FROM HADDOCKS.
Notwithstanding the short crops,
and consequent dull times, the
Christmas trade was good, and will
always be. Not ihe least conspic
uous was the jug business. This
however benefits Macon almost
solely, fur they got tho money, and
we the oblivion and head-ache,
Tobo Bonner with his family of
eight left for Texas on Monday.
John Andrews joined them in Ma
con with the same destination, ideas
and intentions.
*
Frank Clark, the all-round bailiff,
collector, and farmer, has taken the
Singleton place for this y car.
One of our favorites means a sort
of Katie-bar-lhe-door-oxpression,
caused by the gush of a lady friend
who romarked that her “ma knew it
before she left home.”
Our swells returned from the par
ty at Judge Johnson’s full of lauda
tion at the good treatment of the
genial host and fair hostess. ’Tis
■whispered that one who made his
declarations too pronounced and
was rather gushing under cupid’s
inspirations, is now trying to
weather the storm incident to bonds
previously formed.
The marrjago of Mr. Charles
Moore and Mrs. Whitten took place
last week, and resulted in consign
ing an unsuccessful suitor to far
away Texas.
The usual curiosity was manifest
ed last Sunday to see and hear the
new pastor Mr Cook, who made
his first appearance at Fortville.
From tho manner in which he is
spoken of, the good will of his con
gregation is fully assured.
Numerous entertainments in the
shape of parties and social gatlier
erings have afforded much pleasure
to the young folks and those of the
olden set, who were fortunate
enough to get an “invite,” One
which we are not whom,
Miss Annie Bollc Glawson spent
Christmas vacation at home, and
with somo of her numerous friends.
A welcome is always prepared for
ono who is such a favorite.
Cary Morris with a few other en,
thusiastic fox hunters wore quito
successful in the chase this week,
A Red and Gray were brought in
to show what was accomplished. It
takes some nerve theso crispy
mornings to launch out after a pack
of hounds, but Cary is equal to the
emergency, and most generally’ re
turns with a trophy.
It was rather diaphanous for
that party who failed to return on
the afternoon train, Christmas Eve,
to say that they were left. We
have been there; but long since
learned that to lay it on the train
was trite.
Good punctuation and an absence
of typographical errors, evidences
the fact that our recent notes have
fallen to the lot of an old Jour.
Thus when we meet O. J. it will be
chapeau las.
