from her and in few moments the house

We learn that fire occurred at Wilson's
Mill yesterday morning about o'clock, de-
stroyius about hundred thousand feet OF
lumber, two fat cars loaded with lumber,
an empty box cur, and a part Of the rail
road track The fire WAS accidental, and
originated from the slab-pile. The through

We have been informed by reliable gen
tleman from Sumter that Ferdinand Lewis
store was crowded all day with customers
last Saturday, and that he sold sixteen ss0c
dresses on that day. Is it any wonder when

The TINES is widely circulated, and 1t pays
