Several weeks have elapsed since your
correspondent has contributed word to

lack of news that would be likely to inter
est the public. Having failed by thus
waiting l will now look back and review
the past, taking in the present and what
we expect may happen in the near future.
Political excitement with logic on both
sides takes the lead, but was postponed
one-half hour a few days since on account
of a misunderstanding between two local
pugilists about trifiing matter.in Mills

ton to the front of his store by way Of
an extension.

on farm property. He stands charged
with obtaining 81, 800 on two tracts of land
in this county, by forging the signature of
the supposed owners, and also forging the
signature of G. 8. Martin, who was then
register of deeds, to receipts for the papers.
Kerns came here some two years ago and
by his pleasant address and sociable nature
soon made his way into the best of society
of our city. He was noted for his CONVEX
eational powers and was the central figure
in almost any gathering. Mr.. Kerns' father
and mother live here and are highly respect
ed by their acquaintance.
