The Methodist Epis- copal Church South was filled to repletion at the morning service and Rev. ]. \. Mer- Till delivered one of his interesting discour>cs. In the evening we had the pleasure of listen ing to very interesting sermon from that gentleman and scholar, who k never at a loss for words the Rev. MT. Campbell. At tic close of the evenings exercises four of our citizens gave their consent to become members of that denomination. IL begins to look as though we havo had Moody or Sankcy in our midst for some time without knowing it.

SEX ESTABLISHED.

For the past two weeks bootblack of rath-
er etfeminate appearance has been in our city.
He was very industrious, and steered clear
from all bad or questionable associates. His
countenance bears a very mild express on
very womanly; his har is of the length of
a thirteen-year old schoolgirls. In fact,
every action of his indicated that he was of
a different sex than his attire or occupation
would indicate. He was supposed to be girl
in disguise by many who patronized him in
the bootblacking line At an early hour last
evening, however, the sex of the "shiuer'
was established beyond any possibility of con-
tradictien On the evening train from Reno
another bootbiack came up, seeking an oppor-
tunity for making Christmas piece. Although
it is not generally understood, yet there exists
a certain sort of freemasonry among this class
of nemadic individuals. The new arrival lad
heard that the effeminate looking bootblack
was tarrying here. His frat mission in the
city was to seek out his professions brother
or sister-as the case might have been 1t
did not take the new arrival long to find the
OBJECT OF ms search Upon neeUnS sara Cd
ject, he Immediately commenced to josh" 1t
in the most intolerant manner; he addressed
the foulest language to 1t, and leased it in a
way that would wear out the patience ard
forbearance of an archangel. The efeminate
bootblack took it all in until fOrbeararce
ceased to be virtue with him, when he plant
ed his fist, with force equal to that of a de-
scending sledge hammer, between the eyes
of his tormentor, at the same time remarking,
q If you don't believe I am pretty good boy,
just you feel of my muscle, Don't judge by
appearances hereafter" The Reno bootblac'1
walked off, and we confidently believe that
there is no question in his mind respecting
the sex of the efeminate looking Carson boot |

THE PILGRIM.

Our old friend Mr. Hazlett, The Pilgrim
paid the MORNING APPEAL office visit yes
terday. He has held his own and tougheneC
with years, has The Pilgrim, albeit there are
signs of his true inwardness apparent in the
rubicundicity Of his nose, the f1edness of his
expression of indifference to locality and the
general cut of his jib. We noted, with some
thing like admiration, as he stood, looking at
the office boys unencouraging back and toy
ing with his whisker, that his hand seemed,
like Cleopatra S form, ''fexile and fair. 1t
was a cleaner and more aristocratic hand than
that of your common, hardened tramp; and it
showed blood, as of the Gordons or the De-
Nevilles Indeed, Hazlett is as high name
as anybody need to carry about among his
frowsy hairs and among his scanty habili-
ments, as he trudges and cheats" his way
Of the high nobility of letters stands William
of that name But as with other men who
have matured in their business, Hazlett has
hardened. There is little of the fresh Joy of
early manhood upon him, nor yet of the jo-
cund mirth and keen observance of wholesome
virility He is a hard case, is The Pilgrim
Even his old pretense is gone-all gone and
left him brazen and stolid We found him
trying to force conversation with the fore
man. 1t was up hill work. Then he tackled
the head of the firm who was busy {" throwing
in. The conversation was not profitable
He came round and shook hands with his old
friend, the editor. With all his hardness of
forehead, The Pilgrim has not forgot his du
ties to the editorials person. He DOTTED his
sorry hat He cleared his husky voice. He
was too honest, consistent and considerate to
indulge in any palaver, any vain and frivolous
He out with it. He wanted
the price of meal. We suggested an order
on a restaurant and began to write one-for
four-bit meal. Two bits in money, he inter
posed, would do quite as well. But we stuck
to the truth-that we were dead broke-and
wrote him the order for a square dinner. He
lid mt thank U.S. He knew that we knew he
was not in the least bit thankful On the |
he was scolnful and rebellious He |
wanted the price of a drink, (and so help us
Bob, if we'd had it, he shouldn't have gone |
IF without it); but he failed to fetch it and |
20 went away disappointed and angry. We
wish him better luck next time.

hibition of their proficiency in the calculation
of the mysteries of the kindergarten.

FsRrILIzERs.-Long trains Of wagons, avera.
ging not less than ten, have been passing
through our streets every day for the past two
weeks, on their way &c Clinton. They return
laden, chiefly with fertilizers. We regard IL
quite problematical whether these large ship
ments Of fertilizers are beneficial to- the farming
Interests Of ;tho county, or Jsotherwise,, We
have observed one fact in regard to this fertiii-
ger business, viz The farmers who buy tho
most guano, raise little or grain, but make
big crops Of cotton, are generally the hardest p
of any other class Such men generally buy ali
their supplies on credit, during the summer, at
ruinous prices, are compelled to sell their cotton
early in the fall for whatever they can get, and
when they settle with their employees, and paw
some other debts, (for they rarely pay ally they
have no money let. Hence, they must ask for
credit. 1t is this class of men who fail to pay
their little debts-suoh as the printers dues, for
instance.
We are not. by any means, opposed to the use
OF fertilizers. We know they are indispensable
to much of the land of this County, but we
would suggest tho propriety Of buying less of
the commercial fertilizers and the farmer making
more in his own barn yard, or elsewhere
