Marriage Bells In whitevilIe.
Editors Bulletin:
The quiet of this little town was broken
to-day by the hutter of excitement and ex-
pectation which generally heralds so inn
portant a social event as a wedding. As
the bells pealed merrily out at one O'Clock
P. NJ the people of Whiteville and OF many
miles around, assembled in the NJ. E. church
to witness the marriage of one OF Harde
mans fairest and most gifted daughters,
Miss S. R. Cross, to DIR. John Buchanan, OF
Fayettc county. The ceremony was per
formed in an impressive manner, by Rev.
Walter Moore, former pastor in this place.
The church was beautifully decorated by
kind and tasteful fingers. Just over the
heads of the young couple, green arch,
wreathed with flowers, held a beautiful
cross from which depended bunch OF pure
white lily-bells. On the table was white
bouquet of rare flowers, presented to the
bride by Mrs. Dr. Robertson. The bride
was elegantly dressed in light silk, and was
accompanied by four fair bridesmaids with
! their attendants: Miss EimonIa Cross, with
Prof. John Hardin, Miss Fannie Norment
with Mr.. R. L. Montgomery, Miss Rose
| Norment with Mr. Edmundson, Miss Sallie
Price with Mr.. Rhea, the two latter gentle
men from near SomerviIle. The brides
maids were stylishly dressed in delicate
mode suits, and all we're fair to see. Spec
ialIy was noted the contrast between tht
fair Norman face of Miss Rose Nornienf
and the rich southern beauty of Miss SalliC
Price. A host of friends crowded up t,
offer their congratulations to the happJ
pair, who left Immediately for their new
home near Somerville, accompanied b.
several of the bridesmaids. May they liv
long and happily, and may the bridegroom
have no crosses in life, but the charming
one he has taken up to-day.

An Astonishing Fact.

4 large proportion of the American peo-
pie are to-day dying from the effects of
Dyspepsia or disordered liver. The result
of these diseases upon the masses of in
telligent and valuable people is most alarm
ing, making life actually burden instead
of a pleasant existence of enjoyment and
usefulness as it ought to be. There is no
good reason for this if you will only throw
aside prejudice and skepticism, take the adj
vice of your Druggists and your friends,
and try one bottle of Green's August Flower.
Your speedy relief is certain. Millions of
bottles of this medicine have been given
away to try its virtues, with satisfactory re-
suits in every case. You can buy a sample
bottle for 10 cents to try. Three doses will
relieve the worst case. Positively sold by
all Druggists on the Western Continent.

Messrs. Editors:
was one of the many attendants of the
grand festival given at Grand Junction, on
last Thursday night and of course feel it
my duty to report to your valuable paper.
So that others may know that Grand juno
ton is one among the first in the country to
fix something nice, grand and entertaining
for both young and old. OF course Miss
Mollie and were bound to enjoy ourselves,
both of us being thoroughly acquainted, she
with the young and gallant gentlemen of
the place, and it formally being my home,
of course was acquainted with the fair sex,
of whose beauty and Intellect no town on
the Charleston can surpass. The young
ladies when retiring were loaded with nice
boquets and cakes; particularly Miss Fan
ME Bass, who for her beauty and attention
ever that lemonade, well won two of
the finest cakes that were on exhibition.
Miss Mollie Bowden retired with many fine
boquets and nice gifts. Miss Mamie Irwin
can boast Of. Booker presenting her with
nice bOquet of flowers as ever was on exhi-
as grand success as ever witnessed. I also
had the pleasure of meeting Col Becton, one
of the star men of the country, in fact, he is
perfect model for us young, men to work
by, he is strict Murphy, Christian and
gentlemen in every respect, and worthy this
patronage of all young men who want an
/ education both literary and military.
| Salisbury is still hourishing, buying cot
ton, chickens, butter and eggs, bartering i:
our chief trade now, and will continue we
expect till fall when we expect to beat the
whole line if we have good crops. We have
a new druggist, young and skilled gentle
man, indeed he is. Only one drugstore
purchased by Eddie Rosson from J. H.
Sannoner. My true desire is success tC
Eddie.
We had quite large crowd at church
yesterday to hear the talented young Bap-
fist preacher, Davis, preach on commun-
ion which was indeed very interesting
We had the pleasure of meeting the hand
some young gents, Charlie Smith and Wiley
Irwin, from Grand Junction, to hear the
popular Davis preach. Come again boys
when can be with you longer.
We trust that Miss Matte Williams will
enjoy her trip to your town, but surely sh'
must be enjoying it, as she has already made
her stay longer than was anticipated wheI
she left her friends at the depot with tear
full eyes.
We anticipated a grand Murphy meet
ing here last Friday night, but to our
disappointment we had no one to lecture
expecting the speakers from Grand June
ton, and after several had come in from
FIVE or ten miles in the country, we received
a telegram that they could not come. w
still expect them some day before long.

joined the Murphys and he now goes by the
name of Tom Murphy, OF which he SAYS he is
proud. he states that all former movements
have been failures, but he is determined
not to let this cause be q failure; he SAYS,
further, that he is ready TO canvass the
county, deliver lectures and bring the people
to sense of their duty, thereby causing
the citizens to live in peace, and finally,
when they die, enter into the Kingdom of
Heaven. Since the Murphy movement has
been in progress, the young, the old and the
middle-aged have organized a debating so
ciety which is in fiourishing condition,
and We are going to have it last as long as
the Murphy cause. When our citizens are
not under the soothing influences of a tenn
perance lecture, they are out on the river
fishing; they are not lying around the whisky
shops. 1t Is u rare occurrence to sec one of
our men step into the saloon; they have
business on the brain and think nothing
about drinking. We would like to have
our friend Day stay with US for several
days; he certainly can do good; he has done
good and he is able still to do good. We
are going TO have another meeting next

"Ah! women are fickIei" you ten me,
'WelI-yes-if by tickle you mean
A trifle less false than men are5
And greatly more true than they seem"
"But women arc cruel-sO crueh
They Hatter and coax for awhile,
Then tread on the hearts we give them,
And deal us 4 blow with smile!"
"But women are cruel-so cruel!
In million of charming ways;
So sorry at times to have hurt you,
So kind on the gloomiest days
"But you men!-you calculate nicely
How near you may go, or how far,
And never one moment you soften,
To pity the hope that you mar.
"And when at last you are successful,
And the flower floats down to your feet,
Its colors are no more so perfect,
Its perfume no more so sweet.
''You leave it to lie on the roadside
First tramping it down in the dust,)
And fancy that such is your rigl.t here,
'TO break and to outrage our trust.
"You think US so weak, till We sting you,
And give you at last your deserts;
And then you turn around in your anger
And vow that all women are hirts,
Believe, that if you would let US
BE honest and true, as we are,

The world would be better by far"

MAY 10Th, 1873.
Messrs. Editors:
Middleton is yet in the front rank of
prosperity and industry. The commercial
matters are a little dull here now, though
that can be satisfactorily explained in the
fact that our farmers are busily engaged at
home on their crops. Our people are using
every apparent advantage with great energy
making (just what we all are compelled to
have) something to live on at home And
think better remedy for hard times, Just
such as we are having now, could not be
employed. When we know that the sup
port for all must come from the tiller Of the
soil, is quite encouraging to think that our
resources present prospects of abundance.
We have more than an average of wheat
growing, but rust is damaging it some, and
we will, probably, not have an average
crop. About an average oat crop planted,
with fine prospects; more than an average
corn crop planted and looking very we'll; a
less than average cotton crop with prospect
not very good. The recent cool mornings
have caused it to look badly. A fine warm

viving vegetation generally. The prospects
for peach crop is very good. Apples are
quite scarce. But we have one abundant
crop of fruit coming on very often), that is
the candi(y )-dates. They never let an op-
portunity pass unimproved, to the great
annoyance of persons of an industrious ma.
ture. Our friends all speak of great en-.
enlargement, and think many voters give
it to get rid of their pleasant faces. We BID
them go ahead, but know that many o.
their towering heads will droop when the
first of August shows that they are hope
