HEBE AND THEBE !
A fine rain visited our town
last night,which was much needed,
An interesting debate was held
in the court house on last Fri
day night, between Dr. J, P.
Moye, Maj. J. H. Hlolsey and W.
P, Edwards. After many strong
arguments on both sides, the de
lusion was rendered in f&ver of Dr,
Moye. We congratulate him in
his success.
We return thanks to Mr. N, A
Cooper of Reynolds, for a nice
bucket of the finest plums we have
Seen this season. They were of
the Chickesaw variety.
Watermelons are now plentiful
in Butler; three Very fine loads
were brough to town last Friday.
The average price of which was
one pent per pound.
We can but return our many
thanks to the Executive Commit

cordial invitation to attend the
annual commencement of Monroe
Female College, which fakes place
on Wednesday, the tenth inst.
Very sorry it will not be conven
ient lor us to attend.
Sudden Death.
OUr town was greatly shocked
on yesterday morning by the sad
intelligence of the death Of Mr.
James M. Jones, who died at his
residence in this place on Monday
morning of appaplexy. On Sun
day evening previous, Mr, Jones
was in his usual health up to
about the hour of ten o’clock. He
lingered through the night and
died about six o’clock A. m. Thus
has passed away one of our best
and most useful citizens An hon
orable, upright and high-toned
geutleman. He had hosts of
warm true-hearted friends, and so
far as we know, had not a single
enemy. His family has the sym-
paty of the entire community in
this sad dispensation of Provi
dence, We learn that the deceas
ed will be buried in this town this
morning at nine o’clock with Ma
sonic honors, of which fraternity
he was an honored member.
