are certain that no pains or expense

On Monday night, the Goth nit.
the store house OF Mr.. Henry Lord
was again broken open by some
thief or thieves, who robbed Mr.. L.
of about one hundred and fifty dol
lars worth of groceries, consisting
of sugar, coffee, meat, meal, flour,
cheese, wines, tobacco, candies, etc
The burglar was evidently cat
home" in that house, Judging from
the careful selections made, as the
best of each article was taken. We
think it is high time for those in
authority to look into this matter,
and try to ferret OUT the scoundrels
and bring them to Justice. Every
man who pays his city taxes has
right to the protection Of the city
fathers. We would suggest spe-
cial night police, and the offer of a
reward sufficient to induce some
efficient party to detect the robbers.
Until some steps are taken in this
direction we may expect TO hear of
more house-breaking.
Since the above was in type we
lear that Mr.. Lord identified somo OF
his missing goods in the house of
Joe Cannon, colored, near town,
which were, Concealed between the
weather boarding and ceiling of the !
house. Cannon was arrested and |

MEMORIAL DAY IN CANTON
Monday, the &c h nit, being the
regularly appointed time in this
State for the decoration Ofthe graves
of the soldiers IN our late war, was
duly observed by all those who
revere the memory Of the dead,
and wish to perpe' uate that memo
~ in the minds of the young. at
least annually, for all time to come
1t is right for us to remember the
loved and the lost. 1t is mete we
should recount their brave deeds
and drop Il tear to the memory of
those whom we shall meet no more.
The Sunday Schools of the differ
ent denominations were ali ont, fully
represented and presenting beau
tiful appearance. The address of
ex Mayor Harvey was beautiful and
app opriate and delivered in the
most graceful 81 yle-even the young
est c!i:idren see-cel to appreciate
his well chosen remarks.
The procession was very orderly,
being in charge of a marshal who
ruled the day in most mastery,
manner.
We have to chronicle only one
unpleasant occurrence on the occa-
sion, which was the misfortune of
Mr.. Sam. Divine who had his ankle
broken by being thrown from a
buggy in returning from the grave
yard It was considered very for
tunate that others were not injured
by the accident.
The Canton brass band deserves
the thanks of all the citizens for tie
fine music they discoursed during
the day. The sweet strains of
Chilly Dale" still linger in our ears,
reviving distant, sad, tender, yet
pleasant recollections.

Patent Eon-Expiosive Coal OIL
Burner for the States of Mississip-
pi and Tennessee. We have given
one OF these burners fair test and
can recommend it to cur readers
as the best we have ever used. Its
superiority over ordinary burners
consists in thus, that it does not
smoke, or break cllinneyS, and as
it does not heat below the top of
the burner, no gas can generate
in the lamp. 1t gives one-third
at least more light than any other
burner and is so constructed that
if it should fall on the floor 1t
will invariably 60 cut without
causing an explosion. Every
