II is truly wonderful, the variety and
ingenuity of the conveniences for the
desk and office-pens Of varied patterns,
inkstands possessing unmberless ad-
vantaages, letter files, each one the best,
envelopes Of size and qualities infinite.
1t Is almost bewildering to enter tho
large Broad street store of Walker,
Evans & Cogswell, in Charleston, and
see the number of these attractions.
Here you find the largest stationery
stock South Of Baltimore, and you only
have two troubles-first, sufficient cash i;
and, second, the difficulty in deciding
among the many things offered, each
equally suitable to your wants. Mt

the knot and moose, which suddenly
closed around his windpipe, and he was

in their attempts to devour them, The

school Examination.

The examination of the pupils of Mrs.
Watts school for the ending of the year

messed by the parents of many of them,
also numerous acquaintance. The e1-
animation passed off very creditably and
Gpeaks well for the teaching of Mrs.

With recitation by Miss Laura Horst,
who also entertained the audience with o
song. This was followed by recitation
by Miss Sophie Kuhls, after which a
morning song was sung by the school
children. Miss Newcome recited a short

Enthusiastically the payday Of
the Raymond & Ely Company for mine
labor passed very quietly, the usual busy
sights around the bar.rooms and other
places Of business were not visible. very
few men were intoxicated and the faro
games ran light generally, Whether all
this was owing to the men having by
pothecated their time checks in most
instances or to caution on their part in
disposing Of their money We are unable
to say. The bankers transacted very
light business during the day in dis
counting checks and general erumble
was heard on all sides.
