Slowly Coming.

Eight months ago we started anew in business at Morganton,
at the bottom Of the ladder, and it seemed that some of the big
fish would swallow us whether or not; but we managed to keep
our head above water and are slowly coming to the front, and
we account for it from the fact that we give full is ounces for
a pound, don't sand our sugar or water our kerosene, nor tale
our flour; besides we have hundreds of trends in this county,
all things being equal, who come to see US when they are in
need of anything in our line.
We have a better line Of Family Groceries, Fancy Confec-
tons, Cigars, Smoking Tobacco and Tropical Fruits than ever
before, and we don't intend to be undersold. We also pay the
highest cash price for all marketable Country Produce; so if
you don't want goods we will pay you cash.
And now, without further comment, it goes without saying.
when you are in town you will be certain to find our store

but he was warned by tho oppos-

therefore could not qualify. Mr..
Larson consulted . lawyer, after
which, he qualified. We learned
that Mr.. Larson, who has already
served a term as member OF the

is not q citizen, and that afidavits
will be made against him for per-

NAEAOS0 ~ oSOAA VA
London, Sunday, Jan. 7.-While
during the last week there>>has been
plenty OF excitement over the war news
from various seats Of military opera
tions, it was preserved for last night to
bring what is, in Its possibilities, prob
ably the most important tilings Of
the seven days.
During all day yesterday there was
a marked absspos of news from South
Africa, and London vanders Of newspa-
pers were at their wits ends for line
to shout out to attract the attention Of
the public.
1t was not till practically eVerybedy
had gone to bed that bulletin was is
sued by the War Office in the shape Of
an exceedingly brief dispatch, from
General White, saying that the Beers
in considerable force. whatever that
may mean, had made an attack on
his forces at Caesars Camp at an
early hour yesterday morning, and
had been everywhere repulsed No
further details are yet to hand.
General French has not bsen long IN
taking advantage of the resnforoe-
ments which he received at dawn this
morning, Ho made determined as
sault on ,bhe Bqer positions at Coles
burg in which all his available artil.
lary, cavalry aud infantry wsre en-
gagged.
In his official report issued yesterday
Of the repulse last Thursday Of the
Boer attack on his lsft faux, General
French says that the enemy's evident
object was to reopen communication
with Bactu. He says also tact Bosrs
were yesterday disclosed five miles
north Of Colesbsrg, located in fresh
position, with two heavy guns, and
that they were still in force to the
southeast Of the town.
Though the strlngsncy of the coaaor
continued sufficient facts have come to
London to suggest that an important
move at the Tegula river is imminent.
General Butler is busy reconnoiter-
ing the position Of his enemy, though
one should hardly dignify any OF biz
operations with the title .sof rsconnois'
sance in force, as was done by one cor.
respondents kilograms. The most i'm,
| portant reconnaissance appears to have
been one consisting wholly Of mounted
troops with two field guns, under Lord
Dundonal, which, covered by the fire ot
some long range naval guns, made al
effort to feel the strength Of the Boer
occupying Mount Inhlawe.
The Beers are reported to have re
d piled with rife fire at long range, bu
refrained from disclosing their p1si
tions. and contented themselves with {
demonstration on the British QUITE
flank, which made the retirement o
the small force desirable.
We read also that the Bosrs had
heliograpb, presumably on mountain
top, signalling their headquarters
camp at Umbulwane during the action
I expect the Beers have a very com
plete system of signals in working OF
der to facilitate the rapid re-enforcs
ment Of threatened points by troop
now csmpsd IN central situations.
q We are told that the Tugela has fall
en-, and that the river is fordab!e at th
usual points, consequently we may as
. sumo that the bridge which the Boel
had thrown across the river had bee
restored, and also that they find n
difficulty in communicating betwee
the north and south banks.
