PRINCE HAMBLET0N is 8 years old, was
bred by Mr.. Meeker of Westport, Conn.
His sire is the famous Winslow horse, other
wise Young Hambletonian, (Wallace's Trot-
ting Register) his dam by Serman Morgan.
Young Hambletonian, who was sold for Sl6,
900, was sired by Rysdyke's Hamblelonian,
the greatest trotting sire known; his dam
thoroughbred mare by son of Henry. Thus
it will be seen that PRINCE HAMBLET0N
combines in a choice style the running with
tie trotting elements. He is a beautiful

100 pounds, and for beauty, style, and 90
ciliiy, is unsurpassed by any horse in the

( LOCAL FOR HOME CONSUMPTION -
Hickman business men, some of them,
have grown too indolent. Relying, upon
larger and superior stocks of goods as
compared with our competing points
they hav mt realized the Importance of a
trade AMI building up new fields. Com
petition is the life of trade, and it must
be said TO the credit of some of our lesser
neighbors, that considering their lesser
capital and youth as trade points, that
they are making lively fight for trade.
The point here sought 10 be made is, that
Hickman, for various reasons, ought to,
egilimately, be able to undersell, interi-
or points. These are facts which the
farming people understand. The advant-
ages Of capital, of bringing large stocks
IN bulk, OF competing river and railroad
ireights, all feRd to stain these points.
Take for instance the house of Buchanan
Barnes They buy in large stock from
ibe Eastern markets, often direct from
nanufacturcrs and is il not plain that
hey can put goods at better f CURES than
houses which buy small stocks in the
Aome cities. The same is true of Luttrell ;
g W White 5, and others, as compared TO
@ntiguous points. The house Of Plaut x
Bro, for the original house in Hickman
mi the six or seven branch houses, buys
probably over one hundred thousand dol
ars worth Of dry goods at each purchase
te.the East, and its advantages over
bOues in the interior which buy only
S5,Us0 or $1,000 stocks, is apparen &.
None OF the competing points offer any
special cOmpetion 10 Hickman in groce
ries drugs, hardware, or printing. In a
retail way, ambitions points, offer live
iy Competition, and when conducted le-
gitiuately, it is all right. 1t may serve
10 brush US all up to a little more life and
enterprise The Hickman COURIER goes
out Zach week with glowing expressions
Of favor for our business interests, and
it states nothing knowingly except facts,
and Ehat II believes to be to the interest
Of our patrons who buy as we'll as those
who have goods to sell. II lectioneers
for al. whether advertisers or subscr b.

nication for the public, helping whomso-
ever it can. Hickman aud Fulton count y
