There is many wild ducks on the river, but little fishiog and bunting is done around here, as ev.rybody is busy. There are a great many quails and doves, which Col. E. W, Hammond night be able to kill a few to make him a little bird pie. We were all very sorry to bear of the death of our loved friend Col. N. M. ColleDS. We extend our heart felt sympathy lo his grief stricken mother aod relations, who have been left to mourn his loss. I learn that there was an old negro woman perished to death a few days ago, she bad grandboys and girls who refused to take care of her. When she would ask for something to eat they would give her water in place of food. If such be true, why should the arm of tho law not be used in such cases. It cannot be anything but death from neglect, and it is hard to lot one die from starvation because they are not abl# to wait on themselves. T. W. Do yon suffer with catarrh?
