ago Mr. Benjaman Jordan, of this county,
went out to his negro quarters to quiet some
disturbance between his hands in regard to
the division of some corn, when one of the
negroes, Elbert Denham, became very much
enraged and fired his gun at Mr. Jordarr,
lodging the contents in his right side. Mr.
Jordan was not dead at last accounts, but

The Prince.— A Graphic Picture of Ms
’lgiiness and His Staff. —Prince Aufchur
is described by the Boston Post as the pern
feet picture of an English “swell,” exactly
as represented by the late John Leech in
the pages of the London Punch. His whisk*
ers are of the long blond kind, full wavy,
and abundant. His features are rather
sharp than otherwise; his nose is aquiline,
and in statue, though rather above the
medium height, he yet bears a strong resem
blance to his brother, the Prince of Wales.
His dreg© smacks of St. James street, Lon*
don, (not St. James street, Montreal), and
he has the precise, gentleman-like, correct
appearance of those loungers in Hyde Park,
who ogle the ladies over the railing of RoU
ten Row, or hold sly converse with pretty
anonymas in pretty broughams. To par
ticularly, he wore an olive-green broad
cloth surtout, dark pantaloons, a standing
collar, light scarf, and on his head a black
silk hat was rakishly cocked ; gloves and
cane completed his whole get-up. He ap>
pears to have a careless, easy, affable way
about him that seems natural and not as
sumed.
All members of his suite are nobs of the
the first water. Col. Elphinstone is a man
of the highest fashion, of large forture, a
fast liver, and well knewn in London and
Montreal for gallantry, prodigality and
courage. He i p \ cool duelist, a good sol
dier, and a thorough-paced man of the
world. In point of looks he is as prep os®
sessing as the Prince himself, arid as royal
in air and bearing ; but of course yields in
birth. Not eo tall as the Prince, he is more
foppish in his dress; his eye is black and
peircing, his beard and moustache dark
and full. The remainder of the party were
ordinary*looking enough, and tho orod of
royalty vanished with their presence. Four
linereied footmen, regular Jeemes. of the
true yellow plush breed, brought up the’
raar.. Nothing could be more gorgeous
and impressive than their appearance in
biasing livery, hair-powdered; calves of
prodigious size, full**whiskered pompous,-
imperturbable and Sgornfdi.”

My friends we advise all to go and give Andy a fair trial, and we know
that you will go away well pleased. We have been told that in the last six
months that Mr. Webb’s trade has doubled every month; and the reason
why, this house b the only house in Thomastrn that is willing to divide
profits with the people. Ladies and gentlemen we know that if you will
give John N. Webb your trade as a great many of our friends have done in
186*9, that y6u will come out like they did, with fifty dollars * a ved and the
same amount of goods bought at Webb’s as was bought at other places
before. This is true, for we have been told by the most reliable men in Up
son County that January,-1869, they set in to deal with Webb & Johnson
one year, and that they kept a close account of what they bought 1868 and
1869, and in 1869 with Webb & Johnson they saved clear cash fifty
dollars. So I think Ladies and Gentlemen that this is quite an item.
Allow me my friends and customers to thank you for your very liberal
patronage through 1868 and 1869. I wish you a happy new year and
continuance of your liberal patronage. Mr.- W. A. Johnson with myself
promise our best efforts and services. JOHN N. WEBB,
