Well- just catch ’em all. If you want good pictures, cheap, call on Mr. Green, at tho court house. A nice piece of buffalo moat was sent to Mr. Philpot last week from Texas. Girls, don’t ho afraid to work.— Ruth gleaned in the field and got just as good ti Bo-uz anybody. Some think, in the event tho war iu Europe continues, cotton, next fall, will not sell at any price. Tho Chorokeo Iron Company will receivo more new goods next week. Cull und hoo them. Tho steam road wagon is now mak- iug regular trips from tho funmeo to the ore bank. It is a success. Something terrible is going to hap pen. Dr, Joe Liddell lias bought a great big g.dd ring. Oh, that beautiful sweet-scented gourd bios—wo mean honey suckle— and oh, do lot's take a ramble. Henry King, the “phatest man out” wanted to make love last Monday, but the young lady wouldn’t "tuke a ram ble” out to the verandah ’cause yotrr chiel was there. The Cherokee Iron Co., are con stantly making additions to their stock of goods. Cash buyers will find it to their advantage to exam ine beforo purchasing elsowlioro.

Ain’t I right.” The boys haven't decided who the belle of the moon-light pic-uic was yet. If they don’t decide by next Friday,your Chiel will tell. Wo know, but we feel a delicacy in articulating. Now ye that have Jull razors, and don’t love to shave can rejoice, Joe j the Barber is in our midst, and is lo- j cated at Vann’s palace confectionery ! store. We know Joe, he is a cleaver darkey, and a polite and obliging bar ber. Has the late heavy advance in all kinds of provisions, br end stuffs, etc., caused the farmers to stop and think ? If it takes about four pounds of cot ton to pay for one pound of bacon next Spring, they will be apt to stop and think then. Better reflect now, gentlemen. are invited, and we think, have uc- j oepted and will bo them. We had the pleasure of eating din-1 uer at the Allen House last Monday. And just such a dinner, oh, mi. You see, we had oyster soup to commence with, turkey, veg—but its no use to umko you hungry telling you about it, hut wo would advise tho traveling public, when they visit Cedartowii, to always inqniro for tho Alien Houso whore they will always find a hearty welcome and everything olso pertain ing to a first class hotel. Go to tho festival next Thursday night. Bright-eyed beauties will ho there. Wo take off our hat and got right square dowu ou our knees to Mr. Boh Vann, for a pitcher of tho most delicious lager. Mr. Vann is just two | doors from Huntington’s where ho i keeps the most choice confectioneries, I cigars, pipes, tobacco, ale and porter, and fresh lager always on draught. Remember this is no place for loafers or drunkards, hut a neat, first-class, pleasant resort. And now Mr. Vann, we fill our glasses, and in the lan guage of Rip Van Winkle, "hero's to you, und your families, und may you live long und brosper,” Churrli Notice. May 10, 1877.
