MEssRs. EDITORS Your valuable paper
of the Sd inst. did not reach us until Satnr-
dav evening. and let us tell YOU there was
scramble among the children, each one
wanting the paper first.
We are not surprised that the Legislature
adjourned without effacting settlement OF
the State debt Politicians will now have
will be quite careful to get on the popular
side of the question. Your resOlute CORES
pendent from leagues can now have the
opportunity to make good his pledge, and
if he has any legal tender" left, would
modestly ask him to extend his generosity
enough to pay the expense incurred by the
late extra Legislature We can not say that
we are in favor OF Reputation, and We arc
very sure we are not when the debt is COM
ing to us, We say to all pay your honest
debts,if you owe State debt pay it, if you
owe your merchant or your neighbor pay
him, if you owe Your doctor pay him or else
do not annoy him with frequent calls for his
service. We say to all go TO work and put
in every day, and soon we will have no more
hard times. Go TO work and soon VIC will
have plenty money to pay every debt We
owe, and money to spend.
We regret to learn that a goodcal OF
meat that was slaughtered about the be-
ginning and during the recent warm spell of
weather is damaged. A good many of our
rcighbors are killing now, aud We would
say to our friends Bradford and Tate come
down and we will furnish you a fresh sup
ply of brains
Prof. Futrall's classical and scientific school
at this place opens TO day, VIC are very sure
there is no more compctant teacher of youth
in this entire section, than our friend Flu
trail, We bcsptak for him large atten-
dance at his school,
DR., Robinson reports health good, and
hopes it will remain good, at least until the
people pay the doctors bills little better.
The DR.. says he intends turning new leaf
in his primer,
Our friend d, II, Pipkin and his excel
lent lady have become citizens of our town.
Pipkin is conducting Il grocery store and as
he is an experienced hand in the business we
hope he will do we'll,
We had merry Christmas, several par
ties were given in and around town and we
have been assured every thing went off nice
ly. As for oursclf we only attended one
party, only few were there and consequcnt-
ly there was no dancing, nevertheless all
well highly pleased with the result. We
can not omit TO say we heard OF a party
some where between here and leagues
which was attended by several married
gentlemen, among whom wa-e ourg, Cd friends
Geo. Bradford and Squire Tate, and we are
informed that thesetwo engaged lively i'll the
dance, and that the first gentleman made ire
mcndous efforts, handling his feet and
legs very much like full grown giraffe, and
that the Squire carried himself very hand
somely indeed, and trotted around like a
thinks old John Robinson will soon offer a
round sum for this pony.
Now Mr. Editor just one thing more in
which we feel an interest, and then we are
done, we are anxious to know what has be-
come of Squire Blair since he and our ex-
cellCnt district constable made that dreadful
dash few days since along the railroad be-
tween BradforIs and leagues Did the
Squire shoot amy one? Please inform us
what has become of Gould Nunce." Has
Subscriber" made him light out for taller
timber? More anon. AMBUSH.
