Why seryia Must Fight.

The Posts London special says: The
Seryinn army is moving toward Sofia.
A Bulgarian envoy gives the reasons
why the Scrvians are about attacking
Bulgaria: The first iE, that the powers
have practically ngreed upon n Bulgn-
rian Union and will not give Servia
anything out Of Bulgaria. The second
il, that II anything il given out of Bull
garia, Prince Alexander would greatly
lose prestige among his subjects. This,
Austria is most anxious to avoid. as any
successor 10 Alexander would be n Rus
sian agent. Austria will bring - pres
sure upon King Milan 10 prevent this.
The third reason IL, there is undoubted-
ly MI agreement between Greece aud
Scrvin. but II Servia attacks Bulgaria,
Greece will be lcft alone to cope with
Turkey, which she liz utterly unable 10
do. Therefore, tho envoy said, the mo.
ment Sofa Is attacked the present Union
will become an intimate fusion Of the
two countries. But King Milan must
fight or lose his throne. lie applied TO
Austria for advice and was told hc
might motalize his army. Having done
that. he cannot stop. The conclusion
IL, that the present movement Is n blind
10 conceal q sudden attack upon Tur.
key. The envoy believed that war Is
inevitable, aud that Turkey would be
left by the powers t. fight it out alone.

Mr.. Felix Beloque. representing
FlashpolIer & Co., New Orleans

W. W. Edwards, Esq, returned

Mr.. Albert Mouisset, formerly Of

paid us a pleasant visit last Wednes.

Mr.. Isaac Wise, a commission
merchant of the city Of New Orleans,
was in town during the week, look.
ing in good spirits.
Mr.. Morris Reiss, who represents
the firm Of Richardson & Co., New
Orleans, paid Abbeville a visit this
week on business for that firm.
Mr.. A. Megnier, formerly editor
and proprietor Of the Country Visi

Gen. Geo. B. Mcclellan.

Another OF the principal actors in
the bloody drama enacted twenty-five
years ago has gone to his FINAL &C.
count. OF all whose convictions OF
duty led them to wage war against
the South, we believe Gen. McClel.
Ian to have been the most noble. A
far better soldier than Gen. Grant,
he might to day have occupied the
niche in our country's history now
filled by him whose funeral obse-
quies were so lately and so magni.
6cently celebrated. But one obsta-
Gle was 10 his way, he disagreed
with the party in power in point of
politics. We sincerely say peace to
his ashes.

More Stores Needed.

The great want Of this couu try is
more stores for the employment Of
the thousands Of talented young
men, who like the man in the Scrip
lures, can not beg, and are ashamed
10 dig. These young men command
our sympathy. They sit around the
street corners of the thousands Of
towns and villages and wear out the
seats of their breeches in abject
misery, because there are not enough
stores for them to clerk in. The
country does not need farmers, and
mechinists, and blacksmiths, and
whcelwrights, and shoemakers and
ditchers, and minors, and all sorts
of mechanics. 1t needs stores in
which young men car get employ
ment and part their hair in the mid.

handkerchiefs and dress nicely, aud
brush their hair as often as they
please, and stay in the shade all day

is what our country needs-storcs
