Letter From Browns Store.


Mr.. EDrrou Friend "Dick" must be in n
bad fix, for nothing to have been done to him.
1t is said that n certain king once caught fy
which for some time had been crawling on his
face while he, (the kiny) wished TO move ON In
the seven tenor of his way" in nap. Ine
king held the fly out of his ~iUdow, thought
how he was uurt 10 urssrcr ':ias-e,- aL
him pitifuy said: al coud dcvour you, but
there's room enough in the porid for go" and
me" and turning him loose said, "go." "Dick"
can make the application.
Immediately following Mr.. Litlejohn's Exhi
bition, of which already you have had an ac-
count, Rev. J. Z. Counts the pastor, assisted by
Rev J. b. Wilson, held interesting meeting
nt Asbury Chapel for four days, which was ami
mating to the members of the Church.
Prof. Ilumphrics of Spartanhurg County, has
recently organized singing class in this com
munty, which we trust will greatly improve
the congregational singing in the churches.
The Union County Teachers Convention was
held at Ell Bethel Church on the 10Th and 10Th
inst, an account of which, the Secretary has
given you.
| We learn this morning that the bridge on
! Pacolet at Grindle Shoals gave way last night,
which is quits calamity to this part of tho
County. We hope, however, that it will soon be
fitted up again.
Crops arc much improved by the late rains,
and we now have hope Of pretty fair yields
Cotton has grown very rapidly and looks we'll
perhaps promises better yield than will be
realized, as there is more stalk than bolls.
Work has been begun on the new school
house at old Mt Morah, near sir. VIM. Jones
and it is an improvement that has been much
needed in that community.
Apologies usually serve as Introduction, but
| will close with one. My silence FOR so long
has been owing to circumstances over which /
have had no control, and which need not here
be mentioned OCCASIONAL.

The Cotton Crop.


We took much pains OF Moalay Inst to On
quirc of the Farmers who were in town. as 10
the true condition Of the cotton crop, and al.
MOST every one told US that they could not pos.

said they would not make that. The weed has
grown rapidly since the rains, but has not pat
Oh fruit. Many inform that very large
numbcy "f good sized stalks did not have more
than four bOl!s on them, with q few blooms and
no squares. The weed looks well anil n person
passing along the road would say the crop was
fine ; but if they were to 80 into the field and
examine it, they would find that appearances
were very deceptive. We know this to he The
case in n patch within the corporate limits Of
this town. Not only are the hol!s scarce hut

Fine House Painting.

1t is always pleasure to us to be able TO
commcnd the work Of gool mechanic or arii-

ever we feel justified in doing 50. In nothing
can there he more deception piaciiccd and imfc
ri"r work covered up than in House Painting
as such work on many nf the houses in Union
gives unlnistahablc proof. Cheap material ard
bad work in painting house is the worst kind
Of economy and soon shows. We are led to
these remarks by the superior painting upon
Mr.. y. r. Stokes house. Main Street by
Mr.. !. W. Miller, which We think IS one of the
very best jobs in town. The colors on the out :
side show great taste and are honestly put on.
while the walnut and oak gvaining on the wooi-
work of the inside proves Mr.. Miller 10 bc n
fist class workman. We doubt much if better
work can be found in the largest cities. and we
believe it will stand the test Of time.
