We are having some fine weather.
 The health of this community re- mains very good. Cotton and corn is being worked out very rapidly.
 This neck of the woods has the finest prospect for a large crop for several years.
 Our postmaster's crop is so grassy that he is afraid to go in it on account of the snakes.
 That hustling George Lowe was in this locality all fused up like a porcu- pine Saturday of last week. because be has failed to get but half of suit of oyeralls so far.
 W. k. Cotton was visiting in this locality last Sunday.

 Mr. T. l.. Prewett, our road commis- soner was in this locality Tuesday, looking after the condition of the roads and bridges. He is the right man in the right place.
 Occasionally woman's face is her fortune, and her husbands misfortune. It IS not what man IS, but rather what he pretends to be, that makes him ridiculous.
 There are too many persons that at tempt to pass through the world on the reputation of their ancestors.
 A very nice and welcome rain fell here last Wednesday evening that was very acceptable to all the farmqrs in this locality.
