The new postal cards, which
will shortly he printed, are two
sizes-an idea of the postmaster
general-the bigger ones, which
have twice the area of the present
postal cards, being intended for
business communication that can
not very well be crowded, and for
other purposes demanding space.
Both kinds have in the right-hand
corner, instead of the representa-
tion of a stamp, small portrait of
General Grant.
Some smart Republicans claim
that the Democrats made an awful
mistake when they nominated
DUNCAN, and failed to nominate
Hysell. Well, these Republicans
think they know it all, but if the
Democrats had nominated Hysell,
these same smart Republicans,
would say it was mistake, and
that it ought to have been DUNCAN,
or somebody else, and so on. The
Democrats did not make the nom-
ination to please Republicans.
-Jno w. Ball an esteemed and
well-known citizen of this county
died last Monday morning at his
home with Mr.. and Mrs. Turner,
ID miles south of town who have
kindly cared for the old man for
several years past. He was about
Y years old. He left considerable
property amounting perhapsto $780,
600 or more. We understand he
willed the greater portion Of it to a
grand daughter named Ellis, but
also made substantial legacies to
several other persons. He named
Col. Weldy as his Executor, be-
tween whom and Mr.. Ball there
always existed the utmost good
feeling, confidence and friendship,
and intimate business relations.
The funeral took place Tuesday
after noon from his home, Rev.
Williams officiating, and was one
of the most largely attended funer-
ais that ever took place in this
locality.

Archaeological Society with a talk
upon the "DTound Builders" Dr..

and instructive lectures upon the
Anatomy and Physiology of man.
Many thanks are due to the "brief-
less barrister," o. w. III. Wright
for his enlightening information
in regard to School Laws. Alto
gether this course has eXcelled any
other put before the Hooking Co.,
teachers, and we are sorry indeed
that SO few availed themselves of
such fine opportunities.
