get smack at your saccharine lus-
ciousness."
Some kissing and squeezing were
INDUCED in by a certain couple

green. We wont call any names but
would advise them to be more careful,
that is if they don't wish it known.
We were handed last week a full
grown cotton boil, about to open,
which was pulled on the farm Of Mr..
Pat Bell on the goth. Who can beat
this? Mr.. Bell is good farmer and
for several years he has been ahead
of all the cotton growers.
A young man. age 25, strictly tenn
perate and moral, earning a good
salary, wishes to correspond with
young lady Of refinement with a view
to matrimony. She must be accom-
plished and of a gentle, loving dis
position. Address, "SINCERITY,"
Care of FISHERMAN & FARMER.
On Saturday last a gentleman. OF
being presented bill for his sub
scription to the FISHERMAN & FARM
Err, refused to pay for his paper, but
being informed by our editor what
the newspaper laws were and that if
he did not settle he would doubtless
be made to do so, paid his little
account at once,
"Why can't we have a Military
Company" has been the genera!
topic in Edenton for several days
Boys, now is the time to start, while
things are warm. All who are inter
ested, are requested TO meet at the
Court House Tuesday, 31st, at 8 80

Once more we would like to call
the attention of our readers to the
of scattering plenty OF
lime around the premises, and especi-
ally on the rubbish piles, during tins
season Of the year. The old adags
that the free use of lime saves 8 doe
5or's bin is as true as gospel, and Il
you wish to drive malaria away, lime
is the thing to do it with.
On Sunday evening last Emma c.. |

We enjoyed on Wednesday treat
IF six large bottles Of cold beer, put
Up at the bottling establishment OF
Iessrs. Moore q Wilson, which was
delicious. Drink and be merry
hey said, and we did so. We con
,ratulate this new enterprise upon
he wonderful success it has met with
ince it's establishment, and bespeak
or it the patronage OF all the citizens
# Edenton. Beer only sc per hottie
II SOC per dozen. Drink it and get
at; it's a splendid tonic.
We would advise all those who
an to visit Nays Head this season
there is no finer and more healthtul
,lace on the whole Eastern Coast
han this favorite resort, as far rs
atural beauty goes. The sound and
urf bathing, fishing, boating and
uniting, are attractions familiar to
veryone. Our clever friend, Mr..
\. E. Jacobs has everything there in
No. I style. Those who visit the
otel can rest assured of royal
God time.
We regret to chronicle the serious
nd painful accident with which
faster F. c. Mitchell met with while
ding to the Railroad depot on yes
erday. It seems that he was riding
is Bycicle at full speed and was
tipped, which caused him to receive
heavy shock and a dislocated arm.
It this writing he is suffering much
ain, but the doctors say be will soon
,cover. The deepest sympathy of
le FISHERMAN s. FARMER we extend a.,
9th to him and his parents, with a
one of q sDeedy recovery.
