The Arabs of Bolivar.


What great pity that trade does not re-
vive, and what a pity that the loafers on
the South Side of the Square don't do some
thing to revive general business. Not
one in ten of them is ever seen outside the
corporation limits-not even on an ox-wag-
on, not one in seventeen will do lick of
work-not even in grass time, and not one
in twenty three of them will refuse chew
of tobacco or a drink often. If there is
any refusal in the case, it comes from the
other side. In such industries us whiting
on goods boxes, and making fillagree work
with their old barlows, out of some soft
wood, some excel-Phthom Craughfoard,
for instance,-and all are graduates, with
the first honors, of the School of Devilment
l am led to these reflections by an acct
de Mt that occurred last evening in which
these gentry stood forth the pride of their
school, and showed the remarkable sympa-
thy and similarity that exist between the
authOy of all evil and themselves.
a poor orphan,abou the size and appear
anee OF the writer, was quietly and with
domestic thoughts intent, vending his way
homeward, the tolls Of the day being over
when he was set upon by a squad Of these
worthless one of whom st. Ephens, of bless
ed memory,) was suddenly smitten with a
desire to have his memory refreshed in re-
gard to certain parsonage in modern histo-
~. While on the point in question, the
pards OF Tread LIST parenthl were busily en-
gagged in pinning, to him, sundry advertise
ments, in various places, and decorating
him with streamers gay. Where and why
sleepeth Vengeance?
1t is new departure in this vale of tears,
Tor a poor orphan to be made a walking
bulletin board, on which are pasted post
office, barber, druggists and jewellers cards.
And whilst any man would like to go
through the world with flying colors don't
think he would like to go through fash
ionable street in Bolivar with a flag of
truce flying at halfmast.
An imperishahle renown awaits the man
who will convert these Arabs into decent
bod carriers, or oxdrivers, or even postnlas-
tcrs, jewellers, or town sergeants.

Comptroller Gaines has published his
semi-annual apportionment of the school
money. Hardeman on a school population
of 6,777 gets Sl0S5 "a for the half year.
Warrants for this fund will not be issued
until January l, and at which time they
will be cashed. Doubling this amount as
the annual sum coming to Hardenan from
the State and adding the county assessment
ofS3 42S,45 gives S, GOO, Is as the total school
fund of Hardeman. The Comptroller's
scholastic population of Hardeman is S24

Col Thos E Upshaw, c. D. Jemeson,
Asst. Engineer of the NJ. & c. Railroad,
Engineer Clark Of the c. ST. L. n. o. R. r.
accompanied by about twelve helpers
started on Monday for Henderson, equipped
with tents and instruments, from which
point they Will survey a railway line to
the Tennessee river. This project is under
the immediate direction Of the Illinois
Central Company. Ii this survey should
result in a favorable report and if the stock
holders OF the Memphis & Knoxville r. r.
accede to the liberal proposals Of the
Illinois Central Company, the projection Of
a railroad from Bolivar to the Tennessee
river will become a fixed fact in the near
future. The Company has the amplest capt.
tai to push it to completion in a short time.
Bolivar will necessarily be benefited as will
also the entire country along the line. We
await with interest the results of this Sur
veying expedition.

The Jackson Fair.

We have received catalogue of the
Jackson FAIR, which opens to the public on
Tuesday October DIST, and continues through
the week. Their premium list is liberal
and unusually attractive, and no doubt
will draw contestants from all parts of
West Tennessee
This Fair has done much to stimulate
and encourage the agricultural interests, and
the raising Of good stock in this section of
the State, and inasmuch as we have no
Fair here, we hope the people of Hardeman
county will literally panonize the West
Tennessee Fair at Jackson.
The citizens OF jackson and Madison Co.,
are noted for their large hearted hospitality
and kindness, and we hope to see Bolivar
and Hardeman county represented in force
duringt he Fair week at jackson.

OF FIRST
FALL STOCK.

Comes to the front with a larger
and better stock and at lower prices
than it has ever been our pleasure to
offer to the people Ct Hardeman and
adjoining country before. By the
Bolivar house being associated with
houses at jackson and Milan, the
squadron of three are able to sell over
100000 worth of goods per year,
which enables the house to buy all
Goods from Manufacturers in large
quantities, and get all discounts allow
ed the wholesaler, which amount to
from ) to 10 per cent; this enables
the house to sell Goods at retail as
low as the average Retailer can buy
them.
We are selling the lines of Goods
even lower than some wholesale houses
are selling the same Goods. THIS
PRICE LIST tells its own story, gives
prices, and values considered, Will be
hard for any of my competitors to APP
preach, and the prices given none of
them can, with safety, go below.
To the customers who have support
ed the house so literally in the past,
permit US in behalf of Mr.. Mayo to
return thanks, approaching as well
ourselves the patronage extended to
the house, promising you we
will pursue the same course in
the future that we have in
the past, believing that it is best to
press sales at low prices and sell large
quantities of Goods, than hold them
for high prices and do nothing or even
worse fail in business.
