itself to become interested in the length
of ladies' stockings will sooner OF later
come to some bad end. We promise tc
keep clear of stockings, but not pin.
backs, charming poem on which will
appear next week.
! .Messrs. Wheeler & Co., successors to
Hix, are now prepared to make pictures
after the latest and most approved styles.
Persons going down to the Fair will
be allowed to enjoy themselves to their
hearts content, but they are advised to
keep out Of the calaboose. ,
Sow plenty of wheat, oats. barley and
rye, and in the coming spring reap a
rich reward.
He came to town the other day with
cotton, but did not pay that Little ac-
count which has been so long standing.
He told us, however, that he had not
forgotten it, and there is still hope.
Wood must be scarce, it comes in so
slow.
The season for cotton picking never
has been so propitious-it is nearly all
picked out.
l.. H. Redus arrived home on Thurs
day last, and is looking very natural.
No. 2 Mollohon Row has changed
hands-Mr. Perry FAINT will run the
store now with a choice stock of gro
ceries.
The skating rink is open for the sea-
SOD, and our young people are preparing
for bruises. Prof. Milan does the
agreeable.
Mr.. David Richardson, living near
Chappell's Depot, just across the river,
lost his dwelling and furniture by fire a
few days ago.
At length rain has fallen, it COM
menced on Thursday night, and in place
of dust we have mud. The town mule
will be engaged indefinitely in hauling
sand.
The old nuisance is showing itself in
wagons stopping on street crossings.
This is more frequent on our corner
than anywhere else. AS the wagons
which block this point load at Harmon's,
we suggest to that intelligent gentle
man to have them halt either above or
below, or Immediately in front Of his
doors. To stop in the way when mud
is thick is nuisance.
The Town Council and thei -Gcient
marshalls are requested to prevent the
distractions alluded to. Almost any
wet day and at every corner wagons
can be seen directly on the street cross
ings. To the pedestrians who have to
step aside in the deeper mud this is an
abominable nuisance. Stop it, some
body.
Mosquitoes have taken their last nip
for the winter having set in.
Jim Rice, colored, and a trifle tight,
from Mollohon, entertained the unwash-
ed and few others with the accom-
plished tricks of his dog Kilgore, Sat-
urday afternoon. Kilgore is smart
dog, and Rice good trainer.
The dog show was better than that
given under canvass in rear Of the Court
House. We are not prepared to report
positively. though, as no card of admls-
sion reached this office. It may be set
down as one-horse afair-or perhaps
mule.
The merchants of Newberry are in
censed against the officers Of the Green
vile & Columbia railroad, and until we
hear both sides of the question, they
seem to have just cause. They should
hold meeting and resolve something.
The auction man, who sells ten pair
of socks for 81, and other things in pro
portion, held his own all the week, with
the exception of one night, on which
occasion he got tight and was invited to
occupy lodgings in the guard house.
Sunday was the gloomiest day ex-
perienced since last spring-church-
goers generally remained in doors.
Father and son both said Turkey to
US last Sunday. unfortunately we could
not see it-other engagements. We
dare them to say Turkey again.
