 MT. Roberts said that he had no cause to complain. He said that he made money when cotton was bringing cents per pound. and despite the sea son he seldom made a poor crop and never a failure. MT. Roberts's fine stock are the admiration of every citI- Zen when he visits the city and his home and surroundings are perhaps the prettiest and most convenient in the county. Mir. Roberts can give pointers to the very best farmers in the State.
 Hay culture seems to be attracting more and more widespread attention among the farmers and large quantities are disposed of here most every day. In some sections large fields of crow foot grass Is grown especially for the purpose and the particular quality new CT fails to find a ready sale among tie citizens of the city who seem to much prtfe, 1t to that which Is shipped.
 Cotton has been coming in slowly this week owing, 1t is thought, to the decline In price. Farmers are in bet ter condition this year than ever to hold 1t and seem so inclined when ne market falls below the 10 cents notch.
 It Is highly probable that the Union Female College will close for the sea- son. Although the principals have been very diligent in working for the success of the institution. they do not feel enough encouraged with the pres ent matriculation. to continue. The City Council will perhaps take some action in the matter within the next few days.

While his wife and children attended church he rarely entered its doors. and so prejudiced the congrega- tion against him. Since his misfortune his wife had found the atmosphere of the church so chilling that she stopped attending and the congregation placed her beside her husband on Its books. But the entire marine circle captains, mates and boatswains all secuted the idea of Captain Carr's guilt. They de- clared there was some mistake and In most loyal manner visited the cap tain and swore Justify at MT. Tanning T don't know nothing" groaned the bewildered Captain Carr.

 Captain Cody had just returned from a voyage to the Pacific and had never

 He glanced at him with the air of a

 Captain Cody waxed cross and peev- l ish as he struggled with his imperfect photograph, and when a lady called to
