Bunker Hill.

j. G. Horton had hemorhage Of
the lungs to-day. Gus H. Harris,
Willie Smith and j. G.. King are
convalescent. Jno. w. Tennery
has been suffering from general de
bility, but is greatly improved. W.
w. MeLaurine has been right sick
since the reception of that billet
doGS from the northwest. We hope.
however, the next one may restore
him to perfect health. Thos.. Da-
Wis is just recovering from a dive
into the fore-bay of Murrelrs mill
after bucket of minnows. If he
is determined to forsake the hook
and line, he would do well to pro-
cure a diving bell. He might be
greatly advanced in his daring
feats if Adam 4 Paw Davis would
exercise him occasionally on the
trapeze.
Death has recently visited our
vicininity and claimed for his vic
tins Mrs. Daniel Tucker and Mrs.
Geo. Summers.
Cal. Wright, coPd, has fully
tested the medicinal properties of
spirits of turpentine. His running
reminded rs of the running of
"Ahimaaz the son of Zadock."
However, the tidings where of a
different nature. w. f. Watson is
reported as actually riding into
Bunker Hill upon a saddle, and
wearing off fine scissor tail coat
purchased of j. G. King. Holland
d Butler have been complaining of
much ennui on account of oyer-e X
ertion, carrying that last lot of hogs.
The two hogs became badly STAN
peded several times, but being
equipped with good whips, shep-
herd dogs and fast horses, and be-
ing expert riders, they made full
delivery, coming back as cheerful
as two Chesterfield Virginians." {
We hear that Frank Mays of Pros
pect, who has been scratching feas
and knocking mosquitoes, withdrew
from the Florida contest and re-
treated back to old Giles, who was
proud to slap and caress her prodi-
gal child. We hope when he comes
Town, that he will slip in that fish {
ale" slow and easy like a frog
for fear he may make {
'hipwreck of our credulity. s
Ed. w. McLaurine of Bunker L
Hill will become a candidate be-
ore the honorable county court for t
he Office of cotton weigher. We t
lave only to say, that more scru- v
,ulous, exact man could not be
Ound in the state. Lewis King
alls heir to the flowers and waste
'aper, while the other b'hoys gets
he "April nonsense" q q
j. F. Holt speaks of starting
o market with his shoat as soon as
e can procure lot of hands, some b
hepherd dogs, a bull-whip and a c.
Tarrior steed. F. w. Smith has re- n
umed his fruit tree vocation. Gus n
Jack and j. w Davis are follow
lg in the wake of Adam 4 Paw
)avis and Eph. Bass, with those
old horns, which is a
horn in the flesh to the citizens of
ais lovely dell, who would almost
) soon hear their doleful death
nell. Gus Pack is the happy re-
pient of the neatest watch pocket .,
ltant-presonted 1 suppose by %
is "Juice-Spicy." That cheap
lirt which j. w. Davis bought in
ulaski lasted him nearly home
e ought to have taken for 2 5 -
nts and they would probably '0
i've lasted him home.
We have passed one week
Ithout a mad dog ''to modest or
axe us afraid" They have not
ard kof the adjournment, very
rely, of our legislature. We sug-
st that the governor halloo them
, again and keep them in close
ssion until the dogs are removed.
Esq. j. NJ. Bass and wife and
arlington Bass started last Mon
y to Missouri to visit their rela-
res.
One of the 2Oth's best old bach
DIS, William McMurry, deserted
e ranks Of single miserableness, ~
tering the pancake and 'lasses de- -
of cennubial and
rennial bliss. He and the lovely
dow, Mrs. Martha Watson, "are
} longer twain but one" May
ey realize that which Juan Ponce
Leon searched and longcd for so
ligently We wish we had taken IA,
ne and written a short article, Pl
1t too late now, as said j. w. Da: piI
s on a memorable occasion. We Sz'
1uld just say to Mr.. "Cosmopoli "
NJ that we prefer to keep the re-
ldiators of the state debt, and
ant to Texas such as she al
ady has-repudiators of individ I
Il debts. We don't mean quite
of course. We except as many iuI
escaped from the city of Sodom
ID Gomorah.
