OUR DEVILS CORNER.


To the Bridgeport Rhymster.
You sit or the foot hills of lofty Par
nassus
And make ugly faces and wickedly
"sass" us
Till truly tbs hard to decide which
the worse is,
Your transcendent cheek or the style
Of your verses;
For the breath of your Muse has the
flavor of onions,
And your poetic feet seem afflicted
with bunions,
And so you go hobbling along
through each dirty
With a weak, wobbly limp that
arouses our pity.
If you'll list to the Satanic bard of
Sequachee
Your work in the future will not be
SO botchy.
Mix an ounce and a drachm of the
tlncture OF metre
With Of a scruple Of rhythm to make
it seem sweeter
And full quart OF rhyme, give the
whole a good shaking
And take big swig every morn on
awaking.
Now follow, dear "Hobo," these sim
pie directions,
And you'll cease to bring shame to
your friends and connections
And perhaps in the end you may
rise to the level
OF Byron and Moore and
Yours truly,
THE DEVIL.

FAMOUS FREMONT.

The Witty Weaving of Names
and Facts into Interests
ing History of the Town
by Our Regular Correspond
ent That Will Not Fail to
Interest and Instruct Our
Readers.
Dear Argus:-It is barely pos
sible that you may forget our ex-
istance if we do not occasionally
blow our horn, and this we may
do possibly to the best advantage
by a weekly letter to the ARGUS.
Sometimes we r stuck in the
mud, sometimes showed under,
but withal, we do not feel that we
are of little Importance as we see
many bales of cotton finding their
way to our market, and our cotton
yard teeming with the f1eecy sta
pie.
Judging from tie number of
Barnes in town one would think
we might have here a great to-
bacco market.
Our place has varied attractions
in the different Wards.
At the South-all Is business
regularity and precision among
other enterprises the Smith plies
his calling, and you may often
see Persons Headen that way.
We r not wanting in a sense
of the beautiful for Flowers -four
ish all around.
There are pleasant Fields and
smiling waters, where our young
people with rods and Hooks may
try their luck which, strange to
say, never seems to result in any
great danger to the finny tribe, OF
even in any fish story for the pub
lie ear.
OF birds we have As-cock,
whose clarion call at early morn
is echoed by the Cox, cocks over
the way until the village is astir.
But these Industrious creatures
are rivaled by the gorgeous Peo-
cock, that bird of the gods, which
is perhaps not yet in favor with
Argus, but which we claim, with
pride.
The Best of all is we have a
Bard-in town, and if that be not
sufficient it were VAIN, in this
Short letter, to try to establish
our claim to distinction.
Much more might be said about
our stores, our fourishing school,
which has on its roll above a hun
dred pupils, and about other in
terests, but if we let the Balance
remain for some future day, it
may be as we'll; for if all our at
fractions were enumerated at once
there might be such a rush of i'm
migration to our town as we might
not be able to sustain. BEE.

MT. OLIVE MOVING.
The Town is ON a Building Boom
That is Evidence of Substan
tial Progress and Prosperity.

The Efforts of our enterprising
citizens are being rewarded al
last,and slowly but surely is there
dawning a new era for our quiei
little town. While others have
been making much ado abou,
nothing, Mt. Olive has been
steadily growing and adding to
her population and Industrial de-
velopment from time to time.
To day on u principal streets
tall brick buildings mark the
spot where a short while ago
unsightly single story wooden
buildings had stood for years.
Beautiful residences Of modern
design are nearing completion in
different parts of the town. The
little railroad station of a few
years ago has grown to such size
and Importance that it has at
tracted men of means to our
midst who visit US regularly from
season to season to purchase the
great quantities of the feecy
staple that is unloaded on this
market. 1t is no idle boast to
claim to be the business place of
prominence on the line, of the w,
& w. r. r. between Wilmington
and Goldsboro.
Just now extensive prepare
tlons are being made toward
truck planting. It is understood
that the Atlantic Coast Line
will give US faster freights dur
ing the coming season than ever
before, and this fact is encourag
ing plan aers to pay more atten-
ton to this part of their crops.
Mr.. r, j. Switzerland is moy
ing his stock of general mer-
chandise into his handsome new
brick store to-day. The store is
situated on the principal street
In town and is a building to which
all our citizens can point with
pride.
Workmen are busily engaged
on the brick business house of
Mr.. E. J. Martin and il is in
tended to have it completed by
January lSt.
The brick building fever seems
To be contagious. It IS now ru-
mored that Mr.. Knowles will re-
move his large wooden store
house from its present site and
erect thereon a substantial brick
structure that will be an orna
ment TO the town. Several other
building projects have been
mentioned, and, ii we are to Judge
the future by the past few
month, We will soon have a solid
block or brick business houses.
All this exhibits a condition Of
prosperity that is the result of
years of hard labor and substan-
tfates the claim made in the be
ginning of this, communication,
that a new era is dawning on our
quiet little town.
PROGRESS.

night of last week Mrs. R.. c.
Newson, of Lanes Creek town
ship, over lay her little three
months old babe, while she slept,
and when she awoke she found
the baby dead. Mr.. William
Perry, ex-clerk of the court OF
Lancaster county, S. c., COM
mltted suicide yesterday by
drowning. Nc reason for the rash
act is given: He was very popu-
lar, of a cheerful disposition, and
his untimely death is a great
shock to his host of friends. He
was about forty~tiye years old.
-Four of the officers sworn in
Monday were negroes. It was
thought that the colored con-
stable of Jackson township would
not qualify, but he came up With
bis bond and took the oath of
Office and is row a full fedged
officer. THE recent snow
came very near exterminating
the rabbits. Hundreds of them
were killed. The snow was SO
deep that they could not run and
the small boy was in all his glory
hunting them and catching them
alive. Oneman came into town
last Friday evening with forty
live rabbits in a box.
