Death came unexpected, but ne'er found
her sleep,
There was oil in her lamp when she fell at

All burning and bright when the monster

Now the battle is over. and the victory won,
Her joys are eternal, and bright is her
crown,
To her mansion of light, she has now entered

She Is free from temptation, from sorrow
We miss thee, dear Ella, but our loss is thy

Will shout halleluja's on Canaan's bright

town for what you want. We have been
around to all the stores, looking at the new
{ ods and we say without hesitation aud
without fear of contradiction that Union ha,
never before seen such quantity and
variety of nice goods at such reasonable
prices. Some Of The stores have had their
goods beautifully displayed for several days
and others are just opening up good. Every
train brings loads Of boxes filed with dry
goods. Read the advertisements and then 90

well afford TO pay all admission fee just to

But that is not necessary, as they are all

out in n char began 10 relate all the special
ills that his own particular flesh hal been

quite an expert at the business. By reason
Of somebody else's fault however as his tale
went, he hal lost his job and had been out
of work quite while. lie told of a good
many places that he bad been to looking for
work, but there was none TO be found any
where. He had been to several places in
North Caroline, had teen to Grceuvilc and
Spartanburg and now found himself here
without work; hungry and without food.
Well, VIC had no work for him, but we could

of the printers Failing there he came into
the editors office and in spite of all VIC
could do come near making himself out an
old friend of cur family. Such consumate
check we have never before seen in a
journeyman. Leaving, he begged us for a

and adroituess and his refreshing audacity,
we could not refuse. After he left we learn
cd that his pi,iful petitions had % cents

also he endeavored to buy liquor, but being
