fort. His shop is near the Linden.
He will give you any style of shoe

We learn with sorrow that Mr..
Alex. Black is rapidly failing and
cannot possibly live more than a
few days. 1t will be gratifying to
his numerous friends, however, to
know that he is ready. He has set
his house in order and calmly awaits
the summons to cross the river. He
made his will last week and was
baptised into the Church.
Lieut.. Chas. G. Rogers returned
last Thursday from Annapolis,
where he had been ordered for ex-
animation with the rest of the class
of 1876. He was promoted from
the rank OF Mldshipman to that of
Ensign, which is equal to the rank
of First Lieutenant in the army.
He will probably be in Pulaski
month or two.

paugh's circus is on the road we
may have the opportunity of seeing
it at home. Don't let it get loose,
Lander.
We were called to account last
week for slahdering the eating jury.
1t appears that it was Mr.. Thos. |
Jefferson Wells who cleaned out the |
Linden. The other eleven sat |
around him in a circle and watched |
him eat for an hour and then car
ried him upstairs He recovered, |
but the Linden House has not.
The spring races which commence |
in Nashville on the 29th will be the |
finest ever had. There are already
So flyers on the course, some of the
best, and still they come. There
will be more stock men and larg
er crowd than ever before, it is pre-
dicted. We know several who will
go up from Pulaski.
Mrs. Andrew L. Crow has been
dangerously ill during the past
-ool- nth ;1aoro ootinp ~ tho |
stomach, but she is now much bet
ter. We trust she may speedily
recover and live to celebrate her
golden wedding next year and many
succeeding anniversaries thereafter.
Maj. HUI. F. Ewing and family
left yesterday for Navarro county,
Texas. We bid them adieu with
regret. Maj. Ewing has been an
and useful citizen of
Pulaski for II or 10 years, and has
made host of friends. We wish
them prosperity and happiness.
Twenty-Five dollars reward will
be paid by Mr.. j. C.. Potts for the
recovery of his stolen mule and the
thief, or $40 for the mule. See mis-
for description. The
should have appeared /
in the last CITIZEN, but was mislaid
by the printer and overlooked.
The card of Whitworth d Moore
will attract attention. Mr.. Rich
ardson has already made reputa-
ton as a good salesman all through
this section of the South and has
built up very large trade. His
house is a good one and we hope to
see it patronized through him.
