Among the new enterprises at Lisbon, is
tho drug store Of DIR. Pennington, who
found that the demands Of bis large aud
lucrative practice justified venture OF
this kind. The Doctor informs MS that his
drug business was success. DIR. Penning-
ton has lived in Lisbon more than twenty
wears. md the highest evidence that can
be offered to his genuine merit As n physl-
clan and d citizen is, that he has always
retained q large business, aud has pros
perrd.
Twelve o'clock, Friday, fonnd our party
NJ the home Of our old friend, James Nc
Clen,oi,. ESQ, making visit long delayed
but all the more pleasant frou the fact
Thu, we had anticipated the pleasure for II
great while What with mammoth water
melons, the fruit of the season, good DIN
n.r, and much pleasant conversation, we
found that time had flown by on rapid
wings, when it was announced that We
must make our way back to DIR. Penning-
toms, there to prepare for the party at the
Academy.
Quite number Of young people were
| in Attendance ut this social gathering aud
enjoyed themselves quite well. And what
| is Ear better they paid the strangers who
were present special attention aud con-
tributrd 50 much to onr enjoyment that
we really regretted the arrival Of th. hour
when our night ride home began.
Our visit WAS the most pleasant one ever
made to the country. Besides those friends
whose names are mentioned In this article
there are many others, ladies' and gentle
men, who rendered us special courtesier
| that we shall always remember with Kind
; hest emotions. We know that IL is al
ways the custom to show SPECIAL taNor-
I to editors, but We think We know the diff
| ference between genuine fre--hcartrd hos
| pitality and that assumed for the occa-ion
/ All the visitors from Homer join us in thi'
feeling.
/ We conclude by stating that In our opin
ion the people Of Lisbon have decided
educational advantages and possess quite
u treasure in Mira. B"ykin. If they vii
only appreciate thi, fact aud give her tina
support aud encouragement that is thu
due Of one who is 30 int,lliGcntly euthusi
as;ic as She they will never have reason t,
regret 1t.

From the Shreveport Standard Of the
2lst we learn that the Convention finally
passed to its third reading the ordinance
recognizing the face Of the debt with two
per cent interest for five years, three the
next fifteen aud four thereafter. or this
settlement the Standard speaks in the
following emphatic language:
1t is reported that the debt ordl'
nance which PASSED its second read

that the question lnny be consider

We have been sometimes disposed to
complain that onr friends in presenting ma
with fruit, &c, have given rs small GUAM
titles rather A. specimens than as an ac-
tual treat; but that clever, whole-souled
gentleman, J. H. NJ. Taylor, has left MS no

has made the whole Office his lifelong
friends by forty pound melon and half
bushsl basket Of large aud luscious peach
e.. A thousand thanks, old friend.
