Bsllville and Vicinity.

ces allow US to return our sincere |
thanks to beneficent Heaven in
blessing us with good weather for
gathering crops and sowing that
valuable and indispensable article
-wheat-ihe staff of life. Unfor-
tunately Bellville has lost one of its
best and most entefprising farmers |
and citizens, A. B. D., who conclu
ded to change his avocation of a |
farmer to that of a merchant. We
regret very much to lose him and
hope the avenues OF trade will open,
and the wheels of commerce and OF
fortune will revolve in his favor.
G. w. Merrell, w. II. Smith, K. 7.
Harwell, DIR. Elan Stevenson, and
the lovely and fascinating Miss Pat
tie Eel, have lately left their Carte
ds-visite and vanished like beauti-
full vision. Alas! alas alas we now
experience sensation in the car
dial region beyond the skill of
chemical analysis, medical diagno-
sis, or philosophical investigation.
A something that makes rs sadly
sigh:
Wo never loved dear Ezell,
To glad us with her melting eye,
But when she came to know us we'll
She kicked us, so TO speak, sky high.
Mr.. NJ. H. Northcross was lately
at the very gates of death but is
now convalescent, owing to the kind
Providence, skillfui physician and
the kind care and attention OF his
nurses. DIR. w. j. Motif is kept
busy in the practice of his pro-
fession, his patients generally
return to health end happi
ness. He is engaging extensively
in goat culture. One of his Nan
MES presented him not long since
with quite a prolific progeny: four
little capricorns to squeal ma-ha-
ha ha. Mr. Thos. Davis is finish
ing his hotel and Mr.. L. II. Holt is
pertecting his livery stable, and are
now ready to afford ample accom-
modations to all those who are in
that slckly, sentimental, half insane
condition of Romeo and Juliet. Mr..
John Lloyd, Jr., is brim-full of joy.
Santa Claus brought him something
from baby-land, a second edition OF
himself. She weighs ten pounds OF
happiness. Mr.. Fudge is prepar-
ing to erect a new and magnificent
barn for DIR. Wyatt Holt, who is
contemplating making himself and
somebody else happier ere long
He has a decided pench0Ht for wild
ows. We hope some charming
widow will lay aside her weeds for
his sake. IT'S rumored that he
said "wilt thou" and they wilted
Santa Claus has been very clever
this Christmas. In addition to fill
ing the children's stockings with al
kinds of good things, he brought q
very lage candy heart to one OF oul
most charming young ladies. II
came in a box about foot square,
and the heart! My conscience, what
a whopper! and how beautiful! The
outer edge is beautifully embossed
and inlaid with gold with inner
borders of royal red, snowy white
and rich saffron, surrounded by gen.
tly elevated dimples of pink and
purple. These borders are sur
mounted by undulating lines o.
various colOrs, meandering in curves
of grace and such interlinking in
the other. Immediately within are
trios of rosebuds of crimson, white,
pink, purple, ETC., vivid with life and
vleing in loneliness, encircled with
leaves and shoots of living green.
In the center is an elevated figure
in the form of an elipse surrounded
with rich border of gold, and cir
cumscribed by row of lovely little
haky snow balls. The whole is
simply lovely, denoting elegance of
taste, perfection OF style and beauty
of design, and more still, that indie
Enable, indescribable, inexpressible
something called--loye. Three
words in beautifully raised letters
tell the whole story-"Love For
Ever"
BUNKER HILL
is progressing. To it's already two
stores it has added Two groceries
which are doing a drinking busl-
ness. Petitions for local option
law are already in circulation and
has received many signers. We
think such a law would be fair, as
it would give the people a chance to
permit or prohibit the sale of ardent
spirits in their midst The Rev.
Mr.. Lipscomb Ia Campbellite)
preached a series of sermons here
not long since. We hear him spo-
ken of as a man of ability, power
and pathos, being both able to
please an0 to dazzle. We hope he
will come again. We hear it talked
that a Union church will be built
here, where preachers of all ortho-
dox denominations can rightfully
divide the word.
BETHANY

Wood has located there and will
preach and teach. Bethany High
School is 10 be resuscitated I'M
der his supervision, and we trust
its future viii be as bright if not
brighter than its past.

is progressing slowly but surely.
Mr., d. C.. Sherrell is going TO erect
princely mansion. That spells
something. We would like to know
whose name it spells.

chant, is thinking of changing his
location to Arkansas and himself TO
matrimony. May his cares be
light and his hope be bright
: and the winter of discomfort
become the glorious summer OF
mutual happiness. Blessed is the
bachelor who becomes a benedict,
whose days are passed in the anna
ranthine bowers of ineffable felicity,
