Aberdeen, July 10, 1883.

Mrs. Z. X. SHARKEY, who is, we
believe, native Mississippian, an
accomplished writer and author OF
several most interesting works Of
fiction, was among the welcome Wis
itors to Aberdeen on Friday. She is
regular correspondent of a number
of Southern metropolitan journals and
contributor to as many of the Eastern
standard Magazines, and, BY the
way, a most pleasant and amiable
lady. The immediate occasion of
her visit to this city was to place on
sale her last work, "MATE TO NATE
a novel of great merit and thrilling
interest, which may be hereafter II
tanned at the book store of II. q.
Buchanan g. Co. AS a general rule
in this section the works of Southern
authors, while possessing in many in
stances very superior merit,are pass
ed by and those of Northern or for
eign residence preferred, but we
hope that those who are stocking
their libraries and others in search of
choice literature, will not fail to Sc
cure a copy of Mrs. Sharkey's "Mate
to Mate" We may have something
to say of this volume in the future.

infested the place and made the
lives of wives and mothers an un-

of an indignant patron. Whenever
the latter veutured to suggest that
the spring chicken was rather tough,
or that the roast beef must have been
cut from the cows hoofs, he was di-
rectly told that he was entirely 'too

The cook was Scotch woman and
used snuff. He borrowed all she had
sprinkled It literally over the crow,
gave it another simmer, and then TAX

his host, saying as he sat it down,
Now, my dear sir, you have said q
