excitement, the enteries were Clay

heats.
SO our third annual Fair was 8
great success; the daily attendance
averaging 800, with fine weather, 8

A Jack by Mail.

We are informed by a friend of
ours that a few weeks ago Mr.. T..
who is an extensive planter and
merchant, and lives near Wilson La.
concluded that he would try his hand
at raising mules. Having quite a
number of mares on hand the next
step was to purchase Jack.
After inquiring, he found tha' he
could purchase one of the animals
from Mr.. R.-living on Percys Creek
Mississippi, for 500. The price
was agreed on and I. sent our in
former to Woodville after him. After
a tustle and drag of about 10 hours
he succeeded IN getting the Jack to
Mr.. rs. little after dark, when
the following conversation took place;
Got back Smith.
Yes.
Where is the Jack.
There he is.
Where.
Right there! Look do,on and you
will see him.
Hallelugahl You call that
Jack.
That sir is 20 lb Portoriceo Jack,
and they sell by the pound, So 90
per pound.
Why the devil didn't he send him
by mail, and save me the trouble of
sending two grown men after that
thing.
Well Sir, 7 applied to the Post
Master but the mail sack was full of
campaign documents and for fear of
an explosion he said he would not
like to mix them.
Turn him in the yard and in the
morning | will get my glasses and
perhaps can see him. By daylight
the next morning T. was up looking
for the Jack, but he could not be
found.
Well Smith that thing is gone, you
had better put the dogs on his track
and catch him.
Did you look under the house
said Smith!
Under what!
Under the house?
Who in the thunder would think of
looking under the house for Jack.
Well stoop down here. There he
stands as bold as julius Cesar.
Smith you go under there and pull
that thing out, put him IN an envel-
ope, direct it to Mr. R. Percys
Creek Miss. and mail at once. Re
quest yhe man l bought him Of to
