"A shopkceper purchased of an Irish
woman Il quantity of butter, the Jumps of
which, intended for pounds, he weighed
in the balance and found wanting. Sure,
it's your own fault if they are light" said
Biddy, in reply to the complaints of the
buyer; tits your own fault, Sir; for wasn't
it with pound ofyour own soap bought
here myself that weighed them ~ The
shopkeeper had nothing more to say on
that subject.
Political orators in the West indulge
in some high-tlown reservations in regard
to their firmness ofprinciple. The follow
ing is a moderate specimen: Build u
worm fence around the Winters supply of
Summer weather, skim the clouds from the
sky with teaspoon, catch thunder cloud
in bladder break a hurricane to harness,
ground-sluice an earthquake, lasso an
avalanche, pin a napkin ON the crater of
an active volcano--but never expect to see
me false to my principles"

a seven-year old girl was reproved late
ly for playing out doors with boys; she was
too big for that now. But with all imapi-
nable innocence she replied, "Why, gram
ma, the bigger we grow the better we like
EN-" Gramma took time to think.

Cotton Notes.

Although We have been picking cotton
for two months in this region, the effect can
scarcely be discemei IN the fields, espe-
cally in the bottoms. The fields are stu
white, and hands To pick are in great de-
mand
our farmers are pushing forward their
crop us fast AS II is ginned and baled.
Bell and 1oryelle counties have sent an
Immense amount of cotton to this market
already, aud have much more remaining be-
hind.
Waco has stood at the head of our State
markets so far 10 the price paid for the
staple.
Yesterday was distinguished by the lm-
mensc number Of bales received
The cotton clog stili continues, the road
being totally unable to move 1t as fast as
the wagons deliverit.
