wished to know if I had the

merely wished to know if I had the requisite drugs, and would not put one to the inconvenience of lighting lamp to read a prescription. Next he con. tradicts this statement and says Scott fails to understand why I did not procure a prescription from Dr Beauchamp before leaving Forrest City" and further states that the Med. cine was entirely forgotten until he had gone some distance from town Now it scarcely seems possible that any one afflicted with so loathsome and tormenting a disease as the itch (such Mir. Hicks claims to be his annoying ailmentl could be so totally oblivious to the highly irritating sensation usual ly accompanying this cutaneous disease, as not to be most forcibly reminded of the immediate necessity of this healing balm, to the use of which he has so long been addicted.
 To the people of Poplar Grove, as can be easily proven, he explains that he presented his prescription at Hin tons drug store, but could not get it filled from the fact that the last bottle of Cantharides had previously been drained of its contents. When Dr. Beauchamp prescribed Cantharides for Mir. Hicks it was Cantharides IN A COMPOUND and not Cantharides ALONE.
 Granting myself the same privilege Mir. Hicks has taken, and speaking from chronological standpoint, one would naturally infer that certain or gan were as largely developed on the eranium of Mir. Hicks that it should cause him to resort to the use of Can tharides to accomplish his hellish de- signs, since it has become so evident as to his intentions.
 In regard to the rediculous compari- son made by Mir, Hicks of being in- fested with vermin, it is hardly neces- sary to say there exists vast differ ence in ''having a superabundance of rats" and in having intrusted to the care of an interruptions villain, the pure and innocent daughters of one's s bosom friends.
 Let MT. Hicks and the public at large, fully understand that whatever may be the consequence of this con- troversy, into which l have been so reluctantly drawn is due to his own folly and not to any spirit of virulence, freak of enmity, or malignant inten- tions on my part, for with me it has been compulsory.
 l will conclude my remarks by leav- ing to the general public as to whether or not MT. Hicks had in view any ille- gitimate motive when making his ap- plication for CANTHARIDES.
 Respectfully,
 JAMES l.. SCoTT.

THAT ANALYSIS.

The rambling, incoherent statements, of MT. Hicks, published in last Satur- days issue of THE TIMES, styled by the writer "An Analysis" is in sub- stance nothing more or less than let ter of criticism and abuse, clothed in the most highly embellished and am biguous language, and with the excep- tion of few sarcastic and unsuccess- ful attempts at witticism, scarcely touches at all the subject under dis. cussion.
 MT, Hicks criticises, with the strict est rigidity, the orthography, phrase ology, and punctuation of what he has chosen to call "The ignorant twaddle of one James l.. Scott" As to the atrocious crime of being ignorant. plead guilty but feel far from being as ignorant as probably MT. Hicks deemed me, when trying to obtain oi me a drug to be used for purpose that can we'll be imagined. Finding him. self surrounded by the most over whelming and damning evidence of | his guilty intentions, he then gushes forth with tirade of unmerited abuse such as would bring blush of shame tc the foulest fiend, the most reeking degraded specimen of depravity, ever consigned to the deepest pit of the in- fernal regions. And this he calls vim dication.
 MT. Hicks assertion that it was through fear of the "civil law" and not due to feeling of compassion that caused me to make any explanation, is another of those fals ehoods, which he seems so capable of concocting. When threatened with the law, insisted or his taking any legal proceedings he might choose; changing his tactics, he appealed to me in the name of an un sullied honor hence my explanation of May 1st. The various reasons given by MT. Hicks for failing to produce prescription at the time of calling fol Cantharides, are too numerous and in- consistent to be readily believed; he offers three seperate and distinct ex plantations of the affair. In his letter of May 7th he argues that it was SC dark at the time of calling for the drug and he having so strong an aversion tt putting people to unnecessary trouble

A Wonsan's Discovery.

Another wonderful discovery has been made and that too by lady in this county. Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessa ntly and could not sleep. She bought of us a bottle of Dr. Kings New Discovery for Consumption and was so much relieved on taking first dose that she slept all night and with one bottle has been mi- raculously cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz.n Thus write w. c. Ham, rick & O., of Shelby N. C.-Get free trial bottle al C. F. Hinton's Drug Store.

ONE half prominent republican pa- per says that the democrats will re- nominate Cleveland because he is the strongest man they have, except Jeff Davis. Such talk as this will only make the people love Jeff all the more What is termed the collar of the $. s. was never more willingly worn by any people on earth than those Of the south. It is a good, well-fitting collar an emblem of lasting brotherhood that will be worn as long as true south ern blood courses the veins of true southern men. Jeff is safely esconced in the hearts of his countrymen, and all the venom thrown by his enemies can't bring him out.
