the Institute at that place. The good wishes

THE personal property Of William Tins

thing of value brought its real worth. Some
nice heifers, good butcher stuff sold at
about 3(G3ic.
ORR community has been under some
excitement for few days. occasioned by
differences between William Carpenter and
Elijah Lanham. Knives and pistols are in
demand. The trouble arose from the mys-
terious absence of some wagon wheels which
Lanhsm professed to know about, but
claimed that Carpenter sold them, etc, etc.
Both parties seem willing and eager that
blood shall be shed, and il is feared that the
worst has not come. We hope for the bet

CONGRESSIONAL CANVASS As had been
announced, the candidates Tor Congress in
this District, Messrs. Durham and Bradley,
met here, last Monday, and they had the
pleasure Of addressing enc Of the largest
and most intensely anxious audiences ever
assembled in the Court-housc. Mr.. Dur
ham opened the debate in speech OF one
hour snd fifteen minutes, and without in
tending TO disparage his eloquent and real
ly able young antagonist, we must say that
in the reply Of an hour and a quarter, Mr..
Bradley did not meet the grand questions

Mr. Bradley's speech was as good as could
have been made from a Republican stand.
point, there was lacking that convincing
force or power, which accompanied the
speech Of Mr.. Durham. In fact, no speech
we have heard or read during the pending
canvass in this State, was ADLER than the one
delivered here last Monday by our distin-
guished standard bearer. All OF the lead

discussed from the highest plane Of States

THE classic Hanging Fork Of Dix River
has lost it, chance for immortality. The
origin Of It's euphonious application has
been a mystery 10 many an Antiquarian,
Many an ingenious theory has been advance
ed 10 account for the name. But Il IL a
mystery still. That oracular individual
"the Oldest inhsbitant" loses his reckoning
when he encounters the question. The
dusty annals Of the past are unilluminc'l
by a single ray Of light upon the subject.
Tradition falter- and fails when wrestling
with the momentous question; and we are
compelled 10 wander along its beauteous
banks, ignorant still as TO the origin Of its
poetic title. Last week one Of the attaches
Of the Geological Survey, arrived in our
village and planted his tripod on the cen
trail crossing. Drawing note book and PEN
ell, he proceeded TO record his observations,
occasionally varying his proceedings by In
terrogating the loiterers on the corners, and
noting their replies. Now, our people are
decidedly ford Of talking, but they are as
decidedly averse to having their answers TO
suspicious questions recorded in book.
Hence, the party was soon reduced TO two
persons the Geologist and Davy Mcclure,
our excellent Irish boot maker. Dvy IL
rather deaf, and was bli.sfulIy oblivious to
all that had been said But now the stran-
ger turns an ominous glance on him, and
sternly asks: "what do you call this
stream that passes through your town."
Davy failed to respond. The question was
repeated in his ear in louder tone, when
Davy, comprehending the drift Of the in
inquiry, and evider.ly commiserating the
ignorance from which it sprung, replied
with a triumphant air: "Bedads, we call II
the creek" The Geologezer folded his
tent" and Mcclure is honored ns the savior
Of his village, and the true exponent Of the
genius Of his native land.
A WEDDING came of in the Mt. Salem
region this morning, but as 1t occurred in
"Simon's" bailiwick, shall not trespass on
his domains. OF course he will rejoice in
so good an opportunity to treat Of sub
iect at once interesting and novel. The
truth is, IL matters don't mend soon in our
community, we are in fair way to be out
ragged by generation Of old bachelors,
with none 10 mend their garments, and
corresponding number OF old maids mourn

with any stock in town as to extent, and
the cash-in-hand principle enables us to
