Mr. CHISHOLM of Cato came to this
county in 1S49 and agrees with Mr., ;.
A. Wood as to the character of the
weather of the fall of that year. Mr.

Dempsey's restaurant yesterday even
ing There were IA present and IL was
midnight before the party broke up. An
amusing feature was the response to

toast after the first had to be suggested
by something in the response to the one
preceding. There never We're more hap
py responses as they We're all relieved of
Stiffness 1t was an unusually pleasant
affair
THE editor of The Times-Press has too
exalted an opinion Of his Importance
when he fancies that peoples actions
have reference to him. He works him
self into frenzy because The Pilot Of
fers to return to the county what the
supreme court says was for a publica-
ton not authorized by law, and says it is
slap at him because the decision of the
supreme court likewise makes it obliga-
tory ON him to return money received
for publishing the banking lazy which
was not authorized by law. The Pilot
must keep what does not belong to it SO
as to give countenance to, him, and be-
cause it does not he becomes furious and
gives an exhibition Of childish rage and
petulance. No one will question the
manner in which he will make a return
of what he owes the county and there
will be no exhibition on the part of The
Pilot of bred Indignation over the man
ner of his doing it. The proceeding is
very simple and requires no lengthy edi-
torial in carrying it out
He suggests the proper manner of turn
ing money into the treasury But the
advice is for Others not for himself He
is much more in need of acting upon it
than are those he presumes to instruct.
He criticises the manner in which anoth-
er offers to return money while making
no offer on his own part to make any re-
turn What lofty attitude
His talk of his success as business
competitor is silly, almost babyish. If
he will notice the conduct of other men
he will not find them Dragging of their
success in season and out of season. The
greater their success the more modest
are they, and they never applaud them
selves publicly.
