rent issues, The Walton News and The
Monroe Messenger will be consolidated,
these-papers having been bought by
Hon. Joseph H. Felker, and from this

The Messenger was established some
eighteen months ago, and under the ed

has had some success. The News has
for a number of years been the official
gazette uf Walton county. Colonel

editor and proprietor, and under his able
and fearless management The News has
few equals in the ranks of weekly jour
nalism. Mr. William F. Upshaw, who
has been editor for the past few months,
will continue at the head of the editorial
department. Colonel Felker, who has
purchased and will now consolidate the
two papers, is at present the representa
tive of Walton county in the legislature.
He was connected with The News sev
eral years ago. The people confidently
hope that the new paper will be an en
tire success.

Kuarllnh ns Written In lornajr,
Here is a good specimen' of English
as she is written abroad. We find it in
St Martin’s-le-Grand, the postoffioe
magazine:
“The hotel for tourists on Turtegro
(owner, Mr. Igar Oiene), is laying by
the foot of the eminent ‘SkagastoTstin-
der, * the largest field in Jotunheimen
for topmounters. The best leaders are
to be had. It is the best place for coun
try layers. Different interesting places
for summer trips. Nearest stopping
place for Bteamers—Skjolden. Recom
mands as station for passage to Lorn—
Gndbraudsdalen. ”
“Topmounters,” as a description of
the climbing fraternity, is decidedly
good. But what is a “country layer?’
