1t will be remembered that some time in
June last We published article in which we
held the opinion that many of those who have
been receiving outPensions from the county
were not objects of charity, but that this priv.
iege bad been much abused and was the source
Of much un unnecessary expense 10 our tax paye
We also suggested that the outpension list, as
at present made up, be abolished entirely and
be rem de anew by the commissioners, suit
jecting all applicants 10 personal examna-
ton, in order that this charity might be pro-
perly and deservlngly bestowed. Acting on
this article The trustees of the poor, al recent
meeting, authorized the publication OF The out
pension list in order that it might be brough,
to the attention of the Tax payers. and il IL was
found that any who not deserving o char
ity were rrc-iving this bounty, on The com

much pleased with the progress il Is making

but is coming up beautifully all over the fields
and seems to be strong and hardy. We hope
this may b. the case with all that is now sown,

nearly run out ana who has been a close Oh
server for over half a century, who informed
us that the coming winter will be an unusually
severe one. with plenty of ice and snow. and is
likely to set in earlier than usual for some
years past. He says be has watched the corn
husks for many years and never knew it to fail
in a single instance, that when the husks were
unusually thick, the winter would be a very
severe one. This season, he says, the husks
are thicker than be ever saw them, and very
severe winter is in prospect.

Pleasant Hop.

Another pleasant and social dance was en-
loved in the pavilio On at Chapel Point on Thurs
day evening Of last week. given by The young
ladies as ii return compliment to the gentlemen
for the one they gave at the same place several
weeks ago The atf ,ir WAS in every respect
equal to the last, save, perhaps, in the matter
of music, whi, n on this occasion was furnished
by colored band from B,ltmore, and did not
quite come up to the standard of that furnished
by Prof Schroeder. Nearly every section or
the county was represented, and the galaxy OF
beauty, whose bright faces and laughing ey yes
graced the occasion, was worthy oil our county
aud lent cha, m and pleasan,ness TO the re-
cherche dance that was hard to excel. The
ladies were attired in handsome and tasteful
toilets, many OF them strikingly so, and all OF
them were bellies or so nearly so as TO render il
nsidious to make Il distinction. The affair
was in the hands OF IL competent and energetic
committee OF ladies, and to them all credit aud
praise is due for the unqualified and enjoyable
success of the hop. We hope this may be only
the beg inning of a series OF dances ut this place
as the affairs are too pleasant and enjoyable TO
be allowed to drop into ''ianocuous desuetude,
and the gentlemen should now feel it incumbent
upon them to give the ladies one, if possible
even more pleasant than the last Among

Deed of Assignment.

P Reed Wills, who for several years past
has been carrying the business of merchandise,
b 1tel and livery at Cox's Station, flied deed
of assig ment in the clerks office here on Tues
day with Adrian Posey as trustee. The failure
of Mr. Wills has caused much surprise among &
bis friends in the county as it was generally
supposed that his business at Co1s was IN a
healthy and thriving condition, and much
sympathy has been expressed for HIM in his
present EN- barrassment. The immediate cause
Of the failure is said 10 be owing 10 the inability
of those farmers and others, whom he was car
rsing ou his books, 10 meet their obligations
in consequence of the depression in the market
for all farm products. Ii is currently reported
that Mr. WilIs's assets will pay large per
cent on his liabilities and that his creditors
will lose but little by the assignment. VIC
have also heard that efDrts are being made TO
effect 4 compro mise with the creditors so that
the business may continue, rs Mr.. Wills thinks
that with such udul gence for a short time be
will be able 10 raise him.elt out of the present
embarrassment Mr. Wills is an active and
energetic business man and We hope he will be
able to effect such settlement as will enable
him 10 again establish him>elf on his feet.
