Call around and let me take your measure- and put you up a pair of hoots or shoes on my new Patent Lasts. W. A. JOHNSON, Ayers’ old Stand. —We see again on onr streets, our townsman H. T. Dunn, who has been North for a short time. —The recent rains have increased the whortleberry crop, and our berry hunters are happy. The last brought to market are fine. —For several day past, Mr. G. W. Fahm of this city has been lying ex tremely ill. No hopes are entertained for his recovery. —Is it that onr colored people have more energy or more money?—They seem to be the ouJy ones doing any building around town. They deserve credit. —“Northern hay” is what a Mend claims to be raising in his garden be" tween his corn rows. The yield will be fine, we think, but can’t say much for the corn. —Among the strangers in onr city for a week past, we wore pleased to meet Mr. Amos Morse of Alabama, who was here on a visit to his sisters, M s C. F. and W. J.‘ Way. —We must again remind some onr delinquents that they have failed to hand us their subscription for the pa' per for the first volume. Subscriptions of nearly all for the 2nd year are now due. If yon hav° not settled, please do so. —The magnificent high tides for the past few days, oocuring just about the rising and setting of the sun, offe r delightful opportunities to those wish ing to indulge in a salt water bath- Numbers, we find, are availing them* selves. —An election for Alderman to fill vacancy occasioned by resignation of I. N. Shannon is called for July 1st. Truly hope onr people will not lie id * in this matter, but b? up and around, looking out a good man. We need such now as much as ever. —Grubb, of the Gazette, wants a railroad to Darien, You are right, brother; your place is a hard one t 0 get to and from. Railroad communi cation with the outer world would bring many things within your reach. The morals of your town, however, would have it to pay for—those circus, es, yon know, and such like. —We note with pleasure the present arrangement of our Post Office. Mi” N. is now ready to serve the public not only with their mail, but anything wanted in the stationary lino. Friend Snow, too, ever obliging, stands ready to assist, and also to furnish you with a fine Havanna of excellent flavor— remember, however, the ladies request that you do not spit on the floor. —We again offer our colums to the public for communications of a gener al character looking to the good of our place, county, or section. Ventilate your ideas; give your neighbor th e benefit of your thought. All of our exchanges come to ns teeming with communications from citizens, aU looking to the general good. Wake np then, Glynu countians, and do likewise. —That subscriber who agreed to pay for his paper “in rice when bar, vested,” to-lay informs us that hi 8 rice crop was so poor and the season so fine for “slip taters,” that he had ploughed up his rice and planted “ta. ters.” So there go our hopes for an other twelve months to come, —Oar city has been decked for the past two weeks in her richest dress. The fine showers we have had have washed away the dust and put new life in every article of vegetation. As we strolled around town a few afternoons since and enjoyed the see* nery, we were vain enough to say* Surely there is none fairer than on r •‘City by the Sea.” Our groves and grass plats are truly elegant. —The brig Laura Gertrude, of the Littlefield <fc Tison packet line to New York, arrived in port a few days since with her usual good freight, and wilj soon be off again with a full cargo of ship stores, etc. Messrs. L. & T., we think, merit all the patronage they re ceive, and much more, too, for it is to such men we must look to build up a business for us at this point. Whilst others have croaked, they have work" | ed, hence the difference. j Light.—It is claimed that “light , comes from the East," but with th e | present “light” before ns, we should j say that a few rays are now about to I proceed from the North—at least, we 1 so judge from preparations he is ma king in front of the Post Office to-day, ;n the shape of a new street lamp. Fire Company. The Oceanics turned out in force last Monday evening for drill, and pre. si-nted quite a pleasing spectacle.— their fiery suits contrasting well with the rich green drapery of Nature every where visible. We wish our colored citizens would organize a company and secure on en gine, for they would take great pride in it, we believe, and muster strong > and should the dread monster ever call them forth, they would render most excellent service and be a real credit to our growing city. Come, what say our colored citizens to thj 8 move? Entertainment at Mrs. Barku- loo’s. “Man proposes but God disposes” of events. This was truly verified last evening in the matter of the above en. tertainment. The good ladies of the “Presbyterian Aid Society” had made ample preparations, and a large num. her of citizens were “booked” for the evening, but just us n igbt came on, a dark cloud sprang up in the East and soon spread over the entire heavens- Tho rain soon began to desceud f which made things rather damp for the average pleasure seeker. Quite a nice little party assembled, however, and had a nice time, doing all in their power to keep the delicious cream from spoiling. The ladies could not have found a more* suitable place for their little party, the house being so well adapted to the work. ‘‘Give the Devil his Due.” So we say to the unbelievers who sourly hinted that the article in on r last, signed “Devil," was not gotten up by the lad, but written by another and published for effect. Not so, ye cionkers; he wrote not only that bnfc others, without even a suggestion from any one. Give him his due. Inflation vs. Inflation. In a lengthy article of our contem porary of the Appeal of June 17th, he talks up inflation big and strong, urg ing it as the measure to bring about the solution of our great financial troubles. He contends that there is not enough money in the land for the wants of the people. Now brother, right there we don’t agree. You cry for inflation of Greenbacks—we cry for inflation of goods. Just, give us more for our money, and the great end is achieved. These things are settling themselves. A few years ago, when money was plentiful, calico was 15cts. per yard, now money is scarce and yon can get the same article at Bets. This is the idea. Inflate the goods—not the mon ey;—encourage our people to produc e more, and we would all soon find mon ey plentiful, for a dollar would then get considerably more than it does now. We are “agin” inflation (of Green backs, we mean). We have passed through one season of it in our life, and don't wish any more. We stil] have visions of ’64 and ’66. when Con federate money was so plentiful that everybody had great rolls and wads of it stuffed about their clothes. Noth, ing, at all, pretended to sell for less than $1.00, and the simplest commod ities brought $100.00. Now we fear a repetition of this, or something akin to it, in case of inflation of Green backs, hence onr cry for inflation of goods instead. Presidential. 1 Hays, of Ohio, for President, and WheeJer, of New York, for Vice Pres* ident, are the nominees of the Repub lican party for the coming campaign. It is thought there will be a tight race if the Democrats get out good men. We are not prophet enough to say who will come out ahead, but feel sure of one thing: In either event, our polit. ical condition wilt be fur better than New Advertisements. MUTTON! MUTTONI : MUTTON!
