Ep1ToRs CITIZEN
write you the morning ofthe first day
of the New Year, hoping you long life,
usefulness and happiness. At this sea
son nearly everyone intends to turn
over new leaf' and we trust that those
who propose to do better this year than
ever before will be enabled to carry out
their good intentions, as there is much
need of improvement in manners and
morals We had the most quiet Christ
mas NE have ever seen. rue, the
young folks had merry time and there
were the usual turkey, fruit cake and
chicken fxens" ofthe time of year, but
the boisterous features were banished.
There were friendly knock-deWn or
two and few whose Iocomotion was
somewhat IMPAIRED but all was. merry
IS marriage bell z andno calls for the
coroner.
We can't inform you the exact time the
cars will commence running through but
weslearn it will be Dsooh.p
A prominent r. r. man informed us
chat the road from Paint. Rock to Knox
would be commenced at an early day.
The weather for the last week has
Teen SO fine that vegetation and birds
have put in a spring appearance and
hose having Hotels and boarding
houses have opened again for Summer
boarder5.s Gay equipages are seen on our
streets and we will soon have goodIy
number of visitors. People are finding
o the attractive features Of our city
aud are availing themselves of our mod
|erate terms of fboard.
The guests of the Virginia House on
ednesday night were treated to a de-
ightful serenade by our city string band
which is composed of some of our most
clever young men. Ii music is the food
of love" all we have to say is in the Lam
gua9c Of MeDuf- play on.
AS some enquiries come to usin regard
to Gray & Thackson's whereaho We
will inform .all that Mr.. Gray is in
Florida look ing after the interests of his
house, and Mr., Thackson is in Concord,
N. G., we presume. looking after his own
interests.
Business is quito dull here now, with
the exception of the Hotels, and they
are full, and the Proprietors getting fat
and saucy.
The f5x.hunters here are having a
good time, and foxes are being tfinned
out rapidly. Plenty of squirrels and

with its sjustp roportion of good and
bad.
Lord Salisbury has his eldestson,
