1t is thought by some that the Off
ccs Of County Auditor and Treasurer
will be made elective. Ifcycry coun-
ty in this State were as we'll suited as
ours is in this respect, there would be
no necessity tor this. Our Treasurer
and Auditor arc prc-cmincntly the men
for the positions which they occupy,
and il is our opinion that if their cor
tinuancc in office were left to the pco-
pie, that no change would he made.

an old Incident.

A prominent citizen and merchant of
this place tells this joke on himself:
Nearly a half century ago, when he
was young man about eighteen years
of age, he was clerk in the house now
occupied by C. n. Walker. One Sun
day morning, not feeling very devotion
al, he took novel, reclined upon his
bed, and began to read. Becoming
drowsy he unconsciOusly fell asleep. In
a short time two robbers entered the
room, armed with heavy clubs. They
came up towards the foot of the bed,
and passed towards the head. So terri
bly, was re alarmed that he became, as
it were, spell-hOund, and could not
move for some minutes, which period
seemed an age 70 him, as he expected
each second to have his brains knocked
out. As soon as he got control of him
self sufficiently, he sprang into the mid
die of the floor, and seized a chair. He
soon discarded this weapon and picked
up large billet of wood. By this time
the robbers had disappeared, and as he
thought gone into the sales-roOm.
Cautiously approaching the dOor-club
in haud-he stood for some minutes.
From the front transum sufficient light
was admitted for him to see that the
robbers were not in that room Turn
ing around his eyes fell upon the cellar
door, standing half aar. As a lion or
tiger springs upon its prey, so he sprang
10 the door, and quick as a flash turned
che key. He had them, safe. He then
went to the door leading to the street,
and waited an hour before he could see
any one to help him secure his pris-
Oners. 1t being Sunday morning, but
few people were upon the streets. FL
nally, he saw two men and called for
help. He stated the whole circumstance
to them. Being thoroughly armed
the trio began to descend the cellar steps
slowly and cautiously, our hero in the
the van. The cellar was dark, and full
of barrels, boxes and debris. The search
was continued for some time but with
out success. Each moment the search~
ers expected the robbers would spring
from their hiding places, and a deadly
contest would ensue. Our hero broke
the deathlike silence. Turning quicke
ly back towards his assistants, he said
in tremulous tones, for his throat was
husky from excitement 1.-The robbers
are-the two men raised clubs and
awaited breathIessly-but the fearful
dream, which had so terribly impressed
him that he could not realize but that it
was a fact.

! Last Saturday night, soon after the
northern train came in, stranger call
cd aside Mr.. Mays, one of the gentle
manly pr0prietors of the Nelson House,
and told him long story, the short OF
| which is that he had determined to
move from Canada to Pulaski, Tenn;
| that he had Just enough money to send
| his family on the train, and walk him
| self; that he had walked here, and hap
pened to get here just as the train did;
that he was tired, without money, and
would like to get free lodging. Mr..
Mays replied that if he were convinced
that the strangers story was true he
would rather take care of him for moth
ing than not. The stranger insisted on
his story being true, and finally Mr..
Mays consented to take care of him, and
sent him up TO one of his best rooms.
When Mr.. Mays returned 10 the fire, he
got in conversation with Mr.. Jake Orr,
OF Mt. Pleasant, who came in on the
night train. Mr.. Orr told him he saw
the stranger on the cars, and borrowed
MS New York Tribune, and returned il.
Mr.. Mays went upstairs and asked the
stranger to let him see the paper he ID
in his side pocket, and the stranger
brought forth the n. Y. Tribune Thor
oughly convinced that the stranger had
lied to him, Mr.. Mays made him leave
the hotel Immediately.
A young man passed here Wednes-
day who had walked all the way from

a Lively seenea1 NeeIy's Mills.

A few days ago, Ben and Dave, two
butchers. bought a yearling beot from
Milton Nicely. 1t seems that they haye
two modes OF catching beevss when III
an open field; one is by the lassO, and
the other is by setting two large dogs
after the beef They tried the latter
mode on the above mentioned calf. As
soon as the yearling found what was to
pay, he dashed off at full speed arou I'd
the open lot above the mill, the dogs
closely pressing behind.S The yearling
finding that this would not do, directed
his course toward the creek, which was
very much swollen by the late rains,
and as the last alternative plunged
beadlong into the turbid waters. One
of the dogs Immediately followed and
seized the calf by the ear, and struggled
hard TO bring the yearling to bank; but
the swift current was too strong for
him, and in another second they were
borne over the high dam, with terri BILE
splash, down to the angry bOils, resem-
bling some large log we have seen, COM
ing up only to be driven back by the
roaring torrent that pours down upon
it. The faithful dog concluded, it seems
that life has enough of ups and downs
without this kind of churning, and re-
linquished his hold. Strange to say,
" hen they thus parted the calf was the
FIRST to get out. On reaching the bank,
the calf seemed much more docile than
before, and in this condition was easily
slaughtered. We don't supposed a
more thoroughly washed piece OF beef
ever entered our market.
