Seaborn Feagin is proud of bis
barber shop, and be has a right to
lie. A gentleman of thls clty told
him the other day that he bad one
of the neatest shops in the state,
and we guess lie is about right. He
is very attentive to his customers
and as he has three good barbers,
it is seldom a man has to wait to
be shaved. Everything is new,
neat and clean, and when a man
wants to be shaved in first class
style, be will always find Seaborn
ready and willing.

Saturday morning, just before

I nmjuit'tlo weeks behind. Otlr
social circle bas had several waves
since I last wrote, and now the
young people are engaged in the
dcltgbtful occupation of pluming
themsolve.s for the fall campaign.
I regard tbe season as on the verge
of openingjilthough it bas not been
definitely announced by an open
ing ball or party, but tbe openings
rarely occur until the season has
advanced somewhat.
Week before last one clement In
onr circle was electrified by the ap
pearance in our city of the Misses
Clmstiaus, ot'Cuthbcrt, and they
were the recipients of numerous at
tentions from tho young men. They
isited Miss Leila fe|der,*a cous
in, nnd other relatives. They arc
both accomplished musicians nnd
line conversationalists,and from the
manner m which they expressed
themselves, I am ledito infer.that
they thoroughly, cujpyfd their vis
it. 1 know their, friends would be
pleased to have them come again.
Miss Alice l’orter, who bad been
visiting her friends here, left on
the same train with the Misses
Obaslians. I am at a loss to know
how to express my pleasure with
her. She is one of the sweetest
girls that I am acquainted, and her
unaffected sincerity in tbe interest
she takes in those around her makes
warm friends of tlioso whom she
meets. ' ' :
Tuesday night of last week Miss
Katie Wheatley gave a little party
to a number of her lady friends who
are soon to leave for school in tbe
Xorth. It was a pleasant occasion,
and I understand was much enjoy-
ed.
I have heard many rumors about
some fashionable September wed*'
dings, but am inclined to tbe belief
that they are ail myths. Of course
I may bo mistaken about this, but
it hardly seems possible to me that
anyone would want to marry so
soon in the season. I know I would

night at the residence of W. L.

know best./ I was talking to one
of the prominent gentleman mem

advanced some very original ideas
about it, which if be could get the
club to adopt, would, in my esti
mation, prove conductve of much
good. Ho proposes that the club
should enlarge its sphere some
what, and take up n light line of
character representation. After a

Harrell-Hnncock affair: The only
“daughter of Bryant" in this city
is my wife. A boy Was going by
my house on Saturday evening,
about 6:30 o’cloek, with some
flowers in his hand. My wife’s
little brother was at the gate, and
the boy carrying the flgwcrs stop

ten cents if lie would carry the
flowers to Judge Harrell’s room at
the Barlow House, which he did.

An-Odd Rainbow.
Wednesday evening of last week,
about 8:30, we witnessed one of the
most peculiar scenes wc ever saw
in the skies. A dark muss of clouds
had rolled up in the west, and it
had lieen raining, when suddenly
the moon beamed out from behind
the clouds around it, and immedi
ately a dull silver rainbow appear
ed in tbe west. It was very plain,

A Bad Case.
-Friday morning Octuvia Chris
tian, a negro girl living on Hamp
ton street, had a child born to ber,
and in order to conceal ber shame,
she threw it into a dry well that
was in the yard, with the evident
intention to be rid of it, as the well
was about 15 feet deep. This oc
curred about 3 o’cloek in the morn
ing, and later on a little negro boy
heard the child’s cries, and inform
ed some parties of the cose. Dr.
Head was sent for and the child
was taken out and cared tor.
Strange to say, it bad been ingured
but slightly, and is now doing well.
As toon as the mother is Letter,
proceedings will be begun against
her.
