Ephitaph for a liar:
In life he lied while, he had.hreath,
And strange to say, lies still in death,
For a potter :
On earth he often turned clay to deb,
But now he's turned to clay h.mself.
For a musical director :
In beating time his life Was passed,
But Time has beaten him at last.
For a brewer:
A well-known brewer lieth here ;
''His ails are o’er—he's on “ his bier.”
For a scalemaker:
His eighs were ways of pleasantness
In all life’s fitful dream :
He struck a balance with the world,
And then—he kicked the beam.

Excursion to PhlihoUj.
A Gaia Day with tiih Y'ucni; Foi k.
Asa prelude to (he usual

light of Spring itnluco ns to inriulge‘
in, lira young ladies and goiVle.nen
uf Hamilton, with some rf tho :Vi • J>-
'/oiiiig young Indies ami otic of
La Grange’s most fascinating charts,
paoKcd their baskcis and shouldered
their guns for a march to Palmetto
creek, Monday morning.
After a walk of an hour, in the gay
est of spirits, the destination was
reached with sparkling eyes and
flushed cheeks, in joyous anticipation
of a day’s p'easure. , 'Keating, and se
lecting a suitable place to spread the
table, the appetites, which had been
astonishingly sharpened by the walk,
vvdre.soon appeased by a delightful
eolla ionin which each was indebted
to the other for wbat was considered
the choicest bits, for all shared equal
ly in providing it.
After “a target shooting by the
joung men, the target being a pickle
jar thrown into the air, during which
performance Mrs. J.T. \Viiliams sent
In a jar of tho coolest, trediest, and
nicest milk iirmginablr, for which the
party tender their thanks, the compa
tiy divided into couplets and quartette
intent upon enjoying themselves
to,.the utmost of their ability.
Four of the party climbed the
fence and went bird hunting—one
young lady and gentleman having
laid a wager that they could kill more
birds is a given length of time than
the other couple —and lift the
others to fish or talk love as
they might selce*. TANARUS! e hunters
rambled through briars, climbed
fences, shooting birds and gathering
flowers for two hours, when they re
turned to the place of rendervons, to
call and fire signals in vain, for none
of their companions were to be seen.
The wood- and creek were searched
for some time, and at last the crown
of a hat was espied peering up from un
der the bank, and an inspection proved
•hat another hat was in close proxim
ity, each shading a pair of unusually
bright eyes. A young lady and gen
tleman had established themselves
upon a ledge of-rand belosv a steep
bank, and had become so intent up
on—fishing we ’presumed, that they
could tell ns nothing of the other
parties, “but supposed they wore fish
ing farther down.”
After-a fruitless search the trio
miubi their wny back to town, H'laro
they arrived before sunset, tired, sun
burnt, and happy in the consciousness
of haviifg captured three fish—
measuring, in all, five inches—and
killed ten birds which might possibly
weigh two ounces, and to find that
the others, by another route, had
placet ded them but a lew minutes.
It was one of the most pleasant
days with the Hamiltonians that they
have spent in sometime, and pleasant
memories connec'ed with the Pa'—
010*10 excursion will still linger
a 'ouftd us.
Almost a Catastrophe. —As
Messrs. James Griffin and Felix Jen
kins were rising along together in a
sulky last Monday, by some accident,
the}' allowed one of the wheels to run
into a rut in the road, w hen Mr. Grif
fin lost his balance and fell out ; the
ground caught him, however, and lie
received no injury, The horse they
wore driving became frightened and
dashed forward for a short distance
un il he reached a deep, black mud
hole; here lie made a short turn, and
threw Mr. Jenkins, head foremost,
into tbemud. lie sustained no inju
ry, but was considei ably shaken up,
and emerged front the black pool a
muddier, if not a madder man than
when he was thrown into it. We
suppose it was not so much the fall
that was the cause of the shock as the
sudden stop.
Thornton cfc Acee have established
a large hat store, next door to their
clothing honse, and are selling hats
wonderfully cheap. We will tell our
readers all about them next week;
and in he meantime if you wisti any
thing in their line, you cannot do
better than give them a call.

Letter 'From Waverley.
Waverlt Haal, }
April 18, 1870 \
Dear Journal. —A “few lines”
from this sect.on may not be out of
place, therefore, I will give you a few
of the on dits, although there is but
little news of general interest to com
municate. In the gennral, the citi
zens of this district are composed of
shrewd, honest, thriving business
men, who are fully alive to the tunes
and their interest, and are ready to
dispense a liberal hospitality to those
who come within the limits. Wav
erly has a flourishing school under
the charge of Professor J. G. Cal
houn, who has run it up to fifty stu
dents. Professor Calhoun has a fine
reputation as a teacher, and never
fails to meet w ith successs wherever
he goes.
Our farm<*r3 are preparing, as wc'l
as the weather and l-he lateness of Ifu
season will allow, for planting. Ot
course it will be out of the question
to give an accurate estimate, as yet,
of the relat.ive area of corn and cot
ton that will be planted; though, it is
the general opinion that the area of
corn planted will not exceed that of
last season. Stnidl grain has been
planted largely, end the prospect i
very fluff*-: tig > a,, increased vie and
of wheat, and o.gs. The late cold
snap has rendered it necessary to re
plant the coin, Imt it has sustained
no material dam tge.
Dr. L. W.Stanford, who has been
attending tin dical lectures in Align
ta, has returned, and we v. ish the
}outig D >ctor munh success in hi*

Lending Newspapers.
Th' l man who lends his wife to a
neighbor 1- not more benevolent than
he who makes a practice of lending
his newspaper week after week to a
regular borrower. The lender may
not know it, hut he is the worst ene
my the editor or publisher has, for
he keeps from him the patronage or
support which, if given by those who
read would enable the
editor to employ nioie help, take
more rest and make his paper much
better than he can afford to when hi
hst of paying patrons is small and
thoughtless.
