
two white men referred 10 entered

SUDDES DEATH.-On Friday last
about two o'clock pm, Mr.. P. J.
McGcttrick, a well known young man
of this city, dropped dead in the
Section-housc of the Mississippi Cen
trail Railroad, near the depot. Mr..
McGettrick had been complaining all
the morning of WEAKNESS, and of
pains throughout his body. An hour
or so before his death he rested in the
shade near the residence of n friend,
complaining OF WEAKNESS. From
there lie went to the Section. house
aud layed down to sleep, In short
time he was heard crying out get of
OF me-" and several persons went TO
his room, found him under the bed
struggling rs if III combat; and in the
very instant that they succeeded in
getting him from under the bed. he
dropped upon the floor without "a
struggle, stiI in death
Up to a short time ago Mr.. McGct-
trick was engaged in merchandising
in this city. But he was not success
FIJI, and his splendid stock of goods
was recently sacrificed under the
hammer of the Sheriff to satisfy East
ern debts. From the wreck of his
fortune he saved absolutely nothing,
surrenderiug everything to his cred
itors, and ut the time OF his death he
was penniless and dependent. He
was a native Of Ireland, aud lad been
but a few years in this country. He
was about u years of age and Young
man of fine personal appearance and
address. His funeral occurred on
| Saturday from the Catholic Church,
which was crowded on the occasion
with weeping friends. The solemn
service Of that grand old church was
read By Father Veale in manner most
/ touching. The remarks OF the Rev.
Father we're eloquent aad beautiful,
and the solemn lesson he drew from
the sad occasion, sunk doep into the
hearts of all present. During this
touching address there was not Il dry
eye in the church, and the Rev. Father
himself seemed to profoundly feel
every eloquent thought that he ex-
pressed. The procession to the Gene,
terry was unusually large.
Poor Pati \ nobler heart never
beat: and tender memories Of thet
will long linger in the hearts Of those
who knew thee in this strange land.

The BANQUET.-W had the pleas
ure and he honor of being a guest at
the elegant birthday banquet, given
by T. A. Blair, Esq, on Tuesday
night tao 18th. 1t COMMUNICATED
Mr.. Bla;f's 2Sth birthday. and was
an occasion rare and rich with enjoy
ment for both him and his friends.
On entering the elegant suit of rooms
occupied by Mr.. Blair in the Greer
building, we found them filled with
bachelors, who were enjoying them
selves in accordance with their sever
al tastes. Mingling with the festive
crowd and distributing ourself among
them in the freest manner, we found
that all occupied the very apex of
jollity, and were overlooking with
congratulations to their generous and
talented host. The banquet was a
feast of wine and good things gener-
ally, worthy of the traditional heath
en- gods, around whose boards story
tells, wine, wit, humOr and philOso-
ply flowed in endless streams of Joy.
Mr.. Blair presided with a grace aud
dignity and a big-heaTted hospitality
that won from every generous heart
the rare plaudit of accomplished
host" At an hour decent in morals,
the happy guests departed for their
homes each and all wishing their
gallant and noble Young friend many
returns of his natal day. To theirs
we add our poor mite of good will,
coupled with the prayer that all the
days of his life may be as bright as
that which marked his 2Sth anniver-
sary

FoR FAMILY UsE.-Although there
are to-day thousands of the Weed
Sewing Machines being run by man
ufacturcrs of heavy goods, yet we cs-
pecially recommend it for family use.
1t is notorious fact that this ma
chine has the most complete sett of
attachments ever sold with any one
machine. It's tucker, hemmer, braid
or, corder, Teller and rufller are abso-
lutely perfect, and there is no kind of
sewing that can be done with any ma
chine or with the hand that cannot be
performed quickly and beautifully by
this wonderful machine. As 10 wheth-
er the Weed Will last as long as some
of the other machines, or not, We are
unable to say, as the Weed has only
been on the market about ten years.
However, whenever we hear of one
wearing out, we will then determine
this point. This machine can be seen
at the salesroom, opposite TOmlin's
Hall, where our clever young friend,
Mr.. Rob't Hamilton VIII take great
pleasure in showing you its many
good qualities, and will take in your
grcenbacks with so much grace and
dignity that You cannot help feeling
he has done you favor. Give Ham
iltOn a call if for nothing else, to al
low him the pleasure of showing you
that elegant show case which he has
Just received.

How Is THIS? Recently a gentle
man from Henderson county procured
license in this county to marry one OF
Madison's loveliest daughters. The
ceremony was performed at the resi-
dence of the brides father in this
county on July 3lst, by a magistrate
from Henderson. About a week after
the marriage, the question was raised
as to whether the Henderson magis-
trate had the right to solemnizc mat
rimony in another county. The father
of the bride consulted his neighbOrs
and come to the conclusion that the
marriage was illegal. Here was a pre-
dicament indeed, and the brides
father lost no time in procuring a
Madison magistrate and having the
astonished pair remarked. However,
the happy and much married pair it
is presumed enjoyed themselves all
the same during the interegnum. But
the question is, was the first marriage
illegal?

/ STEALING CORN.-A corn field near
the city having been ruthlessly Preyed
upon by hungry darkies for weeks
the owner of the same resolved to put
a stop to the thieving through the
agency of powder and shot. To this
end he armed trusty darky with a
well loaded double barrel shot gun.
to watch the field at night. But tb3
trusty darkie failed to discover the
invaders, and reported that the corn
was stolen in the day time, instead of
at night. The owner then placed his
well loaded gun in the hands of a
young darkie, with instructions to
watch the field by day, and shoot any
one who dared invade it. The young
"nig' took the gun, shouldcred it with
great solcmnity and marched off to
the field with an expression of deadly
determination upon his sable counte-
nance. On reaching the field he seat
ed himself beneath the shade of a
generous tree and prepared for bust
ness. He had not been seated long
before sleep over came him. In the
midst of his slnmbers, the theft came,
stole hisgun, filed his sack with young
corn and quietly stole away. The
music and the song is-''whO watches
that field now"
