'PossUM SHIPMENT hundred and
fifty 'possums, confined in a box car, were
received at the Grecnville and Columbia
Railroad depot from Walhalla yesterday af.
ternoon. They were consigned to well,
known coored caterer of Columbia, who
proposes to put them up, fatten them, and
deal them out to his customers, where they
would do the most good AGThei shipper has
evidently made mistake in this business
venture; he surely forgets the fact that
Mr., Chamberlain and his followers are in
stitutions of the past, and that "'possum
meat will not be as popular in the future
as it used to was. Charleston County bids
fair to come out all right; the "Santec or-
ator' and his friends have BEEN retired to
private life; and the 'possum trade, as a
natural consequence, will be dull in Colum-
bia this fall, There was a "gnashing Of
tccth," even if there was an absence of
weeping and wailiug," when the 'possums
arrived and were inspected, as though even
they seemed to read the writing Oh the wall.
