insure liberal patronage from all over tho

tho valley and conduct dury farm, poultry
yard and also cultivate vegetables, no could
find sale for cvcry thing Of tho kind ho
could raiso in ono season at splendid
prices.

printing from Macon and adjacent counties
would amount to no little.

The Chinese Astronomers aro the most

the world twins, triplcts and mult(orms.
low much truth there is in the prophecies Of
these Celestial philosophers We cannot say;
but America is now mourning for her Chief
Magistrate. and no less than six twins have
been born in this immediate section recently.
